    Had a great dinner with the girls and as usual, Wes was an amazing server. Love some of the new additions to the menu, especially the crab noodles!

    Food and service very good. Circular tables a little awkward. Noise level almost uncomfortable!

    Went here recently and was annoyed we waited 20 minutes for our tables. There were lots of open tables but staff/service couldn’t keep up? Not sure. We were on time (earlier side by 5 min) for table as well. No offer for complimentary drink or anything. There was literally no one sitting at the table we were being sat at either. Food was decent but service at beginning left me a bad taste.

    The restaurant opened recently and we decided to try it for brunch. We mixed it up and shared a variety of dishes. These included the Hamachi Sashimi , Chili Wontons, Fish and Chips, Fried Chicken, and Duck Tacos. All were delicious, and each dish was distinctive. We loved them all. In addition, the staff were welcoming, friendly, and attentive. Special thanks to our server, Jose. We loved the overall vibe. Great location on Main Street directly above Blue Bottle. The parking lot is a real plus, as well.

    Food and mixed drinks are really great Tuna tartare, shrimp toast, and mushrooms were standouts on our night and looks like at least some of the menu changes regularly. It was a very busy Friday night that made it pretty noisy and feel like the place to be but could certainly still hear each other comfortably to hold conversation even at the bar. While the service was fantastic when we sat down, we had a long wait for our reservation. We booked for 7.45pm but didn’t get seated until 8.25pm. The host was kind and apologetic but we were initially told 20mins which was already poor management for a reservation and it then jumped to twice that :/ We were given a complementary drink once we sat down but it was disappointing to wait so much later than we booked and feel forced to buy drinks at the bar ahead of our meal. Hopefully that poor planning of the bookings was exceptional on the night we were there but definitely consider whether to go on a weekend if that’s a factor for you. All said, we would certainly go back and will also look forward to trying their brunch as our waitress Gabby and the very well crafted plates we tried made up for the disappointing start to the evening.

    Stellar experience! I had quite the evening at Edgemar. The service, and drinks were top shelf as well as the ambiance. Had an amazing time getting lost in conversation about how cute and immersive this spot is. Though it was a bit difficult to find, bring tucked away and all, they brought all the love and flavors one can expect from a hidden gem. If you come with high expectation you will leave oh so satisfied.
