    Mussels
    Matthew D.

    We have driven by so many times and decided today's the day. Everything was absolutely amazing, including the service. Definitely look forward to going back. The mussels, were amazing, Brussels were crispy, the mozz was probably my favorite. We can't wait to try some entrees next time!

    BBQ Brisket on a Ciabatta Roll
    Joseph S.

    The Edison Grill. An Edison namesake branded lunch and dinner spot in Harwington. From the logo to the rug to the signage, it commits to the theme. When you walk in, you are delighted with Red/Black decor and various "vintage" looking signage across the restaurant. The pickup window (maybe added during COVID) is cleverly placed in the waiting room/entrance, where you can also sit to wait for seating. This place gives you an experience visually. So how does the food stack up? Great, actually. I got the BBQ Brisket from the Handhelds section, and my wife ordered the wings from the Starters. Both were delicious. The BBQ brisket comes on a Ciabatta Roll with a pickle and a choice of side. I chose the SLAW! But what a slaw it was. The slaw that I got was oddly sweet, not at all what I was expecting, but ladies and gentlemen, a pleasant surprise indeed. I came, I slaw, I conquered. That's how it goes, right? We also ordered the POT-CHOS off the menu. Yes, kettle baked potato chips topped with Nacho ingredients. Jalapeños on the side for the Mrs. So what's the verdict? Good. Not great. Could have been more cheese. It had bagged lettuce sprinkled on it but would have preferred shredded for easier nacho pickup. And although it says it on the menu (I know), the beer cheese/nacho cheese didn't work for me personally. It gave me ballpark vibes. Yes, to each is own. The two hits and the one miss on the food would of still giving me almost 5 star vibes here as I dig the themed restaurants. I have to imagine that some of the other menu items that I almost chose were easy answers for a 2nd visit (if I'm in the area). I'm giving a slight knock to the rating instead because we were charged for a raspberry ice tea refill after confirming that it was free refills and bringing me the refill before realizing they were mistaken. We all make mistakes, and besides that the service was great. And I'm sure next time the visit will be great and the cool/unique Edison's Grill will sway me to a 5. I would recommend this to anyone on their way through Harwington. It's a great lunch spot and the rest of the menu looks great. I'm sure next time I'm in it will sway me over to a 5.

    In Litchfield county, and in need of a good burger....props to Yelp Elite, Tricia B, for recommending the Edison Grill. Everything was top shelf, from the service, to the decor, the ambience, the vibe, the food, even the men's room (more on that later). Cordial Katie greeted and seated me, and brought menus. For food, I opted for a mushroom burger, 8 ozs of Angus pure delectable delight. Cooked to perfection, each charbroiled bite reaching a different note - crimini mushrooms, carmelized onions, "greens" and cheddar. And the hint of horseradish gave everything a really good pop. Fries were nice and crispy, just how I ordered. Now, back to the men's room. One of the coolest and cleanest in any restaurant / pub I've ever been in. Real (and healthy) plants, formidable flush, nicely tiled floors, art decor, etc, etc. Props to Katie (and to Tricia B). 5 star

    The overall atmosphere was comfortable. The bbq brisket sandwich was delicious and we got it with their hand cut kettle chips. We added grilled chicken to the Edison Grill Salad and it was also very tasty. The service was very good, everyone was friendly and attentive. The decor is very interesting, lots of Thomas Edison era memorabilia. Definitely recommended!

    Said I wouldn't be back to The Edison Grill again, but I had a GC from the Holidays, so we decided to use it this morning for breakfast. I ordered a sausage & Pepper Jack cheese omelet, and my wife went with a Special, the Banana Bread French Toast. Meals came out after a short wait. My omelet was good -- fluffy & filling. Home fries were red bliss potatoes -- a very nice change of pace from most standard breakfast potatoes. Wife's Banana Bread French Toast was excellent -- extremely tasty ! Coffee was also very good. Service was stellar -- Chrissy was very friendly & attentive. All in all, a much better experience to The Edison Grill than our previous visit a year ago. We'll definitely put them back in the rotation of usual places in the Torrington area.

    Very hidden gem that's worth everything. The inside is so cool, clean and awesome decor! We decided to get the margarita flights, which at some places can be weak but these were strong and flavorful! Absolutely worth it to get the flight! I'm sure the mule flight is awesome too! The service was excellent and quick! The food was great portion and so delicious! This is a great place for a date, with great trails near by! We will be back!

    Classic French Dip
    Sarah C.

    Another day out and we chose the Edison Grill I was hoping for another great experience and I wasn't disappointed, I choose the classic French dip with American Cheese and onions which cost $2 each added on, the Other half had a BBQ Cheese burger with Bacon, now it has been a long time since I moaned over some food and I definitely moaned over the French dip it was that delicious I only ate half of it because I was already getting full, he liked his Burger. I just wish we had some more fries, the coconut cake was absolutely amazing we had to split it because there was no way I could of ate all that by myself. The Service was absolutely great the lady was very upbeat and on top of everything checking in to see if we needed anything else, the inside of the place is always so welcoming not so dark like other places. Each time we come here it is getting better and better.

    Chocolate Peppermint Bark Martini. A Christmas delight!

First visit to the O Joe's North location - understanding I/we love the original. It exceeded every possible expectation. Food is terrific - has the same standard as Watertown, but our wings were cooked even better. Fresh, hot, crispy, juicy. Definitely the best Ordinary Joe's wings we've had (and we have a lot of them, often). The food options are clearly rooted in the original concept. However, there are some more/different options here. Everything looked and smelled fantastic. I look forward to investigating further. Our server, Vanessa, earned 25 stars on her own. She was attentive, personable, yet worked quickly and accurately - manning a full bar and dining room simultaneously - while making us feel like we were the only ones in the joint. Manager/(Owner?) Paul was terrific as well. Stepped in to ensure all tables had what they needed, were clean, and everyone happy. It was truly noticeable that customer service is a priority for the team. Building is new/redone/beautiful. Similar, iconic O Joe's feel and decorating - yes, the gridiron is painted on the ceiling. Just a great space. Great vibe. Eat-off-the-floor clean. Simply can't wait to go back. And, again, I am so lucky to have proximity to both locations. **Just one note for families who may go with children or teenage boys (like me)... The service is so great, no one at the table will have an empty glass for long... that's a really positive thing. But, fair warning, soft drink refills are NOT free (nor should they be, frankly). However, with an 18 and 16 yr old in my party...those Cokes accumulate quickly.

I have to say that the fish and chips are the best I have ever tasted. Crispy fish outside and tender inside... also, the fries were SO good! Crispy and seasoned just right...

For a second, I honestly thought he was just a friendly guy drinking a beer in the lot, being helpful. Nope he's the owner, and yes, he sets the tone immediately. Inside, the bar was big, comfy, and had that "you're one of us now" vibe. The atmosphere? Awesome. The food? Even better. And the people? REAL. Refreshingly real. Amy was our waitress and we absolutely adored her. My husband is a wise-ass (he thinks it's charming), and she gave it right back to him without missing a beat. My kind of woman. We started with the shrimp cocktail--delish. Caesar salad--yummy. But the star of the night? The prime rib, sitting proudly over garlic mashed potatoes. I still think about it. Honestly, I may have dreams about it. We live in Westport where restaurants are gorgeous... and often crazy expensive and just a tad snotty. The Store felt like we were dining with friends we actually liked. We even got to meet Roger's wife, Dena, who is an absolute gem. She told us how the restaurant got its name a regular at her old place would always tell his wife he was "heading to the store" when he was really heading to the bar. Iconic. I love her already. Of course, I bought a sweatshirt. (I'm a dirty martini girl; I needed merch.) We were headed to the Warner to see a comedian, but honestly, dinner was the warm-up act and it hit just as hard. It's about an hour from Westport--but worth every mile. We're already planning our next ride up to Torrington. This place is a blast!

I love that you get unlimited refills on coffee ($2), which was actually quite decent by diner standards. Where else can you find that nowadays?! Eggs were well prepared and fluffy across the board. I loved that my veggie omelet ($8.75) came generously filled with sauteed mushrooms, sweet peppers, and onions. It came with toast and a side of either fruit or home fries. The multigrain, which our server disclosed was from a bakery in NY, was fresh, well slathered with butter, and far better than it had to be as a non-headline component of the meal. Home fries were beautifully seasoned, though I do prefer mine a little more browned. Fruit salad on our visit included a slice of melon, a few grapes and a slice of orange. Our eight year old got a children's meal with one egg, home fries, toast and juice ($4.50). She enjoyed her fluffy scrambled eggs, which she ate sandwiched between two halves of a generously buttered English muffin. My only nitpick: You could taste a touch of margarine in the eggs, which I personally detest. Still, the food was head and shoulders better than (and half as expensive as) anything you can find at Mohawk Mountain, where we are usually resigned to grub. We are so, so thrilled to find this sweet little place a hop and a skip away from the mountain. It's a perfect place to refuel after early morning ski practice!
