   Great ambience, very pleasant staff and very clean. Food was very tasty. The calamari is our favorite but prefer a lemon aioli to their dipping sauce. We both had the Surf & Turf sirloin with scampi prawns. Steak was tender, prawns were very good, potatoes tasty and vegetables were good. Love that they serve warm rolls with olive oil & garlic for dipping. Overall a very good dinner and would recommend.

   Some of the best steak to be enjoyed in a lovely setting on Silver Lake. Excellent service and fine libations are also on the menu.

   Our second time at Emory's over the years. Nice and cozy Anthonys on a small lake. The kids' burger was a good size and enough to share for two of them. The Seafood risotto was creamy and hearty enough to share. Very friendly staff. The heated patio with a fireplace is great this time of the year.

   Food was excellent, wait staff was very efficient and pleasant. Love the ambiance. Menu has been cut back to very minimal and prices are very high. $11 for a small side salad? That needs rethinking.

   I love this place!! My girlfriend and I had our first date on October 30, 2022 and the food, service and ambiance was amazing ❤️ We went again last night just to enjoy a night out and the experienced the same feelings as the first time!! The staff is very attentive, the food is amazing and the atmosphere is very romantic 💘 I recommend dining here for any occasion… date, anniversary, birthday or just because 😏

   The ambience was wonderful! Service was OK - waiter was very nice and capable. My only complaint is that she put the $24 shared appetizer all on my bill without asking- I would have preferred it to be split between the three of us. Overall it was nice but the food seemed a bit overpriced.

   Our meal was very subpar. We were expecting a little more for $32 per order. Emory’s used to be such a great place and it’s just not the same anymore. We felt rushed all evening. We were still eating our meal when we were asked if we wanted dessert. I hadn’t even finished my beverage with my meal when they already served the dessert. Our waitress seemed rushed or maybe they were understaffed. She never stopped at our table and talked to us while walking past our table. Most of the time she had already walked past us as she was asking her question. Quite honestly, this will be our last visit to Emory’s, as there are more choices around that will do a better job with the meal and service. Considering it was our anniversary it was extremely disappointing. Yes, they did give us our dessert at no charge, but it was only because they weren’t very good. Unfortunately, it didn’t make up for a disappointing evening. Sorry Emory’s, but you have lost a customer.

   Customer service and wait staff could definitely improve. I checked the box for an occasion (our anniversary) and nothing happened. No recognition at all. And this is not the first time this has happened. I will call the restaurant directly to make reservations going forward.

    We made reservations via the internet for dinner to enjoy a surf and turf special. They tried to first set us into the bar area to eat which was noisy. They then set us into the dining room but near high traffic area. The steak was good, but the lobster tail was small, overcooked and tough. One meal arrived cold and was quickly replaced. Service was good but the price was high for the meal we received.

    The steaks were a bit overdone compared to how we asked to cook them to. I asked for medium rare but it was more done and a bit tough.

    The food was not the same quality as Anthony’s. We had salads and my lettuce had brown edges on some pieces and the chicken was a little dry. The portion sizes were a little smaller and the bread selection needs to have more variety. My husband had the apple popover for dessert and he said there were very few apple slices in it. My crème brûlée was excellent however.

    The waitress was very nice, knew the food and had good recommendations. The food was of great quality and had wonderful flavor. Even for a short lunch menu, I could have had almost everything on it, giving me so many good choices. And since covid I've noticed lots of restaurants have gone downhill in their quality of food. NOT at Emory's. It was lovely

    We had a family lunch and tasted various parts of the menu. We didn’t get a table we wanted because they didn’t have enough staff. The starter came quickly along with that drink. The food came a bit later and we tried the fish & chips, garden pizza, chicken penne pasta, salmon burger. All of them tasted great.

    We hadn't been to Emory's since it has been sold to Anthony's but, we figured it might even be better now. It was good before privately owned and food was good and priced well. The menu had way more options then. It was New Year's Eve so you know it was a busy place but our waitress was very sweet and very good at what she did we had our drinks and appetizers and then our dinners and throughout the entire time we were there she checked on as often and brought more drinks if we wanted anything she was great. We hope that possibly there would be music in the bar that's why we requested to sit in the bar because the old Emery's always had music usually a 2 to 4 piece band and so fun. Not anymore the stage has been removed to of course put more tables in its place. I ordered a French dip sandwich and fries which is not my normal as I try to do low carb but since it was New Year's Eve I thought I'll start again tomorrow. Probably the worst French dip sandwich I've ever had the bread was hard the meat reminded me of deli meat that had been thrown into as you to Brown it up. Came with a few fries it was a small portion actually for the $18 they charged I felt and wasn't great french dip sandwiches are quite easy to make and they're quite easy to make wonderful. The rest of my party was also a slight bit disappointed but we love being together so we made it a nice time. Hopefully they will work on their menu and bring a little something special back to the menu and the food.

    I’ve been to Emory’s many times, but after last night’s experience won’t be going back anytime soon. The menu is quite limited, and our service was terrible. We waited for a drink for way too long, I asked for our small plates to come in a particular order (they didn’t), and our server was not very available. She acted very friendly and nice, but I think that isjust her routine. The food was good, but that isn’t enough for a happy dining experience.

    It’s been almost 10 months since Anthony’s took over the old Emory’s restaurant location. Except for a few items (my favorite French onion soup is no more!), most of the menu items are the same, or quite familiar to previous customers. They still have the delicious garlicy oil in which to dip your bread, and the ambiance and views are, of course, still all there. The biggest loss for us ‘regulars’ is the live music, although that all stopped in March 2020 because of the COVID shutdown. While I don’t think there is any Anthony’s locations that do have live music, I know there are many of us who hope to see it return to the Emory’s location - maybe 2023?

    We ate out on the closed deck area which was not our preference, but our booth wasn’t ready. It’s not as nice as the main restaurant and it tends to get warm with the overhead heaters. Service was still good, as well as the appetizers and entrees.

    One of if not the favorite restaurant. We go for dinner and Happy Hour or just a drink. The service is always the best and the location on the lake is calming. The deck in the summertime is awesome, its open air, but the sun can be killer at certain times of the day. It will be open sometimes in the winter as well. You'll love the entire experience.

    The food was excellent as expected & the service was good. However, even though we had a reservation, we were seated at a table in the bar area where it was extremely noisy, with noisy patrons at tables on either side. Big detraction from the ambience resulting in a less than pleasant dining experience.

    Service in terms of attending was great but food took over 70 minutes to arrive and my risotto was inedible. We were seated within 15 min of our reservation which we appreciated but the food taste was below average. It was the worst we have ever tasted from an Anthony's establishment. We are saddened as we really liked Emory's and this was our family's holiday dinner.
