Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
The Edison dazzles with a "cool atmosphere" and "magnificent" theming, complemented by live music. Guests rave about "delicious" grilled cheese and inventive mocktails. While some note service hiccups, the overall vibe and entertainment make it a "fun" dining experience. Ideal for those seeking a lively night out at Disney Springs.

    What a great restaurant. When we were first seated we were put at a table near where a live band was playing. I asked to be moved to a quieter area so i would be able to enjoy dinner conversation. This was promptly and courteously undertaken. We were met by Jenna who was an outstanding server. She was efficient, friendly and very accommodating. The meal was great and the desserts were even better. I was able to hear the band and still easily have a conversation without yelling. A great experience and a place I will go back to again.

    Good food. Cool atmosphere. Server was spread too thin. Not his fault. We also waited quite a bit, but again the food was good enough to be worth it. Best place we’ve been to at Disney Springs!

    The hostess was about 70 and was rude as soon as I was sent downstairs She asked me a question and then started screaming that she couldn’t hear me but I hadn’t even said anything. My fiancé asked to sit at a different one in the middle of the floor , she was rude and said no but when the waiter came over he was ok with it and she mentioned to him as we moved that if he allowed us to move, then he would have to serve us. Which he didn’t, with someone equally as rude, came over to take our order and kept shooting death glare at us for asking questions or taking more than a few seconds to answer. The food came out and it was mediocre at best. My grilled cheese was warm. My fiancé‘s hamburger looked as though it was reheated he asked for extra cheese and they cut a piece of cheese in half and placed it on top. I received gift card to patina restaurant group and I am 0 for 3 as he cracked his crown an a random looking rock at Morimoto’s restaurant and Marie and Enzo’s have us non stop runs

    We’ve wanted to try The Edison for years and it didn’t disappoint. The ambiance and theming were magnificent, only outdone by our sweet server Sabrina and the incredible musicians. The mocktails are fantastic as was the clothesline bacon and grilled cheese. My only warning is that make sure you’re hungry for the grilled cheese, as it’s massive!
