                                                      Amazing food as always. Took my mother here who was visiting and she made a comment that, “she might be the best waitress I have ever had in my life. And the food was amazing.” Thank you for another wonderful night.

Would please a foodie. Excellent service and wine advice and a fun playlist for an enjoyable evening. Seafood and steak specials were excellent, as were scallops, meatball sliders (though they tasted like a sausage/meatball hybrid), and chicken was tender and perfectly cooked. Will definitely go back. Not a full bar but a beer/wine menu.

                                                      My family and I have been dining at Little Owl for years, first when my wife and I were dating, and now with our daughter. Little Owl always delivers — the magical combination of amazing food and kind and conscientious staff.

                                                      A lovely hidden gem in the West Village. Excellent and courteous service. Very comfortable atmosphere. Cozy if you will. The food was outstanding! Excellent flavor profiles, and farm to table fresh. The risotto, the crispy skate, and the pork chop hit the high notes! Will always return to this sweet spot in the village. Bravo!
