Don't Just Wish Someone A Good Holiday, Give Them One With Chili's.
Loading...
I had my first Cincinnati night experience at Edward's last night. Before which I had never heard of skyline chili, Montgomery Inn Ribs OR Graeter's Ice Cream! Come on!!! I grew up on the West Coast.
Before my coworker could finish her description of these three Cincy staples, I had already called my gym to reschedule my training session so I could join in on the feast. How could I miss such a treat flown in once a month ONLY???
I ordered the 3 Way ($11.50) a culinary masterpiece of skyline chili poured over a heaping pile of spaghetti then completely covered in shredded cheddar cheese...Love at first slurpy bite. You are whisked away to a land of football tailgate parties and family reunions with brisk Fall temperatures.
Other Cincy options include:
The 4-way (skyline chili, spaghetti, cheese and beans)
The 5-way (above plus onion)
Coneys $3 (skyline chilled poured over a hot dog with mustard and onions)
Cheese coney $4 (above with a mound of cheddar on top)
Monterey Inn Ribs
Larosa Pizza
AND OF COURSE...Graeter's Ice Cream.
The next Cincinnati night is October 26th...and you know I'll be back to try to some of the other skyline treats from the Midwest.
Great food, generally fantastic and friendly service. Have been here dozens of times, everything from groups of friends, one on ones - I even brought my 6 year old niece to Edwards for a Sunday afternoon lunch as I knew the staff and the kids' menu would be a good fit. I also like that the food is hearty and traditional, yet there are several decent vegetarian options. In this, Edwards reminds me of another long time favorite of mine, Lucky Strike.
Edward's reminds me of a no-frills diner that serves American food at moderate-expensive prices. Still, Edward's has stable clientele - every time I walk by it, the place is always bustling about. Many were dining al fresco in the summer heat, but we chose to bring ourselves indoors, where it was slightly cooler.
Food is good, but then again, I'd expect that, given a steak sandwich was priced at $15. The meat was cooked medium-well done, just the way I like it, and the fries were hot and crisp. While the food is hearty and unassuming, the prices are not for the layman. I'd recommend Edward's as a great choice for casual dining, but I'd only say it's for those who can afford to burn an average of $25 per day for a midday meal (sans wine). I haven't had dinner here, and I would come back, IF I were trekking about in the area late at night.
I wish I could give it 3.5, but I can't, so I'm going low instead of high. Friendly staff, and the turkey burger I had was pretty awesome, as were the fries. I dunno though, 70 bucks for dinner on a Tuesday made me feel like an asshole.
It was good food, and not that outta wack for Tribeca, honestly. Nothing was so spectacular that it gets anything more than OK, but I'd go back there, if my parents were in town or something, and they're paying.
Thank you smiley waitress! You were extremely pleasant the whole meal and brought me everything I needed! My coffee was always refilled and I didn't have to wait 2 years for the check.
I was here for lunch and the place was running very efficiently. No one seemed hurried, but they were serving a lot of people. It was one of those things where the hostess was singing to herself but still getting her job done.
This seemed like a great place for a casual meal. There was a family with some small children and no one seemed to be annoyed. Although I believe this is technically a "diner", it is not all shiny and metal. Rather, it has old wood and bottles.
It's not terribly special, but all in all, I had a nice time. The service was personable and pleasant, the rigatoni in sausages and tomato cream sauce was scrumptious, the bar was big and beautiful, and everything was priced within reason.
On the down side, the soundtrack was a tad tacky, there wasn't much mind paid to interior decor (a crime in trendy Tribeca!), and the menu wasn't really inventive or eclectic.
Average restaurant with below average service.
After reading other reviews I thought the service surely couldn't be that horrid but last night it certainly was. It seems like a disorganized rabble. They do attempt to make sure you are taken care of at least upon initial seating, but it's all downhill from there.
Towards the end of the meal we tried to find our waitress to pay for the check but apparently she decided that it was more important for her to sit at the bar, enjoy a drink and talk with some guy. We were very perplexed.
I will also reiterate what some other posters said - the fries are pretty good and come in ample supply with whatever you order. Outside of that not much else to say about this one...
Very average american food. Portions for brunch and sandwiches are gigantic and unless you're 300 lbs totally unnecessary.
Salads, beers and wines are all decent
I'd say the best part of edwards is their outdoor seating in the summer.
Yawn. Very very mediocre brunch spot in Tribeca. Nothing to write home about.
Edward's is what I would call your average, reasonably-priced restaurant in Tribeca. It doesn't have anything (food, décor, staff) that makes it stand out in particular. If this was in Jackson Heights, the residents would be all over it, but obviously, in Jackson Heights it would have the advantage of being, dare I say, "gentrifical." (I just used this word in a totally novel way- if it goes viral, you heard it here first!) Like the other reviewers have noted, the food is alright- good enough that if Petite Abeille next door is full, you're not going to be devastated with this as a second choice. They can accommodate a larger group in the back too, so if you've got a contingency of office buddies with you, this is probably the better choice. Get the bacon-filled BBQ chicken sandwich on buttered toast if they offer it as a special- it's artery-clogging delicious.
Came here for a late dinner on a Friday night. Overpriced and average American fare. I had the salmon with risotto, which was reasonably portioned & kind of salty, but I had it with a glass of sancerre and that was good. Good wine usually makes mediocre food taste better (or at the very least, it improves the quality of the dining experience). And it makes me feel classy ;)
I may come back for brunch when the weather warms up to see what makes the outdoor seating so special.
The hot chocolate's good, the french toast fair, and it's cheap for what you get.
Nice place to score a hasty, carb-heavy hangover breakfast.
I have been here twice, once for brunch and once for dinner. The food was average. Nothing amazing. They do have great fries but I also had the veggie burger and I REALLY didn't like it.
The mass amounts of fries were the only reason I didn't leave hungry.
So you might be thinking..what is getting this place 3 stars? Well I sat right next to Chris March from season 4 of project runway! So that made me happy.
Not sure if we caught our waitress on a bad day, but when I attended this Tribeca eatery for brunch we encountered one of the most careless and unreceptive waitress we have ever encountered. I actually had to approach the bar manager to request someone to come over to take our brunch selections after we had already ordered drinks from our server. The service aside, the food was average, however was not worth the price and lack of service to ever frequent again.
I came here with a friend for brunch, after checking out the reviews for a brunch joint around the TriBeCa / Little Italy neighborhoods. I enjoyed the Scrambled Eggs Tostadas + Rancheros sauce (spicy!), an interesting combo of eggs scrambled with tortilla chips. A Mexican spin on "Matzah brie," for the Jews out there who know what I'm talking about. My friend had a standard omelette. Both were good, but nothing amazing. Apart from my $3 shot glass of OJ, both entrees were a good value, and I recall that Mimosas and Bloody Marys are $5 with any brunch entree. Service was friendly and efficient as it should be, but again, nothing spectacular.
I would come back if I wanted a quick bite in the area - breakfast, lunch or dinner, but I think I'll continue to explore better brunches across the city.
This place was exactly what I was looking for - a good breakfast after a night of over indulgence. Almost all of their breakfast dishes come with fries - a delicious omlette and fries to help my hungover stomach was perfect!
I like the decor - it's kind of old-school diner-ish and the prices were very reasonable - especially for Tribeca - unfortunately that is probably what attracted the several families with their screaming kids which did not help my hangover at all.
Service could definitely be better (or also much worse) but the food came out really quickly - so all in all I would definitely go back and just hope to miss the kiddie rush.
Nice menu, decent preparation. But the drinks were weak and the service was barely there. The waitress on duty was far more interested in advancing her acting career with the table that told her they were with a show than any of us mundane customers.
I'd give them another chance... if this was Omaha and there weren't many other options.
A story of a drunkie bartender
Perhaps his mother didn't pay attention to him when he was little
Perhaps he was on period
Or perhaps he was simply dunkie
In any case, he put up a unforgettable show last night at 3AM
He lit a match every 2 seconds and threw it at customers
As he walked to the bathroom, he ran into a stool and laid on the floor for a while
For some reason, his voice was extraordinary loud
by 4AM, he slept on the floor behind the bar with his legs up on the counter
I knew it was then time to head out
One word for this place -- cheers!
Eh, this is place is mediocre at best. I went here with a friend for a Saturday brunch over the summer. The place was packed with neighborhood families and their kids. This is definitely not the type of place to have a relaxing and relatively quiet Saturday brunch. The cacophony of whining kids and their parents subsequently trying to get them to behave can be grating. The food itself is decent and it's only two minutes away from me, but those are the only two bright spots. Since there are many other better brunch spots in the neighborhood, I don't plan on going back here anytime soon.
A fine diner.
It's an OK restaurant, I totally agree with most of the comments here - in summary, it's a very average American food restaurant with OK service and good people watching outdoor seating in the summer. I would recommend you to go next door, Petite Abeille for better food at similar price.
Petite Abeille is next door and if I had to choose between the two, I'd always go for Abeille, unless I had a large party. Edwards is very good, however. The booths and tables are spacious, able to accomidate families and small groups. The menu is almost diner-ish but with more interesting ingredients and served up in a delightful presentation. I also recommend stopping in for a drink. The bartenders are very friendly, often offering up freebies between cocktail purchases. Last time I was there, the bartender offered my guy and I a glass of a new brand of vodka in a sweet juice mix. Very good, indeed!
Oh, the burgers, sandwiches and hearty salads are all among my favorites.
5 of my co-workers and I decided to do our "holiday dinner" post-holidays this year, since we were all so crazed during the season and couldn't mutually pick a night that worked. So last night, at the recommendation of one of my colleagues who is a Tribeca resident, we sought refuge from the drizzly night in the warmly lit Edwards on Broadway. A friendly staff greeted us and helped us with our coats, as we slid into our table in the back section. The atmosphere is truly cozy, and NOT in the new york real estate sense which usually signifies uncomfortably small space and sitting on top of your neighbors. Edwards is plenty spacious, and cozy in that the volume, temperature, lighting, food, staff...EVERYTHING, truly leaves you with a feeling of comfort, intimacy, and content. I dug the atmosphere big time.
The menu is standard french-american bistro, prices are pretty decent for the neighborhood, and the wine selection is pretty good too. we went with a bottle of rioja for $33 that was excellent. Our server was friendly enough, but did tend to disappear at certain times. however our food came out pretty quickly, and everyone enjoyed their meals.
For appetizers, we split a modest sized appetizer of fried calimari which came with a spicy marinara and a garlicky aioli for dipping. one of us had the french onion soup, which looked and smelled great.
For entrees, I had the penne-chicken with green beans and parmesan sauce. Everything about this dish was perfect EXCEPT for the chicken - it was a bit dried out and too blackened. but the green beans were blanched perfectly, the sauce was delicious, and the penne was perfectly al dente. the rest of my companions all ordered fish (tuna, salmon, shrimp) - all got rave reviews. For dessert i went with the blueberry bread pudding, which was tasty, but missed in terms of consistency of what bread pudding should be. it was more akin to bread than pudding.
i would definitely recommend edwards as an overall dining experience in the tribeca neighborhood. i look forward to trying their brunch.
This place is okay. The Tribeca Cobb Salad is my favorite lunch item on the menu. Your typical bistro with some red and white checkered tables outside along the sidewalk. It attracts locals and construction workers alike. Wine bottles fill the walls all the way up to the ceiling - four stars for atmosphere. I was content reading outside by myself but why the 'tude from the waitress? She kind of made me sad.
This can be a five star restaurant if they worked on the food a little. I went there for brunch earlier and was pretty pleased with the experience. Service is second to none. In fact I'd say service is five stars for the attention the waiters and maire'd give you without any patronizing or condescending. The interior is spacious, airy and quite. Best of all they have the NY papers lying on the bar table for suave single folk like myelf to read while brunch is being prepared.
It's the food which needs some work. Not much, simple stuff really. I ordered a crab cake to start, hanger steak with eggs and a croissant,and an iced coffee. The crab cake is pretty good. Crab to "filler" ratio seems high, it's nicely seasoned and lightly fried. No tarter sauce is needed. However, crab cakes should be hot throughout the cake. They should not have a cool bottom. My hanger steak was cooked rare as asked but was burnt on the sides. It was a paradox because while the inside meat tasted very good the burnt sides gave an unwanted metallic taste. The eggs were cooked perfectly for sunnyside. The croissant was a paradox as well. It has a very rich and buttery dough and a nice outer crisp but was served cool. Iced coffee tastes average. Now, even though there seems to be negatives it wasn't that bad. Like I say if the chef/cooks work on the presentation a tad and managment doesn't fire any of the wait staff (which gets one extra star alone) they'd have a five star rating.
I'm going back when they have Cincinnati night.
After cruising the Tribeca scene for a brunch place for a bit--we decided on Edwards. The outdoor tables were out, but me being the one in a skirt on a 45* weather day opted for the inside. The host as well as our server were really nice, friendly, and that perfect detached humor where you like them, but they're not your new BFF hanging all over your table.
$5 mimosas came with any entree, but I stuck with water while my other dining companions went for the OJ. For food I chose the Huevos Rancheros (which, I'm coming to believe...must be tried at each new brunch location). They were quite delicious I must say. Yes, quite delicious. The french toast was also more than up to par. My roommate ordered the "salmon plate" which was salmon, cream cheese, and a bagel. Little skimpy on the salmon but the dish came with capers. Whaaa?!?! Little gourmet never hurt anyone! Good times, good food, quick service. Two thumbs up!
went there for dinner on friday and had a few not great things happen:
1. when i told the waitress that i was a vegetarian and had a few questions about the menu, after the 1st question she placed her hand down on the table in a very "oh shit lady just fucking order" kind of way. she shifted her weight and threw her hip out towards me and everything. very rude.
2. during the meal a man walked through the restaurant who appeared to be a plumber, but was perhaps an exterminator. gross.
i had the salad nicoise with the tuna on the side for my bf, it was heavy on the dressing; and he had an omelette with mashies, which was good.
it's cute inside but i could not handle the attitude.
I'm not sure how or why, but there's always one or two hotties sitting at the bar. Any time of day - there they are, sitting there, eating a salad or sipping white wine. It's strange - they're not always the same people either. It's like those seats are reserved for professional females in their 20's who are hot. It's worth going just to see them.
Oh yeah, the food is decent also.
Great for breakfast. Good service. Cute atmosphere. Great brunch on the weekend! Check it out.
Any place that has a Cincinnati night gets 5 stars in my yelp review. Skyline Chili and Grater's ice cream are Cincinnati's best known exports (well, after me.) For all you Boston Red Sox fans, a little known fact is that the Kevin Youkilis played college ball at Univ. of Cincinnati and this place is owned by his uncle.
The Establishment formerly known as The Odeon Bar could very well be called Cheers' NY Extension. Every time I go there I see the same friendly faces and the same guy behind the bar and oddly enough, he thinks he knows my name. The drinks always arrive at a dizzying pace and the bar food is great. I suggest you start with the hot dogs. They have a Tuesday night special called artists night which is perfect for me seeing as how I'm usually coming from my finger painting class. If you do make it down, don't be surprised if you get some love and affection from the bartender and the Jack Russell terrier that has a permanent place at the bar.
Average place for brunch, and slightly above average for dinner, as a inexpensive value for the neighborhood. Try the salad with the poached egg and bacon - so yummy.
The real treat is Edward's Cincinnati Night, once a month. Even if you're not from Cincinnati and therefore unaware of the glory of Skyline chili and Graeters ice cream, it's time you learned. And if you are from Cincinnati, it's always a fun little reunion. Everything else at Edward's is delicious and I'd recommend stopping by if you're in Tribeca, but I'm usually only up for the trek on Cincinnati night.
It has one of the friendliest staff in Tribeca, we just stopped for a quick bite and got a table on their sunny terrace. I had the blue cheese burger and fries, the fries were a bit too dark for me but the burger was perfect. My friend had a very tasty and fresh salad with a poached egg. The service was extremely quick and friendly and the prices are reasonable. Edwar's is a great option in Tribeca, roomy interior with the feel of a French brasserie without the noise.

Been There, Done That. Places range from mildly…
Some may disagree that these places are overrated…
