    This was my second time visiting Eden. I so enjoyed the first time, I had to go back! My daughter and I went for dinner last night. We ordered drinks from the mixologist who surprised us with very yummy cocktails. We started with appetizers which was the beet salad, and it was delightful. We also had the mushroom toast, absolutely one of my favorites. Then a house salad. We ordered the strip steak with hearth smashed potatoes, Chimichurri, Kale, Creme Fraiche. It was so tender, moist and full of flavor! Our dessert consisted of Lemon tart, my favorite and Blueberry Panna Cotta. " OMG so wonderful"! One thing that made this restaurant a great hit for me, was sitting at the bar, discussing menu favorites with other guests and making new friends. Thank you again for a wonderful evening!

    We all ate off of the dining week menu and each made different choices—what a great value, everything was full sized and excellently prepared. We had meatballs, calamari and salads for appetizers and Cacio e Pepe, pasta Amtricana, a Margherita and a pepperoni pizza. A great local staple in Syracuse.
