Editorial Review for The Edison – by Randi Schmelzer
In Short
Located near Harlem Place Alley--core of L.A.'s early 20th century music scene--this converted cocktail spot with a "Sherlock Holmes-post-industrial vibe" caters to the area's upscale-loft residents. According to project partners Marc Smith (Golden Gopher) and Andrew Meieran (Mercury Liquors), renovation efforts keep the 1910 Higgins Building's original structure intact, and that includes preserving many of the original boiler room features such as the enormous central power generator.

I live in the Higgins building and go here all of them time, every visit I make, I bring new friends with me who are always amazed by this space. The best vintage club in town, along with Bordello.

I always have a good time here. Get here early is highly recommended! Good environment, mainly older crowd, no hollywood stuck up types haha. Interior design is great as well. The bartenders are good and fast. No major complaints here ;)
Pros: Fun fun fun
Cons: The long line if you arrive late!!!
