About Gordon Spice Restaurant
Gordon Spice is a Jamaican kitchen on Wesley Chapel Road in Decatur, in a stretch of southeast DeKalb County where Caribbean takeout has become a staple of the neighborhood food economy. The restaurant runs as a tight, owner-operated counter-and-table operation rather than a sit-down dining room — most of the volume goes through pickup, Grubhub, and Uber Eats.
The menu is classic Jamaican: jerk chicken, oxtails, and curry goat are the dishes that surface again and again across reviews and the restaurant's own listings, served in the traditional way with rice and peas, steamed cabbage, and fried plantains. A Tripadvisor reviewer specifically called the jerk chicken 'one of the best balances of spicy and savory' they'd had in the area — a reasonable signal given how subjective jerk seasoning can get. Breakfast service is offered alongside lunch and dinner, which is unusual for the format and points to the restaurant catering to a Caribbean clientele who treat ackee and saltfish as morning food.
Hours are long — 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. most days, with shorter Sunday service. The dining room is described in reviews as clean and unfussy. With Restaurant.com offering $15 off $30 and $25 off $50 here, the deal economics make Gordon Spice an easy pick when you want oxtails or curry goat without paying full sit-down prices.

I ordered from this place a few times. The food is over fried, greasy and not that good. You ask, why did I order a few times then? Well, it is because I live close to Atlanta city limits and very few restaurants deliver
