Little Donkey absolutely exceeded expectations. Our server was super sweet and all the staff worked together well with pre-busing/refreshing plates. The Korean cauliflower and Parker rolls were phenomenal, and the cacio e pepe was hands down my favorite dish of the night.. actual perfection. The cocktail served in the grapefruit was such a cool touch and incredibly refreshing. They also gave us a cute customized menu for our anniversary, which was such a thoughtful detail and made the night feel extra special. Definitely a hidden gem with amazing food, drinks, and atmosphere. The only thing that could make the experience even better would be offering a small complimentary dessert or celebratory toast for anniversaries. We’ll absolutely be back!!!
Sophisticated without pretension, chef-driven without ego, warm hospitality with delightful touches from Micaela. Certainly the gold standard of Central Square dining.

Vsry dark place with a great happy hour menu. Had the burger and chicken sandwich. Both were very good and cooked just right. The drinks are super good. The grapefruit drink is good but small and pricey. Staff was great and the place is very open with lots of room.

We are back again at Little Donkey, this time as a party of three. First thing I want to do is give a shout out to our server, Whitney, and Joe, who is the floor manager. They took such great care of us. The service was amazing!
The food, once again, was outstanding! Fresh oysters, brussel sprouts, bao buns, desserts, all of them were amazing! You can tell this is a kitchen that clicks at all times and really cares about the food that they prepare.
Go to Little Donkey. You will not regret it!

The price of the food is way too much for how much food you get. $16 for a chicken sandwich or $18 for a burger barely bigger than a slider is kinda wild, especially when neither even come with a side. Great vibes and cocktails but I wouldn't waste your money getting the food.
