I just finished one of my favorite salads at Edison Pizza! The balsamic tortellini salad is perfect for a summer night! We were a party of nine and the service is great! The server Jill always takes care of my food allergy requests and service is always with a friendly smile!

Growing up my family would order from here quite regularly, and the food was always excellent. A few decades later I'm glad to say the place still remains just excellent, and a place I order from frequently. In an area saturated by pizzarias, Edison Pizza is in my opinion the best one. The food here is great, and just as importantly, is consistent with how good it is. The only criticism if I were to try and think of one is it can be pricey, however as brought up in some of the other reviews, there are legitimate reasons for the pricing, and you do absolutely get what you pay for here, both in taste and the amount of food you get with your orders.

We ordered boneless wings few days back and we liked them so much we ordered it again. This time the wings were slightly different so I called and spoke to Jill who is the Manager and explained what happened. She was very understanding and made be a fresh batch of wings and had it delivered quickly. Sometimes you can overlook things with the service given. Thank Edison Pizza for going above and beyond to make right. Def recommend this place.

We've been going here for years. Happy they survived the pandemic. The gnocchi in pesto cream sauce is amazing, but very rich. The pizza is always good. All the food is simple, but well done. I hope they bring back the Friday buffet.
