Loved our visit to the Spice Finch. Everything we had was super tasty including the 3 spreads and chicken kabob. The halibut was especially light and flavorful. Service was great, and we will definitely be back.

Fantastic meal and pitch-perfect service. Low light and neutral tones of dining room plus noise were nothing special but everything about the food was. Will return for a special occasion.

We went on Christmas Eve for drinks at the bar with friends and then a 5 course prix fixe dinner for 2. Both experiences were fabulous. Quality bartender and the table service team was top notch: professionally urgent, menu advice, flexible to small adjustments, on top of clearing and packaging to go, no time holes in waiting for food or drinks, EXCELLENT FOOD. I am embarrassed I lived in Philly for 21 years before coming here. I have been missing out. Will definitely be back.
