   This is a lovely restaurant with good food and a great staff. Unfortunately, the experience was marred by the incessant and loud playing of rap/hip hop music throughout the dinner. We complained to staff, but we’re told that the owner “had all the power” and even tho they receive complaints, he wants the vibe of the restaurant to be modern Italian, which he has determined means the playing of this inappropriate music. We could see hearing this music in one of the lounges, but it’s just not what we want to hear while enjoying an expensive dinner at a nice restaurant. We will not be back.

   We didn't receive the birthday dessert which was kind of the point on going. I wanted to make my girlfriend feel special with a nice dessert but never got it. Other than that we had a good experience

   Weird smell in the restaurant, like sewer…the management deducted off the bill, but that really put a damper on the whole evening. There was also some interesting service issues.

   The ambiance was nice, food portion was extremely small for the price. Drinks were also pricey. Because of overpriced food portions will probably not be back unless for just drinks.

   Loved the place and the ambiance. The food was ok, the service was poor. Asked for a bottle of water, the waiter said they were out. Ordered wine, didn’t taste well. Then ordered some food, he came back and said they were out of Branzino. We were still enjoying our drinks, their employee approached to us at 10:55pm and told us to leave because the restaurant is closed. I’ve been in this restaurant a year ago and everything was excellent the food and the service.

   SparrowResponded on January 21, 2023Hi Armine, We appreciate your feedback on your previous dining experience. I understand your concerns you've expressed, and we will work on those issues for future experiences. We are looking forward to having you back and trying our amazing branzino.

    Overall, the restaurant is beautiful. It’s located inside the Figueroa hotel and has beautiful ambiance, luxe feel, and definitely looks expensive. Our server was very sweet. We came for my birthday dinner with a few friends and he was very friendly and attentive to our needs. The food was okay at best. I ordered the wagyu alla vodka pizza and it tasted super plain and bland. Barely had any substance. My boyfriend ordered the bolognese and it was also okay. Not bad, just okay. The drinks, on the other hand were beautiful and balanced. Presentation was amazing, They tasted delicious. Everyone was satisfied with them. I don’t know if I would come back. The drinks made me think maybe.

    Absolutely stunning interior and exterior. The curation of vibes at Sparrow is unmatchable. Food was perfectly executed. I ordered the smoked gin and not only was it delicious it’s an interactive experience. If you are into deserts the olive oil cake was superb. Highly recommend! 10/10

    The food is VERY PRICEY!!! In addition to this, there is no free parking. We spent $18 on valet parking, and on the bill there was a BENEFITD SURCHARGE that was never explained to us. I guess the restaurant can't pay their employees a living wage, so the customer is stuck with that. The food wasn't that bad. The waitress missed our drink and we had to tell her to take it off the bill. She was kind and went ahead and changed our appetizer when we let her know that the octopus was overcooked. The decore was very nice and the place had a great vibe. I won't come back again.

    Sparrow has a decent menu selection, a very nice setting, and the desire to be seen as an upscale dining experience but comes up very short of expectations. At this price point there are countless better options in town, including other hotel options. The food quality was good, with the exception of the truffle pizza, which despite the ingredient list was surprisingly bland. Pasta’s ordered had good flavor, which would have been the highlight of the visit, but the cocktail menu is actually the most positive note. The most disappointing part of the experience was the service offered. The level of attention offered by the serving staff was on par with a casual chain restaurant, there was no contact outside of asking what we would like to order. The best service was provided by the food expeditor that delivered our dishes to the table, but the server was inattentive for the duration of the evening. This restaurant seems to wish to be perceived as an upscale dining experience but is operated by management and staff that either lack care or experience.

    SparrowResponded on January 12, 2023Hi Pablo, Thank you for your feedback.

    Bought two $20 drinks. Didn’t have dry ice so presentation was ruined. Out of bread pudding. They forgot our dessert. For the price, Sparrow was disappointing and I would not recommend it.

    My son and I had a wonderful meal before the Stevie Wonder House Full of Toys Concert. The atmosphere, service, food and cocktails were excellent! The Apulia cocktail was amazing— one of my top five cocktails of all time. The Abruzzo was also delicious and beautifully presented. A wonderful experience overall!
