About this business

This Midtown hot spot with an infamous history has developed a reputation for good steaks and a business crowd. Dry-aged beef is served in hearty portions, as well as extra-thick veal and lamb chops. Seafood selections include red snapper and striped bass. Large dining rooms with dark antique furniture and staid paintings create the atmosphere. Black-tied waiters and efficient service set the pace. There is also an amazing wine list, with huge selections and amazingly affordable prices.

Best Steak Ever!!! – My husband and I live in Denver, but try to get to NYC a couple times a year and everytime we visit Sparks and have never been disappointed. The steaks are cooked to perfection, the service wonderful (although the wait staff is not overly friendly) and the wine list is unbelievable. We always make reservations, and have never had to wait. For anyone who loves steak this is an absolute must!!!!!

Great place – I don't know about the other posts and why people waited so long, but we were sat 30 seconds after we arrived and the maitre d was nice, and it was crowded on a Thursday. The service was A+ and he told us to sit and enjoy our dessert and there was absolutely no rush on anything. If there is anything better in the world than their 3 lamb chops, then i'd love to know about it. This place was great.

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
