Customer Reviews
The food was excellent—full of flavor with just the right spice level. Prices were a bit on the higher side, but the generous portions made up for it. Overall, I’d definitely go back and recommend giving this place a try. The only downside was that not everything on the menu was available; I was really looking forward to trying the puff puff and meat pie. Hopefully, they’ll have them next time!
First off, I just want to say I love Spice Kitchen. But I wanted to provide this review so this spot continues the success that I wish they continue to have. And I honestly feel this can be accomplished with reviews that are constructive. So today, I was really disappointed in the quality of the Beef Suya. It was extremely dry, tasteless, and overcooked beef. Also this is my fault because I should have checked, but the Stew that was an additional cost was not included.
Purchased lunch for 2 ppl: The food was really great and I am picky about both my plaintain and chicken. The atmosphere was good atmosphere. The Mango drink was good also. The pricing was reasonable considering the taste and portion size. The service was ok neither bad or great, it was average. You can sit in or take out. I would return.
Updating my review from 5 to 3 stars as of July 2025 - I’ve been 2 more times since my initial review and each time the food has been soooo oily. My jollof was sitting in oil. Pictures as proof. I’m disappointed Food was absolutely delicious! Legitimate smoky jollof and soft beef suya with half salmon. I like that I could do half and half of the proteins. Most West African restaurants in the area disappoint but this place exceeded my expectations. Flavors were nicely balanced no excessive maggi or salt.
I brought my friends along to dine in with me. I went with the rice and stew platter this time, since I had the jollof rice on my previous visit which was absolutely delicious. However, the stew tasted a bit bitter. Unexpectedly, the owner or manager came over to our table asking for feedback. I was hesitant at first, but I eventually shared my honest thoughts about the stew. To my surprise, he immediately offered me a free plate of jollof rice and asked his staff to bring him a sample of the stew to taste for himself. I don’t usually leave reviews, but this experience really stood out. I truly appreciate a restaurant that values its customers and takes their feedback seriously. I’ll definitely be back with more friends
