Restaurant was dead. 30 mins to see a waitress, 1 1/2 hrs to get food, “striped bass” taste like it was sitting on the dock in China for three weeks, they cooked my wife’s steak wrong TWICE, waitress was wrong about vegetable of the day…..bread was good! Horrible experience. We will NOT go back!

This was a very disappointing experience. I made this reservation at least six weeks in advance of our graduation celebration
We were seated in the bar at a high top table.. My husband spoke with the maitre d
He was told that nothing could be done and we could not be moved There’s no excuse for this. There was a table available inside the dining room where our waitress could have served us not be moved. No other people were seated in the bar area. Our waitress was excellent, but the maitre d was unresponsive to our request We should not have been I’m a white tablecloth restaurant and been seated I’m the bar.
Our reservation was made far in advance. There is no excuse why this happened.

We have been to The Little Village several times and we were truly disappointed at our recent visit. When we approached the hostess stand, we were the only ones there and yet it took the hostess a solid 2 minutes to acknowledge us (she definitely saw us). The food was underseasoned and not the quality we remembered. We will be finding a new special occasion restaurant

Started with the hostess advising our reserved table would not be available for a few minutes. In the meantime, folks were leaving the rest unhappy with the service. We sat 15 minutes late. Our server was overwhelmed. The food ultimately was good. The server got orders wrong on 3 different occasions. We chalked it up to being very busy on a Tuesday night where the restaurant did not expect the volume. But.our review applies to the service recieved.

Made a reservation for a TABLE for two. We were seated on a bench style seat between other diners. This is the second time that we have been seated in this spot. It is too close to other diners and nearly impossible to carry on a conversation with the person you are dining with.
We asked the hostess for a different table and were promptly told there were no other options. There were empty regular tables available- but were told they were for other customers. Several tables remained empty throughout our entire meal. Our server was “meh,” She was difficult to hear above the crowd and had to be reminded of several things throughout the meal.
The food was ok. Steak was not prepared correctly- ordered medium and it was bloody.
The Little Village was once a favorite spot of ours to dine. Not so much anymore. Better service, better food, better ambiance can be found on other BR restaurants.
*Hostess borderlined on just being plain rude. Did not try to accommodate our request in the least.
