I had a nice evening at Eden. Parking wasn't bad. Reservations are a must as it is rather small inside. We were promptly seated and ordered glasses of wine while perusing the menu, which is on the smaller side. That usually means everything on it is rather good, so we had high expectations. We started with the Mushroom Toast, Ember Roasted Carrots, and Beef Tartar. I'll start with the bad and finish with the good. The Ember Roasted Carrots were a complete miss. They were trying to go for a middle-eastern flavor, with each ingredient contrasting, while the carrot served as the centerpiece to flavor. I found this to be INCREDIBLY bland. The carrots were not salted enough during roasting and lacked enough char. They dish also needed more labneh than it was served with. It literally just tasted like carrots and yoghurt. Honestly, if I could only give one critique it would be to have used more salt, but this dish was a real disappointment. The Beef Tartar suffered from a similar issue. It was bland. Not enough salt was used. It unfortunately tastes like flat beef. I overheard the bartender talking to another couple and he told them they really want to highlight the ingredients. The idea is purity or something like that. And that's well and good, but you still need to season beef tartar. I don't think this is necessarily a poor execution of the dish(es) rather this is more in line with the philosophy of the kitchen, and that's fine. It's just not for me. And now for the good. The Mushroom Toast was great. It had all the things I had wanted. Fat, salt, umami, freshness. This was a good dish and I would get this again. As for the entrees, my husband and I ordered the Cappelletti and the NY Strip. The Cappelleti was the strongest dish of the night. The flavors were layered and intentional. This was a great dish and I1000% would get it again. My husband ordered the NY Strip along with bone marrow. It was cooked to perfection. Cooking it over a wood fire gave it a great char and almost Smokey flavor. It was very flavorful. The chimichurri made the steak feel lighter than it actually was. My husband loved it and I loved having a bite or two of everything together. This was a complete dish and I'd highly recommend it. The only knock I could give it is the bone marrow. There was a lack of volume in it which is probably due to being cooked over a wood fire. Parts of the bones were also over roasted. I'd skip this the next time and get the foie gras pate. Lastly, for desert we were disappointed that we could not try the rice pudding as they were out of it (we will try it the next time if available). We did however order the Flourless Chocolate Torte to share. It was made perfectly. It was rich and decadent but remained light. It was almost like a mousse, but not quite. We loved it. Overall, the had a great time. There were several highlights and I think they make up for the a couple of the earlier dishes. I'd like to see what else they have to offer when they change their menu. read more

I was brought to Eden for an upscale dinner for my Birthday. My friend, trying to impress me, got us reservations. We arrived a little early due to the lack of parking in downtown Syracuse in that area, and because it was very windy and cold that day, so we didn't want to have to walk a long way if we didn't have to. What luck- we found a good parking spot. Eden is tucked away and you really have no idea it's there in a row of restaurants/bars unless you know it's there. Once inside, it's a small restaurant seemingly perfect for an intimate and romantic dinner. Dry aged beef is on display when you walk in, showing off their talent and skill here at Eden. The wood fire they use to cook everything is on full display at the back of the restaurant. The wine selection along the back of the bar is extensive. They use ipads as their menu and there is an interactive feature that helps you choose what kind of wine you may like! However, because we were about 20 minutes early, we were seated at the bar for a drink while we waited for our table. We were told the owners wanted a favor, so their friends came and were using our table. 40 minutes passed and we were finally seated at our table. And then forgotten about for another 25 minutes. We were not given a menu, but we had luckily seen one online and at the bar briefly before it was taken away for another table that got seated. We had to ask that table for the menu back so we could look at the wine selection while we waited. When the waiter, who had seated us at the bar and was well aware of our existence (same person in every interaction for us thus far), finally came over asking if we knew what we wanted, we answered quickly so that we wouldn't be forgotten about again. We decided to share some apps, and share a dry aged ribeye. Mind you, this is not on the menu. Nor was a price mentioned to us at any point during this ... let's say, encounter. We were asked if we wanted the 25 or 29 oz steak. We were sharing it, so we said 29. What do we know? Later, the appetizers/small plates came out. The beef tartare was subpar, barely seasoned and very dry. The best bite was the pickled vegetable on the plate however it completely overpowered the flavor of anything you ate with it if you were attempting to eat it with the tartare. The lentil small plate with fried haloumi was the start of the small plates. My friend hadn't had haloumi, and she loved that part! The dish was a bit plain though, it really needed some acid so it was made a better bite if you took some of the pickled veg from the tartare plate with it. The braised short rib was... meh. Literally my favorite thing of all time, braised short rib- I thought it would be a sure winner! Unfortunately I was sorely mistaken here. The polenta/grits (I can't remember which it was) was undercooked and lumpy, and there were so many fried shallots that it hid the beef! It was, however, a perfectly cooked medium egg (which I can never find anywhere I go for breakfast...) and that seemed odd like it needed to be a runny egg. We were then given a nice light salad as a pallet cleanser as we waited for our main dish. Then comes the steak. Turns out we don't like bone marrow. That isn't their fault. It was roasted well, but it was a texture thing for us, lol! The steak was beautiful on the outside, but it needed some salt since it came pre-sliced, it really needed some Maldon salt or something. We asked for medium rare and it was medium and medium well towards the end pieces. The smashed potatoes underneath were delicious, though. The cookie for dessert with the panna cotta and blueberry topping was my favorite part of the whole meal. The lemony buttermilk cookie against the blueberry sweetness and the acidic panna cotta- it was delightful. Here are the memorable negatives of my experience: - because we were never told the price of the steak, we were literally shell-shocked to see the bill say that the Ribeye was $108. - besides being seated and then forgotten about, we were seated on the bottom level just under another large table of about 13 people. These people were watching the Buffalo Bills playoff game on their phones (I think?) and were being EXTREMELY LOUD at what I believe is supposed to be an intimate restaurant. I hate to say that I wouldn't recommend this restaurant. I have heard so many good things. But.. just no. Neither myself nor my friend would ever return. And while the restaurant did comp the small plates for us as a 'sorry', I don't think they really understood just how many things went wrong despite our attempts to communicate them. read more

This was our first time at Eden. My wife and I took our son during parent's weekend at Syracuse. It was a little difficult to find because the entrance is nondescript. When you walk in, you see the hostess and one or two tables. The main part of the restaurant is a few steps down. They really were innovative with the space. At the very rear is an open kitchen and to the left is a nice bar seating area. I have a photo to show the layout. Our server came over and greeted us. She made some great drink selections and guided us through the menu. The menu is small but diverse. Once again, good innovation. I started with their take on a Manhattan and my wife had a specialty one that I can't remember. They were excellent - smooth and well balanced. We received the chefs amusement which was very tasty. We ordered the mushroom toast with the poached egg and the Halloumi cheese as appetizers . They were fantastic. This was a good sign. They had some specialty steaks which was what my son and I were looking for. They are dry aged on site. He got the 12 ounce tenderloin and I got a 25 ounce bone-in ribeye with bone marrow as an accompaniment. My wife got the halibut. It would be a bold faced lie if I told you that I have had a better prepared and flavorful steak. My son ate the whole thing!! I had half left over and took it with me to the hotel fridge and home to RI for a great lunch. My wife's halibut was good but not in the league of those steaks. Was it expensive? Yes it was but it was totally worth it. The items on the menu and cocktails are reasonable considering the quality. The steaks are $$$$ but SO GOOD. I think it is the best food I have had in Syracuse and a fun atmosphere. Try it! read more

They don't have apples on the menu, but the food here is heavenly. The entrees (strip steak, filet and roast chicken) are the stars of the menu, taking advantage of the wood-fired oven. The desserts were fantastic as well, although the lemon tart is much more substantial than the chocolate lava cake. The roasted carrots were delicious but quite pricey for what you get. I'd pass on the root vegetable charcuterie. Hard to find from the street in Hanover Square. It's next to Maxwells. Cozy subterranean space. Tables by the wood fired area are the most charming read more

The unassuming entrance, I finally entered. The smell was totally intoxicating, the vibes reminded me of Fish Friar. The iPad menu was a pleasant "boojie" surprise, along with the starting compliments-of-the-chef goat cheese crostini. A white glass of wine & lemon cocktail were needed with the beet salad (yummy flavors and textures) and Beef Confit (I personally didn't like). Then, I HAD to get the infamous strip, chimichuri with tons of mushrooms, as well as chicken that I can't remember the name of but was fall off the bone. Ended with the Lemon meringue which was a great flavor cleanser. Definitely returning for some fall dishes!l read more

After hearing great things about Eden from friends and family, we finally gave it a try. We made a reservation for 5:30 and the restaurant was mostly empty when we arrived. We were seated at the bar, which was made of stone/concrete. The regular dinner tables were made of cool looking wood slabs, and the whole restaurant had a very approachable but still upscale vibe. They gave us a tablet with the menu and full wine list, and explained how to navigate it. I liked that the wine list had lots of local options, but featured selections from more typical wine regions like France and California as well. There weren't any mocktails listed, but when I asked the bartender he offered two mocktail options. I had the grapefruit one and it was very good. The food menu did not exactly match what was online, so I'd recommend coming in with an open mind or calling the restaurant if you had your heart set on a certain dish other than steak. For steaks, I noticed that they sold out of certain cuts throughout the evening, so I'd recommend a reservation on the early side if you want a full range of options. In general, I didn't find the service overly attentive, but we were checked on often enough and served fairly quickly. The bartender who was waiting on us did a nice job describing the cuts of steak available. Before our entrees arrived, they brought out an amuse bouche and a green salad, which is a nice touch. I had the pasta entree and my husband ordered a steak, and we both cleared our plates. We had the chocolate mousse for dessert which was a nice portion to share. Overall, I'd recommend this restaurant and hope to return soon. As someone who doesn't really eat steak, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I really enjoyed my meal and the overall experience. read more

A foodie gem tucked away in downtown Syracuse. My handcrafted cocktail was made with all local distillery ingredients - buttery smooth. I thoroughly enjoyed the green lentil salad uniquely accented with toasted Harumi. And the braised brisket was nicely flavored, juicy, and cooked to perfection. Enjoyed the conversation with the waitstaff. A super experience! read more

The service is friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The food selection is not extensive. They have small plates and large plates. Steak, chicken, fish and pasta choices. All unique and cooked to order. I had NY Strip steak, as did another person in our party. Also selected... Halibut (beautiful presentation) and a pasta dish with goat cheese. All four of us loved our meals. Yummy sides and delicious sauces came with each one. Three folks ordered dessert (a lemon merengue, chocolate mousse, and a blueberry compote). Brian (our server - phenomenonal) brought me a spoon so I could sample them if allowed. Pretty funny! Everything is presented so well. This is a farm to table place with almost all food locally sourced. The Halibut is from Maine. The evening was a 10/10. Only thing they need to do differently is put felt on the bottom of the chair legs. Very noisy when chairs move! read more

Eden - NY Strip steak with grilled potatoes and compound butter. - American Near Me - Syracuse, New York

Eden is a great spot for an upscale dinner with a relaxed feel. The host was warm in greeting us and the menu is short but sweet (except maybe for their great selection of spirits and wine). They explain that 95% of what is served is sourced locally within the state of New York. I love this style of dining and am happy we have a spot right in here in Syracuse. My beeswax gin cocktail was delicious and each of the dishes we had tasted great. The halloumi, mushroom toast, and chicken were cooked perfectly. They had us eating up every bite and leaving the plate clean. Service was pleasant - they were attentive and helpful but never stiff. They made some modifications to the mushroom toast (bread on side) for my gluten allergy which I'm always grateful for. This is a great spot to grab a nightcap with a friend, split a glass of wine and a bite to eat or enjoy the full dinner service. The open wood fired kitchen gives the place a cozy, relaxed feel. We loved the food and will be back! read more

This was our fourth time dining at Eden and served as a reminder for why we continue to come back for more. Girlfriend and I had a reservation for Valentine's Day and were seated promptly on-time. We opted for a glass of sparkling wine each, and shared the Beet Salad and Beef Confit appetizers to start off our evening. Delicious! Pleasantly surprised to find that the beets were served warm -- great flavor profile with the goat cheese. After having dined here multiple times, we both came in knowing what exactly we wanted for our entrees -- the NY Strip. These were both cooked perfectly and were a great serving size, in fact, larger than we remember! A great amount of kale on both made for a well-balanced dish with a tremendous flavor profile from the wood-fired steak and chimichurri. I opted to add the compound butter to mine, which proved to be the cherry on top of a delicious meal. Finally, we finished with the chocolate mousse, which is a must for us every time we dine here. Overall, we had a wonderful meal and memorable visit to Eden. We did feel a bit rushed at times by the waitstaff checking in to clear plates, but nothing that impacted our evening to an overwhelmingly negative degree. We will definitely be back for our next special occasion! read more

!! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY !! The food here is simply not good. Everything we had was bland and completely underwhelming. On top of that, the service was bizarrely slow (despite the restaurant being tiny). We were also placed at the wobbliest table I've ever sat at, and we found out that the owner does not care to fix it. Additionally, the restaurant is incredibly loud. Factor in the high prices and this made for a terrible experience. Anyone reading this, please look elsewhere for a good meal. read more

We were a party of 6 that dropped to three and they were super understanding! Brian was our waiter and he was fabulous! I couldn't decide on a cocktail so opted for sparkling water and he didn't push or ask me again which I appreciated. He was knowledgeable and answered all our questions! Everything was perfect! Every single bite! Food is on the pricier side but so worth it! Fresh, tasty and cooked perfectly! We will be back! read more

We loved the atmosphere stepping into Eden for dinner. It's smaller than I anticipated, but cozy, and smells of lovely wood fire. The service is top notch, with no detail missed from an Amuse-bouche to a special interactive wine menu, to a kind manager walking around and helping with things like tucking in your coat when she sees it hanging on the floor. Top-notch! Kyle was such an amazing delight and gave us the perfect amount of attention and space. Now the good part (food!) I started with the Red blend and the beet salad. The beets were warm and perfectly cooked, and the dish had some tangy like mandarin oranges, and delicious melty goat cheese. It was delicious! The Amuse-bouche was a little crouton with goat and pickled grape. I don't think I've had a more delicious goat cheese in my life- perfectly balanced and lovely tasting. I didn't love the red blend, but it was fine. It was lighter than any red blend I've had, but I noticed later that it was a NY region wine so maybe that's why. I went on to try the Malbec, which was much more of what I was looking for. For dinner, I had the strip steak and my partner had the halibut. Both dishes were delicious! I may have scaled back just slightly on the saltiness on the strip dish, as it was on the border of too much. Steak was cooked to medium rare although ordered medium, but I didn't mind- it was delicious. Chimichurri was lovely, and I enjoyed the smashed potatoes. Menu was a touch on the pricey side, but I think it was well worth it to have locally sourced and sustainably sourced foods. We'll be back to try some more goodies! read more

I truly did not know what to expect, but went with the yelp reviews to help me choose Eden for dinner. I could not have been more satisfied. Although small, the restaurant was able to fit us in without reservations. The menu is limited, but I knew that ahead of time via the website and found a NY strip that sounded good. What a meal! The steak was absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked. This small restaurant produced one of the best steaks I have had, with an outstanding potato accompaniment. The seasoning was spot on, and the chimi sauce was a perfect match. The staff was friendly and helpful as well. Definitely a place to try. I will most definitely return. read more

I'm not sure if the chef only turns it on for reviewers, but I have no clue why this place has a good reputation. The small plates my husband and I ordered were disappointingly bland, especially for the price point, and even the drinks were one note. The service and ambiance were also similarly lackluster. Overall, we ducked out as quickly as we could and wouldn't recommend anyone bother with Eden if they enjoy good food. read more

It was an upscale experience and the food was excellent. They were very attentive to detail

A wonderful, relaxed and enjoyable evening at Eden. We were greeted and seated near the kitchen, which was great since we enjoy watching the chef and assistants creating the menu items. We also had a view of the bar, which was no less fascinating. We started off with a few cocktails (Social Disorder and The Final Conclusion) which were well made and very balanced. We were each given a small amuse bouche to perk our appetites. For a starter, I got the oyster plate. They were some of the best I've ever had. Then, another cocktail to go with my main course (Jalisco & Youth), the broiled fish, mussels & beans and champagne foam. My partner had a 6oz tenderloin (slightly overdone, but exceptionally tender). Her plate came with some herbed potatoes and braised kale, both of which were heavy on the herbs. For dessert, she had a glass of bubbly Reisling, while I had a Bitter Leonetto cocktail. Service was excellent, both the chef and head bartender visited our table throughout the evening, and we were encouraged to stay as long as we wished. A special place for special occasions. read more

Farm to table and doing it right. Meaning, in the days long ago, farm to table seemed to mean just fresh ingredients and a changing menu with the seasons. Now it seems to mean something more than that. Yes, fresh ingredients. Most likely a changing menu. More importantly, however, a completely fresh outlook on what ingredients are used and how they come together. Before the main meal came out, a small sample of grilled watermelon and feta was delivered to the table that was simply wonderful. It was followed by a simple salad of butter lettuce with an amazing orange dressing -- nothing else was needed to make the combination perfect. For the main course, I had hand rolled cavatelli -- brown butter, bread crumbs, goat cheese, heirloom tomato. Again, I am not going to ever get this anywhere else and the way the ingredients come together is magic. Put all of this in a small space with wonderful service, and you have Eden. The only downside I have is the pre-charge needed to reserve a table on OpenTable. Yes, you get charged nothing if you show, but I think it is something like $25 for a no-show. After seeing how small the place is I understand and forgive them on this point. The place is also not the easiest to find. There is a small triangular - shaped park in front of it and the road that separates the park from the restaurant seems to be pedestrian only. This, combined with a small sign, makes spotting it from an Uber not the easiest of things to do. However, be patient, it is there and is worth going to. Just make that reservation to ensure you have access to a table. read more

You don't want to miss anything on the menu! For small plates, our group of 4 had the mussels and salmon. I'm not a fan of mussels but tried one (the last one) and regretted not trying them sooner! They were a wonderful texture with delicious flavor. I had the cavatelli and the rest of the group had NY strips with various additions like mushrooms and bone marrow. Frozen crepes for dessert? Yes, please! The chocolate crème brûlée and the apple pie with puff pastry were equally delectable. The fun part is that Keegan, the bartender, can and will surprise you with thoughtful craft cocktails. He's a talent! read more

Expensive and mediocre. The mushroom toast was good but it sat in a ton of oil. I wouldn't eat there again.

One of the very best dinners I've ever had. The staff was so friendly and helpful. The crafted drinks were fantastic. I had the Band Island mussels. They were so tasty and the broth they were in was a perfect compliment. I ordered the tenderloin and it was melt in your mouth amazing. Its totally worth the price. The restaurant was very clean and had a very nice ambience. Can't wait to go back. read more

What a great dining experience. The 3 of us stopped by during labor day weekend and while we were slightly apprehended about sitting in door (given we are only used to outdoor dining in NYC), the restaurant made us feel at ease as customers were all spaced out with limited capacity. Since there were 3 of us and the menu for the day was simple with 3 choices under appetizer and entree, we decided to get one of each. For starters, we tried halloumi, lamb sausage, and sweet corn salad. Wow to both halloumi and sweet corn salad. We then received some greens to clean our palate. For Entrees, we shared the steak (medium rare), ravioli, and chicken. Each dish was executed perfectly. Even though we were very full by the end of the meal, we decided to make room for dessert as the sound of fresh pear with ice cream was so refreshing, and it was indeed. We were chatting with the restaurant and learned that the name Eden came from two of the co-owners (husband and wife chefs named Adam and Eve). read more

Our first time dining here lived up to expectations. There were a few things that could've been better such as; not being served over cooked chicken, not over grilling the octopus.

Atmosphere: warm and inviting. Once you open the front door you immediately are welcomed by the smells of the wood fire and freshly roasted foods. Drinks: we tried most of the drinks they were all well made and just strong enough. All the wines and spirits are local to ny. We tried the fail-safe, butternut sage daiquiri, and sweet potato painkiller. Our group also had the Pinot Grigio & the chainsaws and kittens beer. Food: there was so much food and it was all so delicious and flavorful that we couldn't stop eating it! First we ordered the autumn flatbread. Then a taster of a salted pepper along with pumpkin & pork belly, next grits (this was probably my favorite. I've never had grits before and now I want more). Next a salad with a light vinegarette was brought out and finally dinner. For dinner I had the lubina and a couple of tortellinis to try. Others had the hanger stead and the half chicken. All were excellent. read more

Delicious meal, personable server, amazing wood fire smell right when you walk in. We started with the beef tartare and the swedish meatballs, both were great. The swedish meatballs had a really unique spice I enjoyed, but the tartare took home the cake for sure. The toast points they serve with the tartare and meatballs are toasted on the wood fire so they're super smokey and full of delicious flavor. Also got the Winter Flower drink which wasn't super sweet and it had lovely layers and depth of flavor. For dinner I ordered the NY strip steak and it was to die for. Some of the most tender steak I've eaten and the potatoes and kale it came with were wonderfully cooked and seasoned. A couple people at the table said their steak was lukewarm/not hot, which can easily happen with large groups. But with the flavors and the quality, this meal was one of the best if not *the* best meal I have had in Syracuse. We finished with the chocolate mousse - yes the phone only ate for dessert. The mousse wasn't very light / moussey, but it was delicious. Not the best place for a large group - there were 7 of us and we were smushed into a 6 topper, but we had a lovely time and all of the food was amazing. Cannot recommend this place enough! read more

Eden - chocolate mousse - American Near Me - Syracuse, New York

Came here with a few of my girlfriends for girls night and we decided to just get the small plates and some drinks. However, if you're not a wine or beer person - this may not be your spot. We were forced to get wine since they didn't have cocktails we liked. We got ALL the dinner small plates. Unfortunately, they all were kind of the same? I mean almost all the small plates contained the same toasted bread/crostini to eat with except the oysters obviously. Thought it was too repetitive and they should've switched it up. The mushroom toast was the best. We loved it so much (of course it came with the same toasted thinly sliced bread/crostini). The burrata wasn't bad either, and the beef tartare was just okay to me. When we ordered the oysters, we asked our server how many did it include? And he said 6 and joked he'd eat one. When it came out, there were actually FIVE oysters for 3 of us.. so we were all questioning if he actually did eat one? But we didn't even want to ask. He was so annoying also. Two of us including me got sick too that evening, we were puking all night and didn't eat or drink anything after going here. Possible food poisoning from here too? Not sure. I'd give it another try maybe after a few long months and probably would try their entrees as I did hear good things about their steak. read more

What a unique spot! Cannot say enough good things about Eden. From the attentive staff to the mouth-watering food. The interior vibes are chill and inviting, their bartender Keenan is also great. A special location perfect for a date night, to celebrate, or just a "treat yourself" kind of evening. Sourcing fresh, local ingredients with as much as their menu as possible is something I adore about Eden. The menu changes seasonally, keeping things fun and exciting. Wood-fired food you won't find anywhere else in central NY. This is a must-try spot in Syracuse! read more

A small restaurant with a fantastic atmosphere. My husband and I did not have reservations but were able to be seated at the bar shortly after arriving. We started with the roasted bok choy, the NY strip and roasted chicken for our entrees, and a wonderful sour cherry vodka cocktail that was exactly what I didn't know I wanted. Even better was the company we were seated with. Met 2 wonderful gentleman and talked the night away long after closing. The staff was so nice throughout the evening. The only reason it's not 5 stars is the wine list. I LOVE that they source so much locally. However, NYS just doesn't do red wine well, and I'd very much like to see some decent red wines added to the list. read more
