Rate-A-Restaurant, #24 in a series

Restaurant: Edendale Grill

Location: 2838 Rowena Avenue

Type of restaurant: Classic American

They stipulated: Reservations were strongly suggested.

What we ordered: Crab Cakes with tequila-lime sauce and Calamari for appetizers; grilled Seabass with asparagus (Maria); Salmon with creamy dill sauce (Mike)

High point: This beautiful restaurant had a cool and lazy atmosphere -- perfect setting for a nice dinner with some fun friends and naughty conversations. The tables on the outside patio were nicely spaced out, not crammed together to get the maximum capacity.

Low point: Some of the smoke from the cigarette-loving patrons were blowing in our area... not much, but an annoyance just the same.

Overall impression: A solid restaurant, impressive without trying so hard. Both the fish we ordered were good, not fishy at all and the crab-cakes and calamari were yum!

Chance we will go back: Yes, I must try the pot pie next time.
