Really appreciate your hospitality and making the event work so well for us. The room was perfect and food was excellent. Also have to compliment your staff, they were just super, very friendly and helpful. They worked around all of the talking and speech and just were right on.

All in all a super fun evening had by all. I would not have changed a thing.

Thanks again for making it a wonderful night for us, one we will all not soon forget.”

“Things were great last night! The food received many compliments, as did the service. I thought it was interesting that today I spoke with some show attendees who went to a dinner at Morton's, and said they thought the service was awful. All our customers that I talked to said your staff was great. Congratulations on running a fine operation. When my travels bring me to LA again, I will be sure to have dinner at your restaurant.”

The party was a big success. Thank you very much for your help and assistance. The room looked great. Food was wonderful. Hope the kids weren't too wild. If you ever need a recommendation please let us know.

Sam, our 10 year old, wants to have his party there in 3 years!

Happy 10 Year Anniversary Spark!!!

Spark Woodfire Grill was opened in Studio City, California, in May 1999 by Partners Bill Chait, Danilo Terribili and Jeff Sladicka. 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.

In 2002, Spark opened in Huntington Beach in a 2nd floor location with a large terrace and an open fire pit with a panoramic view of the Pacific ocean and the Huntington Beach Pier. This location, open only for dinner, seats 180 guests inside and outside on the heated terrace that is available for year round dining. Chef/Partner Tom Shields and his wife Kathleen oversee this Spark. Spark in Huntington Beach has a more expansive seafood section on the menu and also features a 1600 degree steak broiler made famous by other well known steakhouses (which we won't mention). In addition to an extensive wine list, this Spark has become known for its Martini list of over 50 different specialty Martinis.

In 2004, Spark Woodfire Grill opened in Beverly Hills (adjacent) in a location that previously housed an Italian restaurant called Orlando Orsini. Since this building was purchased by Spark and its partners, there was an opportunity to do something very special with the remodel and transformation of this location. After a year of design and construction, Spark opened a unique tri-level restaurant with three distinctive environments for dining and private parties. Spark Beverly Hills seats over 200 guests and can accommodate up to 250 guests for private parties, special events or receptions.
