Highly recommend. One of my go to spots when going out in New York City. Great staff and great food at a reasonable price. I love the atmosphere and it always feels like a second home to me. If you go for food definitely try the Brussels sprouts. They are the best I have ever had.

We came in as a group of six people, and every single appetizer was amazing! We got the pear and pistachio salad, the mussels, and the brussel sprouts. For entrees, we got the special, scallops, which were ok. We also got the katsu sandwich, steak frites, and crab linguine. The crab linguine was the winner! Everything was wonderful though! The cocktails were incredible as well! We got the Paloma, the Alfonzo, and the Harry Styles and the Spa Day. My personal favorite was the Alfonzo! The service and vibe were great as well!! In addition, the best part of the meal was how affordable it was!! Definitely would come back and we’re from New Orleans and huge foodies!

What a pleasant surprise, I've lived in Soho for many decades. Thought I'd give this place a try. Mushroom Rigatoni was amazing. The Brussel Sprouts were delicious( wish I had the recipe) the service was very attentive and engaging. I left around 8pm , the place was about 95% woman, and gorgeous. Where are the guys ?

We finally made it to Little Ways in SoHo, and it did not disappoint! It has that perfect mix of energy and intimacy. Warm lighting, great music, and a crowd that feels effortlessly cool but not pretentious. The kind of spot where you instantly relax the minute you sit down. The GM Tyler and his staff clearly cared about creating a great experience. And a great experience was had!
So let’s get into it. The food here isn’t just good, it’s thoughtful with perfectly balanced flavors, textures, and that satisfying feeling when every bite just makes sense. Every dish was unforgettable!
We started off with the Oysters that were incredibly fresh, briny, and bright. A clean, oceanic start to the meal that set the tone perfectly. The Roasted Brussels were crisp with that deep, nutty flavor and finished with a surprising light, tangy and warming sauce. The flavor made you forget you were eating vegetables. The Crab Linguini was absolute perfection, light yet rich, with just the right touch of sweetness from the crab and a silky sauce that tied it all together. The cheeseburger? A knockout. Juicy, perfectly seasoned, it melted in your mouth. The kind of burger that stops the conversation for a minute. Then came dessert! The Affogato was a dreamy mix of hot espresso and creamy vanilla ice cream. The sorbets were light, refreshing, and the perfect way to end such a rich, flavorful meal. Overall every dish felt intentional. Nothing was overdone and nothing was missing. Just perfectly balanced bites from start to finish. Easily one of the best meals I’ve had in the city!
We will surely see you again Little Ways, and we will be dreaming of you until then!
Cheers!

Amazing food at great prices. The service was attentive and the atmosphere interesting and moody. The music was good and lyricless which allows one to focus on conversation with their guests. Great spot!

Little Ways is a rare find — a restaurant where every dish reflects the kitchen’s deep love for authentic gastronomy. The flavors are beautifully balanced, the presentation refined yet effortless, and the attention to detail remarkable. You can truly feel the chefs’ passion in every bite.
With its warm atmosphere and exceptional food, Little Ways captures what great dining is all about: creativity, care, and genuine joy in cooking.

Food so out of control good. Crab pasta. Mussels. Pistachio salad. Halibut. Mushroom rigatoni. Every single one a knock out. I’m obsessed. Vibe is so cozy and fun as well. 10/10

I came in to experience the eclectic atmosphere. Was seated right away. The elegance of the machine this place is, left me quite without words. The mechanism of dropping plates, collecting napkin bands, the quality of food. Top notch.

A strange experience: The body guard at the door told us to give him $ 100 to go in and he then offered us “Molly” and coke for $350. They did not let my friends in.
The bodyguard at the door let 4 white guys in and told us 3 non-white males we have to pay him 100 or buy “Molly” from him. I’ve been living in Manhattan for 15 years and never experienced anything like this. A bar that makes non-white males buy drugs or pay cash to go in. I’m still surprised by this experience. I hope it’s just this bodyguard, not the policy of the place. I hope this helps :)

This was just an okay experience. I was expecting a more fun vibe for a Saturday night. The steak frites was super chewy and gristle. We did really like the quinoa salad though!
Um ignore the bad reviews. Idk what was wrong the day they came but lemme tell you…this is a meal that I just KNOW will remain in my memories. The first bite of the crab linguine pasta sent me to a different dimension. We also ordered steak n frites, halloumi, mussels, baked and fresh oysters, and Cesar salad. I would literally reorder everything except for the halloumi (it was good but I’ve had better) also our server was so accommodating and sweet. We had the best time and the drinks were fabulous. Will be daydreaming of this meal😍 also the decor was a vibe✨

this place is such a hidden gem! It’s so unassuming but every single thing we had was executed to perfection. The steak frites had just the right level of sear, and we opted for the side of roasted garlic and onions which was absolutely decadent. The mussels were not only delicious but the portion size was amazing value! Plus they served it with perfectly toasted bread as a side, which was necessary to sop up the sauce which we probably would have just drank if not for the bread. We also got the crab linguine which was delicious - my only regret was being too full at this point to eat it all. We ended with the strawberry sherbet and tropical sorbet - light, refreshing and just the right way to cap a delightful meal.
Can’t wait to go back to try everything else on the menu!
