We had the opportunity to visit Emporio after visiting the handmade arcade this weekend. Our timing was utter perfection before the rush of shoppers and cheerleaders arrived!
The ball of the month - the dragon ball - was so very good. We were able to get "saucy balls" with 2 dragon balls and 2 other balls of our choice. It was scrumptious!
Our waitress was on top of our service - refilled our drinks promptly, delivered food, took plates, etc. Everything was great and quick and easy.
The reason for the 4 and not 5 stars. We each had separate checks (3 of us) 2 paid with credit cards, I paid with cash. When my change was brought (my bill was $21.50 and I paid $30) - our waitress rounded my total up to $22 - and brought me $8 back. While it is likely that I would leave a tip including that 50 cents - I did not appreciate the assumption. What if I had chosen to not leave a tip due to horrendous service? (although I don't foresee myself ever doing that! and we didn't have horrendous service) You never assume what your tip is going to be. I still left a decent tip - but I was disappointed by that assumption.
Otherwise the food was great and the service was great.
