Our meal was delicious and attention to every detail was flawless. Our server, bar tender, wait staff were spot on including the young man who wipes spills and brings different utensils between courses - very attentive, polite and impressive. We loved the birthday touch hand-written card with decorated envelope, berry sorbet with candle and the chef’s visit and birthday wishes.

About the restaurant

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.
