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.

    One of the great things about Freya is that the cuisine changes frequently enough for you to experience a new restaurant on a monthly basis. Check it out, they care!

    The service was outstanding and the wait staff was friendly. We loved the bread and salad, however, the rest of the food we ordered left much to be desired. None of the main courses sounded interesting so we had the brain salad and three appetizers. We didn’t really care for any of the appetizers. The cinnamon bread is the best cinnamon bread we’ve ever eaten the whitefish pate and the potato latkes were way too salty and we like salty food.

    Brought my sister-in-law there for her birthday. A lot of the staff made a point to come wish her happy birthday and even gave her a signed card. Food and service were excellent.

    I cannot say enough good things about this dining experience. I have been a few times and every single time has been just truly incredible. From the second you walk in to the second you leave the door, every moment is perfect. The attention to detail is truly amazing. Every morsel of food I have had from this restaurant has been absolutely delectable. As someone who eats primarily vegan it is such a delight to have truly gourmet food with very interesting tastes and textures that is vegan. When you leave your seat, your napkin is picked up and folded next to your plate when you return. When you return to your seat, your seat is often pulled out for you. Every single person is so kind and welcoming and helpful. Just to reiterate, the food is absolutely some of the best I have ever had.

    Love Freya and have been several time with friends. First time doing grand tasting menu with pairings and was overall pretty disappointed. Servers were not at all familiar with wine pairings/explanations which is expected at this price point. Courses were extremely slow to come out with wine poured way too early. Server actually forgot a course and my wife had to remind him to bring it. Advertised as 9- courses, however they counted a sorbet course and take home macarons. Of the 7 real courses - only 2 protein. Fish course cold. We left hungry. Felt a little scammed. Unsure if we will return.

    While the food is tremendous…my wife and I are truly in love with the service. The service is quietly excellent. Little things…things you don’t expect…but things you start to notice. The staff is phenomenal from the hostess greeting to floor staff. If you want to feel like you are the most important patron at restaurant…go to Freya!
