    Ema’s is a new restaurant in Glenview and it doesn’t disappoint. The room is absolutely gorgeous and decorated beautifully. Noise level was moderate but we were able to have conversations without difficulty. Food was amazing! Particularly the hot honey halloumi and the Brussels sprouts. Short ribs and chicken kebabs were good. Pricey but we had a great time!

    Even though the restaurant was lovely and the food was decent, nothing in particular will draw us back. (The host/hostess situation when you walk in is not organized or very pleasant but that’s not unique to this restaurant so not a deal breaker just wish someone would figure out why it’s so difficult.)

    Our first trip to Ema was a hit. The decor, the service, and,of course, the food were all tops! Our waitress made fabulous suggestions and fully explained every dish perfectly. We will be back soon.
