It’s not every day Hillsboro Village gets a new restaurant, but the neighborhood can now claim another upscale dining spot in its culinary scene.

Twenty First, a new two-level concept by Just One More Hospitality Group (Noble’s, Crow’s Nest, and Dalton’s Grill) opens Saturday, Jan. 18 at 1602 21st Ave. S. It’s dinner service only for now but expect lunch and brunch offerings in the coming months.

We’re all about “phone eats first” and sharing our favorite bites. Check out the gallery below for a sneak peek of these menu highlights:

  • Appetizers | Deviled eggs (dijon, house-made pickles, and trout roe) + crab rangoons drizzled in sweet Thai chili sauce
  • Mains | Scallops made with lemon caper beurre blanc, romanesco puree, roasted sweet potatoes, and charred lemon + the New York strip steak served with mushroom sauce and truffle fries
  • Dessert | Cheesecake

Fun fact: The Bloodline cocktail (Jim Beam, blood orange, and citrus with a red wine float) was crafted by lead bartender Evan “Beam” Childers, a great-great-grandson of Jim Beam.
