The Edge Harlem

Low ceilings and red brick give The Edge Harlem the feel of a home kitchen rather than a restaurant, and two sisters run it on Edgecombe Avenue in Harlem. The all-day menu moves between Jamaican, British and American plates: jerk chicken, fish and chips, and burgers share space with pancakes and grits. Brunch runs every day, not just weekends, and the room holds only a handful of tables, keeping the pace close and unhurried.
