Global small plates & cocktails in a lively former mortuary
"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 den of eclecticism located in an old mortuary has served global fusion like no place else in town. At brunch, the kitchen might mash up French and Mexican food in the form of churro pain perdu with salted cream-cheese foam and hot chocolate sauce; give eggs Benedict a Korean twist with galbi and kimchi hollandaise; or serve Indian uttapam with lentil korma, tomato chutney, and maple syrup. And the bar follows suit, serving baharat-spiced Old Fashioneds alongside rum- and Sherry-spiked Thai tea. (Meanwhile, Linger’s not the only Edible Beats property that does a bang-up brunch: Root Down, located in a midcentury gas station, rocks the carrot-bread French toast and scrambled tofu with black lentil curry.)" - Ruth Tobias
"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
"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
