The Edison to have soft opening for public this week, reservations coming soon
The Edison at Disney Springs in Disney World will have a soft opening for the public this week and reservations will soon be available on Open Table, the company said on Twitter.
The Edison’s opening has long been anticipated, not only because of the food, but the ambiance. The restaurant is themed to a 1920s-era electric company and will include contortionists, aerialists and DJs.
While during the day it will welcome families for lunch and dinner, after 10 p.m. the building turns into a place for those 21 and older.
While The Edison held a large grand opening New Year’s Eve special event it will start testing meals out today (January 2, 2018) and will begin soft opening later this week. You will be able to make reservations on Open Table, starting Jan. 15, 2018.
Tomorrow evening we start our test meals for friends and family then later in the week will begin our soft opening for the public. Reservations will be available on Open Table starting 1/15

The backstory for the building involves it originally serving as the power plant for Disney Springs.
The décor includes a one-of-a-kind mural romanticizing the golden age of innovation and a larger-than-life, working clock tower that greets guests upon arrival. The Boiler Bar has electrical display panels. The adjacent boilers are the classic centerpieces of the power plant.
The menu will include classic American food and cocktails.
Three other restaurants are also part of the complicit. Pizza Pointe has recently opened. Maria & Enzo’s and Enzo’s Hideaway are also expected to open this month.
