About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Charming
Hot spot

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 :)

One of my absolute favorite places to take people in New York City. Food was phenomenal. Service was strong. Tables are slightly too small, but nobody’s perfect.

The food was really phenomenal. However our waitress started out amazing but this disappeared never to be seen again to offer another drink or check in or deliver our check which was strange and not super satisfying. The burger was worth the trip - no one lied about that!

2nd time there, and 2nd time waiters are just rude. This 2nd time (reservation was at 7pm): - Get in the restaurant and we get a warning: you have the table for 90', after that get up and leave - They come to get drinks, we ask for an appetizer and they say no, no appetizers, we have to order all at once - Then they kept coming to see if we were done - At 8.15pm, 15' before the curfew... the waiter says we can stay more, that the reservation cancelled. - 8.30pm, another waiter comes and says they have a walk-in, that we need to leave the table. Yes, the burger is good, but just go to Au Cheval for better quality and same price with nice waiters
