The food is inventive and excellent. Every bite was worth savoring. Problem is there was not enough! Most “courses” are just a bite of food. I left the restaurant so hungry that I walked right over to Chicko’s and got an Orange-ish Chicken.

Little Pearl was fantastic. Cozy, welcoming spot with a relaxed, neighborhood vibe. The food was fresh, creative, and full of flavor — every dish felt carefully crafted. Service was friendly and attentive without being over the top. Perfect for a special yet low-key night out.

My husband took me here for my birthday and dinner was full of delight & surprise. Shout out to Keenya - she has the best energy & made this such a standout experience! It was a blast - a word I don’t usually associate with fine dining.
