About Little Room
Little Room is a family-favorite asian fusion spot in New Orleans, LA, with a bright feel and open kitchen seating with a view of the line cooks. The kitchen leans into asian fusion done well, milling their own flour in-house each morning.
The signature item to try first is the Tonkotsu Ramen, which has earned a loyal following. The rest of the menu rounds it out with options like Pad Thai, Pho, Korean Bibimbap, plus rotating specials that change with the season. Portions are generous for the price point ($$), and the kitchen is consistent — orders come out fast even when the place is full.
On a typical day you'll find neighborhood regulars who know the staff by name, especially around the lunch and dinner rushes. The bar pours old-school fountain drinks, hand-spun shakes, and bottled root beer. The kitchen happily accommodates common allergies if you let them know. The dining room is clean, the music is at a reasonable volume, and the wifi works.
For ordering, catering trays for offices and parties can be ordered with 24 hours notice. It's the kind of spot you find yourself recommending to friends within an hour of leaving. Whether you're new to New Orleans or a longtime resident hunting for a reliable asian fusion fix, Little Room earns a spot in the regular rotation.

Honestly impressed. We tried three different items between the table and the General Tso's Chicken stole the show. The staff genuinely seemed to enjoy being there which makes a difference. Cannot recommend enough.
Came here on a whim during my lunch break and I'm hooked. The General Tso's Chicken was easily the best version I've had this year. Friendly staff, fast service, and they actually got my order right the first time. Will be back next week.
Brought the family on a Saturday and we all walked out happy. Kids loved their food, my partner ordered the General Tso's Chicken and finished every bite. Prices feel fair for the portions. The dining room was a little loud but that's expected on weekends.
Solid spot. The Pad Thai is a standout — bold flavors, well-seasoned, comes out hot. Took off a star only because the wait at the counter was longer than I expected on a weekday. Still, I'd come back without hesitation.
