Edulis is about many things – the pleasure of enjoying a gathering around the table to share authentic dishes and to be greeted like a friend; conviviality, feasting, celebrating the craft and tradition of cooking, honesty, and spectacular ingredients.
Our strength at Edulis is cooking for you -listening to your preferences, aversions, appetite, and making you a beautiful feast. As the season unfolds, so does our inspiration. Our menus change to showcase the ingredients of the moment – with a strong focus on seafood, vegetables, and wild mushrooms. We encourage you to put yourselves into our hands: we offer two choices of menus – 5 or 7 courses for $65/$85. In truffle season we also offer Truffle Menus
We accept reservations 1 month in advance for parties of 1 – 5 people. For parties of 6, please call the restaurant. Please note that tables of 6 are the largest we can accommodate in our tiny dining room. For inquiries for the private event space, please email us at info@edulisrestaurant.com. We look forward to welcoming you to Edulis!
