    Beautiful restaurant and excellent food. However, it is very loud in there, and the wait staff is a bit too aloof for my taste.

    We loved it here!!! All the food was fantastic & in our mind better than Ema downtown. So many more vegetarian options. We’ve been here twice in two weeks. Ask for Will to be your server. Everyone takes care of you there!!! It’s worth the trip!

    It was a great first time experience. Was my best friends birthday. Surprised us with a complementary dessert at the end even without me asking. The server payed close attention to small details like that was very pleasant.

    Loved, loved, loved my husband‘s birthday dinner at Ema. Gorgeous decor, extremely competent and friendly wait staff (thx, Cecilia!), and supremely delicious food. So fun and festive on a rainy night in March. Highly recommend.
