A typical food love story. A boy meets a girl while eating pizza. He attends culinary school and open’s a pizza restaurant named after the girl. Thus bringing us to Emily! The Manhattan iteration of the Brooklyn based pizzeria centered around a historic brick oven and comforting food. Emily has earned a following for its signature Detroit-style pies and award winning burger. The pizza here is rectangular (not round) and utilizes the "frico" technique, in which cheese is drizzled on the edges of the pie to create a crispy brown exterior. Beyond the main event, the menu extends to include salads and sandwiches, which shouldn't be ignored (think an attention-grabbing burger and a top-notch spicy fried chicken sandwich). Please note, there will be a time limit of 1 hour 30 minutes for guests so we can fairly utilize our limited capacity. Our outdoor dining is enclosed with heaters that will keep you toasty! Thank you :)

    Dining in the upstairs piano bar was an exceptional experience. Great way to spend an evening celebrating my birthday with friends. The performers were excellent, yet we could still have conversations at our table. We chose to have dinner as well. Their full menu is available. Delicious, especially their famous chicken pot pie, and the fish and chips. Service was perfect.

    A lovely restaurant! The atmosphere was energetic and service was excellent. Food was good, salad and artichoke appetizer excellent. Hamburger was good, shrimps were a bit dried out, but had a good taste. It was a birthday celebration and nothing was done to acknowledge it by the restaurant. Oh well!!! Would definitely recommend the RH Rooftop. Hope to return in the spring or summer to sit outside.
