Spice is a Mid Century Modern styled Mediterranean restaurant that includes a menu of high quality food options. The atmosphere is very comforting. Somewhat dimly lit with lots of wood accents that inspire a soft and romantic mood. They have the ability to acommodate both small and large parties. We came with a group of 8 people and the large bench seat + table setup did not have us feeling cramped at all.

Welcome back Jenn! I admit I’ve been a long time fan of hers and am excited she has returned to our city. I think they are doing amazing things out of The Finch and it’s just going to get better. There was a few kinks with service but they will iron them out. I had some dishes that blew me away, completely different than any I’ve had in Phila prior, truly refreshing. Make sure to try the fries, shishito peppers, the peri peri shrimp are so good I wanted to lick the plate, the roasted cauliflower was not only beautiful but completely changed my apathy towards cauliflower and the samosa…just order one….or 5!

We went for Valentines Day, albeit a couple days later. Really enjoyed this restaurant. I was a bit worried that maybe it had an overhyped but I was wrong. We got there and everyone was friendly and helpful, loved the look, it gives off the Mediterranean vibe they are going for. We had blistered shisito peppers (love them, any where I see them I ordered them), very good with the harissa. The helloumi gem salad was good although a bit overdressed. Loved the Turkish tuna. The Nwassar pasta not sure what that means but super tasty, loved the deep mushroom flavor. Bread was charred how it should be. Drinks were well crafted. Worth a trip.

Came with a large group for brunch. Was fairly empty, but may have been due to it being a holiday. The service was great! Good food and drinks.

A very nice place to go with family and friends. It is good to go with a group who likes to share the items ordered. Being a place of small to large plates you want to taste the different dishes. The lamb ribs and chicken skewer are two must items to try. The spinach kishi is like the Greek spinach pie but better. The trio of dips is a nice item for the table (order extra bread). Servers very helpful with questions.

Great Tapas experience with a easy going vibe. Lots to share with friends/family. Very nice but limited wine list. Delicious cocktails I tried the Precious Flower, with nice mezcal smoky notes to go with the Mezza and Small Plates offerings. Our favorites were the Baked Cheese, Scallops, Chicken Kabobs, and Duck Wings. It’s all about various flavor profiles here. Absolutely enjoyable experience with attentive staff. Definitely will be back again.

Food wasn’t bad but def 50/50. Would recommend the broccoli tabbouleh (citrusy, fresh refreshing) and the baked cheese was good too. The cauliflower was kind of soggy and the texture wasn’t great, the pasta was bland and weirdly sour. The shrimp didn’t taste fresh, and the shakshuka was very salty. Everything else was okay nothing spectacular but not bad either
