My wife and I were looking forward to dinner at Emily's as it finally filled the space that was Cafe Ted, which for years was one of our all time favorites. The only real positive was the space which was nicely done,
But with an odd grouping of tables - mostly six or eight tops?
To start, our server did not know anything about the menu. My wife ordered a glass of wine, and it was the smallest pour I have seen in a restaurant. She is a small person, but her chicken with corn and arugula was so small she headed for our fridge when we got home. My 40 cloves of chicken was good but two chicken thighs for $22 was way over priced. Also there was confusion with the waiter as to what else came with it. - a small portion of bread or potatoes and beans? When finished we asked for the desert menu and was told they had no deserts but we should look at the breakfast menu?
The menu is mostly interesting, but a lot of work needs to be done with the servers, the portions and total execution. We hope they improve to the level of Cafe Ted and we will be regulars.
