Little Owl 90 Bedford Street, Manhattan, New York 10014

"Ordered the Ziti Amatriciana, Italian Wedding Soup, Sesame String Beans, and NY Strip. TBH, don’t really know how this has this many positive reviews, or how it’s shown as ‘Mediterranean’ as its definitely just American food. The Ziti was okay. The sauce was like… fine. Definitely better places to get Italian pastas in the neighborhood. The Soup came out cold at first, but once we got it hot it was better than average. The vegetables were good & crunchy. The String Beans were sadly my favorite part, cooked good with a good sauce. Can’t really go wrong there. The steak was burnt at the ends, and didn’t even come with the salsa verde as advertised. I wouldn’t come here again, maybe it’s better for brunch or something? Dinner… yawn. Pass."

"Loved dining here! The food was amazing and our servers were excellent. We dined in the outdoor area, but there are warm heaters and it was very cozy. I recommend making reservations, as they stay very busy. If you’re a Friends fan, the restaurant is at the bottom of the Friends apartment building and was also used for the outside shots of Central Perk."

"This was really a sweet spot. Sat outside, they turned the heat lamp on for us. The staff was all very friendly. The drinks were decent and the food was good. My only complaint would be that the chicken entree came with potatoes and no vegetables. It was literally just chicken and mashed potatoes. It was delicious, especially the sauce on it, but just would have rather had one less piece of chicken in order to have some veggies like asparagus perhaps. Other than that lovely spot. Was always a crowd of people standing by and taking photos since the "Friends" apartment building is above it. Would recommend and come again. The staff gave out flowers for the women eating because of an event someone had. Wouldn't expect that to be a regular thing but was still sweet!"
