ah, Harlem! You never disappoint.
Loved this little cozy, warm, homey spot. Good food and good service.
My friend and I split equal parts of the Jerk Chicken & Waffles and the Shrimp & Parmesan Grits. I could've used a bit more flavor for my taste buds, but it was still good.
Came here on a Sunday for brunch and then on a Friday for dinner.
Ambiance: A little small but cute and simple. During brunch, the wait for a table of 4 was 30 minutes. During the dinner, there was no wait, but then again we got there at like 6:00PM. Crowd was mostly late 20s and 30s.
Food and drinks:
Brunch:I had an almond milk latte and it was strong and yummy. My friends had a mimosa and the hibiscus mimosa (which I tried and liked). The only negative thing is that they were each $10…come on, can we get a brunch discount?
I had the crab cakes and it was quite delish. A little spicy but not so much that you can't handle it. My friends had the waffles and egg Benedict and they liked their food. I did steal some of my friend's fries and they were extra yummy.
Dinner: For appetizers we had the Mezze plate and it was so fresh and yummy. For dinner, we had the special of the evening, a surf and turf dish. It took a while for the food to come; we thought they went out to the back to kill the cow. With that said, the steak tasted so fresh and the mashed potatoes were delicious. We finished with brownies and bread pudding for dessert, both good, but would have been perfect with a scoop of ice cream instead of whipped cream.
Service: Our hostess and waiter were all super friendly. No complaints here.
I'm so glad this place is walking distance from me.
I can see myself becoming a regular here.
Went on a Saturday night. The food was good but not great. I had sauteed shrimp with rice and BF had fish special. I i really liked the ambiance and decor. Would go back for drinks and maybe try their weekend brunch one day.
Solid week-long brunch. And brunch-plus at that: their main hits are the coconut curry chicken and the Cajun-spiced basa over salad. Nice level of heat, good mix of flavors. Also love the sorrel, very spicy ooh la la!
Another weekend foodie adventure while my son is in classes. Hubby and I Yelped for a brunch spot and drove to The Edge. We go here as soon as they opened so we had no wait for a table but I could definitely see there being a wait later in the day because the dining room isn't too big but they do have some breakfast bar seating in the middle and in front of one of their windows.
We started off with a couple coffees and I ordered a Hibiscus Mimosa which was good and tasted like sorrell in bellini form. Hubby had their "Rum Punch" and I use quotes because it didn't taste like the rum punch I grew up drinking. It was good but you expect it to be a certain way.
I had the Ackee & Saltfish w/Festival and Sautéed Kale in lieu of the Loo (callaloo). It was all seasoned very well but the price doesn't reflect the portion size. Any West Indian who orders this entrée will be severely disappointed, considering you can get twice as much in a serving of that price ($17) in a neighborhood hole in the wall and it would be just as authentic and reminiscent of yahd food. Anyhoo, it tasted good,let and the kale was seasoned to taste like callaloo which it did and I finished every bit, mostly because there wasn't that much on the plate to begin with. Hubby had the Waffle with Fresh Fruit and Rum-infused Whipped Cream. I kept stealing his whipped cream for my festival. They tasted great together.
All in all, everything was good. I like the vibe of the place and I would definitely go back but I'd probably get the Jerk Chicken and Waffles instead or the Avocado Mash on Toast w/Eggs and Salmon.
Came here to this cozy restaurant in Harlem this morning for brunch! I can't get over the location and the decor inside! Such a great neighborhood. Menu is small but I liked that they categorized the foods by country. I had the curry chicken sandwich, my other friends had the jerk chicken/waffles and shrimp/grits. The crowd is young and classy. The staff were friendly. It's a small place but on a Sunday you can still find seating quick. It does get a little loud here but not the obnoxious kind of loud, the fun loud haha! Will definitely be coming back!
The edge was sweet enough to let us hog a table for about 4 hours. We were ordering drinks the entire time, but I realize it was a long stay. However, when old friends get together you can't rush things.
The mimosas were exceptionally good. I don't know what they're using in the mimosas, but it was right up my ally.
I had a chai latte that I felt was a little small, and could have been steeped a bit longer.
For my entree, I ordered the shrimp and grits. The meal was fantastic. The grits were cheesy and delicious.
My friends ordered the white sangria, and they were a big hit.
I really wish they had a bottomless option during brunch.
After being forced to wake up to attend brunch with some friends we ended up at this small eatery in harlem. At first glance you would say " oh its small in there" and once you enter your you will say "wow it really is small in here".
The menu was rather basic. They broke all the foods down by country regions. I stuck to whst i know which was north america but i could not get that meal off the menu (damn you allergens) so i had to build my brunch menu from scratch.
My company said the mimosas were good and also the rum punch was excellent, i stuck to good old fashioned orange juice.
Overall it was tasty and i will go back to try some of the other regions they have.
