The highlights were the cocktails, and I loved that they had an NA cocktail option for our group. The outdoor patio is right on Hollywood boulevard, but you feel like you are in a private oasis tucked away and surrounded by plants! Would definitely dine again and cannot wait to try their new THERE THERE concept, opening soon.

My first time there but my birthday! I feel like to give you an hour and a half limit at a table felt a little rushed. Because by the time you got your food ate at a conversation it was a little bit over there an hour and a half. Overall the restaurant was very nice.

My husband and I have been going to Eden for date night about 10 years now and I will say that every single time it has been a wonderful experience! My favorite is the Black Label burger, and it is consistently delicious. I love that the recipe hasn’t changed and it still tastes as it did when I just had it. Staff is friendly and professional. Bartenders make yummy drinks. It’s just a place of great food, music and ambiance. I just love it here! My faves : Black Label Burger Tuna Tartar Truffle fries Shishito peppers

My only critique is the noise level of the music was so loud it was hard to hear the person I was with across the table. But the service, the food, and the ambience were wonderful other than that.
