    We came in & were instantly greeted by Tiffany. She was so kind and the drinks she made were on point!! She made sure to continually check up on us and brought our food out efficiently. Each drink we ordered came in the cutest glasses. Her personality and customer service 10/10!

    There was only one server working on the night I visited but she handled herself well. Thank you for everything Angelica! The drinks were nice and strong and I loved the glass mine was served in. The suya was delicious and had the perfect level of spice in my opinion.

    Love the service. The food and drink came out quick. The day I went wasnt busy. Loved the shrimp kabobs and the joloffe rice well seasoned the right amount of spice. The drinks were esthetically fun. They also taste good. The main cons parking was hard to find to find. If you can eat spicy food, be careful what u order. But I love spicy food. The goat kabob was a lil too well done for me, but great flavor.

    Was a little skeptical as some of the reviews are not pleasant. Almost seems unfair to venue. But I must say, I am so delighted with my experience at this place.The food was absolutely on point. Culturally speaking, some folks may consider some of the dishes a bit spicy, however it is important to understand that west African cuisine may have an acquired taste. If your not use to it, easily can feel like too much. As your taste buds adjust, you can experience the food with the mouthful of pleasure it has to offer. I know this from experience!The service was attentive and polite. Again, the wait times on food may be a result of the preparation which is a good sign of the authenticity and freshness! And then I can’t wait as their menu expands to include more authentic Ghanian dishes.

    This would have been a 5 star experience but the wait time for the food is actually ridiculous. We got there at 5:40PM , our food came at 7:15 ish. We ordered the beef suya, indomie, kelewele and jerk chicken. The jerk chicken was okay but everything else was good.

  • Review 6 (2024-09-03 - Rating: 5)

    Food was amazing I loved the suya wings.

    Omg little street lounges there no words to say how amazing this place is drink fantastic for is too die for the drink is a show so if u want post your drink on your social media this is the place to go

  • Review 8 (2024-06-14 - Rating: 5)

    You can’t go wrong with any of their dishes! We had the beef rice and banku and tilapia for lunch. We ended up having to order extra to go home because it was that good. Desire was a good hostess too!

  • Review 9 (2024-02-28 - Rating: 4)

    The food and the DJ were amazing! But the bartender, Tiffany, a young hispanic lady, made the experience extremely unpleasant. I was aware that this restaurant was having a Black History Month discount. When i brought it up to Tiffany, she lied to my face and completely denied it, refusing to offer me the discount. It wasn’t until the other bartender stepped in and corrected her. Prior to me ordering drinks with my friend, Tiffany continuously gave us nasty looks are we were enjoying ourselves. Her refusing two black women of this discount confirmed it. We even overheard other customers complaining about her. I love this place, but I won’t be returning as long as Tiffany is still an employee.

  • Review 10 (2024-11-09 - Rating: 5)

    The food and everything else was exceptional will definitely bring my guests in the future.

    Not many food option but the food was good. For came out late . Only one chef in the back can’t blame them

  • Review 14 (2024-09-27 - Rating: 5)

    Tiffany is the best. Came in on my birthday after just finding this bar and I got free cake.

  • Review 15 (2024-06-27 - Rating: 4)

    The food was neatly presented and good, the only downside was the rice was a little too hard for me (someone else may like it like that), and it took a while for the food to be served (probably because they spent most of the time in how the food is served 😅)The restaurant looks good; aesthetically pleasing environment, clean sitting areas, good music, and a pretty nice restroom.The service was okay-ish.

  • Review 16 (2024-06-02 - Rating: 5)

    Nice and cozy place with African vibes. Friendly staff, clean restroom, good neighborhood

  • Review 17 (2023-08-12 - Rating: 5)

    This is legit my favorite place. If I didnt live in queens I would be there every weekend 🤣🤣 If you arent already into African specifically Ghanaian food you may say its spicy or its not what ur use too but Im an American that lovesssss this kinda food and this place is A1 the drinks are good Im in love with the variety of cups and the way the creativity is served. Music is top notch no lie the dj already playing the heat but if you request something they have no problem granting ur request its pretty and clean But they are new and still working out the kinks so please be patient with them because this is about to be a gem I guarantee it. 💖💖💖

    Tiffany was a great bartender. She made our time there a good one.. look for her when you go there… drink was good and food even better !! Thank you Tiffany!! You’re the best!

  • Review 19 (2024-01-22 - Rating: 5)

    This is a really new restaurant with minimal staff so there are some long wait times but I promise the food is worth it. I loved the food and the music. This is my 2nd time here and although I had to wait a while my first time, the 2nd time was a huge improvement. Give it a chance yall

  • Review 20 (2024-10-20 - Rating: 5)

    Tiffany is a great bartender! The vibe is awesome!

  • Review 21 (2023-08-14 - Rating: 4)

    If it’s for customer service this new restaurant would get a 10/10 but the food is not good at all. Very dry. The drinks are very good though & so is the atmosphere once you walk in, you’ll forget you’re in a sketchy neighborhood.

  • Review 22 (2023-07-29 - Rating: 4)

    The drinks are tasty and pretty, the food is delicious and the music is good. Its a nice and cozy spot to go on a date or go out with friends for dinner and drinks. Oh and they have hookah!

  • Review 30 (2024-06-19 - Rating: 5)

    I recently had the pleasure of ordering takeout from Little Street Lounge near Harlem, and my experience this time around was outstanding! A few months ago, I dined in and found the service to be lacking, but this visit was a complete turnaround. The service was prompt and efficient, and the staff was much more attentive and friendly.The food was truly filling and every bit excelled in taste. Each dish was perfectly prepared, bursting with flavors that left a lasting impression. The quality of the food was evident in every bite, making it well worth the price. While the prices are a bit on the higher end, I believe that paying for good food is far better than wasting money on cheap, subpar meals.I was very impressed with this visit to Little Street Lounge and will definitely be coming back next time Im in New York. The improved service and delicious, high-quality food have made me a fan. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy a great meal near Harlem!

    Couldn’t have dreamt of a better date night. I thought I would show up at a typical NYC lounge but was pleasantly surprised by the ambiance and service. I was taken aback by the cocktail presentations and the attention to detail by the bartender, Tiffany. She was such a gem! Truly a delight to have a as our server/bartender. I’d recommend this establishment to any couple looking for a laid back, cozy and comfortable night in Hamilton Heights.

  • Review 35 (2024-03-02 - Rating: 5)

    Our experience at Little Street Lounge was nothing but amazing. 10/10 experience. Tiffany went above and beyond to ensure that our date night was fun and eventful. Not only did she treat us with great care, but she was also incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, helping us navigate through the delicious options available. The food was superb, and the drinks were strong and thoughtfully crafted. The fun vibe and dj added to the overall experience of the place. We cant wait to return! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience.

  • Review 38 (2024-03-04 - Rating: 5)

    Me and my sister were dying to try out Little Street Lounge as I have heard amazing things from friends about their drinks and appetizers, we came out of this chick restaurant more than satisfied, the food was delicious and amazingly seasoned and the drinks were the perfect ratio, Tiffany took care of us and I will say on top of their great food and drinks Tiffany made us feel so welcomed she was attentive super nice and all her recommendations on the menu were perfect she knows exactly what she’s talking about, I would absolutely keep coming here for a girls dinner or even a date night !

  • Review 39 (2024-03-13 - Rating: 4)

    The food, drinks, and vibes here are chef’s kiss! I would’ve given this 5/5 stars but I have to take a star away for horrible treatment me and my friend received from one of the staff. I believe her name is Tiffany. She was just rude off the bat, would rush us in our ordering process, and just maintained an unprofessional tone during our entire time there. It’s like she was trying to get us to leave which makes no sense. I actually almost walked out if not for the good food. I’d love to come back with more friends cause I think this could be our go to spot in Harlem, but if Tiffany is our waitress again, I will walk out.

    I visited on a Friday to celebrate a wedding engagement. The beef suya, beer, and hookah (separate) were on point. Their DJ kept the energy up. I had an overall fantastic experience. Our waitress were very hospitable.

  • Review 42 (2024-03-14 - Rating: 4)

    The food and the drinks were gooood, and the DJ was going crazy 🔥 only bad part was our waitress (the Hispanic one). She clearly had an attitude that day but we let it slide and still enjoyed our time

    I love this place. The GHANIAN dishes are delicious and authentic!

  • Review 45 (2023-08-13 - Rating: 4)

    Loved the atmosphere and the drinks..I went there on a Saturday, the DJ was really good. The food was ok. Everything was very spicy. I wish they had different levels of spicy but they don’t. That took away from my experience. I don’t mind returning for drinks but not sure I would try the food again.

  • Review 46 (2023-12-16 - Rating: 4)

    If you like spicy food this is the place for you ! And the music was great
