I was upset that the old Engine 12 had disappeared until I tried the new cuisine... Incredible! Huge improvement, try everything. Very flavorful and well presented. Adding to the new menu, Tymothy was a great server. I was much impressed!

The new decor is amazing. It's a good place for group outings.The new menu has a lot of options to share. The calamari is my favorite!We went right after work, around 5 PM. The bar tender was okay. Forgot our orders couple times but maybe because there were too many of us.They have a nice outside seating and I would imagine it would be perfect for evenings and late night outings. I haven't been that late yet.

My husband's family is from Barbados and we've been searching for a restaurant like Spark for a minute. Everything we ordered was delicious - especially the mac&cheese, lacquered chicken, and mango chow - and well priced. Service overall was excellent and our server Leticia (sp?) was awesome - so friendly, made great recommendations, and helped us move inside as the weather turned. We can't wait to come back!!

Came here with a friend during a trip to Washington. The food was amazing! We tried the fried curry chicken and calamari, the best I have ever tasted. Our servers were super friendly as well! I will definitely come back if I am ever in Washington again and would recommend this place to friends!

Not your generic firehouse pub, this place has a cool, traditional aura that makes use of its antique setting while serving mouth watering Caribbean dishes. If you're in the market for a quirky but impressive private event space, ask if you can get a quick tour of the second floor.

The service is very personal... Comfort food with a modern twist and flavors. Try the rum punch. And I really dig the ambiance.

The red snapper is everything! Wasn't expecting the whole fish lol but can't get enough of it and brunch is just as unique...props to the chef. I always appreciate a good presentation and Spark delivers with their dishes from appetizer down to the dessert.

Cool little venue for small music/dance events. Fun original architecture. The upstairs bar has a sorry beer selection and awful well liquor. The main bar downstairs may be better.

Phenomonal food and atmosphere. The food is served to share and dig in. The flavours on the meat are bold and distinctive, cooked to perfection. You'll want to go back for more. The mac & cheese, and waygu beef are family favourites. So impressed with Engine 12's revamp! Def. a must do when playing in downtown, for dinner and cocktails!
