Freya is a multi-course dinner restaurant focused on executing the points of service at upper echelon restaurants in larger markets while ditching the pomp and circumstance traditions that make regular people feel out of place. The last several years have been extremely challenging for most people. We feel strongly that great food, great drinks, and great hospitality are things everyone deserves. Especially you.

We offer a multi course menu and can accommodate the following diets: Omnivore (no dietary restrictions), Pescatarian (vegetarian + seafood), or vegan (no animal products used). With notice, we’re also able to modify many items to be gluten-free. We respectfully ask that further modification requests only be made in cases of serious allergies; we may not be able to accommodate certain dietary restrictions

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Doug Hewitt

From the OpenTable editors: A 2022 New York Times pick for the 50 most exciting restaurants in America, Freya is the place to be for a wildly creative fine-dining experience that feels casual and unpretentious. Executive chef Douglas Hewitt leads a super collaborative team that creates the seasonal menu in unison in the open kitchen. You might find a buñuelo dotted with caviar or lobster tangled in pea tendrils and immediately feel compelled to return so you can discover the latest adds to the menu.

The Staff couldn't be kinder or more knowledgeable. Everyone seemed genuinely invested in our experience. We were still praising the evening as we drove home. Our Sommelier was particularly helpful in picking out two stellar bottles. Genuine gratitude for a special night.

Great food, excellent service. We loved the explanation of the courses as they came to the table as well as the drinks that got explained. My vegetarian friend really appreciated the options they had for her! Overall, a great venue for a work gathering. Which is what we were there for. We had the 5 course menu option and it was a 2.5 hour event. It was the perfect timing for me and my team. Would recommend, and will return in the future.

Service was excellent, well timed, perfectly executed. It was our anniversary and we received a signed card and a splash of bubbly when we arrived. Food was outstanding and the ambiance was great, not too loud, good music. Highly recommend!

We love Freya, but for a pre-show quick bite and glass of wine we figured Dragonfly was the spot -- after all, their food comes from Freya's kitchen. Food did not disappoint; the Wagyu Pastrami sandwich, in particular, was to die for. Service was also outstanding. What did disappoint was the wine selection -- just one red, one white and one Prosecco were on offer.
