    Always a wonderful experience. This was a business dinner, and I love sparks for that because the tables are spaced widely apart, and the noise level allows quiet conversation. My guests had fish, and I had a sirloin steak the food, the ambience, and the service could not be better. I’ve been here many times over the years and will always be coming back.

    Sparks steakhouse is known to be one of NYC’s best steakhouse consistently for years. It is not a restaurant that you can eat in every night. The portions are big and delicious with an atmosphere of a quality restaurant that has a great staff. You get more than you pay for here.

    This is the best steak house in New York. The meat is fabulous and the staff is really kind and patient. Also the place is authentic with its interior that takes you back in time. I really enjoyed my time there and I will definitely recommend this place to my friends and family.

    First time there. Was looking forward to going. Sirloin was ordered medium. Had to be sent back twice bc under cooked. One person in our group had to wait to eat when we were all basicaly done. Then steak was just ok. Will not be back.

    Our server had the personality of a wet mop. Zero interaction. Didn’t suggest anything from the menu. We had to beg for water and to order a drink. The food more than made up for it but consider hiring staff that speak to customers.
