Fodor's Expert Review Eden Hill

This tiny, 24-seat restaurant quietly turns out some of the most exciting and innovative food in the city. With patterned wallpaper, a location on the serene side of Queen Anne, chalkboard menus, and tables cozied into wide windows, it’s the perfect place to lean in close to someone special over a series of small plates. The menu changes constantly, but it is always full of local ingredients transformed into twists on classic dishes: look for intriguing options such as Dungeness crab beignets, cauliflower chilaquiles, and a pig head candy bar. The chef’s signature dish, “lick the bowl” is an unmissable riff on cake batter made with foie gras.
