One of the meals was missing the side, had to ask for it and waited 5 mins for the side to come out. Not at all the level of service I expected from Spencer’s. I won’t be coming back and won’t recommend to others

Attentive fun and checked in on us but did not hover. She was perfect. The food was delicious. Salads oysters Rockefeller the Brussels sprouts were amazing. The only complaint was that my husband ordered a bone in ribeye and it did not have the bone and was pre sliced. This was not what he expected and for the price was a disappointment. The flavor was great but with steaks being so expensive it should deliver what you’re expecting. Other than that the experience was wonderful. I will say in my opinion the dessert menu needs an overhaul. Nothing great on the menu but that is a matter of opinion. Would highly recommend.
