Little Sparrow draws recommendations for French food, including praise for its cheeseburger and raclette frites. Diners also describe a distinctive, attractive setting and suggest it as a special evening out. Not everyone is persuaded: some find it expensive, and a diner familiar with the restaurant group's other venues was underwhelmed.
