Spark Woodfire Grill is a contemporary American restaurant that grills, seers and roasts prime steaks, chops, ribs and seafood in a chic boutique neighborhood restaurant with a great neighborhood feel. Spark Woodfire Grill was opened in Studio City in 1999 and the restaurant, designed by Osvaldo Maiozzi, a noted restaurant designer, was an immediate success drawing guests from all over the Valley and Westside areas. Located in a two-story boutique-style building, the original dining room sat 50 guests and had a small patio area located in front of the restaurant. In 2001, the Studio City location expanded by adding an upstairs private wine room that houses an expanding wine inventory (approximately 3000 bottles) to compliment the Spark menu. Now the upstairs of Spark features a new Lounge and wine room with dining and music for Happy Hour Monday-Friday from 5-8:00 pm.

That's because architect Osvaldo Maiozzi (Vincenti) put the rotisserie, grill and pizza oven behind glass and installed flame-colored awnings above the petite patio. This is the place for heroic-sized platters of Caesar salad, Italian meatloaf and fritto misto. Those for whom nothing can be too rich or too thin will dote on the late Mauro Vincenti's lush lasagna and the wood-fired, thin-crusted, Roman-style pizzas.

The grill made everything taste great. the only thing was the vegetables seemed old and re used?? Pros: Steak Cons: Vegetables Posted 03/27/09 Great Menu, great foo~d! Good spot to take out of town friends By Gotro17 Spark is consistently good food with great service and nice setting. I've taken friends from out of town for dinner, mainly because we have always had a great meal and nice evening... The fish specials are always winners~ Posted 12/31/08 Wonderful experience By netter1 A wonderful experience from beginning to end. My husband and I enjoyed dinner at Spark for the first time last week to celebrate his birthday. I was able to make a short notice (same day) reservation on Open Table. When I called the restaurant a few hours later to confirm, they had everything including my special seating request that was "no problem" to accommodate. Even when I called 15 minutes before our reservation letting them know we were running about 15 minutes late, they were extremely friendly and thanked us for the notice. Everyone at the restaurant was friendly and the service was excellent. Our beverages were constantly filled (a pet peeve of mine). We started our meals with two appetizers -- the fried calamari and the buffeleta mozzarella caprese salad. I enjoyed a lovely Lemon Drop cocktail while my husband went with the non-alcoholic version (a lemonade). Hubby went for the manly "cowboy" 20 oz bone-in ribeye steak with the Maytag bleu cheese topping. I showed some restraint and tried the daily special sea bass with jasmine rice instead of the mashed potatoes. Both entrees were flavorful and filling. We hadn't planned on having dessert but our server must have overheard me say it was his birthday and she brought us a complimentary tiramisu to end the evening. I have to say, generally I dislike Tiramisu because most places drown it in alcohol or just too much liquid in general. But this tiramisu was just wonderful. It was light, creamy, and the lady fingers were NOT mush. The cocoa powder dusted over the top mellowed out the coffee flavor, and we ate the whole thing. We definitely recommend Spark for a great dinner in a casual atmosphere. Cons: Valet parking can get hectic, and the wait a little tiresome Posted 06/02/08 Outstanding restaurant! By tarpman Last night was my second time at Sparks and will not be my last. The ambiance is fabulous, the service outstanding, and the food second to none. The waiter and bus boys were never too far away, I never needed to wait for my glass to be re-filled. Even the manager checked on us several times. With cocktails, drinks, desert, and a well deserved 25% tip, the bill came to about $75 a person which considering the great time we had was a BARGAIN! Keep up the good work folks. Pros: Fantastic steaks & deserts, great service Posted 04/12/08 Great Fillet Minion By nasim777 I went here for dinner with my friends and we had a great time. We got a margherita pizza as an appetizer and it was great for a simple thin crust pizza. I also got the fillet minion for dinner and it was delicious. It was cooked perfectly...very tender and juicy. Overall we had a great experience. The restaurant is fairly small and intimate. I definitely recommend it as a date place. Pros: Great food, service, and atomostphere Posted 01/05/08
