I'm impressed with the flavor of the food. They do have a problem substituting neck bones for oxtail. I hope they know that they not only look different but taste different. I do recommend the food. I like getting what I pay for. Ask me if I am willing to accept a substitute. Don't treat me like I'm stupid. My taste buds are very delicate and have discerned various taste across this country.
The worst part about this place is the wait. We walked in and ordered curry chicken with rice and beans and a side of plantains and then an order of jerked chicken with the same sides. It had to take at least 40 mins. I personally thought the curry was On point. And the plantains were so sweet, they just hit perfect! Maybe it was perfect timing but this place was spot on tonight

Island Spice offers delicious food with great customer service. The brown stewed chicken, rice, beans, and cabbage dish was flavorful, although the chicken was a bit dry. The portion sizes are generous, allowing for two meals in one. The oxtail and jerk chicken dinner were described as amazing, perfect for visitors in the area. The restaurant is recommended for its lovely staff and incredible food, making it a must-visit spot for both locals and travelers alike. Customers also enjoy the homemade ginger beer and jerk wings, finding the food tasty and satisfying. The area is small but cozy, providing a comfortable place to eat, whether dining in or taking out. The staff are friendly and patient, making every visit pleasant. Despite some oily food and fried plantains that aren’t as crispy as expected, the overall experience is positive, especially for those who love good Caribbean flavors. The curry goat and oxtails are highly praised, with the oxtails tasting fantastic even if a bit tough. Island Spice continues to be a favorite spot for flavorful meals and friendly service.
