    This was my second time visiting Eden. I so enjoyed the first time, I had to go back! My daughter and I went for dinner last night. We ordered drinks from the mixologist who surprised us with very yummy cocktails. We started with appetizers which was the beet salad, and it was delightful. We also had the mushroom toast, absolutely one of my favorites. Then a house salad. We ordered the strip steak with hearth smashed potatoes, Chimichurri, Kale, Creme Fraiche. It was so tender, moist and full of flavor! Our dessert consisted of Lemon tart, my favorite and Blueberry Panna Cotta. " OMG so wonderful"! One thing that made this restaurant a great hit for me, was sitting at the bar, discussing menu favorites with other guests and making new friends. Thank you again for a wonderful evening!

    This restaurant is one of the best. The chef is remarkable, the food has some unique flavors, and the presentation is just beautiful. The staff are accommodating, and the atmosphere is very warm and inviting. The perks are unusual, and we will continue to return as often as we can.

    Was happy they had a Velentines Special. Been awhile since we’ve been there. Always nice to have a valet service! Everyone was very pleasant… Shelly was our server and she was super attentive. The manager, Greg was very pleasant and working to make sure all tables were being serviced and things operating smooth. Our food was enjoyable… I had the Rack of Lamb and was very happy; wife enjoyed her Filet. Hope they catch some momentum and keep this going… it’s such a nice experience….
