About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Great for creative cocktails
Helmed by Executive Chef Bob Ryan, Little Sparrow is a neighborhood "continental" restaurant from Ford Fry. Inspired by Parisian bistros and Brooklyn’s favorite taverns, Little Sparrow picks up the mantle from its beloved predecessor, JCT Kitchen and Bar to serve the Westside in a new incarnation. Named in honor of superstar French chanteuse Edith Piaf (Fry’s Howell Mill Road steakhouse, Marcel, is named after Piaf’s lover, boxer Marcel Cerdan) the menu presents timeless Brasserie classics and simple, indulgent fare including an entire section dedicated to extraordinary "Frites." Dinner is framed by a top-flight cocktail program and a superbly curated wine list, as well as tableside service meant to make every guest feel pampered.

    The food and service were terrific, as always. Sam, our server, did a great job, and Precious, who has handled our table several times in the past and become our friend, stopped by to welcome us and check on us. The hostess and other servers who helped were all friendly and very helpful. All in all, a great experience.

    This was our first time at Little Sparrow and we chose it for a special date night. I went in with no expectations but just excited to try new things. Our waitress, Z, was truly lovely and elevated the experience more so. She never steered us wrong in her recommendations and the food was genuinely so lovely. I would highly recommend Little Sparrow to a friend and would come back again next time I’m in Atlanta.

    This was, without question, some of the finest French cuisine I’ve ever experienced. Every dish was impeccably prepared, and the service was equally exceptional.
