    One of the top dining experiences that we have had in the south west. The food menu selection was expansive and the quality of the meals yesterday were outstanding. The staff are very welcoming and we witnessed them being more than patient with a questionable request from a guest. We enjoyed brunch and dinner and recommend both options. We return to Spencer’s every time we come to Palm Springs… this trip reminded us why. Everything was magical. The current chef and his team are to be commended and celebrated!

    Four of us celebrated a friend's 70th birthday. A perfect place! As always great food, and even better service provided by Michelle. For 20 years this has remained one of my favorite restaurants. The consistency is amazing.

    The food and atmosphere were always very good but a guy who was refiling our water was very rough and rude. He was in a rush and dropped a lot of water outside of my glass and table got wet but no apology nor wipe the water! Also our server never asked me to refill the coffee. Not nice. Usually we got a nice service here so this time was very disappointed.
