What people say, in short
Spruce draws recommendations for its food and service, with one diner describing the food as excellent and the service as attentive and personalized, down to remembering preferences and past visits and timing courses well. One parent says the restaurant has been accommodating of children on family dinners, and another diner recalls a family being handled fine. A visitor singles out sitting at the bar with a hamburger and a bottle of wine as an excellent evening, while one commenter considers it worse than another spot.
