About this restaurant

Romantic
Innovative
Good for special occasions

After making a significant impact on our community, we are bidding farewell to Edge, marking the transition to a new era under the stewardship of a new visionary ownership team. This strategic move responds to the evolving landscape of the restaurant industry, particularly influenced by the lasting effects of the pandemic on community dining habits.

The forthcoming ownership team envisions a transformative dining experience that transcends special occasions, making quality meals accessible to a broader spectrum of our community for everyday dining. As Edge gracefully concludes its chapter, we eagerly anticipate the emergence of Fusion 45 - January 30, 2024.

This was just overall a disappointing experience. My reservation was for 12Bar and I verified 12Bar, however I got there and they didn’t have me for 12Bar but for Edge. The person handling it made me feel like I did something wrong and I had to pull up my verification messages to prove I had confirmed. They fit us in however the food we ordered came out cold and it seemed it took forever to get our food. Drinks were good. Entertainment that was booked was extremely lack luster for NYE. Our reservation was at 8pm and we left around 10pm when originally our plan was to ring in the new year there. For the pricing this was just a poor experience all around.

We had not been to The Edge for over a year, and were delighted at the menu, service and vibe in the room. The minimalist style of the decor is not our favorite, but it works here.

Bad planning and execution of a New Year’s Eve evening celebration. 6:00pm dinner reservation- upon arrival informed our table was only available for 2 hours. Planned an evening of Drinks, Dinner, Drinks, Live music ring in 2024. No table no party for us. A wasted Nee Years Eve plan made a week earlier- no other venue was available last minute. We wasted $95.00 to be disappointed and ending up walking Prospect Ave in 30 degree weather looking for a place.

We went to Edge before attending a comedy show. The lamb was the best I’ve ever had and I have had some really wonderful lamb. The pricing was reasonable for what you get and the ambiance is really nice. It’s not a huge place so it wasn’t loud and the cocktails were very good. Service was good but the food took a little longer than anticipated so make sure you have time to enjoy your meal. We will definitely be back!

We hadn’t been in a long time and were very pleased. Our food was excellent. The Caesar salad had a very light, understated dressing; nice light touch with a hint of anchovy flavor. The sea bass was outstanding, perfectly cooked, very moist complemented by a nice sauce on a bed of saffron rice. The cheesecake desert was a perfect ending. Very good wine list.

I’m not sure this restaurant is going to make a comeback. The food is not nearly as good as under the prior chef. We had Cacio e Pepe that had too much pecorino cheese, making it very salty. How do you screw up such a simple dish? We also had the roasted chicken which was just ok. Very little seasoning. Served with broccoli that was cooked but cold when served. On the positive side, they did have a small but nice wine list. Our server, David, was very nice, but he was the only server, was seating people, and bartending. I don’t think we will be returning any time soon.
