"We enjoyed our dinner but at times felt rushed by our server. We ordered all vegetarian entrees and the menu had a good variety to choose from. Loved the garlic potato salad and rolled eggplant with goat cheese. I love tapas until I get the bill!"

"We love Emilio's and have a group of friends that like to go as a group.
For a taste of Spain west on Roosevelt Road this is a fun place with great food
you don't have to have tapas...but why wouldn't you. The noise is moderate (unless you
are close to the bar) so you can have a conversation. The chef and hostess often stop
by to say hello or bring you a free taste of a new addition. This time we went for
Easter Brunch. Great job."

"Emilio's never fails to be an enjoyable experience, whether it's a table for two or for ten, as we had on this visit. Friendly service, great food, and a "vacation" in Spain!"
