★★★★★ 5.0 Vaughn Kerrigan · Mar 2026

Had an excellent night out at the Edison. We were lost and looking for a place to eat, and as walk-ins we were able to get a table of 2 on a saturday night after a brief wait, thanks to the excellent host. Got the truffle fries and the butter burger pictured, probably one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. Alex was a fantastic server for our first time here, and even though it was very busy we were happily pleased by the service. Recommendations, refills, etc etc. Even with every table full, it never got too loud for conversation. I’d definitely come back.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Laura Majerczak · Jan 2026

I've dined here several times when visiting from Michigan. I was wowed the very first time. Food was outstanding and the entertainment trio preforming 40's style big band music was excellent. Nothing has topped that first experience. The food has been great, the entertainment has still been pretty good....until my most recent visit. First thing I noticed is they changed the location of the stage. Not sure why. And the band was totally different. The female singer wore very little clothing, all black. Not classy at all. The music was a mixed bag and not the classic early 1900's vibe that they've had it the past, that fit the whole restaurant vibe. The food was pretty good. Grilled cheese sandwich was huge, tomato soup was average. Spinach dip was good. The Edison fries are not the same

There is seating both inside and out side. The atmosphere is great and high end inside. The service was very good and the food was excellent. Many very good choices on the menu. We all chose very different things and they were all great. Some very cool and creative drinks.

The food as well as the service is simply amazing here. It was my boyfriend's birthday dinner and they even had a birthday card signed by the staff on the table for him and a little birthday treat after dinner. We got the special for that evening which was a stuff deboned chicken with green beans and mashed potatoes served family style. It was absolutely delicious!!!!!

★★★★★ 5.0 Andrew Cardosi · Nov 2025

Great food and service. We had the house salad, steak frites, trout and the pigs in a blanket. The cocktails are fantastic. Great happy hour deals.
