My server was so cool and quick to get me in and get my order placed at the bar, as I was in a rush. The spreads were amazing. Loved the food.

We had their chef tasting and wine pairings and were absolutely delighted. A lot of good fine dining food. The staff were friendly and very knowledgeable. Obviously recommend everything we had. Have to go back, want to try their duck wings. Side dishes are phenomenal. We had the opportunity to get both the lamb shank and whole fish. Lots of light and fresh vibrant food with some richness and meatiness added in. If you can afford to pull from your wallet, this is definitely the place.

We went for brunch on a holiday weekend. There were not many people there, not sure why, but the food was delicious. The facility is beautiful. The waiter was knowledgeable about the menu and his suggestions were spot on.Parking: Parking was still pricey even with the discount.

We had an exceptional meal here (our first in Philly). We were tired from traveling and decided to get an easy dinner in the lobby of our hotel. My husband (who is Greek) is typically skeptical of ‘Mediterranean’ restaurants, but was blown away by the quality of this food. Everything was fresh and delicious and the service was exceptional and friendly. Don’t skip the garlic yogurt, the spinach kichi or the warm tahini brownie. Thank you for a great experience!

We went for happy hour with a medium sized group. It was a bit crowded so it was really surprising to see a single person working the whole happy hour area. Definitely a miss service wise even though the staff were perfectly nice. Food is very yummy and decently priced for a happy hour.

Update : I used to LOVE Spice Finch, great food and service. In the last year I have visited 5-6 times. Their service is not consistent and the food and drinks have gone down hill. It looks like this may now be the general consensus since patronage is sparse. Please bring back the old Spice Finch!

My second time here and it’s became one of my favorite places to dine at! Everything we’ve gotten so far has been amazing! Highly recommend the Trio of spreads, Duck wings, and the Moroccan Steak Frites! Servers are so nice and the atmosphere is perfect!
My boyfriend and I have been here a few times. The first time we sat at the bar and had appetizers, which were really good. Then we came for dinner and everything we ordered was delectable. Definitely coming back.
Did Spice Finch during restaurant week: modern design with a lovely, dimly lit ambience.The staff was wonderful, especially our server Katy who was attentive, informative and energetic.The cuisine started with an unfortunate stumble, the complementary dips with crudité(sliced cucumber, watermelon radish and beets…that was cool) and dreadful bebere crisps…those crisps were so HARD, they could CRACK a tooth! When we informed our server of these diabolical bread chips, she immediately replaced it with a soft flatbread which was enjoyable.The duck wings: Delicious.The chickpea wedges…I don’t remember… but they must’ve tasted good because they vanished quick!The blistered shishito peppers: a lovely smokiness and mildly spicy(there was one rebellious hot pepper that ambushed my husband’s tastebuds). Wished there was a little bit more drizzle of dressing.The Moroccan steak: Perfectly cooked medium rare and flavorful, the thinly sliced frites were nice.The whole Bronzino fish: awesomely tasty, a dazzle of mixed herbs, crispy skin, perfectly tender on the inside(and 95% deboned, so eat slow and savor your food!)… This beautiful fish didn't deserve its unworthy sides: the rice was blah, cold/undercooked, and the pickled onions were pucker super-tart with no balance!Finished off with dessert: the date truffles were dense and perfectly sweet(I should have had with a cup of tea)… the Halavlah brownie was good, I wish I could've been a smidge bigger.Staff: FIVE starsBerbere crisps: HALF Star!Appetizers: four and 1/2 starsEntrées: Five starsEntrées’ Side dishes: three starsDessert: four starsOverall dining experience that evening: FOUR STARS.Tons of restaurants in the city, but Spice Finch is a worthy adventure… I hear the happy hour is lovely…we may return for the memorable steak and fish.PS: need to use the restroom? That is a holy grail journey in and of itself… one has to leave the restaurant, go through the hotel’s lobby and then some, to find the bathroom. Just FYI.

My second time here and it was more delicious than I remember! Our server was wonderful and everything arrived beautifully. We got a bunch of small plates and my friend was even able to order a shakshuka off-menu after having a super strong craving lol (it's usually just served at brunch). We had a wonderful evening and will be back again!
I came in with a few friends on Saturday, and we had an amazing time. We started with cocktails at the bar, where our bartender Michelle was quick, friendly, and made some of the most unique cocktails we had ever had. We sat down for dinner and our server Brittany greeted us & spoke about the food with passion--she was not wrong. Everything we had from the chickpea wedges & the lamb merguez to the valentines day specials we happened to stumble upon were delicious. The chefs here clearly care about the food & their guests experience. I will be recommending Spice Finch for years to come!
