The food: Seafood, small plates
The follow up and little brother to southside seafood destination Michael's. Little Mike's was opened a few doors down to alleviate pressure from the main restaurant, but looks like it's going to become a destination in its own right. The "freshest seafood possible" ethos is continued here with Dublin Bay Prawns, whole fish and whelks on toast staples, and the wine list is full of interesting and unusual bottles at non-gouging prices.
CRITIC REVIEWS

Gillian Nelis, Sunday Business Post

"This plate of fishy perfection came swimming in lemon butter, and accompanied by top-drawer chips. I loved all of it, but I’d have to single out the sole for particular praise; it was one of the best-cooked pieces of fish I’ve ever eaten, and I can still taste it as I write."

"I hadn’t had [whelks] for years but, chopped up and drenched in garlic, ginger and lemon butter, served on a crouton, I’m a convert. Everything at Little Mike’s seems like it’s dripping with delicious butter combos, and everything tastes better with butter!"

"Little Mike's is a delight, with its bright open kitchen and bar, and dark, warm "snug" and food that revels in simplicity and freshness. Plus there's an extensive and very thoughtful wine list which has been compiled over the past three months by Talha Pasha."
