I booked a bar reservation last minute to Little Owl to round out my birthday plans. I was taken excellent care of by my waitress who made sure to make me feel welcome and special. I was given a thorough explanation of the menu, help finding a wine i enjoyed, and a candle in my dessert to to it all of. I highly recommend Little Owl.

Service was incredible and every dish was on point. We couldn’t stop raving about the butternut squash ravioli. Took a gamble on this restaurant for my friend’s birthday and will definitely be coming back.
