    We were at the Edge Steakhouse for a celebration. 5 star review. Truly outstanding from the food to the service. Prime Ribeye, Wagu Tenderloin, broccolin,scallops, few drinks, chefs drinks smoked old fashion, chefs appetizer, and beef tar tar. The food was impeccable / no complaints. Service was top notch. It made you feel like you're the only person eating in the place.

    It appears to be an older restaurant with the bathrooms standing out. You are asked to throw your toilet paper in the trash. Not a fan of doing that. The inside is charming, though we are outside as it was a lovely day. I thought I didn’t like Brussels sprouts and the ones I had with my tasty duck have forever changed my mind. If you’ve had macarons in Paris, skip those; our apple tart was flaky and not too sweet. We’re glad we went, but not enough to return.
