| - Little Spoon was on my brunch to-try list for awhile, and my girlfriend and I were finally able to give it a shot today. The food was above average but not amazing, and the service was solid.
As others have mentioned, I really like the 90's hip hop music and the laid back vibe of the restaurant, even down to the menu! The waitstaff all seemed very chill but not too laid back to be inattentive, and our food came out pretty quickly after we ordered. I ordered the shashuka, which consists of two eggs in a spicy marinara sauce with toasted bread. It was pretty tasty, but I would have liked a lot more bread. I got three small triangles, and the tomato sauce and runny eggs seemed too much like a soup without anything to dip. My girlfriend got the chicken biscuit, which actually comes as two sliders. The biscuits were fluffy and tender, and the chicken pieces were tasty, although a bit small. The pickled cucumbers and dip/spread on the side (some type of aioli possibly) both added great flavor too. We tried the 8 minute cookies as a dessert...avoid these! They weren't horrible, but they weren't even as good as store-bought cookie dough and were only 4 very small cookies for $6. Overall, the food was solid, albeit a bit lacking for the price, but I'd be willing to come back here.
