    Abigail was a brilliant waitress and made us feel very welcome. Having just arrived in Boston she was the smiling face we needed. She is a real asset to the business and should be paid more.

    Went here for Mother's Day because of ratings of fish n chips. While the fries and beer were good, this was the worst fish I've ever had. It was dry, tough and a mostly breading. Very disappointing. Cool pub but would not recommend fish n chips. Gave it a 2 because the chicken pot pie was good.

    Food was excellent. It was very busy but it was also Marathon Monday so to be somewhat expected.

    Unassuming,relatively inexpensive Irish pub near the Statehouse and Suffolk University. Food is pretty good, prices reasonable, but service is outstanding. A nice cozy atmosphere with a warm. Townie feel. Great Irish coffee in a small glass so it’s not that overwhelming thing with a mound of whipped cream.

    A fun vibe at this quaint Irish pub. There was live music being amplified over speakers and I had to scream at my partner to be heard. Way too loud. The potato skins were yummy. The beet salad was great. My Reuben was dry. Also, we did not appreciate being asked to leave when we weren’t finished yet.

    Emmet’s is excellent! The table next to us was a little noisier than preferred but we still had a good time. Food, drink, and staff all excellent

    Great folks working there, even a lovely Irish woman. Unfortunately, they weren’t terribly attentive to our table (long lags between checking in, waited 20 minutes for a drink refresh... My kid eventually went and asked for the check). The food was awesome for a rainy and cold day. Got the Irish sampler of pot pie, stew and Shepards pie. I may have gained a few pounds in one sitting. Don’t sleep on the fried pickles, they were divine.
