In May of 1999, Bill Chait, Danilo Terribili and chef Jeff Sladicka partnered to open this Studio City restaurant specializing in mesquite-grilled meat and seafood. The second floor hosts a sleek black lounge and a dining room framed by wine racks, but the real action is downstairs, in a boisterous dining room with views of the exhibition kitchen. At lunch, expect to find entertainment execs. During the week, Spark draws locals, and on weekends, it’s a dater’s playground. Signature dishes include Roman-style pizzas, grilled Atlantic salmon, and steaks. No matter what you order, save room for the house-baked apple walnut cobbler.

Review Title: Great French Cuisine
Ordered the tasting menu and there's plenty of option for our courses. Chef gave us a small starter excluded from the menu and it was very delicious. Onion soup lover should order their "sweet onion-parmesan soup", it was gorgeous! Also the foie gras was delicious, too!! I would go back to Melisse again in the future!
