Price: Very Expensive
• Fusion / Eclectic • Durham

Little Bull is sincere, nostalgic comfort food, inspired by the palates of first-generation immigrant kids. Pocho cuisine is not a gimmick. Like Oscar, it’s a little bull-headed, but with no bullshit. It means more than loaded terms like “New American” or “modern Mexican.” And it’s authentic to Chef’s personal experience.“American food is undefined. But it’s been designated to certain ideas and people. It’s actually evolving, as much as our landscape is a melting pot. As much as my own identity as a first-generation American and chef.”Pocho started as a term used by people in Mexico to poke fun at the “American” kids who speak Spanglish. At Little Bull, pocho cuisine showcases the evolution of being a chef in America, inspired by every immigrant and their growing influence on our food.

    The diverse offerings on the Valentine’s Day prixe fixe menu looked fabulous. Everything was delicious though the filet mignon was disappointing for its recipient. With that exception the clean plates for amuse bouche, appetizers, halibut entrees and three different desserts were outstanding. Service was great.

    Little Bull is my boyfriend and l’s go to. It never lets us down and this time was no different! The food was absolutely delicious! The ceviche is always a favorite of ours and every time we order it, it is show stopping. I could not recommend this restaurant enough and always bring friends and family there when they visit. Can’t wait to go back :)

    We love this restaurant! The food is delicious, the presentation lovely, the service friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. We were celebrating Valentine’s Day a day early, as were seemingly most of the diners as bookings fill up early, and there were roses on the table, a special enlarged menu and Valentine desert for two. Thank you Parizade for caring so much for your customers! The lamb shank and gigante plaki was one of the best entrees I’ve ever had. Looking forward to next time!
