   Phenomenal experience and food. Service was top notch and the veal parm is one of the best I’ve ever had. Will be back next time I am in town!

   The food at Cafe Emilia is always really good. The service started out a bit slow but I’ll chalk that up to the volume of people arriving at around the time we were seated. Marco was great otherwise. Always nice to get a greeting from Andy. The only complaint I have was not the restaurants fault. The noise level of two nearby tables was ridiculous. Have people forgotten how to behave in a restaurant? Talking so loud that we could hear every word of their conversation and that forced us to talk louder or lean into each other to hear ourselves. These people either had no sense of awareness or didn’t care. They acted as if they were the only ones in the room. I do wish the manager would acknowledge the excessive noise level with these types of guests.

   One of the best chicken dishes I’ve ever had. The staff is so accommodating and everyone pitches in when it’s busy.

   Cafe Emilia is our favorite Italian place to go! The food is always great and Andy and the rest of the staff are amazing! The service could not be better. Definitely recommend for a romantic dinner, family dinner or parties.

   The food was very good but the dining room is cramped and the service below par. We ordered 3 appetizers and non were delivered. We had to ask repeatedly for drink service.

    Ive been wanting to try this restaurant for so long and it was an Awful experience. Food was mediocre. The main guy in charge was SO RUDE. We waited 45 min just for our appetizer and when I politely said something to him to make sure our order didn’t get lost since we never had a waiter we had to order with the bus boy, he told me we weren’t waiting for 45 min, That there were a million other people he was taking care of and told me to RELAX. WILL NEVER go back.
