Dining at Edwins is always a delight! My shared dinner with two dear friends was no exception. It began with seating. My friend commented on how cold the night air was and if we could sit where it would be cozy. The host scanned the room of diners and decided, with a brief consultation, to seat us in the private dining area. We had the curtained room to ourselves, but service to our remote table could not have been more accommodating! In search of a wine, the chef, John, pulled himself from a busy kitchen to offer a single bottle remaining from an event he had hosted earlier this season. It was a superb Saint-Estèphe. So began a memorable meal that started with foie gras, perfectly seared, tender, and served with roasted apples and Calvados sauce. Sublime. The salad was a croquet of goat cheese with crisp fresh greens, and our three dinners were grilled rabbit, grouper, and seafood sausage in lemon butter wine sauce. Everyone was pleased with their choice. The food, wine, and conversation flowed with unobtrusive and impeccable service and a warm visit from the restaurant impresario himself, Brandon Crostowski. We were too full to try the desserts and were honoring our New Year's resolutions. We hope to return soon and maybe start with dessert?

Edwins Too is an absolute gem! The food is creative and delicious, the staff is warm and attentive, and the atmosphere is both inviting and refined. Plus, their mission to empower others makes dining here even more special. Highly recommend—can’t wait to go back!

Amazing food and service! We will definitely be going back. Best restaurant we have been to in Little Italy. Reminded me of all the delicious food we had on our last trip to Italy.

We just had the best family birthday dinner at Sasa! It was great for our whole extended family, everyone loved their food and the service was fantastic. I feel so lucky to have Sasa in our neighborhood!!

This place is really a hidden gem! Great vibe with moody decor, a unique and delicious Latin menu (not "Mexican" food), great drinks and a staff eager to please its customers. Can't wait to go back.
