well it appears from the previous 2 posts that spice hasnt gotten much better. the meal took forever and a day and when it came out, unsurprisingly it was cold. where did this “chef” go to school ? VOTECH the meals look slightly better than my highschool lunches. the “garnishes” were laughable and the flavor was non-existant. lol, and the “chef-guy” was in the dining room yelling at one of the wait staff AGAIN. seems to be a pattern there. maybe if he spent more time in the kitchen overseeing his employees and less time harassing the wait staff the meals would be worth the small fortune they’re charging. but the icing on the cake was when we were leaving and the “chef” was out front, I guess on a smoke break and asked us how our meal was. when I looked at him he had sweat all over his face and he wreaked of alcohol. one of the girls i was with said, ok. then he got this look on his face like he was gonna explode. so we just walked away. the owner should keep this guy on a leash or find someone that can do the job. i’ve heard that they go through employees like water there and i can sure see why. we def won’t be going back and from the crowds at night looks like a lot of other people agree.

Upon entering Spice, I observed the head chef screaming and embarrasing the hostess to “answer him when he is speaking to her”. I have never seen such a terrified look on a girls face in my entire life. My meal took forever, not to mention it looked pre- cooked. I had a window seat right inside of the door near a computer, and over heard the manager screaming at a waitress that she has to pay for a small mess up she didnt mean to hit on the computer. wait wait, here comes the topping! A DEAD! DEAD cockroach in the mens bathroom! I was appauled! Management seemed horrible and I will not return to this place again! Do yourself a favor, and pick somewhere else!

Last night my partner and I had dinner at Spice. Not only do the prices seem to be rising but the quality of the food is diminished. It was approaching 9:00 pm so we ordered simple salads, the Crabacado and Grecian Chicken Salad. The Crabacado salad had 4 small slices of avocado and I defy their management to show me where the crab was! Not wanting to make a scene I was resolved not to go there again, I could make a much better crab salad at home by getting a recipe off of the Food Network!
When the food arrived we still had no utensils. Now for the fun part, when the bus boy came to clear the table he spilled the remainder of my salad dressing all over me! I realize anyone can make a mistake and to his credit he apologized twice, however when I came out of the men’s room (which looked like it had been victimized by a frat party) the bus boy and waitress were at their station laughing.
BAD CHOICE! I paid the bill and left but am determined to contact the owner. Things in Harrisburg will never change without action.

Well, I am surprised. I really enjoyed Spice. I honestly have stayed away from this restaurant for so long due to all the negative comments. I have been given suggestions to go to every place under the sun in central pa but Spice.
I think Spice deserves a 2nd chance. We all know Harrisburg is learning the ways of the restaurant. I believe Spice has finally worked out its kinks and has its hat back in the race.
Although the service is a little slow the food was worth the wait- and who can pass up 38ounce Margritas! Whoa!
If you are looking for a laid-back south beach way of life, leave your rat race and park here for an evening. Ciao!
