Food here was good, servers were polite and being next door to an art space was a great choice.Wait time of food is long (so prepare yourself) as commonly noted in other reviews but this is because the food is made from scratch. They will tell you exactly how long it should take if you ask, so you can go view some of the art pieces next door as you await your order. There is also puff-puff served you as you wait.Parking, however, is outside the building and on the side of the road so you have to be careful with this. Its best then not to go when its quite dark/at night.Overall, a good spot for a nice meal.
Ok where are all my fellow Ofada lovers? Gather here this review is for you 😁I finally got to try @spiceplatter famous Ofada sauce and rice and men it was worth. It’s not the best I’ve had but it was not bad at all. One thing I loved about it was they were very generous with their portion! I took the remaining sauce away and I still used it twice! The assorted meat was also a lot.If you’ve been wondering where to get quality Ofada you should check out @spiceplatter it comes with plantain too. Although I wish the protein had more of beef, shaki and ponmo it had a lot of liver and I hate liver. I hope they make the protein more assorted.𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞 While I was waiting for my food they served very hot yummy puff that was when I knew I was sold! I love puff puff and this was awesome service for me 👏🏽 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐞 - 𝟒,𝟒𝟎𝟎
I had their pounded yam and afang soup with gizzard. Loved it! Deliciously made. Took about 20-35mins. An ancient ambiance (I was fascinated by the door handle), theres a museum on the other side and its free entry too.
This place has good ambience, great customer service. They have a bar and external area to sit. Few of their menus I have tasted are quite imppressive. They pride themselves in the ability to deliver your order anywhere in Abuja. You can make reservations for single and group. I consider their prices fair enough. The fulfillment time for order can be unpredictable, I thought they were fast, but it took more than 35minutes to fulfill my Sandwich order. Its good for both group and private hangouts.
Very excellent ambience to cool you down for a good sumptuously served food.
The food was so amazing and filling though the time it took was too long but it was worth it at the end.✌️
Beautiful ambience, lovely music and their desert is superb.
I liked the food. It tasted really good. Waiting time is too long and simple dishes like sandwiches were not available for children or even child friendly meals . Service by waiters were also not up to scratch. I hope to give a better review when next i visit. If you are not a fan of really large meals make sure you put some in a pack to take home as the portions are very large.
I had their local jollof rice (picure below) when i went there. Trust me people, my taste buds had the time of their lives!!! The meal was so delicious i regretted not eating there all the days i spent in abuja cos i found out about this spot the day before i left; sad! My husband had their grilled croaker fish and vegetable and that was really good too. The interior is really peaceful; soft music playing and art on the walls. Great staff. Also, they can have your food delivered to you if you cant make it down there. The restaurant opens by 9am daily except on sundays when they open up by 1pm. This is a superb place to bring family to have local dishes thats why Im giving them all my stars.
A remarkable restaurant!
Rather quite, but clean and efficient.
Horrible food! Vomitted all through the night
Beautiful ambiance and artistic environment
The service and ambience are quite pleasant. The waiters fully observed the COVID-19 protocols. This would encourage customers to return. And the address is easy to locate, of course.
Excellent fresh quality meals served always at spice platter and their bills are very affordable and reasonably.
Spice Platter is a great place. Obviously, their food is awesome, but I thought that paying in advance for buffets will make them drop a bit of quality, but no. Quality was maintained.
Courteous staff, good service, good food, good portions.
Good food......fantastic art gallery.
My wife insisted we had to dine at this restaurant and the food was absolutely delicious.However, its obvious the current pandemic had hit the restaurant quite hard. It was empty and the staff werent as enthusiastic as they were when the Missus dined there in 2019.In addition, harmattan isnt an excuse not to dust properly.
Food was very vanilla for a place called Spice Platter. Had lamb chops and it was basically fried meat seasoned only with salt. I was there for the spices!Staff could do with a refresher to take your service up to 5 🌟. Include your cashier or ??manager as attitude/service was very pedestrian.Otherwise, great ambience and a lovely view from our seat by the window.
Great location.
Their food is so spicy, I love the taste. so yummy
Or is a beautiful and cozy place.It is located right inside the Thought Art Pyramid Gallery centre so there are a lot of Art works inside it. The Glass doors give you a view of the outside while you are seated.Immediately I sat, I was given a copy of the Menu! The prices 😳😯 Its an upscale restaurant. I intended to settle for something small, so, I b cooked on the waiter and was told, each order is a la carte and wait time is 35 minutes 😯😳I had just about 10-15 minutes to spare, so, I had to leave without ordering anything with a promise to be back.I like this place
Cosy
Served bad spicy chicken. Been here several times and until now enjoyed my time here but my last visit sadly wasnt palatable. The chicken didnt smell bad but the taste was a bit odd. Mentioned to the waiter claimed it was the spice. Didnt eat anymore but the little I took have me a bad stomach after.
Good meals any day any time
Good food. Beautiful place
Serene environment and good food
The food took so long to arrive, the playlist was almost depressing
Nice place with a good food and conducive environment
Ecstatic.
Great poundo with efo...always
I actually sat at the bar area, had Ofada Rice with assorted sauce to be honest this meal took ages to be prepared😥 Then when it finally came it was worth it.😁
Great ambience and super customer service
My favourite go to for the entire family. I almost always order the mashed potatoes. The best
Nice mealNice environ
Too nice a place
Great, nice ambiance, nice food, customer service is on point
Heard so much about this restaurant and the pictures on instagram were really inviting. I am in Abuja today from Lagos and decided to go eat there.The ambiance is beautiful and the restaurant, neat.The wait staff were not particularly welcoming. Our waiter wasn’t proactive enough to recommend specials or tell us what their specialty is.The food, when it FINALLY came, was delicious. I had pounded yam and afang soup. The yam was real yam, not the dupe that poundo flour is. The portions were LARGE! I totally enjoyed my meal!They didn’t have child-friendly meals like sandwiches, burgers, pasta etc. That wasn’t good enough as we went with kids.The wait time was unnecessarily and annoyingly long. I feel the staff could do better if properly trained. The shoddy service and long wait time ruined what would have been an excellent experience.But the food...EXCELLENT!
Good ambience ,great art works, and awesome customer service.Nice dining setting too,the food tasted great and was well prepared served in a polished way but took a while to be served.The price of the food is a little expensive for people on a budget.But overall a nice place to visit.
The food looks very fancy. There’s a lot of oil in the fries though. It’s a good environment for you and your spouse, seeing as there’s romantic songs playing non stop.
Enjoyed my time here. food took a bit longer however they offered fresh puff puff while you wait. There’s an art gallery next door so you can visit
Nice restaurant, serene environment, courteous and attentive staff. The food is very good however they arent so good in making native soups but what the native soup lacks in taste they make up for in quantity.Over all, the Spice Platter is a great restaurant.
Exquisite, elegant, top-notch. Be warned.......pricey.
Good hygieneGood customer serviceVery Affordable and tasty food
Amazing service. Nice food
Had a group dinner with professional colleagues and I really cant fault anything except the above average time it takes for orders to be ready. The taste compensates for that. Neat place with outdoor option too. Pricey menu though so not every Tom, Dick & Harry can afford to eat here. Theres also a nice art gallery beside it that is worth checking out.
The ambience was nice,the food was delicious at low price and the staff are very professional
Great drinks and food...
Very cozy and recommended for couples. Great meals. A tad bit pricey but expected considering the ambiance and service. The staff is very polite and professional. This is my fiances favourite restaurant so we play dress up & go every month for a treat just because.
Very good and decent spot for meals and drinks. Clean and well laid out. Located in a serene and secure upscale environment. Conducive for family visits, business meets and hang outs. Would recommend.
They should keep their food warm under heat even if its a buffet. It was just served in plates, and was a bit cold when we wanted to eat. Ambience is good, food taste nice.
Nicely hidden away on Libreville Crescent, its a nice and cosy restaurant suitable for couple or groups. Decor is decent without being obstructive, but they could do without the disco lights. Lovely food, good service. Parking space for at least 10 cars. Worth trying out
Food served off the cooker, everything fresh, price is high but affordable. In summary foods great.
Best Jollof Rice ever! Cant get over that authentic firewood/party rice taste
Awesome place..simple yet classy, awesome food presentation, and great tasty food!
Amazing service! Nice food. I totally love the place
1Star is for the ambience, 1 Star is for the food.Ive been there a considerable number of times and the service is terrible.This one time, I went there with a friend and we ordered 2 plates of Avocado Salad, smoky chicken and 2 glasses of juice. Not only did it take ages to get ready, the waiter pointedly refused to tell us that only one plate of salad would be available until the tail end.They rarely ever have everything on the menu.Its a lovely place to chill though, if you have the time to while away and little or no trouble deciding what else to eat when what you truly want is unavailable.
The food is awesome, atmosphere, amazing! The staff are so nice and helpful. By far the best food Ive had in Abuja. Also the most expensive 😂. The only down side is that the place is very expensiveThe money is worth spending sometimes
Good food Good service
No more the same
Nice tasty food. Overwhelming though; good place for heavy eaters lol
Nice place
Very friendly staff. Nice ambience. Theres always soft music playing in the background. The Nigerian food is quite good, and the presentation makes you want to try almost any dish. Theres an art gallery next door, so if youre into art you can take a look while your order is being prepared.
The food is awesome,but takes so much time ...is worth the wait .
Nice spicy turkey
The ambience is amazing and the food #sluuurrp so delicious
Its a decent place, a wonderful place to hang out. It has a museum and a place to sit and hang out outside. The food is lovely and the ambience is fantastic.
Amazing scenery. The gallery is amazing. Food is lovely
Amazing dinner experience, lovely ambiance and great meals! Keep it up
Nice cozy place. Good meal. I was impressed and definitely visit again when the opportunity appears !
I enjoyed there Oha soup and Eforiro with their cowtail. Plz the last one I had was poundo instead of pounded yam. All the same its good
Good spot 👌
Awww! Its a beautiful serene environment. Designed with artworks and have dedicated staff. The halls are beautiful too.
Good food, amazing environment.
