    We had a really nice, casual dinner. The server was by herself in a busy dining room but managed to keep everyone happy, including the party of 12! I had the Beetroot Pinot which was good, hubby had a beer. He started with the Caesar which had plenty of anchovies (special request). The salad was good, if a little small for $15. I had the Tahoe Buddha Bowl with salmon which was outstanding. Hubby had the tacos. They were really good but only two. Enough with a salad. We will absolutely be back!

    We weren’t impressed when we were here during Covid but we decided to give it another try n we were very pleased with the new menu. I had the braised beef short ribs n my bf had the beef Wellington. We had the octopus for our appetizer n it was delicious. We received the sticky toffee pudding for dessert n it was delicious also. I would go back n try the other foods on the menu. I give it five stars because they deserved it.

    Edgewood at Christmastime was wonderful! We ate a delicious meal that was reasonably priced - and had great service. So fun to walk the grounds after and indulge in the numerous fireplaces. Highly recommend the bistro for any meal of the day!

    We had reservations for 8pm however showed up half an hour early. The host was super nice and was able to seat us even though it was obviously super busy on Thanksgiving. The waitress was on top of everything! Even got us two rolls heated and warmed up for us! The ambiance of the restaurant was romantic with good mood lightning. The only negative item I would have to mention is the two restrooms were super busy and there was a line of 4 people who had to wait over 10 minutes for the people in the restrooms to open up. Overall, I would definitely return to this restaurant for lunch or dinner!!!

    Great experience! Food was good. A ham or prime rib option would have been great too, but the sides and soup were spectacular. The hors d' oeuvres were a little lackluster though. But great environment and service. Very family friendly.
