Food was absolutely DELICIOUS from the appetizer to the main dishes! Highly recommend...we just happened to stumble upon this restaurant and we are so very glad we did!! We are leaving with full bellies and smiles on our faces!

They accepted us last minute and treated us so well for my aunts birthday. The drinks and food were amazing! Our server was really sweet and helpful for our brunch.

Ana the event director and staff were great making sure the bridal shower was a success! The Spanish theme banquet was delicious😋. No doubt a great place to hold events.

Despite how busy the place was, we had excellent service from Desi and a young woman who was working behind the bar outside. Thanks for providing us with a great experience!

I was there for a sales meeting. The accomodations were great. Every staff member i had dealings with were very nice and helpful. One of them really went out of her way for me. The kitchen had prepared a prime rib, chicken, potatoes, grren beans and salad. It was a great place to have a meeting and dinner. You can go downstairs after and have a drink in the bar area. Edison restaurant is an older place but it has a lot of character and a certain cosiness about it.

Food was great, really nice looking place with cold beer.

We have been wanting to come here for some time. I really cant believe we stayed after we walked in.Very antiquated place looked for a booth that didnt look worn.Very disappointed in the menu.Had to ask for a clean table cloth ours had crumbs left n it.My husband ordered a pot pie it was a gelatinous mess.I had small pizza of course you really cant screw up pizza.Other than the fact I believe they stood across kitchen and threw toppings from there.Food should be pleasing to look at.Staff who i believe were in their break sat at corner booth.Kevin who came in used the F word as well as the girls.Oh well live and learn I suppose.We were looking for an anniversary venueit will not be here.

Great place to hang out with a large indoor bar and a comfortable covered patio. Enjoy affordable classic bar food and a goodly selection of brews along with a great view of the golf course. Relaxed and friendly service.

Always a great atmosphere. They need more help behind the bar.

The Edison on MacGregor in Historic Fort Myers offers a relaxing environment for food banquet gatherings, recreational golfing, and a pub-style food and spirits lounge to sit back or catch the latest BEARS GAME.Kevin and staff are always hospitable and welcome all patrons for lunch, dinner, or even a pizza and beer.Great local spot for those who appreciate a better leisure experience here in SWFL.

Searched for a restaurant that served a thanksgiving buffet. This was one of the only ones open. The place had a nice decor. It was kind of dark. The buffet was small compared to what Im used to. I understand that covid effected many businessThe food was lackluster. The mashed potatoes tasted like instant mashed potatoes. The pasta salad came from a ready-made cartons. For Pete sake. Attempt to make some items from scratch. Price dictate food quality. Ill spend more to get better

The band was awesome as usual. The jumbo wings sounded good. Too bad they were all out of wings.Got the buffalo chicken dip instead. BIG MISTAKE. Could have opened a can of chicken st home. The bread bowl it came in was ok but chicken cream cheese and hot sauce dip sucked.Service was slow and cheese sticks came without sauce.Bar tender had to handle bar and tables.Edison used to be a great place to go to eat not anymore.

Everything from the min we stepped in . Greeted . Great hospitality. Service great. Something for almost everyone on the menu . Food outstanding. 10 star experience.

We have our Lions Club meeting here. Food and service are great!

Its okay. Its a cool place to be seen. Historic and kinda creepy. Definitely worth a trip if youve never been. Bailey the bartender is cool and helpful. Food alright, in my opinion overpriced for what it is but you pay for the ambience!

It was nice, we were there for an event and went to the bar after. Cold beers and the food was good!!

Three things will prevent me from coming back. First we sat in front of a vase filled with daisies covered in fat fruit flies. Was informed they were placed there to attract them and then they cover them with a bag at the end of the night and throw them out. Gross. Ordered the prime rib stew as seen on two chalk boards at the entrance listed as the daily special. Was informed that no one cleaned the boards in probably a week as the had no stew. Then, the bar back, Nathan, was rude and disrespectful to my husband then went and sat at the other side of the bar and stuffed his face. Pear salad was ok. Tuna appetizer was ok.

Horrible. Came here after the Edison Ford Winter Estates tour and I would not recommend. For a restaurant in a very touristy part of town it was a horrible experience. The staff were so unprofessional, food was gross, and the environment was not what you would think. I think they should realize what clientele they should be catering to in order to operate a real business. Ordered the Pot Pie which was just chick soup. It was so gross.

Enjoyed my besties wedding. The food was amazing! Not typical blah wedding food. Every thing was perfect

Clhs alumni get together. Great venue.Good foodAccommodations very nice

Great meatloaf. I have resided in SW Fla for 12 years. I choose meatloaf whenever it is a lunch offering, and theirs by far is best.

Food was very good.Staff efficient and friendly. Atmosphere historic. Had a great time. Id definitely go again.

Nice family atmosphere. Food was very good.

Very nice atmosphere, good food and a great touch of history.

We ate lunch on the deck overlooking the golf course. The jalopeno burger was excellent. It was the special of the day. Being in wonderful Florida, masks are not required! 😎

Great drinks and food thanks Crystal

Went for happy hour. Great prices and friendly staff.

The food was good except the prime rib was over cooked the waffles were like a rock and the cinnamon buns were hard everything else was good

Great food, we are definately going back...soon.

The Edison, McGregor Blvd., Fort Myers, Fl., Here is my 2 cents on the food and chatter.I was suprise as to how empty this place appeared to be. This being a big golf course & well known eatery. A few workers and 2-3 guys having a drink at the bar.The food. For 12 bucks, I got a fairly large and very fresh salad. I really enjoyed it. Plus a chicken pot pie with puff pastry on top. The pie was very creamy. Thick with white chicken meat, peas, carrots and taters. A bit salty but I am sure thats me. Plus a sweet tea. A good lunch at a reasonable price.My server disappeared quite often but always pop up when I needed something.Over all a good experience. I would go back.

Food was great. We had a work meeting with 8 of us so they gave us our own little area. It was very nice and the service was great as well. Highly recommend.

While the atmosphere was nice the food was horrible. Fish & chips were doughy & greasy and meat in French dip was dry. Actually got sick off the fish. So for drinks good but food: just say NO!

It was nice place the food was very good Im definitely coming back for the food the employees was very nice especially spencer he was really cool and nice to me and my little brothers.

Good service, furniture and decor is old very tired

The first time that I had been there in a long time and have always had a good time when I have been there, especially in the Casual area , the banquet room is always very nice

Friendly Staff Great Service and Menu choices Love the History of the Of the Premises along with Thomas Edison Theme.

Do not order delivery from these guys. Order consistently incorrect.

The Thanksgiving buffet at the Edison was fabulous. We had a table on the terrace, the service was exceptional. Starting with making the reservation with Glenda to meeting our server, Keaton, and other staff members. Everyone was friendly and professional. We have already made our Christmas reservation.

Very good food good service very happy with it as usual 👍👍

We head great time and anna was great orgenize our party and food . great staff .

Wonderful meal, friendly staff.We had a very pleasant evening out.

Relaxing, safe and fun atmosphere, great food and personable service.

Great food, cute neighborhood Bar & grill, music with lots of energy, would definitely recommend

Southwest Florida Bears Fan Club meets here for games, or stop in after your round of golf. Inside or on the back porch overlooking the golf course, youll have a good time.

Michelle and Alex are the bomb

Officiated a smaller wedding at the restaurant and it was absolutely beautiful.

Great place with a nice and comfortable old feel. Neat menu and the venue for a wedding ceremony worked out nicely.I got a private tour of the facility and was quite impressed. We look forward to returning for lunch dinner sometime.

Service was so bad we all left.Its a shame because I live a few streets down. Dont east your time.

Service was slow and it took a long time for the food to come out then all at once. You can tell it had been under a heat lamp for a bit. Its been a long time since I had a real good Cuban sandwich and remembered a while back that I enjoyed one here. I am still waiting for a good Cuban, cause they dont have one here. Didnt finish it.

Excellent service and great food!!

Employees not wearing masks or not wearing them properly. Open buffet with no sneeze guards. Customers sitting way too close and people not taking the proper precautions to prevent the spread of disease.

The building’s interior decor is on point, the menu is varied and tasty, but the lack of effort to incorporate enhanced safety measures during a pandemic is concerning. No server wore a mask, and the tables were not even close to 6 feet apart.

By far the best place for Bears fans in SWF!! I used to go to Chicago pizza in Cape Coral but they decided to be cheap and not get the nfl package this year so all of you Bears fans should check out the Edison Bar and Grill!! Go Bears!!!!

Beautiful place to host am event. Servers and bartenders always take extra care

Nice staff, quick service. Very flexible. Not inexpensive, but not outrageous either. The mahi was very good, simply seasoned and cooked just right. Pours are generous.

Awesome place, dont expect to feel safe or see anything that remotely resembles social distancing.

Always great service ,drinks and food

Cant give it five stars as the food was sub-par at best. It is a nice clean establishment with an outgoing staff at the bar.

Ive been here for a couple of different occasions and I must say that they are a very consistent operation. they can take care of two or 200 with the same sense of urgency. Very kind and considered people with an interesting food assortment. Its a great place for lunch and its also a good late night spot for drinks, music, and an all around good time.

I want to retire here 😀😃🤩😍🥰

I’d like to give this restaurant a decent rating, but the only thing it has going for it is the bar scene, which was so loud it made dinner a terrible place to talk with friends. We met three other couples there yesterday for dinner and very little went right.Two of us had appetizers, and both were almost inedible. I had the friend green tomatoes and mozzarella, and while the mozzarella was good, the fried green tomatoes were still very hard and green and only lightly fried. I had to use a serrated knife just to cut one and then found it to be like eating a very raw green tomato.Out of eight entrees, only one person was satisfied. Three of us had pizza (because our server raved about it) but it was awful! Way too much red sauce and very little cheese…sorry, but I’ve had better frozen pizzas.Our server took our drink order, which arrived promptly, but after that we saw very little of her. This establishment needs a lot of work before it can compete with other good restaurants in the Fort Meyers area.

Great Margaritas . we went somewhere else to eat the menu wasnt what I would expect for such a Name and Building. Decieving...

I love this spot!

Food was great as always. Ordered to go food and was ready right at the time I planned. Love it.

I guess I can blame it on the the times were in right now, but service was pretty bad. Our orders came in sparingly, some got theirs an hour later and others never got their food. I gave it a 2 star for the poor new waitress that was left alone (no reason, the place was empty) with a table of 10. Been there, done that, wont repeat.

Excellent food and staff! We had an event with the All American menu (meatloaf, fried chicken, fish, coleslaw, and mashed potatoes) and it was so so good. Even though there were call outs and the staff was shorthanded, they still brought out food in a timely manner. Food was brought out fresh as it was running low to ensure everyone got it fresh as the buffet line went on. Lemonade was very tasty as well - maybe well try catering some other events from here in the future too! Good food that made me want to try to come on my lunch again sometime! :)

Burgers and corn dog bites were really good. Three service was attentive and helpful. Thanks Liz and Nikki. The Chicago Bears fans were AWESOME!!!! Thanks, Kevin!

Always good food .....

Good time boo bash

The mushroom Swiss burger wasnt bad. Ive had better. My friend got a chicken pot pie for take out. The portion was so small, I thought it was ordered from the childrens menu. Service was excellent.

We sat at the bar. Great service, the bartender had a great personality. The food was ok, not a large portion by any means (we had chicken tenders and fries). Need bar area, lots of history on the walls. Well worth a visit (Tuesday is prime rib night).

I was there for a celebration of life from the time I walked in what a beautiful entrance. Bartenders were awesome and Brian did a great job. I will definitely be back. Crab cakes OMG delicious and thank you for the champagne

Since weve moved to downtown Fort Myers we have enjoyed so many restaurants, but never tried the Edisons at the Country Club. So we went around 4pm. BEST SERVERS, BEST BAR STAFF AND MANAGERS!! Everyone was so nice! The food was amazing plus there were SO MANY other items we wanted to try. NEXT TIME. The Menu is not too big, and has a wonderful selection. Ordered the Portobello mushroom, DELICIOUS! Then we ordered the Chicken Pot Pie and the Chicken Monte Carlo. BOTH were really really good. I mean DELICIOUS! I had a dirty Martini that was great and the beer was also great. Had the opportunity to even talk to the Manager, ALL STAFF HERE IS FANTASTIC! We will be back soon! Thank you!!!

Very unorganized!!! Took 55 minutes just to get our salad and we had to ask for it. The silverware, which was wrapped in napkins, was dirty and sticky. The pot- pie was served cold in an extremely small bowl (like the size of a coffee cup) with a biscuit on top that was extremely hard n dried out. It cost $12 !! We never really knew who our actual server was. All servers were friendly but it was totally disorganized. The place needs a good cleaning. Dirty dishes were every where. Seems like new management would do wonders.

Dinner was great. Food very good. Service is excellent. Victoria is a great waitress- she is pleasant and informative.

The food was just so, so. Our waiter was fantastic. He took care of a large party of us like it was no big deal. My hat is off to him.

Had our wedding rehearsal dinner and reception here. They out did themselves! The food was excellent, the staff was professional, accommodating, and hustled to get the job done perfectly. Our night was so much fun! Thank you!

Stopped by The Edison with a few friends on a Wednesday night a few weeks ago. We all really enjoyed ourselves. The guy Joe played great guitar and had a great voice he really knew his stuff, the bar staff was very friendly, the food was really good to, our group had the burger topped with pulled pork, chicken wings, the everything pizza, and cold beers. The Edison has a really nice atmosphere to enjoy a night out with friends . For our group Wednesday is the best day for us to get together so it was great to find a place we all enjoyed ,great entertainment, staff, food and drinks. Hope it doesnt change!

Filthy tables out on the patio, chairs falling apart,....just disgusting. Went inside rather than completely walking out. Service was slow.. Although our waitress was lovely. The food was mediocre but I couldnt get past the filth.

I was recently there to help a friend take a look at the tower, a room you can rent for special parties. I didnt even know there was a second floor at the Edison and I was amazed at how much space whats available up there. With three unique cubby hole Windows looking over the golf course, and a built-in bar area, this room is ready to go for any occasion. It has a Charming skylight oh, and bathroom is right there in the hallway. A+. We look forward to our party in July

American food and service here is great. This place is absolutely one of my favorites. Will surely make a return trip. It has a cool feel to it. I can see why they have so many reviews.

Wedding.

This place is terrible and filthy. Poor food and very very unsanitary. Wouldnt recommend to my worst enemy

Thanksgiving Dinner, 2018, a reserved dinner for 4 at 3:00 p.m., was a major disappointment for the cost of $45 per person. First of all, our reservation was made in PERSON (as the two phone calls to reserve were not returned), and when we arrived, the actual woman who made the reservation (we talked directly with her) could not find it, did not remember us, but did finally honor it. We were in the last seating group of the day at 3 p.m. We did not get seated until 3:30. There were dishes that were no long available in the buffet, including cornbread stuffing, cocktail sauce for the the shrimp cocktail, and the chocolate cake for dessert. And beyond that, the burners or heat sources for several of the dishes were no longer on, so several of the side dishes were cold. Because of the obvious high volume of diners, the dishes and serving utensils were messy, and the buffet tables were also less than appealing. However, I will say that the meats were hot and very good, and the salad bar was good. I just think we should have been given a discount, or told at the onset that the final seating would probably be lacking. A less than satisfying Thanksgiving dinner, to be sure.

I was really surprised by how incredibly filthy the restaurant was. I had been here once before and it was not bad. This time was entirely different. The buffet plates were dirty with visible food droplets on them, the kitchen staff who brought food in were in t-shirts and basketball gym shorts, they wait staff was inattentive. I asked for ketchup at the beginning of the meal and received it promptly upon my finishing my last bite of food. I ordered water along with my drink, and it was very sweet-- there was some kind of sugar syrup in it! Probably the most revolting part of the experience was the condition of the mens room. It was incredibly filthy, so filthy you could not sit down if you had to. See the image I have included. This place is utterly disgusting. You can tell that no one cares and there is no attention to detail or the customers experience. It seems they have lost their way.

We went for Thanksgiving last year. Horrible food, cold, Never Again.

The worst service Ive had in Lee County. A friend and I were attending a workshop. We hadnt eaten anything since breakfast, it was 6:08, so we had 22 minutes to grab something. We hit the bar for something quick. Bartender totally ignored us. Try to get her attention. She said Be right with you by the time she got to us we only had time to grab a couple of sweet Teas and get to our workshop. Of course no tip. After our workshop the Restaurant Manager overheard us plotting on where to eat and mention the restaurant. I told him we tried that route and it wasnt pleasant. He tried to fix it, but we werent receptive. We politely said maybe next time. We havent been back.

If you want good fast service DONT GOIf you want good food DONT GOIf you want to have a conversation while there DONT GOIf you want to watch the staff play on their phones than you SHOULD GO.WORST SERVICE EVER DONT TIP....unless good service is provided then of course tip. No service or terrible service then one should not receive more than what it is worth. Here is some feedback on hopes that it will improve your business...monitor your staff as they are on the phone every chance, waiter should write down the order so he doesnt forget it...lost revenue as we never received our extra side salads or appetizer. The sides for the entree were wrong. The drink order took so long for the specialty beer we were almost done dinner. The waiter brought two to try to make amends but nobody wanted another one. What a waste. Server never asked how our meal was. It took longer to get our bill then our meal which was also longer than it should be. It wasnt busy, understandably with such poor service and cold food...likely Sat under the heat while staff joked around looking at each others phones. We are long time residents of Ft Myers and have given your establishment multiple opportunities to provide improved service. Unfortunately, each time it gets worse. On this occasion with our party of 6 whom have all worked service at one time or another were appalled at the service. The waiter was given a tip even though it was not earned. He could have gotten our minimum tip of 30% but we all agreed it wasnt even close to being earned. There are too many restaurants in Ft Myers to ever come back to yours. I hope this helps you with a more detailed account of the poor service.

This restaurant is one of our weekly favorites! My go-to cocktail is the Pretty in Pink Martini. Its delicious! The Edison is classy and casual all at the same time. We definitely recommend this restaurant if you are looking for a fun and relaxing night out!

Moved 1 mile away 8 yrs ago bc loved the upscale people, food and bands-stopped in and on a Sat nite in season and after a huge gulf tournament at 9 and no band-noone even in the dining rm and really drunk people at the bar outside and were handed drinks to go-what a shame!! Was also closed for 2 day in April for MANY violations including rat infestation! Dont eat there!!!!

Havent dined there in many years, so noticed some changes since . It is still a pleasant atmosphere for dining w/spouse, friends, coworkers. Dining on the porch overlooking the golf course is always pleasant but todays heat didnt allow for that.Full bar, pleasant service, Nice choices on the menu, moderate prices. Glad we decided to have lunch there.

My son and his husband recently got married on your golf course and reception was in your banquet hall. The servers were pleasant. Open bar was also nice. The problems we had was during there vow exchange, there was golfers teeing off. The staff should of approached the golfers and asked them to wait. Afterwards, when we went to eat our dinner, the steak was like eating leather, broccoli was like eating a salt stick, potatoes were to spicy, ceasar salad didnt have croutons. The appetizers was better then the dinner it self. My family and myself couldnt finish eating our dinner because it was horrible. I have had a dinner at Applebees that was better then what I ate at my son wedding. Then when we went to pay for the five extra people we were given a bill for over $700.00 for a gratuity we werent aware of. We were told it was for setting up the venue. For $30 a plate the food should of been what we paid for. The only thing Im thankful for is that my son and husband enjoyed there wedding. I will never recommend your food to anyone. The 20% should of been added to the venue bill when my son paid for it, not at the end of the wedding.It makes it look like you were just wanting more money out of us.

Average. Staff unfriendlyOur waitress was awesome though

Amazing atmosphere. Lots of talking, chatter... A lively place. Only went here once but it was very memorable.

My wife and I decided to have our wedding here June 17th. It took us a while to choose the right spot for us, but after meeting Andrea and seeing the main Edison room we knew we had the right spot. We worked with Andrea for months and she made us feel like we were her #1 clients. She made preparing for the wedding a breeze and worked with our DJ and photographer on times. My favorite thing about the experience was Andrea’s willingness to be realistic with us as well as working with our budget and times. Weddings are only supposed to happen once and this was our first. Stumbling around planning such an event was daunting, but once again she made it easy. Once the day arrived a little bit of chaos ensued with being 30 minutes late, but Andrea didn’t even blink. We had an excellent wedding that our guests loved. The food was absolutely amazing and the waitresses, bartender, chef at the carving station were so welcoming that it made us feel like we were royalty. I highly recommend this venue for weddings or events as the give it their absolute all!

Food was really good. The place is very cool looking! Our server a guy named Mike was awful. 3 times asked for iced tea and he kept bringing Diet Coke. Could not remember anything or get anything straight. And the place was empty! We could not figure out why he was struggling so bad. Perhaps he was on cold tablets or something but he certainly look banged up to top it all off. Would consider going back on Mikes night off

Fun atmosphere for college games, especially if youre a Gator fan. Drinks are fair priced but who cares about that, go and check it out!

We had our rehearsal dinner at the Edison Restaurant and it went perfectly. They have a great building that is in good shape and we were so happy with the communication they had in preparation for our event. They were also very accommodating with a few food sensitivities we had such as gluten free, vegetarian, and some kids meals. Andrea was very prompt and professional and easy to work with.

I frequent this establishment every other Wednesday night to see the No Name Band 7pm to 11pm who are really with the band Blackfoot. They play great southern rock and pick it up for the second set. These young guys are really talented and can actually play LA Women(Doors) which no band can play in the area. No cover. So tip the band. The booze is cheap $2 for a draft,, $3 for wells and $4 for a martini. The burger and fries are good. I always get great service from the bartenders. Be patient she will get to you and give her decent tip.Its a great Wednesday night.escape.

My company had an awards banquet here, and the food was incredibly good. Ive never tried this place before that, but I need more of that meatloaf and cornbread - it just melts in your mouth! Im going to try to bring my friends here for lunch or dinner sometime again soon!
