Todays we went to Edison family diner for brunch! Pauly welcomed us in with a warm smile and a good joke. Kathy was our waitress and was the best waitress we have ever had. She was sweet, thoughtful and gave awesome recommendations. She also made such a great connection with our kids. We had the pancakes which were amazing, the corned beef hash which was the best we ever had. The quesadillas were incredible as well as the eggs Benedict over spinach pie! The best thing we had though was the lobster bisque! You will not be disappointed. A family owned friendly place where you will enjoy the service and the food!

The Country Fried Steak breakfast was amazing, the best I have ever had! The steak was so tender and outside so crispy and the gravy over it was unbelievable! And the plate was so FULL I had to take most home, that's ok I will finish it tonight. It was wonderful!

This is one of our brunch spots in the neighborhood. Love their soup - not salty at all. Love their coffee - I can drink it black even. We ordered the green omelette and a club sandwich. The sandwich was from the lunch section so we got to try the lentil soup. Everything was excellent. I loved their waffle fries. We felt bad for our waitress - she was the only one for the right wing and all tables were filled. She was running non-stop between tables for the whole duration we were there. We didn’t realize the ownership change until we heard other tables talking about how the restaurant was short staffed and their orders were messed up. The only down side is that the phone signal is very weak inside, but it is also kind of nice that we can be off our phones and focus on food and talking with our loved ones.

The food was amazing, prices are fair, and staff was super friendly. They made my day and truly appreciate it. Whenever I am in the area again I will come back and try their soups which look really good.

Unfortunately the place my son was supposed to take me for mother day changed the reservation time. So my son checked YELP and found this gem! Atmosphere was super awesome! They even gave all mother a free soup! Potato Leek delicious! We are going back soon
