Excellent. Really busy, but worth the wait. – Great steak, excellent menu. The desserts are also excellent. If you want to see a restaurant full of "typical" New Yorkers, this is the place. The restaurant is huge, and busy.
Surprised – I have eaten at Sparks for years and I have to say there has yet to be another steak house in the city that can do it any better. The steaks as well as the other entrees are always served to perfection. If for any reason someone was unsatisified they have always bent over backwards to please the customer. I am very dissapointed to see that several other steak house have been rated above sparks and it only proves that most people have no idea what they are eating or talking about.
Very disappointing – You do have to wait, regardless of a reservation, but it was only about 20 minutes and that is par for the course in the city. The filet came out charred and one side was not edible. There aren't any mashed potatoes-they are more like hash browns. The spinach was cold and had to be sent back. My boyfriend had been there several times and it had always been superb, but this was my first time and I don't want to go back.
JUST OKAY – Not sure why this is supposed to be THE place: (1) meat is great, but only 2 premium cuts (filet and sirloin, and these are not everyone's favorites); (2) even if you have reservation, you'll have to wait 20 minutes; (3) lousy side dishes; (4) people who don't love filet or sirloin won't be happy -- other food is diner quality ($39.95 crab and scallop entree was clearly frozen and stuck under broiler); (5) service was not good, which is expected at steakhouses, but adds to negatives; (5) they poured our pre-meal ... read more
GREAT – Great steaks, great service and great wines. This a true New York Steakhouse and one of the best. Everytime I come here I have and amazing "steak experience". Thank God for Business Expenses.
most amazing looking and tasting steak ever~~~!!! – definiatly top tier for their food and service. we were seated at a table with the most intimate of settings. also, dont forget about what happened outside of this famous steakhouse all those years ago with the mob, so much so, that they had to repave the concrete outside! so interesting! great flavor also.
Awesome Dining Experience – This place is definitely heavy on the wallet, but it is worth every penny. The steak is amazing, the portions are huge, the atmosphere is lively and great for people watching and the service is exceptional. I wasn't sure what to expect as far as seating was concerned but I had a reservation and was seating within 5 minutes without have to "pay off" the host. It was well worth the money and I highly recommend it.
Exceptionally Disappointing! – So many BAD things about this restaurant - I don't know where to start: 1}The Maitre D' might as well have had a sign around his neck saying 'TIP ME, TIP ME, TIP ME...OR YOU WON'T BE SEATED'. He was arrogant and unwelcoming and was only civil if you gave him money. 2} We had a 7:30 reservation and (since we didn't give him money) we were seated just before 9:00 without any apology. 3} The menu/selection was typical steak house, nothing special (not even the steaks). 4} The food was average, not... read more
A quintessentially masculine retreat where well-aged, char-fired steaks meet a top-notch wine list. – The Scene The infamous site of mobster "Big Paul" Castellano's murder (he was shot on the sidewalk outside in 1985) looks the part of a classic New York steakhouse: There's an abundance of heavy dark wood, career waiters, pastoral paintings and a predominantly portly male clientele. Service is professional and engaging. The Food The menu comprises classic steakhouse fare. A fresh lobster for the table is a fittingly indulgen... read more
