I don't usually rave about clam chowder, but this one seriously blew me away. It was rich, creamy, and packed with flavor without being too heavy. The clams were tender and tasted super fresh, and every bite had the perfect balance of savory, buttery goodness. The potatoes were cooked just right,not mushy, not hard and the seasoning was spot on. Honestly one of the best bowls of chowder I've ever had. On top of that, the service was excellent and friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. I'd go back for this alone. read more

I almost walked out before anyone acknowledged me. Took nearly an hour just to get a takeout order. Ordered the German chocolate bread pudding, got random cheesecake instead. The waitress admitted she made a mistake. She told me to keep the accidental cheesecake while I waited for the correct dessert. She apologized and went to the table behind mine to apologize because she "got distracted" Lmao... my goodness. German chocolate pudding has too many nuts. No coconut but there is warm caramel. Partner liked the crab, but the "prawns" were tiny. The crème brûlée was literally a puddle of warm liquid in a to-go box. The French fries were actually delicious. Hugely expensive for what it is. Only go here if you have a free voucher and infinite patience. PS .. see photo of restaurant dishes directly on top of a trash can and what appears to be a sanitation bucket. read more

Spencer's is inside the Hilton at the Seattle Airport. The restaurant is large, open, and airy. You don't feel crammed in. The wait staff is attentive without bugging you too much and brought us any extras we needed. The omlete is large so we split it and it was plenty. The veggies in the omlete were crispy and fresh which sometimes doesn't happen in omletes. Everything was hot and fresh, a perfect start to our day. read more

Upscale feeling restaurant just off the main lobby in the Hilton hotel. Prices are high and quality of food is average. Overall, service was good. I had the Chicken Chop for dinner - one side of it partially overcooked; half of the carrots were undercooked and were essentially crunchy carrot sticks. The German Chocolate Bread Pudding was delicious and the star of the show! read more

Spencer's has become an annual tradition...we stay at the Hilton after 4 nights of camping at the Gorge and enjoying Dave Matthews Band. So nice to have a well-prepared meal at the end of an amazing weekend. This year we had the Crispy Skin Salmon and the Steak Frites....sooo good!! See ya again in 2026!! read more

BAR SCENE REVIEW. Most underrated SEATAC bar, definitely worth the trip, or if you are a Hilton guest its unnecessary to go wandering around looking for a cool spot (like I did for years). Cozy atmosphere, good bar bites, burgers, select dinner items, nothing fancy pants though or you will be disappointed. Sandra the bartender (sorry I may have forgotten her name, she is from Columbia, you will know...) is amazing, one of the nicest people you will meet and offers great service, is highly attentive and good company. Breakfast has always been iffy - difficult service. Food, meh. Listen, folks up that early in the morning are heading to the airport to catch a flight! You may sit there 5-10 minutes before you see a server so bake that into your travel time to the terminal. The main dining room/dinner menu, I am not a fan - the kitchen does not put out consistently good food, I fear they know generally, hotel guests are a captive audience so my guess is the restaurant manager is not on top of things. I did some research online about Spencer's for Steak and Chops and was thoroughly confused. I thought it was a chain but could not locate one sole website with all of their locations, only independent franchises popped up. I have been to several around the country that are MUCH better; Salt Lake City for instance is a significant step UP from Seattle. If Hilton manages this one, the GM needs to step in, if Spencer's is leasing the space, well, the owner should be more involved. In any case, for dinner and a game at the bar, try a Burger, NY Steak, Fillet, Rib Eye, or Roasted Chicken. I tried one of the Pappardelle dishes once it was very good. The Farmer's, Caesar, and Wedge salads are all very good. For appetizers go with the Crab Cake, or try the Buffalo Chicken Wings which are excellent, they will prepare them extra crispy if you ask. I hate undercooked slippery wings! 4 stars, bordering on 3, but the bar service was an add-on. Good bar vibe, friendly company, they aways have a game on. Very expensive $$$ price value proposition. I cannot believe the prices dining out anymore, maybe its just my tab everywhere now. $143 dinner for one, and a few drinks... included tip. Ouch. read more

I had breakfast here and I was pleasantly surprised. I normally don't eat breakfast but just go to Dunkin' Donuts late morning however I knew I was going to be walking a lot so decided to get a light breakfast. I ordered the Greek yoghurt with granola and berries and pastry and the presentation was really great! I could not even finish everything! Great service as well read more

So happy we had dinner here because everything was delicious! We split the charred artichoke app, clam chowder & crispy skin salmon. Each dish was flavorful, filling & cooked to perfection.

Not a chain restaurant or chain anything kind of guy as anyone who's read my reviews will attest. However, we had an early am flight out of SeaTac that would require us to get up at 3am and drive 90 minutes to catch. We opted to stay at the SeaTac Airport Hilton. Another deserving review that I can write in the plane. Dined at Spenser's. From the reception to the payment of the bill; flawless, friendly and welcoming! We weren't in the mood for big beef or chop dinners so we opted for salads and sides. I had the Farmers salad with beets. It was the best butter lettuce and beet salad I can remember having. My side of Beecher's Mac n Cheese was the perfect pairing. My partner ordered the wedge salad and roasted squash. She was equally pleased. We shared the sides so I can tell you that the roasted squash side was a match for the mac n cheese. Service was delightful. read more

We got to the hotel around 7 pm after a long day of travel so this restaurant was in the hotel and close. Neither one of us wanted too heavy of a meal. I started with a lemonade which was very good. I was asked if I wanted a second one but I was too full. I ordered off the appetizer menu with prawns and cocktail sauce and a bowl of clam chowder. My husband ordered the 1/2 chicken dinner. My prawns were big and tasted good. The cocktail sauce had a spoon of horseradish added on the top and we enjoyed the additional flavor. My clam chowder was delicious, creamy with diced potatoes and bits of clam. My husbands chicken was glazed. He said he couldn't taste anything but I tasted a little salty and another flavor. His chicken was served with broccoli that were a deep green and fingerling potatoes. He had a leg and veggies left over. We ordered dessert to take back to our room. A carrot cake that my husband said was awesome and a red velvet cake that was pretty dang good. They came with a mixture of fresh blueberries, cut strawberries and blackberries. 1/2 was enjoyed before bed and the other 1/2 became breakfast. The price seems a bit higher than normal but par for the hotel restaurants these days. Our server was excellent and we enjoyed her accent. We got in a conversation about just visiting Calgary, Lake Louise and Banff in Canada . read more

Had good food here. Not a huge menu but it is a hotel restaurant. Has steaks, local seafood and sandwiches. Crab cakes were great and the Cuban I had was huge. Slow service, but we did go during a slow time of day, before the supper rush. Food was expensive but perhaps food in Seattle right now is expensive. May update if I get more information. read more

I just flew into town on a six hour flight from Ft Lauderdale. It's about 11:00 pm Seattle time and I'm starving. Everything in the airport is already closed, so we decided to eat at the hotels restaurant. The restaurant itself is closed but you can still order food at the bar. They have tables around the bar, but if you're traveling with a child under 21 you can't sit there and there is no other place to sit other then bringing it to your room. And yes the bar tender is nasty about telling you. So my wife ordered a couple of flat bread pizza for her and my daughter and a Cuban sandwich for me. The pizzas reminded of of the old Wendy's commercial "wears the beef", but more like "wears the pizza!" Big box, tiny little pizza, and they weren't even that good. Now the Cuban! If you want to call it a Cuban. First it wasn't even made on the one thing that makes it a Cuban, the bread. It was made on a hamburger bun and not even pressed. The roasted pork tasted like BBQ pork with one thin slice of ham and cheese. The fries weren't even good, they were so bad I couldn't even eat them. I would have been better off ordering from domino's pizza. read more

Spencer's sits within the Hilton Airport Hotel and Conference Center. There is ample room at and around the bar or you can sit in the restaurant area. Therese was very friendly and attentive before, during and after our dinner, and that was at a time when they were getting the dinner crowd. The food was very good. The Cheeseburger was excellent and perfectly prepared. The salmon corn chowder had an ok flavor but it was too heavy. The farmer salad was delicious. Prices were a little high but it's Seattle and it's the airport so all balances out read more

The price for food at this restaurant does not align with the quality of food. Filet mignon was overcooked and dry. My friends lamb chop was also dry. She asked them to prepare it again and the waiter asked if they could put it back on the grill The tastiest part was the carrots. The way the menu is outlined you would think a side would come with your entree NOPE they charge for it. One and done here. Trust me, don't waste your time or money read more

I wish I could actually review this restaurant, but since parking was essentially impossible, I can't! We left and headed for Sharp's (5 minutes away, no hassle parking, also on Pac highway) and had a great meal. Maybe they will figure out that validated parking gets people in... someday. read more

I take the occasional early flight from SeaTac and stay at the Hilton nearby. Spencer's is in the hotel so it's convenient to eat there. In my experience, the service is always excellent, the food usually good but it is way overpriced. I have had very good steaks and pork chops but I have also had a couple that were tough or too fatty. The seafood is always good read more

Had a wonderful dinner in the bar tonight. Broiled artichoke was delicious but heavily charred so not for everyone but we loved it. Burger was outstanding. But the best part was our server Therese. She was the highlight. We are Hilton Diamond members and have eaten in many Hilton's around the world and this stacks up as one of the best. Thanks for the great food and service read more

I am a sucker for staying in hotels so when our flight from Seattle to Denver was cancelled and Alaska Airlines put us up in the Hilton, I wasn't mad. Ha! Being that we had already returned our rental car and didn't feel like catching an uber to explore more of the city, we settled into our room and made our way to Spencer's for happy hour/dinner. We were quickly greeted by the friendly bartender who allowed us to pick our own table. She came right over, provided us with waters and took our drink order (double vodka sprite with a lime for him and a 9oz Pinot Grigio for me) and allowed us to peruse the menu. Considering we had eaten a meal a few hours prior, we opted to order a variety of appetizers to share. Everything sounded delicious (maybe we were hungrier than I thought) and opted for an order of the chicken wings, Cesear salad, cup of French onion soup and another small app that escapes me now. Everything came out in record time, was pretty in presentation and tasted delicious. The soup was SO cheesy with perfectly toasted bread, the salad was massive and fresh, and the wings were saucy! We enjoyed the food with another round of drinks before boxing up our leftovers and heading back to the room. The only thing that makes this review 3 stars is the shocking price tag! Our bill totaled $200 with a 20% tip which seems INSANE for the amount of food we got. I suppose that price was due to our alcohol orders - which still seems high to me. Either way, if staying here again, I'll be more mindful of the prices! read more

Phenomenal food, service, and ambience. I needed to be very close to the airport the night before I flew out back to California, and this was a perfect place because it had a Spencer's Steaks and Chops in the hotel. That hotel was Seattle Hilton and conference Center. The hotel room was great too. read more

Every time when travel to Seattle and staying at the Hilton, I always stopped by the Spencer. This hotel might be a little bit outdated but has a very nice restaurant. Service is fine but the food is good. I guess when you travel and feel hungry everything tastes better at the time. Most of the stuff we order are common and not too hard to prepare so less chances to go wrong. Most of the Spencer at Hilton are famous for their wood burning steak, which is something I like. If you need coffee, the Starbucks is onsite. Overall I think it is pretty good while traveling or a place for business lunch or dinner. read more

This lamb shank is what dreams are made of. The succulent meat fell off the bone and I soaked up the rich reduction with it.

It's a massive portion so two people can share or you can order some tasty bread so you can secure cold lamb sandwiches for later. The staff is very attentive and friendly.

Very hit or miss and certainly not worth what they charge. The lemon meringue is burnt, salty, and foamy and doesnt really have any lemon flavor. The butternut squash soup was excellent, full of flavor and silky. The vegetarian pappardelle had a few good bites in there but was largely bland. The bread had an off putting musty/moldy flavor but the tomato and olive tapenade was delicious. I would not eat here again. read more

We just had the greatest meal at Spencer's! We hesitated at first, but I'm glad we followed thru. We're staying at the Hilton, so we decided that it was easiest to just walk on down the hall & eat. And I am so glad we did! Food was excellent & it was the service from all the wait staff that made our evening! Especially kudos to David our waiter! Being from Hawaii as we are he knew right away we were local girls. He made the effort to always being attentive & cracking us up! Theresa in the bar was also very nice & helpful The hostess as we missed her name was cheery & friendly also. So if you're thinking the restaurant at the Hilton isn't up to par,wrong it fulfilled our needs with great food & extremely great service! Mahalos & Mele Kalikimaka to you all! read more

I ate here twice over the span of two days because I was staying at the Hilton for a conference and this was the only restaurant in the hotel, but also the only other restaurants in the area were also hotel restaurants. This restaurant is priced appropriately for a steak house. However, it is not priced appropriately for a steak house that's in the middle of a hotel lobby located next to the airport. I would have no problem paying the prices if I was going to an actual restaurant and if I lived in the area I would never consider going to Spencer's for a nice dinner. I highly recommend they consider a lower price point. $22+ for a burger and $13 for a 6oz pour of wine is a little ridiculous. With that said, the food is good. My first meal there was the Cobb salad. The lettuce was diverse (not your standard iceberg) and the meat, avocado, eggs, tomatoes, etc were all fresh and hand cut. It was delicious with oil/vinegar and no cheese. My second meal was a burger (no bun, no cheese, no sauce) and it was cooked to perfection. It had tremendous flavor. The service and accommodations for my weird dietary requests were great. Both ladies who served me were nice and I appreciated their hospitality. Perhaps Spencer's should consider offering a larger discount to people who are attending conferences there, and/or staying for several days, or offer a separate menu for those folks. Wine prices need to be dropped, or lower price point options for wines need to be available. I noticed conference attendees did not hang out in the lobby bar over the course of three days (which is extremely unusual for this group), and heard from everyone that it was because it was too expensive to drink there. read more

The food was great. Servings were smaller than expected but still filling. Our waitress was Karen. She was nice at first but as the evening went on she refilled my husbands glass of tea twice and never once asked if I wanted a water refill. She acted as if I was invisible but little did she know that I held the card paying for this meal. Her tip reflected on her service towards me. The atmosphere was nice except the few outburst from the large group seated by the windows. They were really loud at times. I was not impressed enough to say I will definitely go back or recommend this establishment. read more

The French onion soup had good flavor, thanks to the 3 bay leaves, if you can get past the layer of oil on top. The Beecher's Mac and Cheese was watered down and had random veggie/food particles (a tomato seed and maybe a broccoli stem) in it but it had good moments of flavor. The Ceasars salad was very good. The salad and the blue cheese stuffed olive (made on-site) martini are the reasons to provide 3 stars instead of 2. read more

Food is subpar. I ordered the Caesar salad and it was extremely fishy, I'm talking about tuna from a can fishy. I know Caesar salad has anchovies in the dressing, but I have never had anything this fishy for salad before, even raw sashimi wouldn't be that fishy. Sent it back for French onion soup. The soup was good, but extremely salty to the point where I felt I had to add water to play down the saltiness. My dinner was the "wagyu" beef medium rare. Well, it came burnt and it was hard. I am extremely disappointed in the food quality of this place. The price is steep, and I wouldn't have had an issue with it if the food was actually up to par. Total bill came to $75.57 with 20% tip given. Unfortunately, I have to say this place deserves a 1 star for the food. Service is fine though. Very disappointed. I expected more from a steakhouse. read more

The experience started off poorly as I waited over ten minutes to be noticed by my server. She asked me what I wanted without bringing a menu. So I felt like I had to ask for a menu which is frustrating to me. She returned with the menu and took my order. The food arrived quickly. I can say i would not order the burger again. For the menu price of 26$ it was disappointing. For the happy hour price of 19$ it was still disappointing. The patty was flavorless and with the bacon it should have been full of flavor. I feel like the cow and the pig died in vain. The fires were good but that is as far as i would go. And the grease...oh my goodness the level of grease on this burger was amazing to me. I held it up and let it drip off which makes me feel like it was super fatty ground beef thus cheap. Never again. read more

We had just checked in from a long flight and ordered food from the restaurant to eat in room. Absolute rubbish. Ordered a New York steak MEDIUM RARE, and instead I was given this piece of trash burnt with burnt potatoes. As a Hilton member, I was expecting a better quality from their restaurant. $50 for an absolute waste of food. We tried to call and go down but since they closed at 10pm (we ordered at 9:30, picked up food at 9:55pm), no one was there to help. I cannot believe this place is able to operate within the brand of Hilton. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME IN THIS RESTAURANT. I have seen better cooked meals from a diner. DISGUSTING. ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING. I will no longer book at this Hilton either. Such a disgusting dish served. DISGUSTING. read more
