Little Owl

Tucked at the corner of Bedford and Grove Streets in the West Village, this small eatery is the perfect place for a romantic date night rendezvous. Serving up winning Mediterranean fare, The Little Owl utilizes seasonal ingredients to enhance its menu, which features fresh fish, hearty meats and other flavorful concoctions, like the mouth-watering ricotta cavatelli. Diners enjoy watching the activity street-side via floor to ceiling windows, while stealing peeks into the open kitchen. If you're visiting with 4 people, opt to sit at the chef's favorite table (hint: it's also the bar), and keep in mind that if you're planning to dine here with a party larger than 2, reservations are required.
