In Short
This trendy Thai restaurant is one of a handful in town offering cheap eats in a sleek, mod setting. Popular with a young and hungry NYU crowd, inexpensive curries come in all colors and heats with a choice of chicken, beef, tofu, shrimp or veggies. Other house specialties include whole grilled fish with tamarind sauce and crispy duck with mushroom and pineapple.

The relocated Spice at Union Square was a let down! The service was really bad. Being popular (and I liked the old one) it was another busy day. But the attitude was callous and brash. 1) They served appetizers, and we had to wait for 5 minutes for forks, chopsticks. and they still did not get forks for all. We then had to wait another 5 minutes for all to get them ( ha.. we were just 3 people) 2) They served the curry with the spoon totally dipped in the green curry. When asked, they said, " it happened" and had to be asked to remove it as if they expected me to remove it myself and eat it. 3) They almost just kept ( threw) the food at the table and ran away, not waiting to hear if we wanted anything more. The food was good, though not as good as I remember it to be. The service was deplorable. The manager was not apologetic at all. I do not think I am going there again. Understandably a cheaper place, but I have never seen a similar service anywhere in Manhattan. Bad experience overall, couldn't leave with a good taste in my mouth. :(

I was shocked to go here with a group of 4, enjoy a hearty meal, appetizers, at least 2 rounds of drinks and have a bill just under $200.00. The duck lechee and anything extra spicy are must haves.

Went here with a couple of friends and we loved it! Although the place is small, it's all part of the very modern, chic atmosphere. The food/presentation was excellent and I would definitely go back again!
