    Really bad. We went out to eat dinner after our dinner. Food came out cold. 25 minutes later the reheated food came out cold. We waited an hour for food we never ate. Fish was soaked in butter and Niçoise salad was made with canned tuna.

    Made a rez for the brassiere to try it out. Great service and the food was just right( no, not overly salted). The only downside is that as a table for two we were given the tiniest , most crowded table in the place.

    The ambiance was very comfortable and the food and service were excellent. We were meeting with old friends, and the staff was most accommodating and understanding in allowing our continued conversation. We were never rushed and were able to have a most enjoyable evening.

    Food and service were extremely good. Wait staff was always checking to make sure everything was ok or if we needed anything. I would heartily recommend this restaurant.

    Disappointed. My wife and I were looking forward to going to their new location, having been a regular at Shaker Square. It was less than stellar. First off, the music was WAY too loud. Secondly, the staff needs to take pride in their appearance. Our server looked like he had just rolled out of bed. My lobster roll tasted a little "off," which was a shame because I had never had a complaint about their food before. We had to basically track down our server to get our check at the end of our meal, and the place had only 3 other tables in it with a dozen other servers. Maybe it was because it was early in the night, but it was nowhere near the quality we were used to from Edwins. I doubt we will be back.

    Therese is a fabulous wait person. Service was intermittently slow. The chicken paillette was burnt on the bottom and the mashed potatoes separated from the butter.

    We were so excited to come to Edwins. The gentlemen when we arrived was great and the most helpful and when we left. You have to stop using so much SALT...many of our dishes were not editible and I sent them back. The chef in the back brought me another bowl of Lobster Bisque...but it was still too salty. My husband had short ribs and again they were loaded with salt. Let people salt their own items....I had to ask to have the Bisque taken off our bill. In addition, we could not understand a word our server was saying...we were also unsure exactly who was waiting on us since so many people were comng from differnt directions and it was sooo unorganized. The people on either side of us did not seem to have this problem. I ordered Club Soda and was charged twice for Club Soda???? WE WILL NOT BE COMING BACK...food was sooo disppointing except for the Bananas Foster!!!
