What an adorable place - small cozy vibes with incredible food. Small menu makes for exquisite food. We got oysters, whipped ricotta, spicy sausage pasta and papardelle. Everything was amazing. We will be back!

We had an excellent meal here. Delicious food and drinks, and knowledgeable servers who were able to tell us what could or could not be made safely gluten free (and there were plenty of options). On occasion service was a little slow but it was a busy Friday night.Dietary restrictions: Good for celiac

It's always a really great place to go with family, the servers were really nice and the overall service was good tooDietary restrictions: It was clear what was used in the dishes, like if there was meat, when asked.

The food is consistently top notch, but the dining experience is not. Others describe front of house management as engaging in "selective hospitality," and I experienced this first-hand this evening. We made reservations with the understanding (via email confirmation) that there would be a special prix fixe menu for the NYE holiday, only to arrive and not have that be the case. This was only conveyed to us after we expressed surprise to the server when presented with the regular menu. They did end up offering the prix fixe option to the table, but only after we asked. This wasn't a cost issue but frustration over lack of communication. Toward the end of the meal, when we noticed that despite many at our table ordering the same dish (steak au poivre) as the adjacent table, we asked the manager why ours was prepared with a different cut of meat (tenderloin) while the other table had steak/filet. Again, the food was delicious, but the explanation was completely nonsensical. For all the pretension, I would expect FOH management to know that tenderloin and filet are different cuts of beef.

Absolutely delightful. This restaurant is worthy of Michelin star. My favourite restaurant in the whole surrounding area, with a wonderful ambience. They cater to plant based diets too!

Disappointing and overpriced with undisclosed 20% fair wage service charge on top. Service was terrible. Non existent might be a better description. For a small town restaurant the servers had zero personality and seemed put out to have patrons at their tables. Drove 35 minutes for this meal after multiple foodie friends recommended it. Maybe it's different in the summer or the chef doesn't work Saturday nights? Brussel sprouts were the only positive, nice flavor profile if not a touch salty but it's restaurant fare so presented as expected. Mains were overly salty. Pot de Creme dessert had overpowering caramel and seemed to have forgotten the chocolate. Despite ordering from the signature cocktail menu, the ratios were all wrong in the drinks (Negronis, Aperol spritz, and an espresso martini that was nothing more than bitter cold coffee) and took forever to come to the table (well after the course was served despite ordering with the food). The cherry on top was the 20% fair wage charge on the entire bill (not mentioned on menu or we would have sent food back) guaranteeing the server made their money for doing nothing. $100/head for salty food, bad drinks and horrible service. Look elsewhere!!

Tough decisions- should I have my usual favorite - burger & fries? But the pasta is always so delicious? Or should I have the fresh fish? Or what other creative dish is also on the menu tonight? This time I changed things up - a fantastic salad, with greens, apples, fennel and I must check the ingredients because it was surely the best salad ever. I had the ricotta with focaccia appetizer as my main. The ricotta dish is one of my favorites but that with a salad and then a main is just too much food unless you perhaps share. I must save room for dessert - the always perfect pot du crème or perhaps a warm cookie and ice cream. I can't begin to explain the squash dish - we were excited to try it as it is new to the menu, we shared it among 4 of us and we can't stop talking about the amazing flavors - how can it be soooo delicious? I see other reviewers have commented about the small menu - yes it's small because it's food fresh from the area. Very attentive service, small, cozy atmosphere. Cocktails are especially creative and equal thought has gone into mocktails. Other reviewers question the fare wage fees so I did some research - too much information to write here so please do some research yourself but I like the idea and apparently more and more restaurants are following this lead and yes you can tip more if you like. I suggest going to Little Moss for every occasion you can think of, even if it's just celebrating the middle of the week.

Nice atmosphere, good-healthy expensive food. 20% “house” mark up, plus a 5% “meal tax”, plus a tip! Really??? Pretentious.

There is nothing like it anywhere. Absolutely amazing restaurant. I have never had such amazing fresh pasta and fresh greens. Shannon the Manager is fantastic!
Yes. The food is thoughtful and goddamned delicious. The drinks are a delight. The staff knows what they're doing. It's cozy, it's upscale, it ain't pretentious. It's just good as hell.

First time at Little Moss and we loved it. We sat at the bar with Nikki and had a marvelous night. We had cocktails, appetizers and each had a fresh pasta dinner. Oh and and their amuse-bouche unexpected and was divine. We finished our night with an Aquavit. Fantastic. It's a mystery to me how anyone would have an issue with their fair wage addition of 20%. The staff is attentive and kind. We can't wait to go back!
