Review content:
The Edison is a wonderful lounge for off-beat & artist types who dislike dance clubs, and just want to go sit on a couch and drink martinis with minimal 'hype'. The music is relatively easy-listening and not too loud (though we went on a Thursday night-not sure if the musical genres change for the weekends).
They screen silent nior films on one of the walls, which worked out great for my film-buff boyfriend. There was no long wait at the door (perhaps 2 parties ahead of us), and the hostess/bouncer at the door were both very friendly and accommodating.
There is also a smoking area with chairs and tables:)
The dress code is great, too (If you prefer places with some sort of dress code) and we had no problems 'getting in' wearing our typical garb-We did not have to 'dress up' in any outlandish fashion-(My boyfriend wore a collared shirt, slacks and a blazer and I wore a simple old dress and hat), but if you're partial to athletic, lounge, or 'club wear' you'll have to fix yourself up a bit for this place.
The drinks were above average for Los Angeles (Most places in LA make very bad, weak drinks, even the so-called 'best drink' places)- We drank extra dry vodka martinis and beer. The prices were average for everything; $8-$13 for the drinks and $10 to $15 range for the snacks. We ordered calamari to pick at, and it was pretty good (though it's hard to screw up calamari).
The decor is most interesting, a converted generator/boiler room place, which has some historical significance as well-a rare treat in LA. It is also part of a string of new places put up in the attempt to 're-make' downtown LA, which is a much needed and admirable endeavor. Contributing your patronage here can help 'clean up' our downtown. A wonderful place to hang out with friends, and bring visitors. Highly recommended.
Pros: Decor, Accommodations, Music/Entertainment, Dress Code, Drinks
Cons: Difficult to park anywhere in downtown
