A Cool Answer for Where to Eat: Spencer’s Restaurant Review
Spencer’s Restaurant has impressive origins. The restaurant neighboring the San Jacinto Mountains began with businessman and philanthropist Harold Matzner. Not only did Matzner open Spencer’s, he assisted with the rebirth of the Palm Springs International Film Festival, the Palm Springs Tennis Club, and he has received much recognition for his support of charities and foundations such as the Barbara Sinatra Children’s Center, AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) Assistance Program, Desert Symphony, American Cancer Society, and the Desert Cancer Foundation. Matzner was also honored with a star that is located near a statue of singer and former mayor Sonny Bono.
Spencer’s Restaurant is a gem, as it was voted “Best Outdoor Dining, Best Sunday Brunch, Best American Continental Restaurant, Best Breakfast, Best Wine List, [and] Most Romantic.” The elegant outdoor dining is a majestic experience. Diners enjoy the site of large trees within a temperature controlled patio. The ambiance and scenery makes dining at Spencer’s an excellent experience year round.
Spencer’s offers an array of multi-cuisine, continental American favorites. Items on the menu include such dishes as banana stuffed french toast, spinach and wild mushroom frittata, braised beef "Wellington" sandwiches, apple-walnut salad, wild mushroom risotto, and eggs Benedict. The service is attentive, making for a good all-around restaurant. The bonus is the terrific setting, as the restaurant is situated next to a soaring mountain and shaded by tall ficus trees.
Several items on the menu stand out after a couple visits.
Vegetarian Burger with mayonnaise, Swiss cheese, grilled onions, avocado and mushrooms on a wheat bun. Served with your choice of bread (including gluten free) toasted or not. Choice of homemade potato chips, french fries, onion rings, mixed greens, or fruit.
Benedicts are also available with gluten free bread. All Benedicts are served with roasted fingerling potatoes, broiled herbed tomato, and Hollandaise sauce.
Traditional Eggs Benedict with Canadian Bacon
Sunday Brunch: see the drink specials, such as the Cuba Libres made with rum, Coca-Cola, and lime—perfect for summer, the Rose Kennedy made with vodka, cranberry juice, and lime, and mimosas made with champagne and orange juice.
The bread served to each table is a treat for the tastebuds.
