Our server tried to sneakily upcharge us several times. Once he realized we weren’t having it, he stopped checking in on us (the irony is we would have ordered more food and drinks if he had). Don’t be fooled by the “yam fries” - they are just the same sweet potato fries you can get at any dive bar but at 3x the price. My partner ordered the fried chicken sandwich, which was just 3 cutlets of chicken melded together with breading, which is definitely not what you expect for the price. It was dry and flavorless on top of that. The short rib was good and worth getting. It was tender and flavorful, as was the polenta. We probably won’t be back, the prices were high for what we received and the level of service our server gave us.

Just not very good overall. Mostly poor service, we had our appetizer (Burrata Avacado, best thing we had) before we had our drinks. Steak sandwich was ok, chicken sandwich was cold. Didn't clear our plates until the bill came, which included a fee for using a credit card? I paid cash and left.

We tried Sparrow for the first time. The sword fish was one of the best preparations I have ever had of this fish that I find difficult to prepare because it easily becomes too dry. They used quality fish and a nice sauce that produced a delicious meal. My wife had the eggplant parmigiana and sausage dish that was unique and tasty. She is a lover of eggplant parmigiana and gave it 5 stars. The service was good. We will be returning.

First time eating at Sparrow. We found the service to be very poor. The staff were overwhelmed. Waiter took some time to come take our order and also awhile after we were done. The food was good, the drinks were $20 and were mostly ice in a small glass. The one word I have is VALUE. The prices were out of control and very much not worth it. We aren’t coming back.

Food and service was amazing! They sat our group of 8 next to the live music. The music was a perfect amount of loud where we could still talk to each other. Portions were decent size and we left with a full tummy! We had a 4 course meal and would recommend again for NYE.

We found this restaurant on Open Table with availability for seating in the bar on New Year’s Eve. We did not know about the restaurant. Everything about our evening was outstanding: ambiance, friendliness of owner and staff, service, music, and food. What a find! We will definitely go back.
