It's so interesting to read the reviews ranging from great to ""don't go here."" We ate at Sparks eleven years ago when it first opened and thought it was very good. We just don't live on that side of the hill so we don't often look for a place to eat in that neighborhood. Now we ate lunch there this September (2010) and the food was excellent. The service was very good but most importantly, the food was excellent. The restaurant is very clean and quite reasonably priced with a good menu. I've always had a hard time finding a decent restaurant in the Valley including Ventura Boulevard. This is a great find with a normal menu.
