The pictures are from a recent event they did to showcase Monkey Shoulder whisky. They also now offer charcuterie boards from Little Paris, a restaurant nearby. A nice addition! But here's what's really great about the Lounge: if you aren't sure what brand or type of liquor you might want to buy or try, ask for a flight. We wanted to explore various toed of gin and they poured us a flight of different brands. But more than that, they poured it for us straight up and with tonic so we could try then both ways. Then, since they are part of and connected to the liquor store, we could go next door and buy the gins we liked. Pretty cool and very convenient.

Cigar and spirt My friends and I have been looking for a…read morelounge that serves sprits and allows cigars. Though you cannot enjoy a cigar inside they have a nice covered area outside the lounge. Spirit availability was impressive for the size lounge. I was interested in Redbreast Irish Whiskey and they had 12, 15, and wow 21!!! The lounge inside was what I consider small, bar seating, and some table and comfortable chairs. The outside area was covered. Comfortable chairs with tables and ashtrays to handle about 25+/-. Two TV's. There are standing fans and heaters. There was no service to the outside area, so you picked-up your choice of spirit and got comfortable outside. We enjoyed our spirit and cigars with no one complaining about the smoke. It happened to be a very rainy night and the north area was a bit flooded, but no leaks from above. Pro Great selection of spirits. Cigar and I think cigarettes, evidence by butts in the ashtrays, are allowed outside. The inside lounge was very clean, as well as the two unisex bathrooms. Con The flooded area was unfortunate, but there was only three of us, and it didn't cause an issue. The Ashtrays had been mostly emptied, but not wiped down. Really not inviting to rest your cigar on a dirty ashtray. An easy wipe with a microfiber goes a long way. Not really a Con, but there was no Service outside on the Tuesday night we visited. Overall a nice experience for a dreary night. My friends and I will return, hopefully on a nicer evening. Note: If you don't bring your own cigar, the liquor store has a small selection available right next door.

Heard about this place on a previous trip to Tallahassee and had to check it out while visiting for…read moreour daughter's orientation. I had recently heard that this place is a Michelin notable and now I know why. Don't be fooled by the nondescript, gray exterior, the inside is adorable and cozy. Valet is complementary which is a nice touch. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Service is incredibly quick from the time you order to when you receive your meal. Food was absolutely delicious. Hubby and I ordered a few appetizers as well as the chefs tasting menu and it did not disappoint. The appetizers we chose were the charred octopus and the fire roasted oysters. Both were wonderful but the octopus was a standout. For the tasting menu, it changes daily and is 4 courses with a dessert course to round out the meal. Ours happened to include: Sausage w olive tapenade, Filet w tomato and veggie chow chow (so tasty), Duck tostada w avocado crema, Elk filet w hasselback potatoes and asparagus (show stopper), and Orange rice pudding w pistachio cookie crumble which was such a nice, light way to end the meal. One thing to note: they automatically add 18% gratuity to your bill which is split between all front of house and back of house staff. Anything you leave above this will go directly to your waiter. There is a card they leave when they drop off the bill that explains this more eloquently than I am but I found it to be unique that they openly discuss it instead of adding it to the bill with no notice or explanation.

The good: Great view…read moreFood portions are big Many drink selections The "not so good": Took way too long to be seated even though many tables were empty. Friendly waitress but she never refilled our water glasses and never offered condiments (salt/pepper/grated cheese for the pasta). My pasta dish was barely warm - I should have sent it back. Restaurants like this with high prices need to step up their game to justify these prices! Seems that Charlie Park caters to business people/politicians, etc., who are on expense accounts. Since I'm paying for dinner out of my pocket, I probably won't return.

**Review: Solid Steak Dinner at The Edison**…read more I had a pleasant dinner at The Edison recently and walked away satisfied, especially with the food. Service was just okay--nothing terrible, but the appetizers definitely took longer than expected to come out. That said, our server was genuinely good: friendly, knowledgeable, and checked on us at the right moments without being overbearing. The appetizers were worth the wait. Both the fried green tomatoes and the crab appetizer were excellent--fresh, flavorful, and nicely executed. For the main course, the steak was spot-on: tender, well-seasoned, and cooked exactly as ordered. The potatoes that came with it were also really good--creamy and tasty without being heavy. We ended the meal with the bread pudding, and it was one of the best parts of the night. It was done perfectly: warm, moist, and full of rich, comforting flavor that didn't feel overly sweet. All in all, The Edison delivers on the food front. If you're after a reliable steak with some standout starters and a strong dessert, it's a solid choice. Ambiance was good, love the historic building. I'll definitely be back for the steak and bread pudding. Recommended!

The food was well-prepared and flavorful, with a menu that balances classic favorites and creative options. Portions were satisfying, and presentation was thoughtful. The space has a lively yet comfortable vibe, making it a great place for both casual meals and social outings. Service was friendly and attentive, though it slowed a little during peak times. Overall, The Edison is a solid choice for good food, drinks, and ambiance. With slightly faster service during busy hours, it could easily earn a full five stars

Full outside patio, huge inside bar, decor that just screams class, and flavors that will have your taste buds slapping your brain to wake up! Our service was outstanding.. always on the spot and always a very kind soul. The food was expertly prepared and the flavors were pure artistry! From the bread... ohhhh the bread (moth watering in memory), to the main course (a delectable risotto)... to the works of art they call desert! Everything was perfect! The carrot cake was divine! The chocolate tree was a tiramisu and everything was edible... down to the rocks! The ball was a chocolate sphere with mouse inside that they melt open with hot chocolate... pure decadence! This is a must try if you're even close to the area. You will not regret it!! I promise you!

They have a dedicated bar area, but you can also more or less sit anywhere in the area and be part of it. Unfortunately, they were understaffed on my visit. There was a sizable Friday night crowd with guests in town for the football game, yet there seemed to be only one guy working the entire area. He was the bartender, cocktail server, food runner, busser, etc. I'm not 100% sure, but he may have been cooking as well--though we didn't order any food. Took a bit of time to order and receive a beer. We gave our room number to settle the bill towards the beginning. We asked for a check 3-5 times then after about 45 minutes, we simply gave up. There's a pool table along with a smattering of social "board" games. Things even spill over into the adjacent pool area. On Saturday, we walked through on our way out to dinner, and they had live music. Certainly a nice touch. With the proper staffing, this place could have run much smoother. For a hotel bar, it was just fine.
