Little Coyote is James Beard award-nominated Chef Erik Niel’s ode to smoked meats and fresh tortillas, two things that stole his heart during his time living in Texas. Located in the St. Elmo neighborhood of Chattanooga, TN, the restaurant opened in 2023 alongside celebrated sister restaurants Easy Bistro & Bar (2005) and Main Street Meats (2014). Promising a flavorful mix of Texan, Cuban, Caribbean and Southwestern cuisines, the food and drink menus feature melt-in-your-mouth barbecue and homemade corn tortillas accompanied by small plates, side dishes, moles and condiments, as well as an extensive collection of agave spirits. The casual atmosphere serves as a temporary escape to the Southwest, complete with terracotta tiles, turquoise accents and an expansive outdoor deck, designed by architects Tinker Ma in partnership with Erik’s talented wife, Amanda.

Armed with a strong concept and shell of a former restaurant space, the Niels called upon Green Olive to capture the spirited personality of their vision. Our wide-ranging experience with chef-driven and counter-service models made our design expertise a natural fit for their new venture. After spending time with Erik and Amanda in their Chattanooga restaurants, we embarked on establishing a name for the new eatery sure to stand apart from the competition within the market’s rapidly growing culinary landscape. “Little Coyote” quickly became a favorite amongst both teams, as a playful spin on the Spanish word ‘coyotito’, an idiomatic reference to a siesta after a large meal. We then immersed ourselves in logo development and branded applications including signage, murals, menus, website, apparel and collateral touchpoints. Both casual and playful at its core, our approach to the brand visuals suggests authenticity, approachability, and the high level of craft that informs an experience at Little Coyote from beginning to end.
