Little Bull is sincere, nostalgic comfort food, inspired by the palates of first-generation immigrant kids.

Pocho cuisine is not a gimmick. Like Oscar, it’s a little bull-headed, but with no bullshit. It means more than loaded terms like “New American” or “modern Mexican.” And it’s authentic to Chef’s personal experience.

“American food is undefined. But it’s been designated to certain ideas and people. It’s actually evolving, as much as our landscape is a melting pot. As much as my own identity as a first-generation American and chef.”

Pocho started as a term used by people in Mexico to poke fun at the “American” kids who speak Spanglish. At Little Bull, pocho cuisine showcases the evolution of being a chef in America, inspired by every immigrant and their growing influence on our food.

    Creatively delicious small plates to share with friends in a festive atmosphere. And the cocktails are wonderful, too. Our server was delightful…knowledgeable of the dishes and very attentive without being overbearing.

    The food is amazing! Lots of fun cocktails. They might have been busy or understaffed, it was very challenging to get a server's attention. Food and drinks came out quickly.

    The food was incredible, every dish! We had to box up our last large sized dish. Drinks and food recommendations were on point! We had a very nice NYE dinner with our family. It is a little loud, but still great and funky chic environment.
