"In the bottom floor of the Hotel Theodore, Rider looks like a standard-issue upscale downtown hotel restaurant — but the menu is full of delightful surprises. Dishes center around Pacific Northwest cuisine, particularly seafood; everything’s locally sourced and put together in out-of-the-box ways. Standouts include the citrus salmon coho with gin cured roe and Ellenos Greek yogurt, and seared black cod with tokyo turnips and brown butter kohlrabi mousseline." - Gabe Guarente
