Little Big’s is now open in Hermann Park on Zoo Circle Drive. This is the second location of the joint venture between Reef chef Bryan Caswell and Bill Floyd.

Little Big’s serves a variety of sliders along with crispy fries, milkshakes, beer and a descent wine list. We love to chow down on the twice-fried fries with roumalade sauce and we still order The Dude (White-Russian milkshake) in chilly weather. more ›
