Little Pecan Bistro

buttermilk pancakes w/macerated berries 5/5 the farmhand sando 4.5/5 - would be better if there was meat nachos w/ crispy chicken 3.5/5 - standard nachosTwo words: HIDDEN GEM! This place is AMAZING! I can't believe I didn't try this place sooner. Prices are very reasonable for the amount of food that you get. Cute, casual place to grab brunch or lunch.Would highly recommend the buttermilk pancakes w/macerated berries. These are probably one of the best pancakes that I've ever tried. The service there is somewhat self-serve. You go in and choose a table you want to sit at. Each table has a QR code that you scan to order what you want and pay through once you put in the order. Tableware (utensils, napkins, glasses of water) are self-serve. You can get them all from a section of the restaurant at your leisure. Your food will be served to you once it is ready. When you are done eating you can put your dishes in a designated area where all used dishes are placed.

Been here a few times, keep getting drawn in by the vibes and high ratings, but have yet to have a satisfying meal. This last time I tried the fried chicken sandwich, and while the chicken is generously sized, everything else about it was disappointing. The chicken was overcooked and flavorless, and the breading so hard that it all sloughed off in large chunks. I couldn't make myself finish. The pecan sticky bun was also very dry and almost hard. The layout is also a little awkward to navigate--it's unclear whether you are seated, seat yourself, order at the counter, or at the table. From what I can tell over three visits, everything is an option.

Had a great weekday breakfast here! You can order at the counter or directly using a QR code at your table (they'll bring the food to you), and you pick up your own utensils/to go boxes etc at the front counter. We stuck with savory breakfast foods (avocado toast, farmhand sandwich) which were both great - nicely toasted bread, generous avocado spread, and eggs well cooked. The home fries that came with the farmhand were especially well cooked and well seasoned, which I loved. Didn't try the drinks or sweet dishes but would come back for them. Looking over the menu, the entree prices later in the day seem a little expensive, and I thought it was weird that the farmhand costs 4$ more when ordered for dinner than for breakfast even though it's the same sandwich, but otherwise no complaints!

Had a lovely experience at Little Pecan Bistro, a cozy cafe with a relaxing ambiance, friendly service, and an assortment of brunch / lunch cafe bites.They have a self-serve sit-down model where you order at the counter, get utensils and to-go boxes as needed, and find a table -- and then they bring the food to you. It contributes to the relaxed / casual atmosphere, which I enjoyed.Their selection of food and drink is actually quite extensive, with a combination of fusion dishes (rice bowls, tacos, sandwiches), drinks / smoothies, and desserts. We ordered the Asian Steak & Cheese Sandwich ($15.45), Harvest Chicken Salad Sandwich ($12.45), Crispy Fried Onion Rings ($2.50), and the Summer Sunkissed Smoothie ($6.95). Everything came out quickly and was delicious. The portions were also quite generous, so I left feeling very satiated.

Cute little cafe in the Brighton St Elizabeth hospital area. The street parking is a little tough but directly across the street is a public parking lot. Looks like 1/4 is for the police station and the rest is a public lot. You can either order in person or order at the counter. You can seat your self. I got their fried chicken and it was solid. The pickled jalapeños with the regular pickles gave it a nice tang and kick with a nice crunch from the cabbage slaw. The chicken was fried perfectly, crispy on the outside and juicy white meat inside. It doesn't come with a side so I ordered a side of fries. The fries were good, they weren't the crispiest but they were fresh hand cut potatoes. There was some seasoning but not sure what it was. Wifey got the a la carte breakfast and a single pancake. She enjoyed it, the pancake she said was really fluffy. A table ordered the berry pancake which looked good.Would def come back and check it out again and try something different.

Asian steak and cheese (4/5) - great flavor as the meat is short rib. Aoli was solid...a greasy but overall very delicious Cookie(5/5) simply amazing Berry shake(4/5) different because it has milk in it but very good.Nice and chill ambiance inside. The service was good and straightforward so no complaints there either.I would def come back when I'm in the area!

My partner and I went to Little Pecan Bistro for lunch at 2 on a Saturday. We were greeted at the counter and the same lady helped get a table ready for us to eat at. The space is very clean and relaxing, with so many great smells coming from the kitchen. I ordered a thai iced tea and their fried chicken sandwich, both were delicious! The thai iced tea was not too sweet and was refreshing, the fried chicken had great crunch and flavorful, there was plenty of balance with the slaw and pickles. There were so many things on the menu that sounded delicious so we will definitely be back soon to try more!

All in all, I was a bit let down. The visit started off on a not so great note when no one said hi or really acknowledged us standing there and when I walked a little further in to the front area to ask if we could take the one empty booth, the waitress snapped that she needed to clean the table first. Things got better over the course of our meal but the overall temperature from the waitress was pretty cold. The food itself was okay but nothing stood out. The Asian Chopped salad was long slivers of red and green peppers and crunchy noodles, not the neatest thing to eat, but I liked the addition of roasted peanuts. Other than the dressing (the usual sesame/ginger), not clear what made it "Asian."The stir fry veggies bowl was a sad, goopy mix of basic vegetables tossed in a brown sauce with an enormous portion of white rice. For a $13 dish, the actual portion of veggies was measly (and c'mon, no baby corn or water chestnuts or eggplant?). The fish tacos fared better with a crispy battered shell that held up all right under a mountain of toppings (slaw, pico de gallo, guac, cilantro, and jalapeños). I'm a taco purist and like eating a well-constructed taco that stays relatively intact with every bite - this one fell apart just lifting it up. Biggest disappointment was the harvest chicken salad sandwich. I love a good simple chicken salad sandwich, nothing hits the spot more. The cream in this one was overpoweringly sweet. It tasted like a Japanese take on an American classic, but what didn't do it for me was how overly buttered the bread was and the lukewarm temperature of the chicken salad, probably having been taken out of the fridge and squashed between two slices of toast. Overall, meh - the drinks and desserts looked good but not sure I'd come back.

I was always intrigued by how cute this place was when I passed by, and finally had a chance to visit when my friend was in town.We came around 1pm on a Sunday, and it was about half full. It seems this place is popular for both dine-in and takeout. For dine-in, you can check in at the cash register for a seat. Ordering and paying are all done online via a QR code at your table.I ordered the Buttermilk Pancakes with Macerated Berries + Fresh Whipped Cream, as well as a Brown Sugar Ginger Latte. The food came out quickly, and was extremely filling. The berries were a nice, tangy addition to the sweetness of the pancakes and whipped cream.I would definitely come back for brunch, as well as to try out more of their menu!

Helpful tip: The perfect place to get lunch and then study next door at cafe Nero! Review: my friends from Boston College recommended this place. So you know if the college kids love it then it's definitely a go to place for food. It's a nice small casual food place. I got the grilled chicken sandwich and wow... I was not expecting this to be this good. It looked so good that I forgot to take a photo of the sandwich when it first came out. The chicken wasn't dry which was amazing! I'm definitely coming back again to try the many other great food on the menu.
