Birthday celebration for my 28 year old. Eclectic group of diners that's all loved the food and service. We ordered a variety of food to share, all of which exceeded expectations! Just a great place and reasonable value. We will be back!!

We had such an amazing night here with 8 of us total. Great food pleasing to vegetarian, pescatarian and meat eaters alike. The service was SO efficient and friendly. We shared starters and each ordered mains and everyone was so pleased. They also had great cocktails with a small but good bubbly and wine/beer list. We will be back and we suggest you go as well!

One of my favorite places in New York!! This is the only place I've found that offers a full Turkish breakfast (SO much food - a truly incredible deal!) with all the ingredients fresh and delicious. The staff is also absolutely lovely, and willing to answer all my questions (and even tell me where they get some of their ingredients). I lived in Istanbul for a while, and after I returned to the US I spent months trying to satisfy my craving for authentic Turkish food - this is it!

Absolutely fantastic. I was very surprised at how fresh and delicious the ingredients were for all the food. Very worth the reasonable prices, and the vibes are really chill and the servers were all very friendly. I love Turkish food and this was a great modern spin on it. Couldn't recommend it higher, and will definitely go back.

We loved our dinner at Little Rascal. We sat right at the window, which is definitely a must when eating here. Our favorite was the phyllo rolls with feta and strawberry jam - absolutely delicious!

We made a reservation for 3 people and ate our dinner. While we were enjoying our drinks, one of our friends wanted to join us and have dinner. We asked the waitress if we could change our table (we got cold). She said she needed to ask this to the owner. We explained the situation to the owner and he wasn't willing to change our table. He mumbled that we finished our dinner. During this conversation, we immediately realized that we shouldn't stay there anymore and pay more money to this restaurant which has a terrible customer service. Each of us ordered meatballs. I came to this restaurant before and ate meatballs. The meatballs tasted much better at that time. My stomach wasn't good after this time. We are not planning to go back to this restaurant.

Little Rascal was the perfect restaurant for a birthday dinner with friends. The service was fantastic and the food was fresh and delicious, perfect for sharing a bunch of different things.

Cute little space in Soho. I walked by it all the time and thought it was just a bar. But this small bar-like space is actually a restaurant with amazing Mediterranean food! Everything was yummy. The cocktails are also very good and they pair well with the food. Highly recommended.

I like this place. Cute and charming. Nice staff. but I think the brunch pre-fix menu is overpriced. Especially since not just one person can order it but the entire person must. Yes, you get full and it's good. But you eat lots of bread.. of course you get full. Ive been there with 2 ppl and 4 ppl. The amount of food is the same. So charging $35/person without alcohol ($45 by the time you get the bill), is a bit overpriced for what you get. May not seem like much by NYC standards for price but when look at the total, It was not worth $200 for brunch. Maybe just order a la cart.

This place is a gem! We were 13 people that threw a suprise birthday dinner. Even thought the place is pretty small we managed to fit comfortable into a cute corner table. The staff were quick, friendly and super helpful. The food was great, we had vegeterians, gluten and milk protein intolerant folks who all found something to eat. We shared plenty of dishes, got really full and it came out at around $85 per person inncluding tips and drinks!!! I couldn't have asked for anything better for this special occation! We'll definetly be back!!!
Beware reserving on Open Table. Halfway through the bottle of wine we ordered, the owner's brother told us we couldn't sit without ordering food. Made us feel super uncomfortable and even snatched our wine off the table. We ultimately left without paying. Worst restaurant experience in NYC hands down. BEWARE!

I went on a third date at the Little Rascal and the ambiance was perfect. The place was alive with people, though not too many. The staff was friendly and attentive. We even received free dessert! Try the lamb chops and the Manti. Share a carafe of wine !

Out of menu items at 7:30 when restaurant was half empty. Mediocre food. Way overhyped on reviews. Had a few hygiene issues and owner was belligerent, hostile and unprofessional when I tried to address them. Very unpleasant dining experience.
As soon as you walk in, you get the feeling that the interior was designed with great care to create that intimate and friendly vibe. The fixed brunch menu consisting of traditional Turkish breakfast dishes which were fresh and carefully prepared. I want to point out how friendly the host and staff are. Will definitely visit Little Rascal again, and maybe try the dinner options this time :)) Thank you for the wonderful experience !
A cozy restaurant with amazing food. Everything was fresh and tasty. The service was great. The restaurant felt warm, inviting, and it was easy to relax in. I would definitely go back.
