Spencer's For Steaks and Chops

Frommer's Review

This sophisticated steakhouse is the perfect spot to celebrate a special occasion, or to just sit back and enjoy one of the best steaks you've ever tasted. The handsome dining room reminds us of a library in a British lord's country home, with dark wood, tapestry-like fabrics and wall coverings, historic photos, soft lighting, and intimate and comfortable booths. Service is attentive and efficient.

Beef is king here -- aged, well-marbled USDA prime beef that is simply and perfectly prepared. We heartily recommend the New York strip, or the super-tender filet mignon. Other choices include prime rib, grilled vegetable pasta, double-cut lamb chops, and broiled chicken chop. Seafood lovers can choose the fresh fish of the day (flown in daily), grilled salmon, Alaskan king crab, or grilled prawns on linguine. Main courses include a house salad and hot, crusty bread. Accompaniments, such as the garlic skin-on smashed potatoes or Burgundy mushrooms, are a la carte. The lunch menu includes a half-pound burger, chicken breast on sourdough bread, grilled salmon, any dinner steak, and entree salads such as Caesar with salmon.

Spencer's is technically a private club, so you'll need to pay about $5 to join. It has an extensive wine list and an excellent selection of single malt Scotches, along with the best selection of cigars in the area.
