Nestled in a charming 1911 Craftsman bungalow, Little Beast serves seasonal American comfort food amid twinkling lights and cozy nooks for an idyllic dining experience.
"In a charming 1911 craftsman bungalow on the far end of Colorado is local favorite, Little Beast. It’s as much refined as it is laid back, making for an ideal gathering spot for dinner and drinks with friends. American gourmet comfort food is served in the main house, on the relaxed front porch, at the coziest little bar or, the best in our opinion, under the back patio’s twinkle lights. After his position as Chateau Marmont’s sous chef, Chef Sean Lowenthal was intent to create an honest, neighborhood restaurant with a seasonal menu; a place where you could feel comfortable bringing your kids or a date, and that didn’t entail making a trek west. Happy Hour: Small plates half off. Wine $5. Beer $4." - Hype Type Studio & Steph Ashmore
"If you're planning a weeknight date in Eagle Rock, head to Little Beast. The American-ish menu is consistent: you’ll eat dishes like spicy chipotle hummus, salmon belly mousse, and sweet corn risotto. But it’s the atmosphere that’ll keep you coming back. Little Beast is located on the grounds of a large converted bungalow on Colorado Blvd., complete with a wrap-around front porch, a dining room with various nooks and crannies, and a string-lit back patio that feels like a neighbor’s backyard. It’s romantic but not too serious, and therefore the ideal setting to tell the person across from you that they have a fennel frond stuck in their teeth (or that you're really feeling this thing you have going).

"Little Beast in Eagle Rock might not have a designated parking lot of its own, but that’s no reason to sweat. Thanks to a quiet location at the end of Eagle Rock’s main drag on Colorado Blvd., there is copious amounts of street parking in every direction—even on Friday and Saturday nights when every couple in the area descends upon its twinkling patio for date night." - sylvio martins, brant cox, nikko duren, garrett snyder
"There’s something intrinsically romantic about eating dinner inside a craftsman bungalow, which is why you’ll often find us at Little Beast on date night. This charming American spot is one of the most popular restaurants in Eagle Rock, with a menu of solid dishes like salmon belly mousse and sweet corn risotto, and a warm atmosphere where sparks can’t help but fly. There’s a wrap-around front porch for watching the sunset over the hills, an interior filled with nooks and crannies, and a string-lit back patio that feels like you’re hanging out in a neighbor’s backyard. It’s moody but festive, and ideal for letting your date know that you’re into this." - brant cox

The new Monday menu is below." - Farley Elliott
