Spice

Si quieres buena Comida china por un precio barato, necesitas probar el Restaurante Spice. Esta en el Upper West Side y es fácil de llegar. Puedes tomar el autobús numero siete o puedes caminar aquí en 89^th y Amsterdam. Todas las personas aman este restaurante, y vas a amarlo también.
La primera cosa que observas es el ambiente sucio. Es pequeño y hay solo tres mesas. Tiene muchas luces iluminadas ademas. Cuando caminas al mostrador y empiezas a hablar con el mesero piensas en una palabra… grosero. El servicio es siempre grosero y nadie sabe por que. Otra cosa mala es que puede estar muy lleno, pero es por una buena razón…

!La comida es estupenda! Todas las comidas son riquísimas. El pollo, el cerdo, el camarón, todas las comidas son deliciosas. Incluso el olor es bueno. Eso no es todo…
!El precio es estupendo también! Todas las cosas son muchas baratas. El precio por cada persona es solo siete dolares. Si ordenas de once de la mañana a cuatro de la tarde todas las comidas son! cinco dolares! Y con tu compra de diez dolares o mas, tienes un refresco gratis. La mejor cosa en el menu es probablemente el pollo de General Tso. Comelo, sera la mejor comida que tienes en tu vida. Y tienes que probar el Spring Roll, es muy delicioso. Spice ademas tiene buenas bebidas. Por ejemplo su Iced Tea es magnifico. Y estalo en una taza grande: pero la mejor parte es que es solo un dolar. Bebelo, es asombroso. Este restaurante es apto para todas personas; hay opciones por todas las dietas.
Por un lado, el ambiente y el servicio son así-​así, pero por otra lado, la comida es asombrosa y el precio es excepcionalmente. En total no comas su comida aquí, tienes para llevar. Esta evita los meseros groseros y el ambiente malo y justo te llega la comida asombrosa. Así ven aquí, ?A que estas esperando?

Ugh. Nasty. I was walking home from the movie theater and thought I would give it a try. Would’ve been better to order over the phone — then I would not have seen orange chicken and dumplings prepared from freezer bags. Glompy, doughy pre made dumplings («now with mystery meat!») and encrusted, gooey Orange peel chicken. Just say no.

We ordered pork fried rice and chicken and broccoli in garlic sauce. The food was good. The rice could have had more seasoning but overall the food was good.

This chinese place is your typical chinese take out. Starting from the rude person on the other end of the phone, taking my order to the ridiculously wait time for the food. (50 mins for delivery and I was informed 30mins) After the delivery man arrived, he yelled for additional tip stating the weather was «too cold for $ 4» We gave him an additional dollar. To sum things up, we will never order from here again.

Undisclosed $ 13 delivery minimum & $ 1 delivery fee (the menu does not state these policies anywhere.). Flavorless vegetable soup. Shamrock green dough of steamed vegetable dumplings lumpy & falling apart. Moo shoo vegetable came with 2 rice covered Mexican tortillas and watered down hoisin. NEVER AGAIN… AVOID!!!

Ordered from here twice… both times ordered the shrimp with lobster sauce, wonton soup, egg roll, vegetable lo mein, and bean curd in Szechuan style. The lo mein and bean curd were good both times. The egg roll was good. The wonton soup was tasty but so cheap with the wontons…5 in a quart… normally get that many in a pint! The shrimp with lobster sauce was good the 1^st time and awful this time. Totally bland and flavorless. Added salt, soy sauce, and hot pepper flakes, but still pretty bad! So I would say the place is inconsistent and average at best!

Your average Chinese take out. I’d skip it unless I couldn’t walk a few blocks up for a better take out place.

Food was greasy, sloppy and drenched in sauce. It took more than 45mins to deliver even though I was literally right down the block from the store. The delivery guy also demanded a bigger tip, and started to curse at me in Chinese when I refused.

The food is good. Everyone can be better with food. I give them 5 stars because of their service!!!
The actually care about their customers! I love ordering from people who don’t nickel and dime, and give a …
Five stars overall for the place!

Unbelievably inept and rude. I would love to rate the food, but it never was delivered to me. I put specific but simple instructions about what buzzer to ring on my GrubHub order, and the delivery guy apparently just ignored that. When he couldn’t reach me by phone (I had left it in the other room for a few minutes, my bad I guess), he just left.
When I called to tell the restaurant that the guy never even tried my buzzer despite my simple delivery instructions, the employee kept talking over me and then finally just hung up on me. A nice female employee called me back later, but by then, I made other plans.
At least I was able to get my money back since I ordered through a third party.

Food was bland I ordered the lunch special lo main and rice L 24. They gave me enough lo main for a 3 year old no veggies and then got mad when I went back to ask for the rice she was so nasty I did not ask for a ¼ order of lo main I asked for the lunch special mines the attitude and again after 3 buck sauce and 3 soy sauce food was still bland

Pretty good food/​price (especially for Manhattan). Very filling and flavorful. Not the best service. Waitstaff can be forgetful/​neglectful of customers. Delivery was on-​time and very convenient. Would recommend if anyone was craving Thai food for the area.

Ordered shrimp lo mein and Sesame chicken with white rice and brocolli, which tasted horrible. Food was so bland and tasteless, they barely put any carrots or onions or scallions. What a shame. Never ordering for take out again! And to top it off the delivery guy demanded a tip from me! The nerve of these people with their disgusting food!

Food is good, not great. I order from here all the time tough because they are really fast, and cheap. Probably they best bang for your buck of any delivery chinese place. Its not the best, but its very good, and again very fast, I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Great pork fried rice. The garlic chicken dish is incredible and all very reasonably priced. Best Chinese food in the UWS

Yes, they deliver to 190^th St! That being said, I gave this restaurant a try and ordered their lunch special. It’s nothing fancy but it is much better than any of the local options. Although it was rather cold outside, the food got here at the perfect temperature (if not too hot) and they delivered faster than the local restaurants. WIll definitely order from them again.

Good lunch special at $ 6.25: egg drop soup + pork fried rice + sesame chicken. The chicken was crispy & moist (though not too much sesame flavor). The rice was tasty & the soup came extra hot. Hubby’s general tso was crispy, moist, spicy.
Good food + great price + fast delivery = 4 stars

Good quality Chinese food for an affordable price!
I ordered Roast Pork Noodle Soup, Sesame Chicken and JUMBO shrimp with Chinese Vegetables from Spice over Grubhub. It arrived on time, with an EXTRA soda.
I was very pleased with my order, the food was exceptionally good. I’d like to point out that it is very difficult finding sesame chicken for under $ 10 without a lunch special. We ordered dinner, and our meals were 5 – 6 dollars. They all came with rice as well. The quality of the food was surprisingly good. It was not overcooked, the sauce it was in was also not too thick and goopy either.
The only reason why I did not give them 5 stars is because the roast pork noodle soup was not as good as I hoped. I was not a fan of the noodles. They were dried out and needed a good soaking in the broth before eating. Unfortunately, the broth was not hot when it arrived here. I am not that upset about this though because I can jut throw the whole thing in a pot and heat it up on the stove (though, obviously, we shouldn’t have to do that).
Another thing I’d like to point out is that they are located in the Upper West Side YET they deliver as far up as Washington Heights! (But, with that being said, the soup will not be hot when it arrives, only nuke warm. So that kind of sucks.)
Butttt, quality of the food and their ingredients is still superb enough where I would order here often!

Ironically, the food I got lacked a lot of «spice’ — it was probably the most flavorless, bland Chinese food I’ve had in a long time. That’s not always a bad thing, since most Chinese places are tasty from MSG and oil. But this was too bland — even had to add pepper to my beef dish. String beans were equally bland — did they run out of garlic and salt?
Worst of all, I got a stomachache from every dish. I had beef and string beans — bellyache. Then had their fried rice the next day — bellyache. So methinks there might be an issue with cleanliness /​freshness of food?
The good thing is that they do give you the Cokes with every order (I got 2!) and they have small /​large dish sizes for individuals. But for large dishes, the price is pretty close to Ollies or something.
Was worth a try, but definitely going back to Ollies for my next Chinese delivery. Too bad.

Tasty, fast, cheap, fresh and across the street from home base — score.
I like that you can order small and large portions — the small portion fed me just right w/​out feeling gross and fat like you sometimes feel after gorging out on Chinese food.
I love that they cook your order AFTER you order… there isn’t food laying around under heat lamps. It’s fresh. We’ll be back. Oh and you get 2 free sodas when you spend $ 20 ;) I love free gifts.
**ask for chopsticks if you want them as they are not included in your bag ** — tip from white girl ;)

Yummy, quick, greasy. A Grub Hub stand-​by for when I am starving and broke… their delivery minimum is only $ 6!
Tonight I ordered the beef with string beans and garlic sauce combo thingy. It came with pork fried rice and an egg roll. Even though they describe it as a «small» portion… it’s pretty large. Easily two meals, or good to share between two people.
The pork fried rice didn’t have any egg in it. =(
But it did have lots of tasty bits of pork, peas and carrots!
The garlic sauce on the string beans and beef was pretty generic tasting… but good nonetheless.
I’ll probably be ordering from them again!
