Was Angie at Ema a mag?
The ambiance, service, and decor were outstanding. The food was a true culinary delight. Our party of seven sampled almost everything on the menu and found it all to be delicious. We particularly enjoyed the bhel and lamb hummus. The desserts, including the frozen yogurt and sticky date cake, were absolutely divine. View all feedback.
What bill argo dislikes about Ema:
To be honest, we were somewhat let down by our experience at this restaurant. We are fans of Aba and had high hopes for this place, but sadly, it didn't meet our expectations. Both the food and drinks were underwhelming. View all feedback.
Great food and good service. The drinks were good and the kebabs were soft and tasty. All the spreads are worth trying.
Enjoyed this place more than Aba. Really nice and cozy interior with comfortable chairs and lots of seating. I noticed the low noise levels, which was refreshing! Didn’t need to shout across the table or strain to hear anyone. Pumpkin hummus was myfavorite as was the beet salad. Everything was so good!
Very romantic night vibes at this restaurant and our main server was very inviting. A nice spot for a date night and highly recommend a seat indoors if you can to enjoy the lighting and decor. The food was good, mainly ordering several small plates toshare. Despite its appearance, we filled up quickly with our selection! Of what we ordered, the octopus was absolutelydelicious and the highlight of our meal. We saw many people order the falafel, and given the restaurant‘s Mediterranean theme,we did as well but it was a little too over cooked for my liking with an almost burnt taste and very tough to eat with your forkor even cut with a knife. The flavors were good but the doneness did it injustice. Because we ordered several plates we thoughtthat the wait staff would clear off the empty plates but it took them longer than expected and we needed to ask once.
