    Fantastic spot nestled in the Lakeview neighborhood. We had brunch and it was delicious. Service was outstanding too. We will definitely go back!

    Service missed the mark today. Ordered vegan pancakes as an app after mentioning the party had vegans. Specifically asked for them as an app when we sat down ... the non-vegan pancakes were delivered & grabbed quickly by runner who said they were wrong. Waitress & runner came back & said food would be out first as they remade pancakes with vegan batter. Felt the restaurant didn't handle the situation well. Missed opportunity to bring us another app pre food. Missed opportunity to hold the mains as the pancakes we wanted as an app came out. Missed opportunity to comp the pancakes after our mains as an oops we messed up.

    Everything we ate was perfect. Our waiter was so nice. This Little Piggie is the best breakfast, if you don't mind a touch of heat. The pancake portions are huge and delicious.

    Went for brunch. Loved "This little Piggy" and shrimp & grits. Everything was well prepared & delicious and the service was friendly and efficient. We did have to wait a little for our table, but the place is small.

    Dined here with a friend on a Tuesday night. They must have been training new staff because it looked like a lot of people were working but it took a long time for a server to come to our table even though the restaurant was pretty empty. When our server acknowledged us he had a shadow/trainee with him. You gotta train staff sometimes, right? Aside from that, our food was absolutely delicious. I had the peanut & tofu curry, my friend had the shrimp salad & we shared a side of perfectly cooked fries. Portions were large but we both finished our meals because it was so good! We will definitely return to this neighborhood gem. The place is small so it’s great that they take reservations.

    First time visit. States a Southport address but actual entrance is on the side street. Quickly seated and greeted. Server pointed out some of her favorites.

    Food was good but immediately upon sitting down to our reserved table we were told that there was another reservation in an hour. We were rushed the entire time despite no warning anywhere that there would be a time limit. They even cleared plates as others at the table were still eating. Disappointing service.

    Very little options. Food wasn’t that good. I was very disappointed. The only good thing was the fries. Service was very poor. I’m definitely not going back.

    Everyone there is always amazing and so kind! Preston was a great server and I feel like he’s my new best friend! I got my usual but my boyfriend said his burger was amazing which I knew he would say!!! I was so happy when they had peanut butter cookies, Faith is a master at pastries! But those pb cookjes are my personal fave! Always my favorite multiple time a week spot. My wallet hates me but my tummy and soul loves me for it.

    Hey Rachel, thanks for the amazing review! PB cookies are available every day for a REASON! They're a need, not just a want. See you soon! - Carly Wilson, General Manager

    Fantastic service from friendly but not obtrusive staff. The food was uniformly well done with outstanding flavors. Ordered patty melt, chili crisp burger, pork belly omelette, tofu, and okonomiyaki along with assorted sides. Although it’s a diverse palette of flavors, each dish had a personality and the fusion was done. Only downside is the space is small and very loud. Weather permitting, it is probably better to sit outside.
