    Arancini.

    Boy, this place should have been fantastic and just couldn't get there. My top-tier chum who literally went to the school of hospitality and I stopped by here Tuesday night prior to the Nets game for some light bites and cocktails - I refuse to buy the overpriced crap at Barclays, so this seemed like more than a good compromise. I also had multiple chums from Brooklyn endorsing this spot, so everything seemed to be lining up for an excellent night. Unfortunately, I'm starting to think you just can't go to places like this on a Tuesday, but maybe it was just a bad night. I got here way before my chum due to our work schedules, literally 45 minutes or so. It wasn't 6pm yet and while there were definitely customers in both the bar area and the backyard outdoor section, it was pretty chill. I was able to secure a small table next to the bar right by the open window in the front (probably because the sun was glaring down on it, which wasn't an issue 10 minutes later) and just chilled out for a while, enjoying the excellent warm weather. This was the highlight of the experience, which unfortunately my chum did not get to enjoy. A lot of this was just unfortunate timing, I think. As I was waiting for my chum, people were practically streaming into the bar, probably about 25 or so, which I watched with increasing trepidation. Pretty much all of them wanted a drink, and there was only one bartender. They did not fix that problem until well into my chum's visit, so there was literally just the one guy making a gazillion drinks for about 45 minutes. Just no reason for that at all, especially given that they DID have the resources to divert and had a young woman back there at a certain point. But once I saw how crazy it was getting, I tried to pre-emptively order a second round, which he forgot about and had to ultimately be reminded of. It took literally half an hour to get the second drink. When my chum arrived, she went up to the bar to order her own drink and some of the arancini. She came back 10 minutes later and said she wasn't given the opportunity - THAT is completely insane. If you're so swamped that customers have to wait that long to even order much less get their drinks, you need help. Not clear where the disconnect was, but what started out as a great experience pretty much crash landed. Really disappointing. The crowd did thin out ultimately but the damage had been done. We were able to get the drinks but didn't bother with the additional app because we didn't want to risk missing a big chunk of the Nets game. So by not being even remotely attentive for a significant period of time, they left money on the table. I will say that the bartender himself maintained his professionalism throughout, and just kept making the drinks. Pretty much the opposite of what would have happened on Bar Rescue. This was on management, not the bartender. The drinks WERE good, which also made the service problems a shame. I got the Witch Doctor, which featured bourbon, rosemary, maple and lemon. Really well made, and appropriate for the unseasonably warm evening - it's the kind of bourbon cocktail made for summer. Would absolutely get that again. And the food was very solid. The star of the night was the arancini, which were featured prominently on the apps menu right at the time and promoted as one of their big selling points - deservedly so. These were honestly some of the best rice balls I've had. The cheese in the middle emphasized the flavors and wasn't too dense or overwhelming, the balls were cooked perfectly, and the sauce (the underrated part of rice balls for me) was delicious. Huge recommend. I also got a margarita flatbread to share with my chum, and that was good as well. Everything was going to come up short to the arancini, but it hit the spot. As mentioned, this was a random Tuesday night when maybe they don't have their full crew ready to rock. Maybe it was a fluke crowd surge? I just don't know, but the bottom line was that they weren't prepared for the customers who came in and were already there, and that's a big problem. If you can't deliver the same quality that you do on the weekends and predictably busier times, then you shouldn't be open that early in the week. Hopefully they figure it out because there's a lot to like here.

    Super chill spot to grab a drink or a bite solo or with friends, the bartender was friendly & the vibe was nice. Good music also!

    EXCELLENT!!! Here with friends and in their cute outdoor patio. Bailey was our server and they were attentive, suggested great drink options and made sure we ordered within the HH time without fuss. We ordered a TON of apps to share. Crispy fries (truffle or without), flatbread mushroom were delicious, the fried ravioli were perfect! I didn't have the Brussels sprouts but none were left, that's a good sign. I forgot my $20 off coupon! Definitely don't leave money on the table like I did. I'll be back and hopefully able to remember my coupon. HA!

    This spot was recommended to me by a friend and I'm glad I took it! I had a quick meal before a concert at Barclays. Service was quick, bartenders were friendly and attentive. There's no waitstaff so if you sit at one of the few tables you'll order at the bar. Vibes were cozy, low light and good for a date! I ordered the burger because a double smashburger for 12 dollars? In this economy? It was delicious and filling and the calabrian chili aioli added a lil something extra. Of course had to get the famous arancini! A lot more cheese than a typical arancini but I'm certainly not complaining. I got one of the drink specials, a gin drink with cucumber that was great.

    Flatbread with pepperoni and hot honey

    Just the Name caught. We were in the area and wanted to try something different. I felt like having some cider and a nice sandwich. I wasn't ready for the punch in your face flavor. Every ingredient in our dish was fresh with top quality ingredients and I was very surprised on the flatbread how crunchy and delicious but the sauce was they eclectic look and the amazing bartending service was top-notch. I sat in the two front seats. I heard they have a backyard very cozy. Will check next time.

    Came here on a Sunday afternoon with a group of friends. Service was extremely poor, probably the worst I've ever experienced. Food didn't come out for an hour after we ordered it, and after we ordered our drinks they took over 20 minutes to come as well. When we went to check on the drinks, we saw that they were just sitting at the bar, melting. Food was mediocre as well for how long we had to wait, but really frustrating experience since we came in to have a good time.

    Brussel sprouts and pepperoni flatbread

    We hardly ever get to Brooklyn-and originally had planned to grab a quick slice of pizza and stumbled upon this place. What an excellent choice. This cozy and inviting bar/restaurant had the perfect vibe and the food and cocktails blew us away! The pomegranate rosemary margaritas were on point. The Brussel sprouts were crispy, but not greasy at all and the flatbread was to die for. Perfect crust, fresh pepperoni and basil with a drizzle of hot honey. The bartender was attentive and friendly, so were the other patrons. We had a blast. Having lived in Brooklyn in the 90's we'll always have a soft spot for the area. They're conveniently located around the corner from Roulette music venue and they're open until midnight.

    The cocktails were great. We loved the different drinks. Super cute space and I can't wait to come back in the summer to sit in the back yard.

    Really cute little bar with a backyard area close to the Barclays center. their happy hour deals are great and the cocktails were delicious. we tried all of the happy hour cocktails and got the truffle fries! Not sure if they do it for all concerts but they gave 15% if you showed your tickets for whoever was performing at Barclays that night!

    Solid cocktails, decent food options, and a great backyard patio space. The flatbreads were pretty good but not spectacular, same with the arancini. Loved their Paper Plane cocktail though. Reasonable prices for the area and the service was pretty good.

    Hold up... I did not expect this food to blow my mind. That's exactly what it did. YUM! Such a cute little place with a lot of personality. Staff was great. Will return.

    Everyday Happy Hour!!

    The first words that I can think of to describe The Little Pig are OMG. WOW. Delicious! I completely recommend, my new favorite spot in Brooklyn. Food: absolutely delicious. The Arancini balls are delicious! The brussels sprouts are cooked perfectly, crispy with a zesty aioli on the side. The Italian sandwich, is superb! The pepperoni pizza on flatbread with hit honey...., holy moly, makes me want to put hot honey on everything now lol. And you can't beat the great happy hour prices! Very affordable and you get such great options and it's every day!The house white wine was chilled and oh so good! The service: super nice, attentive, super smiley and welcoming. The ambiance: very lively and vibrant. Absolutely love the music and the atmosphere. I totally recommend this restaurant/bar to anyone in the neighborhood looking for a quick affordable bite that you will be so happy to eat and enjoy. Good place for couples and groups.

The crowd was friendly, welcoming, and in great spirits, which added to the overall vibe. They offer an excellent selection of beers along with a variety of wines. Maddy, the bartender, was fantastic and made the experience even better. She recommended the Hill Farmstead Double Mosaic IPA, and it did not disappoint... an outstanding choice. I also got the chance to meet one of the owners, Taylor, who was friendly & very knowledgeable on the beers. Thank you for a great conversation. Overall, this is a great spot that I can definitely see becoming one of my regular go-to places. Looking forward to many more visits. Thank you Maddie & Taylor See you soon.

They've got a food menu and other drinks besides beer, including nonalcoholic options, but I was especially impressed with their tap selection and cans available in the fridge. Bartenders were awesome, and this place is great for having way more space than you'd expect when you first walk in! There's more seating past the bar in the back. The big differentiator is an outdoor patio area that's perfect for the nice weather. If I lived nearby I'd be out there pretty much all summer.
