    Absolutely amazing experience! Highly recommend chef's selection menu with wine pairing! We tried nightly and grand pairing options - both had great wine choices. Chef's selection menu was delightful for the palate and the eye, just the right amount of food and bounty of flavors.

    Emelina's was perfect for a 15 person business dinner. We were seated indoors (per request) at the back of the restaurant. The drinks were fun (try the flight of pisco sours), there were vegetarian and non-shellfish appetizer and entree options to suit everyone. Main dishes were all delicious, and the portions were large - we were too full to try dessert!

    We were there on a night with street music on Murphy so more crowded than usual and maybe a bit understaffed. They created additional seating for us outside which was great. Food was ok and the menu was eclectic but sufficient to offer many choices with a large wine and beer selection. They looked to have a full bar inside but only served wine and beer which was fine for us. Service was a little slow but there were a couple of large parties that took up time. Overall we were happy with our experience.
