    Fantastic experience at The Edison as usual. Love the live music and the overall ambiance of the dining experience. Great food- reasonable prices for the size and quality of the dishes we ordered.

    The short rib was good and other dinners were fine. But the donuts which are gluten free and not advertised as such were NOT good. If you don’t mind gf pastries then I’d say it’s a decent option. But as soon as I tasted one I could tell there was something wrong with them. They did NOT taste like real donuts.

    Incredible dining and entertainment experience! Brittany took exceptional care of us. Music was so good, we didn’t want leave. Brittany suggested some apps and drinks, she nailed it. Dinner was fantastic! Look forward to making this a must do every visit!

    The food was decent. My burger although I requested well done was slightly overcooked and the plate arrived lukewarm. Kids' grilled cheese had an abundant amount of butter on it to where we had to pat it off. Service was great!! Thank you to our server Renee for an amazing time and for making special drinks for my kids.

    Should put the Edison sauce on the side, some guests didn’t like it. Black n white cartoons could be scary for children. Food was not hot.

    Hostess didn't want to seat us where we asked in an empty place -- the live music was cancelled and took waiter 10 min to get to us when there were 10 people there. Very disappointed

    I love this place! We had a table of 6 and everyone was happy. I think the short ribs were the best! Apps… spinach dip and bacon and the pork pies were good too… just put them in order. lol we got the Strawberry fields (?) punch bowl and it was amazing. We couldn’t finish and our waitress gave us to-go cups so we couldn’t walk around Disney Springs. BTW/the enterprise was great too. We’ll be back!
