Happy Hour at Spice Steakhouse

After a rough week at work, the hubby and I headed to Spice to give their happy hour specials a whirl. We sat inside at the bar (which gives you a great view of the Lake Eola and protects your from inclement weather) and ordered off the very limited 2-for1 wine menu. I ordered the pinot grigio (ok for the price) and he had the pinot noir (barely drinkable, but again the price was good). I suggest going for the a mojito, sangria or beer instead, which are all at happy hour prices from 3pm-7pm. We shared two appetizers as well – the Baked Brieen Croute and the Prosciutto Sea Scallops. The brie was good and exactly what you would expect, but the scallops were a true stand out. They were huge, fresh and seared to perfection and then drizzled with a sweet chili infused oil. Yum! We went on a Friday about 6pm and were disappointed to be one of only two couples there. Maybe it was the weather (60s) or the happy hour wine, but we expected at least a few other people on a Friday afternoon happy hour. Bottom Line: The food was great and the drink prices good, but Urban Girl likes a crowd so we’ll probably stick to Brunch and Dinner at Spice.
