    The food and the service at Little Owl is still as good as ever but it has now become like all the other restaurants where you have to scream to talk to your friends. . Not sure when or why they decided to start playing Disco music ( which I love when appropriate) . Sad, it was always a favorite.

    The only criticism is the grits were too watery (but still pretty good). All else great

    Basically the perfect small, charming restaurant in the West Village. My only complaint is that the lasagna had not been sufficiently reheated and thus was on the cool side when it reached our table.

    Excellent brunch experience in their new dining room a couple doors down from the main restaurant. Food and vibes were excellent and our waitress was so sweet and stellar. Would absolutely return ASAP.

    They've just expanded and we sat in the new dining room. Both are comparable and offer the same selections. Very quaint place in a quiet area. The food was great with excellent variety. Service was excellent, very attentive. We were there for lunch but no doubt a great destination for dinner too.

    So lovely! I only give it four stars because it’s a bit of a tight squeeze — tables are quite close. But I really loved the food and staff!
