The food is delicious here. I love the flavors and the dishes we ordered were seasoned perfectly. Deviled eggs were some of the best I have tried. Compliment to the chefs! The Location is great too, plenty of street and parking lot Parkings.
Now on with why the 2 stars?
I am truly disappointed about the lack of customer service. The amount of servers that were working today were like 1 per every three tables so there were plenty of servers here to accommodate 8 occupied tables in the bar area and three other tables outside in the patio. I wonder why the service was so bad? I noticed they lacked cohesiveness. Every server were on their own here, especially the women. They don’t make eye contacts nor acknowledge anyone whose not part of the tables they were covering. We had to keep waving our arms up n down to flag someone down, and for some reason the 5 servers and bartenders behind the bar counters were in their own world. They never look up or look around to see who needs help. We had to say excuse me 3X to another lady server before she decided to turn around and asked if we needed help? To top it off, we brought a small cake and right after they cleaned our table we ask for couple new small Plates and a butter knife so we can cut our cake. Our server said, “sorry there is a cake cutting fee!” Shocked to hear…We were like, “Are you serious? Just to cut our own cake with a butter knife and to serve ourselves? Well then Nevermind.” It was not like we were asking them to cut our cake, put some candles on it and sing to us. Not at all. She then smile and walked away.
Then 10 minutes later, probably felt really silly for telling us what she told us. She handed us some small plates and a butter knife and said she had to ask for manager approval to get us new plates and a new butter knife. Wow. Can’t believe she just said that! That was a really bad reflection on whoever was managing this team tonight. The service we received today was not worth the money we spent here, the servers and their people skills turned our positives into a bad overall experience. There are so many options downtown, I don’t know if I would want to return after today.

Read moreMy wife and I recently celebrated our wedding anniversary at Camden Spit & Larder, and after 14 years together, this was by far the best dining experience we’ve ever had. We have done fine dining before, but this night was unforgettable—from the food to the customer service to the atmosphere.
From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel like VIPs. The general manager personally greeted us, and they went above and beyond by customizing our menu with our names—such a thoughtful touch that set the tone for the night. The service wasn’t just professional; it was natural, welcoming, and effortlessly cool.
Now, the food—this was straight out of a Food Network-level experience. Every dish was uniquely crafted, flavors we had never experienced before, beautifully plated, and absolutely delicious.The wine pairings were next level, and we couldn’t stop sipping them for the taste alone! I expected greatness, but my wife was completely blown away.
Located right in the heart of downtown Sacramento, near the Golden 1 Center, Camden Spit & Larder is in a perfect spot for a special night out. If you’re looking for an unparalleled dining experience with top-tier customer service, this is the place. Everyone should try this at least once—you...
Read moreBeautiful restaurant. Some amazing and some lack-luster food. We will be back! Right as you walk in you get the feel of an upscale London restaurant. Gorgeous interior. They successfully integrated old school (think: flannel club chairs) and modern (sleek, clean lines with pops of color). Very comfortable, very inviting. Our waitress (wait-person?) was Brittani. So sweet, so efficient and accommodating. She did not hover and she new the menu. We ordered the Rocket/goat cheese/roasted pair salad. She split it for us before it got to the table. Each portion was so large we thought she had given us two salads...but it was only one and it was huge. This salad was amazing! Salty, sweet, crunchy, soft and the dressing very flavorful without being heavy. Chicken Fat Rice was not our favorite. Bland, uninteresting and some items on the top of the rice we couldn't even recognize. The Sausage Rolls were my son's favorite. Delicate, flakey crust around a lovely, not-greasy sausage. Lovely taste, lovely mouth-feel. Served with English Mustard and Curry Catsup. The English mustard was very hot, as always. I didn't care for the Curry Catsup but my son did. Dessert looked very English and very good but we'll save that for...
