Spice Modern Steakhouse, Downtown (Closed)

On Wednesday I had lunch at Spice Steakhouse Downtown on Lake Eola. I had the cheddar burger with fries for $9. The burger was plump and pefectly cooked at medium rare. The chef even refrained from leaning on the spatula in the false hope that it would cook faster, therefore, it was moist. Good job. The burger came on a rectangular piece of with china in what is referred to as a deconstructed state. It was appointed with a fresh slice of tomato, onions and lettuce. Catsup and mustard were provided in steel tins. The bun was large, artisinal and fresh. The cheese was well melted. The french fries were mostly crispy (I still don't get how some fries can fry limply). The service was excellent. Even the hostess didn't ruin the experience with an insulting table placement. The place is styled in a modern deco motif. Very clean and enervating (in a pleasant way). The space is broken up by booths, etc so that most have a private area. They have an outdoor patio that overlooks the lake and two bars. The space was very clean. I can suggest no improvements. You can even find free parking on the street.
