Pros:
the food is good, most of the time
they've re-used furniture rather than buying new
There is a lot seating
Cons:
Service can be very slow if there is any kind of a crowd
So much of their dinnerware is disposable (cutlery, cups, cheapy napkins)
The mod, higher end atmosphere does not mesh well with disposable materials and wall mounted napkin dispensers
huge groups of customers are permitted to move tables around and block the entrance and restrooms
Just my opinion:
Disposable should be for take out. Set up a large seating area out of the way to discourage large groups from being in the way and creating a safety hazard (or tell them to not move all of the tables into the entryway). Only serve tomatoes when ripe. Clean the tables every time they are used. Replace broken canisters and furniture. I really enjoy the food here but have left irritated several times due to having to ask someone to please move their chair so that I could get to the door, especially on Sunday mornings when the entrance to Spice is locked so the front door is the only way out.
