I got a cheese roll with beef. Spinach rice with Curry chicken gravey. When I tell you I'm from the south and never had Guyanese food!!! I will be back. What I order was so good!!! The service was awesome the lady that started helping me was patience with explaining the food which looked so good but I don't eat fish or peas. The guy finished and they was so helpful. This place has expanded my taste buds!!!

The food is absolutely delicious. My office hires the team for lunch every few weeks and we are never disappointed. The line is always out of the door. The food is flavorful and the people are always so kind.

I am in restaurantm often.Your service is pretty good, but today, July 1st I was in your restaurant and the service was horrible, the young lady for some reason didn't seem like she wanna be there. I'm not here to have anyone lose their job. But just to let you guys know to educate your employees on customer service. I love your establishment.We do not have much guyananess restaurants in new jersey.

Great food. I ordered the jerk salmon meal. $24, a little pricey but they give you a lot. Workers were also friendly.

Amazing Food & Even Better Service! I recently visited Spice N Thing and was blown away by the entire experience. The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. From the initial approach to being served my order, everything was smooth and professional. What really made my visit unforgettable was the outstanding service I received from Latoya (the young lady with the glasses). She greeted me with a warm, genuine smile and treated me like a valued guest from the moment I walked in. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive throughout the entire interaction. It’s rare to come across someone so naturally gifted in hospitality. She didn't just take my order, she elevated the whole experience with her positive energy and professionalism. She is a true asset to the Spice N Thing team, and I want to sincerely thank the management for hiring her and sharing her service with the community. You've got a real star on your hands. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for amazing Caribbean cuisine and top-tier service. I'll definitely be back!

My experience was awesome. Andrea made sure my order was ready on time, well-packed, and the pasties tasted great, which were also fresh. I definitely recommend this business for its Caribbean delicacies.

I want to start by addressing the service. The attitude of the staff member who served us was unfortunately quite poor. Since a lot of items on the menu weren't available, we had to ask about dishes one by one. The server was visibly annoyed ("long-faced") and didn't hide his irritation, but to his credit, he did answer all of our questions. Just be prepared for this kind of interaction. Now for the good part: the food! Knowing the service was sub-par actually helped us not be affected by it, and we were able to fully focus on the meal. The food here is truly, exceptionally delicious. It was well-prepared, flavorful, and a genuinely great culinary experience.
