Friedman’s at the Edison is an experience all should have when visiting Times Square. Whether it's pre-theatre, after a show or just browsing the area - we're a must do. Located inside the art deco Hotel Edison, our exquisite dining room is truly breathtaking. Friedman's is proud to announce our partnership with Gayle’s Broadway Rose - Singing Servers! Enjoy live music during dinner services on select days. See Upcoming Events below.

We consider ourselves the gluten-free pioneers of NYC and our food is always delicious. Dinner at Friedman's consists of classics like Moms Famous Meatloaf, Pan-Seared Ginger Salmon and Chicken & Waffles. With a wide range of options for vegetarians and vegans, we know how to make anyone feel like family.

Our extensive wine list and hand-crafted cocktails shouldn't go unnoticed either. Join us at our wrap around bar before your meal in the dining room.

    We’ve eaten at the Friedmans around 31st Street, excellent. This Friedmans on 47th street, not great. My pastrami was sinewy, wife’s food salty. Great singing by the waitstaff.

    It's a very festive place but very loud with talented wait staff members performing. Food is good. It's not an extensive menu

    We were a party of 9, but booked 2 reservations for 5 and 4. We added a note to try to sit us together and they tried to accommodate that by giving us 2 booths next to each other. The waiter was very attentive at the start but seemed to forget about us towards the end of the meal. We were a group with a wide range of diets, and the menu offered a great variety for all of us to enjoy. My eggs were cooked perfectly, and the bacon was great! The toast was a bit dry. My family members enjoyed their meals. This is a reliable restaurant for the Times Square area and would come back again.

    We had a fantastic server! Make sure you make reservations as it is very busy. Over all brunch was very good. The highlight was definitely the Mac-n-cheese! Crazy good. We had the broccoli falafel, blueberry pancakes, the egg breakfast, and the Greek dish

    This is the second time we have eaten here. We love the freedom of choice it gives our gluten free daughter. Excellent food and atmosphere.

    Everything in the restaurant was phenomenal. Food and service wonderful. Highly recommend a reservation. Only downside was the small bathroom (in the hotel) that felt like about 90 degrees.

    We went on the Thursday after christmas. Part of the reason we went was to hear the singing waitstaff. Thoroughly enjoyed it, not just the performance but also the food. Had a fantastic waitress.

    the food was delicious. The only negative is that the singers - who are very talented - are much too loud.
