“The do called "inclusive" atmosphere is really just an owner who hates everyone who has different views. If your social or political views are woke, you aren't welcome. Spend your money elsewhere. This guy is an idiot.“

“The outdoor patio was perfect for our Sunday brunch and our 18th Anniversary. We’ve celebrated many occasions at All Spice and have always had a stellar experience with the staff and the food. Our table felt intimate — we were sharing a large space with four other tables, appropriately distanced. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Again, all Covid-19 compliant. The food, oh the food! The Dutch baby was perfectly cooked and the fruit fillings were gorgeous. The chicken sandwich was out of this world. The Mimosa and hard apple cider beverages were on point. We always love our meals at All Spice and this time was no exception. It’s a total gem!“

“We had an absolutely lovely experience here! Came for my boyfriend’s birthday, everyone was friendly and attentive. Fantastic high end ambience. The food was almost too beautiful to eat and every one of us thoroughly enjoyed our entrees. One of our guests said it was the best spaghetti he had ever had! The mushroom risotto was perfection. I had the Chilean sea bass and WOW! The salmon was also amazing. The other two guests had roasted chicken and hangar steak… I didn’t get to try them but they looked amazing and everyone cleaned their plate even though we were full lol! We will absolutely be back. Highly recommend!! 5 stars ⭐️“

“Went Friday at 630pm with reservations. We had to wait 15 minutes. We were finally seated and enjoyed a birthday dinner of Prime Rib.
Our server, Savanah was trying to be attentive but she was slammed with some contrary diners who needed a lot of help. She did her best and apologized for her delayed response. We didn't really notice, she was doing great!
The Prime Rib dinners arrived as requested with the meat properly served as requested. The medium was just past pink. The medium rare was pink. Perfection.
I'd go after 7pm when the lines were gone and tables were available. The service was very good for such a large restaurant/ bar.
The food is good comfort food with plenty of variety for every taste.“

“I had the Chicken Mix Bowl with the smokey chipotle sauce and it was AMAZING. I am allergic to dairy, gluten, and soy so being able to not worry about that with my meal was so nice. I also have ARFID (avoidant restrictive food intake disorder) and have a really hard with certain textures, usually chicken is really hard for me to eat but I had no issues with this chicken!! The texture was consistent all the way through, pulled apart really easily, and was just overall amazing. The portions are really good and the food is very flavorful. I'm really happy with my meal. Thank you guys for the amazing food. I highly recommend this place!!“

Creme Brulee Cheesecake

“We had such a great meal at Marketplace Café! After the long shopping the arugula and prosciutto pizza was amazing—the crust was perfectly baked, very interesting combination of flavors. For the kids we ordered the mac and cheese, and it came out creamy, cheesy (they loved it!). We finished with the strawberry shortcake, and honestly it’s the best I’ve ever had— fresh strawberries and a buttery biscuit that was just perfect. Great food, friendly service, and a cozy spot inside Nordstrom“
