Spears is a good place to have dinner & a cocktail. We both ordered something different this time. I ordered the Filet sliders, very good . This item does not come with a side. I ordered the vampire fries. also very good. My hubby ordered Smash's mac which goes great with the vamp fries. Our server Armida took very good care of us. Suggest to make a reservation as this place tends to get crowded. See you again very soon!

Another great dinner at spears. It’s our go to for burgers. The Spears burger is a fav because of the Merks cheese. My family loves the bbq chips that are made in house.

Had not eaten here since the restaurant first opened. Glad we gave it a second chance. Expect to return. Add onion soup to menu. Beignets were wonderful.

Here’s a review you could use: We celebrated a birthday at Spears, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience! The food was outstanding, with every dish perfectly prepared and bursting with flavor—everyone at the table raved about it. A special shoutout to our incredible server, Armie, who went above and beyond to make the evening truly unforgettable. Her warm and friendly demeanor, impeccable attention to detail, and top-notch service elevated our celebration to the next level. To top it all off, Armie surprised the birthday boy (my husband) and the rest of the table with a towering cotton candy treat that made the night even more special. Thank you, Spears, for such a memorable evening—we can’t wait to return!
