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.

    Overall just OK experience. Food was generally pretty good. Hors d’Oeuvres were great. Entrees were a mixed bag. One of five entrees, the Scallops, came out very cold. Should have sent it back but didn’t want to delay the group. Poularde Lasagna should have been great but was overly sauced and it overpowered the flavors. Greens on the Chicken Schnitzel were way over-dressed but chicken was tasty. Burger and Dover Sole were excellent. Service was pretty good albeit a little slow to get started but Precious was great! Price / value is poor. A few dishes were way overpriced. Dover Sole and Poularde Lasagna as the prime examples.

    We had a wonderful experience celebrating our anniversary at Little Sparrow. The food was fantastic (we had the frites, poulet, scallops), the service was fantastic (we event received a customized menu for our anniversary), and the ambience was very romantic (the venue is really great for special occasions). The restaurant is located Westside Provisions, so there is ample parking and great to walk around pre or post-dinner. I would definitely go back and highly recommend.

    We had a truly lovely evening. The food was indulgent and delicious. The french fries with raclette and the ice cream sundae with olive oil and fennel pollen are not to be missed. The service overall was exceptional, and our waitress was an absolute delight.

    The onion soup and NY strip were fantastic. As good as the food was, the service was even better. Every person we met (especially Yancey) was so nice and helpful. We will definitely be back.

    Had a reservation and got there 15 minutes earlier and they were able to kindly seat us. Place is gorgeous and ambiance was warm. Bri took care of us and was spectacular, super patient, attentive and thorough on explaining the menu to us. Food was fresh, tasty and beautifully presented. Don’t skip the soft serve with olive oil, it was incredible!

    Little Sparrow is beautiful and very popular! The food was pretty good. It was not as great as most of Ford Fry’s dishes. However, I ordered the chicken and I probably should have ordered something a little more exciting. Our table was ready when we got there, so we were seated right away. Our waiter was very friendly and as attentive as he could be. However, I felt like the establishment was overcrowded and understaffed. It had nothing to do with our waiter being inattentive, he just seemed to have lots of tables and was spread too thin. With that being said, we would have ordered more wine, a dessert and coffee. However, it took so long to get bread and our first drinks that we decided to order dinner and go elsewhere for an after dinner drink and dessert. However, it’s a very special place and we will be back for sure! A week night might be a little less busy.
