Amazing food. Got me some stewed chicken with rice and peas. Rice n peas wasn't dry, wasn't saggy, it was just rice. That fall off the bone stew chicken brought me back home. Compliments to the chef!

Ive tried many jamaican spots not only in new haven but many other towns in CT aswell. Island Spice 🏝️ has the best Jamaican food in Connecticut.

Shoutout to all the staff at Island Spice

If it was possible to give this restaurant zero star, I would order my food online and they didn’t have what I want and did not let me know in time causing me to lose money for food I’ve never received

Food did not taste too fresh that day in which I were surprised because I had always had great experience in the past. #stillloveethefoodtho

Island Spice is an average Jamaican restaurant. The food is good. The service needs improvement.

I’m new to the area and have been visiting this place for lunch and sometimes breakfast. Their food is okay compared to most Jamaican restaurants, however they are very slow in service. It takes roughly 7-10 minutes for one small plate of food. Then an additional 2 minutes to cash out. If you are in need of food on the go quickly don’t waste your time.

They are serving beef neck, not ox tail. Every bone is a neck bone, not ox tail! I am Mad ! Over 50 for two oxtail meals with extra meat and was served neck bones! This is terrible and I was once a loyal customer but yawl not spicing the same and now ripping people off?!.

I didn't order anything simply came to pick up a meal. Worst service ever. Rude they let people cut you in line and they don't care to be friendly by upstanding just because a person comes to your shop don't mean you can take forever. They have entire conversation with people they know rather than making your plate. I will never be going here again

Authentic Jamaican food. Originally being from the islands and living in Brooklyn, a foodie paradise, I must say the food was very tasty. I recommend this spot for anyone that wants a taste of Jamaican cuisine visiting or living in the Savanna area.
