| - Made a mistake to come on a Saturday, the wait was 2 hours and let me tell you, it was not worth the wait.
Prior to coming, I had set very high expectations, seeing the incredibly high rating considering the amount of reviews. To my surprise, food was very underwhelming. Got the Emma's benny, contrary to most benny's, it came with a mousseline sauce rather than a hollandaise sauce. Yes, a mousseline sauce is supposed to be richer than a hollandaise sauce. However, it just felt goopy and under-seasoned and did not compliment the soggy buttermilk biscuit. I also subbed the red skin potatoes with yukon gold frites. Which also came out cold. Seasoning on the fries were kind of nice, but yet again, under-seasoned.
Service was really good, servers were nice and polite. I'm not one to complain to servers about my food unless its REALLY REALLY bad. Like fly in my food bad. But this time I was just too disappointed and decided to pick out a complaint. I told her my fries were cold when she asked how was the food and to my surprise she apologized and voided it from the bill.
I still think that Emma's is still probably a good place to eat due to the overwhelming amount of good reviews. So will definitely have to revisit and try it again someday.
