Which sentence sounds better:

 

1. Maria doesn't like beets, but Daniel likes them even lesser.

2. Maria doesn't like beets, but Daniel likes them even less.

 

*I also have these options: little and littler instead of lesser and less

Lesser is grammatically incorrect in this situation. Therefore less is the only option. 

A better way to phrase this would be 

Maria dislikes beets, but Daniel dislikes them even more.

#2 does. Lesser is not the correct way to say that sort of thing.

even less is the correct wording. Even lesser doesn't sound right. Try saying it out loud.
