Sparrow has a wonderful, calming, and very peaceful ambiance. The service is outstanding. Our server was Ben. He was very attentive and provided good suggestions regarding menu items. Sparrow has a very open, nature-themed outdoor eating section on the East side and on the North side of the restaurant. Indoors, they have live moss walls that add a very soothing and green touch to the interior decor. The food is very good. We tried the Rigatoni plate (Ben's recommendation) and it was a delicious balance of sausage, herbs, and a creamy sauce. I had the duck, it was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, just the way duck should be served. My partner had the Halibut, he said it was a bit bland tasting. Halibut doesn't really have a great flavor in and of itself, so one must rely heavily on the chefs exquisite touch to bring out the richness of the fish. My suggestion would be to pass on the halibut unless you want something that's on the bland side. We had the mussels and the sausage starter, it was really tasty. I wanted to try the burger but it's only served at lunch. Happy hour is everyday from 3-5pm (we missed it on this first visit but we will be back). All in all it was a great dining experience. It's pretty spendy so be prepared to spend about $300 on a good dinner for two with drinks and a starter and a good tip for the server. I would highly recommend SPARROW for a special occasion. The staff at Sparrow was incredible. Everyone we encountered seemed to enjoy their job and performed it well. It was a pleasure dining there.

Buffets are hard! Sparrow did an excellent job of providing many options with broad appeal. The addition of entrée options (eggs Benedict and other made to order items) made this buffet special. The service was very good. Some additional attention to detail would have elevated the experience (example paper menu had a coffee stain, extra hot water for tea provided before requested). The musician was quite good - but the acoustics were best in the restroom - distorted in restaurant (and a bit loud). Recommend - but come really hungry to take advantage of the food options!

It was our first visit to Sparrow and we really enjoyed it. Kind of reminds me of an old school steak house. Rib Eye was one of the best I’ve ever had. Cooked perfectly and the meat itself was perfection. The service was efficient and very friendly. I highly recommend!

The menu and pricing is upscale, however the ambience, food and waitstaff are just “ok.” There’s nothing groundbreaking, to justify any of the prices; it’s mid.
