I have been here for the happy hour, which is pretty good. They always have a sushi roll and cocktail for cheap. The food is okay but nothing to write home about. I don't really go outside of happy hour.
All you can ask in pan-Asian cuisine. Sushi just hits the spot. Nothing fancy.
Fabulous sushi, delicious pan-Asian selectiond, and friendly staff make Spices a neighborhood gem.
....I won't typically rate a place and base it so much off the quality of service.... but this was bad....
We walked in at 7pm, had a 20 minute wait, ok no big deal, typical for a busy Sunday night. Seated at 720, ok so far so good....
Placed drink orders at 730, ok things are kind of slow here...at 748 the tables waters finally showed up, we didn't place our orders until after 8pm when our ordered bar drinks finally showed up.
Apparently someone didn't show up for work, I get it, I've waitresses, things happen....that still didn't explain the lack of filling the golden rules of just give a table water/their bar drinks and they will shut up for awhile. Also, it is a small restaurant that should have been able to be fielded with the number of people on staff...I think I watched them spend more time trying to figure out how to ring up the orders at the computer than actually waiting on tables.
The food was good, nothing to write home about and did not justify the wait. If the service was better this place would have ranked a 4.
Really interesting menu. Nice service, polite and respectful. While I had seafood udon, which was delicious, the sushi was well received at my table. I would like to come back sometime!
