    These drinks are STRONG. And delicious but be warned they will knock you over. The Kiwi Basil cocktail was def the winner. Even if you don't like cucumber drinks (I don't) they nailed this one, it combines cucumber, lemon, gin, kiwi, elderflower and basil. Sounds crazy but it's crazy amazing. The Bold Fashioned was also good, a nice take. But the Kiwi Basil won.

    Burger: 5 stars!  Water: 5 stars!  Haha dill pickle spear: 5 stars.  Yummy.

    I've been here before and remember the filthy tots are 5 star and the drinks were very good. If I can find the photos I will upload them from my last visit near a year ago. Last night I decided to grab a quick bite on my way home. I grabbed a seat at a table as the bar was completely filled with patrons. Little bar has a nice outside (covid-era) patio and the inside is dark, lively and plays great music - great vibes. Staff is friendly, attentive and quick to refill water and bring the check once asked. I had a cheeseburger and a water. Cheeseburger: 5 stars. Solid 5 stars. At around 14 bucks the price is steep, but the burger was *perfect*. It comes with a dill pickle spear. Lovely brioche bun with slight smattering of flatgrill grease. I opted for the raw onion as opposed to the grilled onion. Burger patty is perfectly cooked, crisp romaine lettuce and delicious melted american cheese (wonderful guilty pleasure) to round out the perfect burger. small, but delicious. I would order this again. Water is ice cold, delicious. If it wasn't so late after work I would have ordered a cocktail or two and stayed longer. I look forward to coming back.

    Sorry for blurriness

    Its name is accurate, a tiny bar! Not true, it's small but if you get there like we did around dinner time, it was completely filled, so we sat outside and had drinks. Hubby had beer, and I tried the Hibiscus Margarita- it was on point! Although the temperature dropped slightly, it was still a bit warm so in order to keep ourselves hydrated we kept drinking water with our drinks and to cool us down along with the outdoor misting system. I imagine it's nicer as the evening progresses. Food smelled and looked good, we'll have to give it a try next time.

    Captures the vibe!

    Absolute best atmosphere in the valley. We spend 1 month a year in the area and visit Little Bar at least a half dozen times. Cocktails are outstanding (blueberry lemon drop) and the bartenders are the best. Quick to serve and always happy to take a photo! Always fun when Harpo stops in for a bite.

    I'm a wheelchair user. How is the parking and access ? I would like to come there and try it out.…

    There's an ADA parking spot and a wheelchair ramp right almost in front of our restaurant. Our restaurant is ADA compatible. We have a low bar area if you would like to sit there or we have individual tables that you can sit at as well

    Will it be difficult to get a seat on Sat at 5? We are older and can't stand for long!

    It should be ok. With the weather cooling down, we have a lot more room and can seat outside. How many people?

    When will you resume lunch schedule?

    Hopefully mid-September.

    Do you have to be 21 to dine in?

    Not sure but I think any age can dine like in any restaurant with a bar! Enjoy

    What time is happy hour and what does it cover? Does it include all drinks or just one or two?

    Happy hour is all say until 5pm. $4 domestic beers, $5 house wine and discounted cocktails.

    Does Little Bar serve zero alcohol spirits (e.g. Lyre's, Seedlip, Beckett's 27, Ritual Zero, Ghia, etc.)?

    Not that I can recall from their menu when I visited. I would suggest calling them.

    During what hours is breakfast served?

    Saturday and Sunday 7 a.m. - noon

    Can I get one of those awesome burgers for Sat/Sun breakfast too? We are taking our Uncle Randy for breakfast because the Breakfast menu says, "Breakfast With Randy!" 😂

    Yes

    Do you have happy hour?

    It's Happy Hour all day at Little Bar. Our beer and food prices are always reasonably priced.

It clearly caters to a sophisticated crowd--very similar in vibe to their Calabasas location. While parking is accessible in the rear, it can get congested during peak season. The menu is extensive with plenty of excellent selections, though the pricing is definitely premium. For instance, a Cobb salad topped with fish can easily exceed $45; while the quality is high, that's a significant jump over nearby staples like Daily Grill. Service was friendly but lacked consistency; our server disappeared mid-meal without a hand-off, requiring us to flag down other staff. Overall, it's a bright, airy, and stylish spot well worth a visit, provided you're prepared for the 'luxury' price point.

FACILITY: Small, limited seating indoors with very nice, fun, outdoor seating areas. Love this place. MENU: Simple, easy to understand, great photos online if you have any questions. FOOD PREP: Very well done, like professional in just how it looks. FOOD QUALITY: Professional in how it also tastes... Watermelon Gazpacho was perfect with drinks prior to main. LIBATIONS: drinks and bartender were excellent, fun, and the photo print was very cool. WAITSTAFF: just so nice, and fun making the experience all that much better.

Don't be an angry rude touron, we don't need that vibe and we see some of that in PS.. You can try for reservations, not sure if they take off season.

When we were seated we were asked for drink orders and when we said we needed a second to decide our server left. this normally wouldn't be an issue except for the fact that she left us for around 30 minutes. when she came back we decided it would be easier to order it all at once. it then took another 30 minutes to get our drinks, and even more time for our food. When appetizers came out all of us were shocked that we did not receive plates. She brought them over later, but by that time we were finished with our appetizer.

Our original seafood plan fell through (fully booked, of course, because that's how these things go), so we pivoted last minute. Expectations were...moderate. What we got? A full-on flavor win. First things first: the coconut shrimp. Order it. Don't discuss it. Just do it. Crispy, sweet, a little tropical magic--gone way too fast. Then came the blackened mahi mahi tacos...wow. The kind of "close your eyes mid-bite" good. And the crab cakes? I actually felt a little emotional taking that last bite. No shame. The real plot twist, though? The kids. Our notoriously picky eaters didn't just tolerate the food--they enjoyed it. Like, voluntarily ate it. Parents, you know how rare that is. The vibe struck that sweet spot too--dimly lit and relaxed, with a breezy island feel that somehow still worked for a family night out. I was half expecting to feel out of place with kids in tow, but it couldn't have been more welcoming. The staff was warm, attentive, and made the whole experience easy. So yeah, what started as a backup plan turned into one of those unexpectedly great nights. Safe to say we'll be back--this time on purpose.

Red wine flight included a fantastic Cab & Cab Reserve, and a "very good" Pinot...and that's coming from a person who does not drink Pinot. I didn't care for the blend but then again I never care for a blend as it is.
