The Edison
The Edison is a restaurant in Tallahassee housed in a 1920s building that was originally a power plant. The space features high ceilings and large windows that flood the dining area with natural light, complemented by restored historic details and modern furnishings.
The building housing The Edison originally operated as a power plant in the early 1900s. It was later converted into a restaurant while retaining its industrial character and architectural bones from that earlier era.
The Edison takes its name from a famous inventor and represents Tallahassee's local identity. The space serves as a gathering point where neighbors and colleagues regularly meet to share meals and conversation.
The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating, and reservations are recommended since it frequently fills up. Dinner service runs most evenings while weekend brunch is available early in the morning, allowing flexibility for different schedules.
The restaurant sources beef from nearby farms, such as Angus meat from Jerkins Angus Farm, creating a direct link to local agriculture. The kitchen combines these quality ingredients with creative techniques, such as pairing pickled watermelon with Brussels sprouts and miso in a salad.
