   We had a reservation for 12 and they sat us in the back room near a large window with no heat or space heaters. Everyone had to eat with scarves and jackets it was so cold. No apologies and no explanation as to why we were sat in the coldest spot in the restaurant since it was empty when we arrived. Food and service were decent but everyone was COLD!

   Service was pretty bad and inattentive. The salmon BLT was nearly inedible- salmon was way overcooked and there wasn’t any sauce . They were also unwilling to swap french fries for any other side or salad. The pizza, which is what they are known for, was pretty good.

   We had a team lunch here today. The service was impeccable and the food was delicious. We had salads, salmon, pizza, and the fantastic squash/ brussel sprout appetizer. Everything was great and I will definitely be back.

   Great experience, great food. This is the best gluten free crust I’ve had since having to go gluten free. I love it!

   The pizza was excellent and the waiter was friendly but the service was bizarrely slow. We had a reservation and were seated at 5:30 but the food didn’t come out until almost 7pm which made us late for a 7:30 show at Nats Park. Plus, tables that came in well after we did were served food before we were. It’s a shame this was such a frustrating experience because this is otherwise a very nice place with great food.

   We visited Emmy Squared-Navy Yard for the first time on July 4. Since it was a holiday, I tried to be forgiving in this review. When we first arrived, the host welcomed us and cleaned off a table for our party of two. We sat and waited. And waited. Servers were nowhere near. It seems as if they were very short-staffed. After 10 minutes, the couple seated at a table next to us got up, told us that they came after us and weren’t going to wait any longer for a server. After they left, we were able to flag down the host, who apologized for the delay and took our order. It was my first experience with Detroit-style pizza. We ordered pizza with sausage and banana peppers. Very good! Pricey, but mostly worth it. The Brussels Sprouts salad was good, but it was disappointing to have it served with peanuts instead of the cashews listed on the menu. Overall, a mixed experience. The combination of good food and lackluster service is still good enough for me to be willing to visit again. Perhaps, I’ll just try carry-out next time.

   Has to be the worst pizza and “burger” or i ever had. I would have been better off at a fast food place. Waited over 10 minutes to be seated, then about 20 minutes for someone to walk over and take my order and another 30-35 to get my order. The pizza was raw in the middle, uncooked, unsure if it was the toppings or the cheese but it smelled funky. The craziest part was that the “burger” was ground beef with onions and peppers for $15 with a pickle and ketchup as sides. What the EXPLICIT???? And then expect an 18-22% tip. Service was poor!!!!!! Food was a waste, I threw it out. The economy is terrible and now expect to pay this price for terrible, stinky , oily food. I will never return and if you are reading this review, save your money and go elsewhere. You are better off at Pizza Hut.

    I love Emmy Squared but this trip was kind of disappointing. We love the Old Town location but our MVP pizza here tasted like grease. Not enough vodka sauce (you could barely see it) and it just tasted like the pesto and it was unbalanced. Not like pizzas we had before where you can actually taste flavors instead of fat. The service was OK - the server was very nice but my friend was given honey over maple syrup and it just took forever for one pizza and pancakes to be fired despite being the only people there. The people were very nice though.
