    My dining companion and I recently visited Olean's Café. This restaurant location has been here…read morefor what seems like forever. Adams Street is a quiet street on this particular Saturday morning around 9:15 am. But inside the restaurant, there is a flurry of activity behind the counter, the aroma of breakfast makes us smile when we enter and there is a line that stretches to the door. Folks are waiting. Few dine in and most are carrying out several to go boxes per person. The prices are reasonable and for the portion size, I would say budget-minded. Get the Olean's omelette. It's generously sized and enough for 3 meals. It looks nothing like a traditional omelette. It reads more like a breakfast casserole. Eggs, potatoes, sausage, veggies and cheese. It's comfort food on a plate. I am so sorry I didn't take a photo to share. I highly recommend this meal option! My dining companion ordered scrambled eggs, bacon and plain grits. My dining companion stated they were the best restaurant grits they'd ever eaten. The bacon was piled high on his plate! He took 1/2 this meal home. Mrs. Olean is behind the counter and just as personable as can be. She sets the tone for hospitality and it shows with her courteous staff. There was ample parking. The dining room is small, probably 10 tables in all. Most seem to be taking bags with their to go containers. Few people leave with one container. We will certainly return for some of their lunch options next.

    This is where me and my coworker go to treat each other because of how great it is. Can't go wrong…read morewith anything they serve. Personally I love the oxtails and turkey. The girls at the front are so sweet and fun and let us know what to get every time. I'm still trying to come for their Tuesday hot chicken.

    The atmosphere was inviting and the staff were very patient with our large group and friendly…read more Great variety of menu selections and the food was excellent.

    The restaurant is a nice opportunity to get some soul food. Yet, the food really needs more soul…read more No wait time at our noon visit to Saturday brinch. Our visit was lackluster to say the least. Only a couple of tables active so it's difficult to judge efficiency. The limited brunch menu prices were pretty decent for these days, about $20/pp +tx, tip. Service could have been a little more attentive. We had fried chicken platters. The main course of chicken wasn't bad yet could be better. Cooked done but still juicy, which is a plus. Not battered but possibly a light flour dredge, with no seasonings so very light coating and somewhat lacking in flavor. We added a side of gravy which was delightful; a hearty beef debris sauce fit for a proper poutine, (which they don't serve). The collards, had a bitter to maybe even a fishy? taste. Not southern style at ALL. The Mac and cheese... needs a lot more cheese and butter, also that crusty cooked home style taste was missing. All in all a so-so meal with a lot more potential. The decor could use some livening up. The theme is a bit heavy for a good restaurant. It could use some lighter, colorful, lively adornments. We'll be back to try again. One of our members used to frequent Early's to retrieve food for the governor's mansion and raved about it. So, a little back to the future is needed.

    Loved the vibe. Loved how it was a historic building. And the name Edison ties into the building's…read morehistory. We had crab cakes, roast beef sandwich, salmon, and shrimp and grits. The crab cakes were a generous portion and super tasty with fried green tomatoes. The sandwich with the au jus was yummy. Salmon was plain but clean eating and the shrimp and grits were good. The waiter was really nice and friendly.

    **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!
