I use to got to island spices all the time from age 10 to 24. I moved back 10 years later, and when I went to order my food the woman cashier and man that was sitting down. Was looking silly because I was asking about the drive thru they had 8 years ago. The lady took my order didn't wait for me to pay . She just walked to the back without saying anyhing. I waited 10 minutes for her to come back. Iasked the guy where did she go an he just started laughing. So I left and will not be going back.

Better be brute and early or you’ll miss the best oxtail in SD. A great mom and pop shop that never fails on an adventure of flavor. But if you arrive to late night not be any left.

I am visiting from Maryland and wanted some good carribean food. When I tell you I picked a winner with Island Spice Jamaican Restaurants!. Beef Pattie was amazing and you can tell it's made fresh. The curry chicken rice and peas. Perfectly made and seasoned. I want to thank you for making such an amazing meal!

The food and service is always good and has the same consistency every time I have good. I have been to Jamaica and can say their flavors are the same from the jerk chicken, to the rice and peas and vegetables. I sometimes even purchase the jerk sauce they sell there.

Really really good authentic Jamaican food. Large portion & great flavors. I got the curry goat with extra plantains for $23 and it was 10/10. Highly recommend

Stopped by while I was in town for a conference, and let me say First of all the customer service was on point, even was asked if I wanted hot tea while I waited for the Goat to finish cooking. And Boy was I not disappointed. Even though they didn't have the white flour dumpling that I wanted the cornmeal dumpling didn't miss a beat. Next time im bringing the whole family with me. Also great curb appeal, kinda makes you feel a little at home.

This was the worst Caribbean food I’ve had in my life . Curry chicken had no flavor and was so dry it was incomprehensible. Stew chicken flavor was alright but also dry … never will eat here again.
