    Great beer selection that features Belgian and Belgian Style ales. Ask for a taste if you're not sure. Full bar so you can switch to liquor after you get your fill of beer. Little Bear Burger is tops!

    The Little Bear burger is perfectly juicy, cheesy and seasoned. I usually go for medium but it taste pretty good medium rare.

    Little Bear has an impressive selection of Belgian beers on tap. Pair your drink with the truffle-tastic burger and a side of the slightly sweet balsamic-roasted brussels sprouts. Read more

    They changed up the menu here a bit so it's worth a visit if you haven't been for a while. Theres some new sandwiches and the flat iron steak with mashed potatoes and veggies is spot on.

    Great selection of beers that rotate. Expect Belgian and Belgian style ales. Great liquor selection too. Grab the Brussels sprouts, wings or burger if you feel like a snack.

    Love this bar! So many wonderful beers on tap. Ask your waitstaff for advice. They know their beer! Short Rib grilled cheese was awesome!

    Have a leige waffle. Just get the waffle on its own or go for brunch (with fried eggs / maple / bacon, or as a burger bun).

    New menu is good, but I miss the old one. Always go for the grilled cheese. Skip the ahi burger--it is dense and dry (although the squid ink bun is interesting for the epicurious.

    Unless you're a huge fan of sauerkraut, make sure to ask for a little on the pastrami burger. Otherwise you'll get a sauerkraut overload.

    Very good Belgian and Belgian-style beers on tap to go with good food. Good place to watch sports.

    Food is surprisingly solid. Black gnocchi and "the catch" are stand-outs. The complimentary bread and butter are really good also.

    The perimeter at Little Bear is obviously Belgian beers, the ultimate concept here is for us to find a great synergy between beer and food. Order the "Grilled Cheese Brisket." Read more

    Remember the fries are made in duck fat - that makes them so good. I t also allowed me to steal them off the plate of my vegetarian friend.

    Accompany your beer with a Flanders-style stew. The carbonnade touts tender chunks of ale-braised brisket, mashed turnips and sautéed spinach: Read more

    The pro scramble is the jam. It may sound boring and too healthy but it's delicious (egg whites, kale, peppers, garlic, chicken)

    Sadly the mushroom savory cakes are no longer on the menu. I would pass on the crispy brussel sprouts. The ones at Sixth Street Tavern are far superior.

    Fries cooked in beef fat?!? We've eaten these before. Why aren't they labeled as such on the menu for vegetarians? Really disappointed.
