"What started as a pandemic pop-up for bagel sandwiches eventually blossomed into Edith’s Sandwich Counter. Less than a year later, owner Elyssa Heller expanded with a sibling spot, Edith’s Eatery and Grocery, a more expanded, sit-down establishment (that, in my opinion, is better than her original). In early May, the restaurant launched a dinner program for those who want to sit at a table drinking zhug-doused margaritas and onion rolls ($8) — basically, adult savory cinnamon rolls that come with super spreadable ramp compound butter — in a room filled with shelves with dried pastas and pickled goods. Is it the modern day Zabar’s? No, but that shouldn’t stop you from having a great time. — Emma Orlow, reporter" - Eater Staff
