    I went for lunch on a whim , having gone two weeks ago with someone for the first time , to try some different dishes. They were all great - the Owl is pretty chill - everyone is nice and they had no problem giving this single diner a table instead of the bar 🎬🎥✍️👀👽

    Always amazing at Joey’s Little Owl. Service is friendly! I asked for a Mocktail & after a few suggestions he suggested lemonade which was so scrumptious & just the right sweet & tart flavor. My husband & I ordered a bunch of things told them to bring them out as they were ready. They split our salad, brought extra plates without having to ask! Meatballs were the usual fantastic & eggplant was delicious! Every time we go we have a fabulous time. We love all of there restaurants! Thank You again & we be back soon!

    A lovely place with delicious food and good service. I indicated on OpenTable that a friend was celebrating her birthday, and they gave a sweet birthday beignet with a candle at the end. Nice touch!
