We had a delightful dinner at Eden. The food was amazing and so carefully prepared. The wine list was quite expansive, and we used the wine search tool to find a great option. Service was exceptional. I recommend making a reservation as seating is limited.

Truly the best restaurant in the area! Everything is tastefully done- from the sophisticated ambiance, to creative local drink offerings, to the thoughtful menu. The food is impeccably executed. We had decadent, bone-in ribeye that was well aged and cooked to perfection including savory crust and tender center. The halibut with saffron rice and seasonal vine vegetables, made even my eight year old practically lick his plate for more. Thank you for not only an exceptional meal, but an unforgettable experience.

EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE! After hearing reviews of Eden, we reserved a table on a Wednesday evening. From the time we entered, the service was fantastic. The craft cocktails were amazing, only upstaged by the steak entrees. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit, and would certainly recommend Eden.

I've heard a lot of good things about this place so we went there for dinner. When you walk in, you're greeted with the smell of burning wood from the kitchen. Everything is cooked with wood fire which adds a unique taste and aroma to the food there. You can see the kitchen at the end of the dining area where the food is prepared. The dining area is small but you never feel rushed to finish your meal. The waiting staff were all great and very attentive to the patrons. There's a large drink menu if that's what you're into. The food itself was amazing. I love the detail put into the dishes. The staff mentioned that they try to source their ingredients locally. Every bite was amazing. I would definitely recommend this restaurant if you haven't been here already.

Had a wonderful experience at Eden! The dishes were full of flavor and beautifully presented. You can really tell how much thought goes into each plate. The wine selection was impressive, and the search tool made it super easy to find the perfect pairing. The staff were friendly and very attentive throughout the night. It's a cozy spot, so I’d definitely suggest booking a table in advance. Can’t wait to go back!

It's been a while since I had a meal that was perfect. I wouldn't say I'm a food snob, but I know good food, and everything we ate was transcendent. The snapper was flawlessly prepared, crispy outside and buttery inside, and sat atop what I hesitate to call "grits" (because it was a different animal than what you're thinking). The mushroom toast was probably something I would eat every day if given the chance. We sat at the bar, and the service was impeccable. Delightful experience! Highly recommend.

This restaurant is just wonderful the lighting and plants etc lend to the “Eden” atmosphere which are newer changes and just make this restaurant and even better place to have a special dinner. The food of course was amazing with steaks cooked to perfection and the capelletti is to die for!!!! Small plates were all fantastic and the local red blend wine from standing stone was the perfect addition to our meal. Thank you to Paige and Tyler for the amazing service and the the food as always was just perfection!

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

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.

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!

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!

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!

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!

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.

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!

Was in town for work, so this was a place I would casually walk in to on a Wednesday night and grab a meal as it was rather pricey. With that being said, it was well worth it. Extensive wine list, excellent food from start to finish, and very good service. If you get a chance, will with trying.

An excellent dining experience....solicitous, prompt, not hovering, friendly, and funny staff! Excellent cuisine, love the local sourcing and suggested pairings. Just one area that would benefit from attention: the pan-roasted chicken. It was dry, stringy, and hard to cut, disappointing.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

Thanks for bringing in the new year New York Sirloin style! Ordered take out New Year's eve. Rich and the folks at Eden served up some very tasty choices including the New York steak sirloin for two. Fabulous flavor, cooked medium rare, including carrots and chimichurri. Add to the order soup and dessert!

We had the pleasure of dining at Eden last night and had a wonderful meal coupled with great service. My wife ordered the halibut and I had their NY strip steak. Everything was cooked to perfection and I recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting great food coupled with some local NY wines that won't disappoint.

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. However when they did nail dishes they NAILED it! My favorites of the night were the garganelli beet pasta, mushroom toast, and the dessert. For anyone drinking, get the Wax Off cocktail! It was made very well & comes with a hunk of honey toffee.

One of my favorite restaurants in Syracuse. You can always count on friendly service from the waiting staff and creative cocktails from the bar. My entree was the star of the show - an 11 ounce tenderloin served over potatoes, kale and chimichurri sauce. I would come back again and again just for this dish. I'd highly recommend trying Eden if you're in town.

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!

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).

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!

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.

Hats off to Eden. Really well done at the bar and the kitchen. They work hard to be unique and provide a unique experience. Big things ahead for Eden. We had the mushroom toast to start. WOW. Lots of flavor and textures going on but I think that is a theme throughout. My wife and I shared the cheese tortellini, beet salad and mussels. WOW WOW & WOW. We matched the dishes with unique cocktails. The Sleeper was a great start. The Island Supply went well and stood up well with the acid in the salad and mussels. Finished with the Cacao and Cabernet which was nice with the Chocolate Pot de Crème. Staff was great - and "spoiler alert" the sommelier behind the bar is a genius. Yes there are rough edges that they will improve with time. Coming out of Covid is hard and I expect cash flow with success will fix them. I got the feeling that there is a bit of perfectionism behind the curtain that future patrons will get the benefit from. We were just passing through and hope to come back through and see the evolution. Enjoy!

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.

If you want some superb ingredients, then go to Eden. There are not many restaurants like it in Syracuse. The staff is a class act too. Our bartender is both a scholar and a gentleman. I will be back. I will annoy all my friends and family until they go there. I will mock them if they aren't impressed. Eden is perfect.

A very gourmet spot for Syracuse. They serve NY spirits and an extensive wine list. The drinks are quite fancy and well made. They offer a very limited menu with a few small plate and large plate options. We opted for mussels and the strip steak. Both were amazing. I do appreciate that the bartender asked about any allergies as their menu is a bit difficult to comprehend. Very limited seating due to the size of the restaurant so I would recommend making a reservation. Definitely worth giving them a try!

Came here in a whim for a last minute date-night and came away saying that it was exactly what we were hoping for. Eden has a cozy and hip atmosphere and all of the staff were very friendly. We were able to be seated at the bar without any reservation or wait on a Saturday evening. The cocktail choices were all fun and unique, and Eden also has pretty extensive wine and beer menus as well. The food was exceptional. We split two appetizers and a main course, which was enough food for two people. For starters, we had the goat cheese salad and grilled octopus and for the main course we ordered the parsnip ravioli. The prices are slightly above what we normally pay for a dinner in Syracuse, but the quality was also above, so it was definitely worth it! Would highly recommend for a date night or a nice place to bring out-of-town guests!

Eden is my new favorite restaurant in Syracuse! First off, the dining room feels homey, but modern. The seating area gets extra heat from the open flames in the back. The drinks are amazing and they even have very delicious zero proof cocktails. They also have outside seating where they are growing some fresh herbs. The food is definitely the star! The menu is unique, fresh, and changes based on what is available at local markets. Even the veggies served on the sides of the dishes are cooked and seasoned to perfection. The quail, steak, and fish (lubina) were the best, but everything was great. I have a dairy allergy and they were also great about accommodating to my needs.

The farm to table theme here is legit! Their menu pretty much changes daily depending on the ingredients sourced. Loved my Quail appetizer, you could taste the smoke from their grill in the squash purée. My modified squid entree brought it home! I swapped the squid ink linguini with their amber roasted carrots. Loved the roasted and smoked flavor 2nd Visit: rocked the celery root purée with chorizo as the app and then the Hanger Steak over roasted carrots for my entree. Love that they source from sustainable businesses for ingredients that they can't source local.

This was my very first time to Eden! I absolutely loved the place!! The decor was amazing, the smell of the wood-fire cooking was pleasant, and the atmosphere felt perfect! Definitely a great date place! My partner and I ordered some delicious cocktails. She got the spiced plum drink and I got the cranberry one! Both were spot on. We ordered one small plate and one large plate each. Let me tell you! Those were not small plates!! We got the octopus dish and the head cheese with pate dish. Both were quite large but hey, both tasted amazing!!! Definitely would reorder both next time! For the large dishes, she got the porchetta dish and I got the tortellini dish. Well what can I say?? Spot on, flavorful, and definitely worth it! I would recommend that if you get two large plates, stick to one small plate to share! Finally, because we didn't want to stop there, we went all in and got a dessert to share. We ended up with a sandwich ice cream crumble! I loved the sandwich crumble while my partner loved the chocolate on the side! Nonetheless, the whole dessert wasn't too sweet, the right size, and had some interesting flavors! Additionally, the staff was super responsive, never gave me the feeling I was forgotten, and always presented themselves in a friendly manner! A+ !! Overall, 5/5 on both staff and food! The food is a bit pricey but I would definitely pay it again since this is such a fun and unique place in Syracuse!

My girlfriend and I went to Eden for dinner tonight and we both thought it was fantastic. The staff is extremely friendly, attentive and do a great job. They all work together like a well oiled machine and did not miss out on anything. For the food, it was delicious!! Their farm to table niche is on point. The freshness of their vegetables, chicken, steak and scallops were robust and extremely flavorful. You're tasting a meals like it was harvested and sent directly from the farm earlier in the day. The restaurant has a great comforting and relaxing feel. I would highly recommend making the trip to Eden. We will definitely make it back sometime soon! Thank you to the Eden staff!

Recently tried Eden per a recommendation from a friend and I was absolutely blown away in every capacity! The ambiance, quality of the food, and service was incredible. Most notably, our experience with the bartender raised my bar for any experience elsewhere! The bartender, Noah Brigham, was very friendly and welcoming immediately. I requested a surprise drink to be made for me with just a little info of the kind of flavors I usually like. Noah's drink blew me away and I already can't wait to go back for not just his creativity but the lovely conversation as well!

Wow was this place great! The service was impeccable. The food was inspired. The chef sent us complimentary caviar which was intoxicatingly delicious. Every little detail was perfect here. The menu was select but deciding what to eat was quite a challenge. In the end, my wife chose a steak entree and I had a chicken entree. We ended up swapping meals and we both walked away completely satisfied. I would say this was definitely one of my top 5 dining experiences in my life and I'm a "foody." I love trying new things but I know that if I ever get back to Syracuse, even for just one day, I'll be sure to make this part of the trip.

This place was absolutely amazing. The food is cooked from woodfired stoves which is brilliant. Octopus was amazing with a great char to it along with all the other entrées we had. The mixed drinks were out of this world thanks to Keenan. this is the place to go to impress somebody or simply have a good time. I love open kitchens. Don't forget about the food it is the best in the area.
