Linger reanimates an old mortuary into a lively rooftop “eatuary” serving globally inspired small plates and inventive cocktails.
"Multiple floors with diverse seating arrangements — including several huge booths — put this eternally hip LoHi hang on the shortlist for a pack of pals, while the eclectic selection of small plates further ensures there’s something for everyone involved: Korean fried chicken bao with kimchi, trumpet mushroom skewers with whipped tofu, devils on horseback with pomegranate gastrique, and fattoush in pickled cranberry-burnt maple vinaigrette, for instance." - Ruth Tobias
"Between the dining room and the menus, the innovation at Linger is exceptional. Linger also has the best patio in the city. This is a great spot for lunch, dinner, happy hour and late night cocktails." - Novel
"For going on 15 years, this LoHi den of eclecticism in an old mortuary has been doing global fusion like no place else in town. At brunch, the kitchen might mash up Thai and Southern food in the form of green curry shrimp and grits; give eggs Benedict a Korean twist with galbi and kimchi hollandaise; or serve India’s pancake-like flatbread uttapam with lentil korma, tomato chutney, and maple syrup. And the bar follows suit, serving soju-plum martinis alongside rum- and Sherry-spiked Thai tea. (Meanwhile, Linger’s not the only Edible Eats property that does a bang-up brunch: Root Down, located in a midcentury gas station, rocks the zucchini-bread French toast and lamb burgers, while Ophelia’s Electric Soapbox frequently hosts themed DJ sets.)" - Lucy Beaugard, Eater Staff, Ruth Tobias
"Atop this onetime LoHi mortuary turned eclectic Edible Beats “eatuary,” spectacular sunsets enhance the mood set by cocktails served from an old VW van alongside snacks like devils on horseback and BBQ duck bao — which were in fact made for lingering over while waving to the people in the endless line for Little Man ice cream below." - Eater Staff
