Attentive and accommodating, the staff at Spencer’s was there to serve. The team anticipated our every need, kept an appropriate pace between courses giving us time to thoroughly enjoy each dish, and provided great recommendations.
The Food

Seafood tower, anyone? Oysters, snow crab, poached lobster and more, the seafood tower was an absolute delight. While dishes from the sea are certainly a staple on Spencer’s menu, there’s plenty to offer for our vegetarian and carnivorous friends. The ricotta gnocchi was a standout dish, with wild mushrooms and an impeccable chive emulsion. The fried chicken sandwich was hearty, flavourful, and satisfying. Never being one to shy away from truffle fries, they were the perfect accompaniment to round out our meal.
The Drinks

Spencer’s beverage list is extensive, boasting a carefully curated wine list. Whether you are looking to enjoy a mocktail, low-ABV-Cocktail or go Spirit free, Spencer’s has lovingly crafted a beautiful list of refreshments. The Earl Grey-Elderflower Collins was light and bubbly, and the Back in Office mocktail was extremely refreshing – both perfect for sipping on a hot summer day
The Verdict
Spencer’s at the Waterfront offers a memorable fine dining experience with exquisite food, attentive service, and unmatched views. Whether you are a local or visiting friends from out of town, Spencer’s won’t disappoint.
