Food is not bad, but have had much better - beer menu is extremely limited. Cost of food seems a bit high for what you get, but these days everything is expensive so hard to judge on pricing. Good place to check out once, but would probably never return

Incredible every time!! We dream about the French onion soup. And no matter how full we are, we never skip the soft serve.

Great place for a special occasion. The quality of food is paired with a reasonable price making it a real option to pop in and grab a drink and bite at the bar, if you can get a seat. Service is great. We were guided through the menu and potential wine pairings that really elevated the experience.

I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant for my birthday. From the moment we walked in, the hostesses were rude and unwelcoming. Our server seemed irritated when I wasn’t ready to order my appetizer and entree all at once. While waiting for our drinks, my friend and I tried to take a few photos at the table to celebrate my birthday, and a man sitting nearby rudely told us that this wasn’t the establishment to be taking photos in, making us feel like we didn’t belong—even though we were being quiet and not bothering anyone.
The atmosphere felt very uptight and made us feel out of place, which added to the discomfort. After that, our server never returned, and a random server brought us our check as if to rush us out. I never even received my meal.
A manager named TK did approach us and was kind and understanding, offering to move us to another part of the restaurant, but by that point, my birthday dinner was already ruined. While TK tried to make things right, the overall experience was extremely uncomfortable and disappointing.

My wife, my 10-month old daughter and I came in last night (Friday) around 5:30. Our daughter comes with us to restaurants all the time and is almost always great! Last night she was not having it… But the FOH was so great - they gave all the smiles and brought her a little toy and even a little plate of sliced up banana! Also, those burgers are INSANELY GOOD. Best burger we’ve had in Atlanta. We’ll be back again and again!

#littlesparrow oh my goodness! Amazing meal and the service was over the top. Danielle was the sweetest server ever. I’ve gone mostly gluten free and never getting to enjoy the amazing bread was so sad. She told me to try their gluten free that everyone raved about it. I’ve never tasted something gluten free that was so good. The chef sent me home with a bag of their special flower. I can’t tell you how special and kind that was.

I had high hopes for Little Sparrow since it’s “Michelin recommended”, but honestly, it wasn’t great. The bread was super hard and didn’t taste good, and the scallops were underwhelming. Fries were alright. The quality was just overall lacking for the price point. I also didn’t feel too well afterward, which wasn’t fun. On the plus side, the service was really good, the staff was friendly and attentive. But overall, I expected a lot more for the Michelin recommendation.

We were excited to try Little Sparrow but walked away disappointed. The service was spectacular - that alone made this a 5 star, luxurious experience. The atmosphere was also nice… so when we sat down, our expectations were high. However, the food was quite disappointing.
The good dishes were the crudo, harbison and poisson. But nothing particularly special about them… the poisson really could’ve been elevated with some rice or toast.
The arugula was definitely not worth it. Maybe it’s our fault bc their menu does just call it “arugula” but we interpreted it as an arugula salad. For $16, it literally is a pile of undressed arugula… 3-4 thinly shaved slices of parmesan and a few pieces of red onion. Boring.
The ricotta gnudi was equally not worth it - 3 pieces that were bland and needed every drop of the sauce to make it edible. At $7 a piece, money would’ve been better spent on something else.
There’s a lot of competition for restaurants in this area. I’d recommend another place.

The service is spot on - every waiter we have encountered is knowledgeable about the menu And sometimes down to the preparation of the dish. My husband contends they have one of the best hamburgers. Their French onion is a staple - almost a meal unto itself.

Had a fantastic dinner at the bar. The onion soup, one of the best I’ve ever had and the burger and fries did not disappoint. I can’t remember the name of the bourbon cocktail but it was delicious. This was my first visit since it was JCT Kitchen (oh how I miss that place).

My boyfriend surprised me with date night at little sparrow. We started our experience with some yummy drink options. Then we went onto our appetizers which were the French onion soup and the frites, very delicious options I must add. Then we had our mains, I had the tortellini and my boyfriend had the spaghetti which we were both extremely happy with those options. Then we got cheesecake and a fancy soft serve for dessert which was the perfect end to a delicious meal. The whole ambience of this restaurant is wonderful and the server was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and helped direct us. We will be back to visit and will definitely be recommending to everyone!
