Had been so excited to try this place. We went for Easter Sunday. No one was there - it was our table and another with 2 servers working. Our food was ok - waffle fries and chicken crunchers for the table to start. The fries were mediocre, the chicken crunchers were mainly breading and a little bit of thigh meat. We had 2 build your own pizzas which were good. Drinks refills were non-existent - we had to track down our server every time. We were her only table. By the time we left they had turned the music on and it was not so quiet. Another table or two had drifted in. Won’t be a place we return.

I would not return to this restaurant, it is expensive for what it is. I got a $15 salad and a $19 pizza and two margaritas to drink. My total bill with tip and tax was $71. The pizza was just OK and the salad wasn’t very good so unfortunately this is not a place I will be returning. My friend got the eggplant and let me try it after she said it was super salty and wanted me to give my opinion and yes, it was super salty.

Everything was excellent. Was a little upset that you can’t do half and half pizzas but the food was great. The eggplant parmesan was one of the best I’ve ever had. The Emmy Squared IPA was also a great beer. Overall I would definitely eat here again and highly recommend it.

The food was absolutely delicious and the portions are generous. Between five of us we split two salads, breadsticks & waffle fries, and three pizzas. We had leftovers but also managed to eat an order of zeppoles which were perfect. Service was attentive and friendly. Loved the music that was playing in the background too!

We had three pizza's, and all of them were great. We also had 2 caesar salads, again very fresh and yasty, but a bit skimpy for the price. All in all, a very good meal, if a bit expensive foe the quantity of food received.

It was my birthday and my dad gave me a gift card. We had the cheese sticks to start. So so so good! So pillowy and garlicky! Then we ordered a pizza and the burger. While the pizza was very good the burger was even better! They had a high chair for my youngest, which I was surprised but happy to find out. The inside is beautifully simplistic and the 90’s rock playing was exactly my type of place. We will definitely be back!

**Food was great** We had a fairly rude encounter with whom I assume was the manager. We originally reserved online for a table of 6 but ended up with 8 people instead and tried calling the restaurant numerous times about the update. She ended up having to seat us in the lounge area by splitting us on couches and one table. It was doable, but there were two big tables that were apparently reserved for other parties that she said would be coming at 6:30 and 6:45. We decided not to sit at them because we felt like we would have to be rushed to order dinner (our reservation time was at 5:45 and they ended up seating us at 6.). Those two parties never showed up for their reservations and it was 7 pm at that point. When we asked the manager about it, she said that the tables were reserved for 6:30 and 7:45, not 6:45. Of course, we were angry because we avoided sitting at the tables because we thought we were pressed for time. Had she told us the correct times, to begin with, we could have sat at the table until 7:45 and been done with our food. When we asked if we could go ahead and move to the table since the 6:30 reservation was a no-show, she said that was fine but then proceeded to get an attitude with me about how the food was going to be transferred. She asked if we were just going to leave our appetizers and go to the new table or take them with us. I was confused and didn't understand what her question meant, which led her to get unnecessarily snappy with me. Usually, the waiters/waitresses will accommodate the customers by transferring the plates to the new tables when any party moves from one table to the other, so I found the question extremely farfetched and the attitude unprofessional. It was almost like she was expecting us to transfer the plates ourselves. I really have never seen a manager act so rudely in an establishment and expected our first visit to Emmy's to be much better than what it was.
