    My friend ordered a grilled chicken sandwich, but added Swiss cheese and change the French roll to Focaccia bread. It arrived on a wheat hamburger bun and no Swiss cheese. After 10 minutes of trying to get anyone’s attention, we gave up an ate. Then the server finally came by to refill her ice tea, we said what was incorrect and the response was “0h”. No offer to fix, no sorry, nothing. And that ice tea refill- well it was Diet Coke. They don’t mix well.

    Celebrated a special evening and ordered from the prix fixe menu. Both of us had the Kung Pao Calamari - it was delicious. The sauce was excellent and the calamari was tender. My spouse had the Lake Superior White Fish and said it was very good - but would have preferred it with the Kung Pao sauce instead of the plated sauce. My spouse is Asian and has a preference for spicy flavors. I had the New York Steak and found it flavorful. We both took the carrot cake home - as the meal was more than filling and enjoyable. The server and table staff were attentive and not disruptive - which we appreciated. The meal, service, and ambiance were as enjoyable as ever. We'll definitely continue going to Spencer's.
