| - Edwins is a really special place. If you don't know the backstory, do some research. It's definitely worth your time.
My boyfriend and I had such a wonderful time here. The space is very classy, but intimate and romantic. The main dining room is small, so I recommend making a rezo just in case. The ceilings are crazy high; there is a large window overlooking Shaker Square which lets in an incredible amount of light; white table clothes; beautiful china; and there is a cozy fireplace area where you can enjoy a drink.
The service was absolutely fantastic. Our server was Cynthia, but she was not the only one to wait on us. It was a group effort--everyone pitched in at every table to help out. Everyone was kind, respectful, and polite. It's obvious that everyone wants to be there, wants to learn, and enjoys what they are doing.
We started with a bowl of the lobster bisque. I've been really into soups lately, and I was pleased. Then we split a slice of the rabbit pie. The rabbit pie is not good for sharing as it is really tiny. We split it in half and I easily could have eaten my half in two or three bites. The rabbit pie was one of my favorite dishes of the night.
Next was the seafood sausage and the soft fried egg. The seafood sausage was good--my boyfriend really enjoyed it. I felt like the casing was a little overcooked though. The soft fried egg was okay. It wasn't amazing, but it wasn't horrible either. I would save your money and order something different.
For entrees, we had the scallops and the filet oscar. The scallops were one of my favorite dishes EVER. I couldn't get over how great they were. The scallops were served with purple potatoes and squash. A bite of all three was heaven. I really really really enjoyed this dish. I wish there were more scallops though as I only received three. My boyfriend has the filet oscar which had crab on top. My boyfriend loved this dish but I did not. To be fair though, when I took a bite it was getting cold so i guess I didn't get the full experience. The filet didn't seem juicy enough for me.
We originally ordered the souffle as our dessert. It was my first time having souffle. It was good, but I wouldn't go crazy over it. While waiting for our souffle, we saw the bananas foster lady preparing the bananas foster, which is prepared table side. If you are going to get a dessert, order the bananas foster!! Having it prepared table side is a really unique experience. I really enjoyed hearing her tell us about how it is prepared. And on top of that, it was delicious! Tastes similar to fried plantains.
5 stars all around.
