We chose Edison Roadhouse for our group of six--tables for two or four are put together to…read moreaccommodate groups. Not busy on a Monday nite in September. Clientele is mostly couples and young families with children. Friendly service.
This is an American-themed bar and grill restaurant--fixtures, dishes, music etc. in every way EXCEPT when it comes to ordering food grilled to your preference. So my medium-rare burger arrived their way--medium-well. To the credit of Edison, we were informed in advance that food will not and cannot be cooked to our preference since cooked ahead of time.
A Lesson in Culture: We were informed by our waitress that the Dutch consider it impolite to make a request how to cook your food. We were certainly polite in our request and were politely told 'not going to happen.'
Fried pickles was fun appetizer. Salsa with chips appetizer was as mild as ketchup.
Burgers can be ordered in various sizes. I ordered XL and it was a full meal (see pic).
Every item is à la carte...fries, side salad, even ketchup are additional. A thimble-size serving of ketchup is additional cost. I'm not going to get used to that local custom.
Grolsch is the house brewski on tap. 4.75 € for 0.5 L. I prefer a hoppier Heineken, but Grolsch is also good. Plus good assortment of bottled beers including Belgium beers.
Modest suggestion: The owners of Edison Grill should spend a couple of weeks in the USA and visit Shake Shack, Five Guys Burgers & Fries, and Smashburger for the best ideas in a quality burger operation.
