Fine dining from arrival to departure. Richard was a greater waiter, guiding us to find the perfect wine for our meal and selecting the opening and entree offerings. Very knowledgeable of the menu items and offering his birthday congratulations. Spencer's has a great menu and wine/cocktail selection. The dining is open-air, but includes radiant heating this time of year. Beautiful setting. Valet parking was friendly and efficient.

Lovely spot with friendly staff. Priced too high for frequent visits. Food was delicious. I can't stand bringing me a device at the table to pay my tab without ever seeing the bill. Bring me a printout of the bill so I can confirm the total. I've caught way too many mistakes on bills in restaurants and bars. I don't know what hidden fees you've added or mistakes you've made when you do this. I know it's illegal in a retail store to not be able to see the prices ringing up.

Would definitely dine here again. We had the steak and the special of sea bass; both were outstanding. The waiter was attentive and professional. It was a lively night at the restaurant with all the tables full - not a place to go if you're looking for a quiet evening which we were not :) Highly recommend!

It was a Friday night and the restaurant was busy. Food and service was good. The staff assisted each other and spoke wish the guests giving a more personal touch. Some of the staff were friendly and funny. It was my Spouse’s 80th birthday and the evening was festive and fun. Lot of laughter and good food. The highlight of our evening was meeting the owner Jimmy B.
