    Basque cheesecake
    Andy X.

    TLDR: Appetizers were good, fries were great, mains were kinda mid Came here as group of 4 to use chase sapphire reserve credits. We did family style and shared several apps and mains: Free bread service: tough crust but tasty 7/10 Shrimp: good flavor well cooked little salty hot v with bread. Sauce is fantastic 8.3 French onion soup: good sweet onion flavor, good with bread, a little c salty 8.2 Clams: very good clean ocean taste, not even usually a clam guy, minor grit: 8 Fries have some of the best texture I've had, inside wish was a little fluffier 9/10 Mezzaluna: inside was a bit dry, main flavor was just meaty but not enough seasoning. 5.3/10 Duck confit: good flavor, dry and mealy I think I just don't like duck confit it's always mid 6/10 Scallop: well cooked, good flavor, slightly too b salty. Vegetables are really good. Not as good as aria Best entree 8.3 Burger: good dry age flavor, kinda hard to eat, a little dry. NFA is better. Wish it had pickle slices 7.5/10 Cheesecake has very good flavor, not overly rich with cream cheese, nice bitter note, little salty 8/10 Olive oil ice cream: wish it was actual olive oil not just drizzled in olive oil. Good ice cream though and high quality olive oil 8.1 Pear cider: might as well have just been apple hard cider, too dry for me Fantastic service though, and again the fries are very very good.

    French onion soup
    Courtney T.

    Ambiance and decor was absolutely beautiful. It was elegant and moody with dark lights and beautiful small touches. Our server was extremely knowledgeable and had great suggestions. French onion soup was delightful as was the complimentary baguette with salted butter. Neither of us were huge fans of either entree. I ordered the truffle tortellini and expected it to be truffle forward based on the waiter's suggestion. Honestly I felt it lack truffle flavor and was more cheesy and rich. The steak frite was odd- it's less of the traditional steak frite as the steak is chopped and formed into a patty. The flavor was good but it tasted like eating a hamburger. The frites were a bit over done and mostly just crispy shells. The dessert was delectable, the homemade soft serve with peaches and marshmallow was delicious and portion size was perfect for two people to split. Overall an enjoyable meal!

    Came here for a date whom I later dumped, but we had a great time! I ordered the Dover sole. They brought it out whole and deboned it at the table. It was very light, flavorful and flakey. Random but the bathroom is a girls dream. It's such a loungey space with accoutrements for your breath. The waiter was super helpful with making a choice and forcing me to try something different. And he was right because the Sole was delicious

    Marked menu for GF/GFO
    Jenna D.

    came here for the first time this past weekend and it quickly rose to my favorite restaurant in Atlanta OMG. So dark and cozy inside the restaurant everything was sooooo delicious. To start, they brought me a freshly baked loaf of GF bread and my own plate of salted butter when everyone else was eating bread. THEN I received a special marked up menu with the options that would be safe for me to eat. Had the scallops and they were divine. Also had a side of strawberries with creme and wowwwww. I could've eaten 5 of those bowls My husband got the mezzaluna which the staff described as little raviolis in Parmesan broth and he loved it. Everything 10/10, spectacular, no notes

    Third time really was the charm at Little Sparrow I had made reservations three times before this and kept having to cancel because of my husband... so this time I basically dragged him in--and let me tell you, it was SO worth it. He was literally speechless by the end (which says everything). We did it right: Bread & butter service (obviously ), French onion soup that was rich and perfect, clams that disappeared way too fast, and the burger... if you know, you KNOW. She was THICCC and absolutely unreal. And then the grand finale: Snickers soft serve. Oh. My. God. 10/10, no notes. Already planning my next reservation--and this time, no cancellations

    I fell in love with the ambiance of this restaurant. Drinking champagne, laughing with my husband, eating amazing food = perfect date night. For dessert share the cherry pistachio peanut brittle soft serve. We were traveling so who knows if we'll make it back but we had a special night here while in Atlanta!

    This was my first time coming to Little Sparrow for brunch and it did not disappoint! I love their dinner menu and was looking forward to trying some of their brunch options. Make sure to try the french onion soup - its the best! Service is always great and it was nice seeing the space lit up with sunlight during the day time. Its nornally very dark and moody during dinner time, so this was a nice change. The prices for the brunch menu are also very reasonable. Always love coming here for a tasty meal!

    Baguette and butter
    Amanda S.

    Love bar blanc so of course had to try little sparrow! It gets super busy so make sure you have a reservation before you go. Parking is paid in the lot behind the restaurant and maybe they validate it but we were there all afternoon so we just paid for 5 hours for about $15. We started with their complimentary bread and butter (so AMAZING) and then shared some frites. I had the chicken schnitzel and Alex had a beef cheek ravioli. I loved everything that we had and would absolutely get it again! We ended the night with some honey and evoo ice cream and took home a takeout loaf! Service was also exceptional and we always had food on the table and waters/drinks filled!

    Genepy Highball Cocktail
    Julia C.

    Yes, worth the hype and wait to get in (reservation typically required for a prime night of the week!!) This was one of the coziest ambiance's I've been in in a while. The place was absolutely buzzing, so service was actually a bit slow, but our server Sean was still incredible. Among the MANY highlights to include in this culinary recap was the BREAD SERVICE with a slab of ice cream-scooped-style butter on oil to dip. YUM Nothing not to love, except the classically quaint portions of a high-end restaurant. Delicious from top to bottom!

    Frites with raclette
    Lauren R.

    Valet and self parking is available. This parking lot gets pretty busy because there are so many businesses in the area. We made reservations via open table. The host called the day before and checked in which was nice. I did indicate that we were celebrating a birthday and having our valentines celebration. We were sat promptly. As far as service, he was informative, provided recommendations. He got us a round of drinks for a celebratory birthday toast that was comped. The server that brought the drinks spilled 3 drinks on one of my friends but was very apologetic. This is where service got a little slow and again while we waited for our checks. For food starters we tried the raclette frites, hamachi, French onion soup and the Aleppo shrimp. There is also bread service. My friend who ordered the Aleppo wasn't thrilled but i really liked it. It had a good lemon zest and the pepper gave it a kick. The frites were really good- thick cut with a crispy exterior and soft fluffy interior. For entrees we had mezzaluna pasta, the burger and frites, bolognese and the scallops. I tasted the burger. It was good but not my favorite. - it wasn't crisp enough for me. I prefer a smashed burger. The Mezzaluna had braised beef. I thought it was really good. My sister had the scallops and they were good, cooked to perfection but still not sure it's worth the price since no sides and it's only 4.

    Pancakes
    Carlie M.

    Came here to try the new brunch and it was so good! We got the pancakes and a side of bacon. The pancakes were delicious and big enough to split. Keep in mind that they are super fluffy, so not your typical pancake. More cakey than usual, but I liked that. Great service per usual as well

    Croque Monsieur
    Katie E.

    We went for brunch for the first time, and really enjoyed our meal. We got the French onion soup, deviled eggs, pancakes, and croque monsieur. Everything was delicious, but my favorite was the soup and pancakes. The restaurant is beautiful with elegant decor and rich colors. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable without being pushy.

    OLD COCONUT CAKE.  Disgusting.
    Judy M.

    We were in for dinner tonight. The fries with my meal were cold, greasy, and black. My husband's coffee was ice cold, and the coconut cake I purchased to go tastes and looks like it is OLD. Underwhelmed and disappointed. Food was MEH. Save your money and dine elsewhere. PLENTY of better places to dine. Little Sparrow - DO BETTER.

    Takes reservations

    Visited Blackjack Bar in Atlanta for the first time. It was suggested as a perfect date night or…read more"girls night" spot on TikTok, which was great because I was in town celebrating my birthday with my best-friend. When you walk in the mood is instantly set with by the low ambient lighting and decor. Being that the theme & cuisine is Asian fusion, they really put a lot of effort into transporting to visually to an Asian oasis. We were seated at a table in the main dining area, but there's also a full bar with ample seating and very nice view. The seats were very comfortable and the tables are spaced in a way for intimacy. They also have music playing the background & the playlist was diverse with music ranging from K-Pop to R&B. Now on to our meal! The menu is pretty straight forward and broken down into apps/small plates, mains/big dishes, and a separate menu for cocktails. To start off we got drinks: lychee martini 10/10 & "cucumber salad" 8/10. Both were very good. The ingredients used make the drinks very intriguing and definitely something you've probably never tasted. It's suggested to keep an open mind when trying their cocktails. For food we had the shrimp wontons 10/10 (sauce was so good ... a little spice to it), the salt and pepper shrimp 8/10 (a little salty but fried well), the Thai basil fried rice 10/10 (the fried egg on top and the pickled cabbage was a great touch), and last the lobster pot 10/10 (presentation alone would make me go back to visit ... this dish was so good and flavor full). Overall my experience was great and I would definitely make it a priority to visit when I come back.

    I came here on Aug 6 for My Birthday. But before that I called on Aug 3 to inquire about…read morereservations and the GM Dante was so nice and accommodating. He assured me that my request for an non-tradtional dinner reservation could be fulfilled. He also informed me that they offered 2 hour parking validation in the 1010 parking deck. So I made reservations for the 6th from 630p-1100p. That particular day they also had a love band. So Dante reserved the high top bar tables for me which was 4 that sat upto 8 ppl. It was perfect b/c when I got there I had 1 friend waiting and then as we ordered food and drinks more ppl came through, and then some left and that was throughout the night. It was perfect. No waiting on opl not splitting bills just come enjoy buy what you want and leave when you want. The set up was EXACTLY what I wanted. SERVICE: Starting with the phone call to make the reservation Dante the GM was really nice an accommodating as I mentioned. I just hate I didnt get to meet him, b/c that day was his one day off. But nevertheless he had everything don't just the way i asked and I was grateful for his attentative nature. We had Yaz as our server and she was amazing to say the least! She was attentative and made sure everyone that came in was properly taking care of. She was personable and quite friendly which isn't that common these days. With everyone wanting a tip for bare minimal service it was refreshing to see someone who seemed to like her job and did it with ease and was on top of her game, so there for she deserved th3 tips she made from us that night. I didn't pay for anything (hence it being my bday), and I still tipped her. That's how good she was. And when I go back I will definitely ask for her section. The hist that checked us in, I believe his name was Mike. He was also very nice. There was a table next to pur high top tables and I asked if my mom could sit there and he said sure as long as they didn't need it, b/c my mom couldn't get up on the barstools that good. And so her and another friend's mom sat there. So worked out perfect AMBIANCE: The restaurant itself was really nice. I enjoyed every part. It was loud and the band was nice. At first on the appearance of the band I didn't know what to expect, but all in all they played a variety of really nice music and it wasn't over powering like they thought they were at a concert like most bands in restaurants. FOOD/DRINKS All I can day here was it was all soo very good. All of my friends were impressed and every person stated how they would have to come back b/c it was so nice. The drinks the food everything. I dont think Iate one thing I didn't like. Only thing I had that I mentioned to the server Yaz was that the octopus tail was a bit chewy amd that's it. The drinks were AMAZING. For me it is all about presentation and the had great presentation and tasted as good as they looked. One drink called the Good Time Girl was soo good and it came out with all these bubbles. It was amazing. They had a appetizer special 3 for $39 and me and a friend order 2 and so we tried 6 different things and it all was good. We had the calamari, grilled octopus tail, chicken wings, lettuce wraps, mussels, and oysters. It was ALL SOO YUMMY! We had a great time and it was perfect for how I wanted to celebrate. I would definitely come again hands down. The only downfall was that night the parking for 2 hours wasn't working properly so I parked on the street, but that wasn't the fault of the restaurant that was something with the garage I suppose.‍ So I definitely recommend this place. It's good for date night, hangout, drinks or a light bite. You won't be disappointed.

I'm not a beer drinker, but it looked like they have a variety of beverages in addition to a couple of meal choices. We entered, and everyone was so friendly. After placing our orders, we received a text that let us know to go nearby to the food truck to pick them up. The double burgers were tasty and the fries delicious. Our slushie drinks were exceptional. We enjoyed our meal before walking over to the game. As the ballgame ended, there was a notification that there was a severe thunderstorm and we should shelter in place by staying in the stadium. Since we had a bit of a drive home, we decided to get ahead of the weather and traffic and leave early. Well, we had only walked one block when the bottom fell out. We were drenched. We decided to run back into Wild Leap before we got our car next door. As we got to the front door, a young man (Manager? Shift manager?) whom we had seen working there earlier opened the door and welcomed us in. He immediately grabbed hand towels that were clean and dry for us to wipe off with and offered any assistance he could give us. We went to the restroom and tried to clean up a little, then came back out, handed over the towels and walked outside. It was still pouring out. The same man then insisted on running to his car to get his personal umbrella for us. He returned with the umbrella. My daughter used it as she got our car, then returned it to him. We were so impressed with Wild Leap for many reasons: the food was delicious, the drinks were excellent, and the service was superb.

Parking can be a little confusing at first, but there's a huge parking lot basically right behind (or in front) of the place.

They don't serve food, but they do occasionally have food trucks on site. Wild Leap has two levels, but the lower level is where the party is. The TVs are all down there, and they have some nice outdoor seating. The staff is all super friendly too. Happy to help! While Wild Leap is quite nice, it's super far from my home in Chamblee. I probably won't come back anytime soon, unless someone is having an event here.
