Emma Jayne's Restaurant

I celebrated my birthday with 5 family members last night and had the most amazing time! The restaurant was still decorated for the holidays and felt very festive and bright. We were seated in the dining room to the right of the entrance, and I loved that we could hear the live musician without it drowning out our conversation. Service was perfect. Drew did a fantastic job of guiding us through our first time dining with them. Drinks were refreshed regularly, and he checked on us often to make sure there was nothing we were missing. He also delayed the entrees so we could enjoy our appetizers without the main meals arriving before they were finished. We ordered a variety of dishes and drinks. Other guests reported loving the cocktails. I enjoyed the braised short rib and am looking forward to trying it in the sandwich next time. Crispy chicken tacos (an appetizer thst could easily be a meal) were also delicious. I can't wait to return and try other items; everything looked so good! Also a large patio out back for when warmer weather returns.

This was our first time to Emma Jayne's Restaurant. We were pleasantly pleased with the variety of options on the menu. I got the Mac and Cheese stuffed Meatloaf. I was concerned that the amount of bacon would be too over powerful, but it wasn't. Everyone liked their selections, and when we got home, my wife already announced what she was going to try next when we returned. Andrew was our waitstaff and did an amazing job. He is quite skilled at his occupation. We did not get any wine, but they have a nice list of cocktails and wines to select from.

For our pre-concert dinner date, Emma’s parking lot was full, as was their bar and its seating area. Checking in with the hostess we were immediately seated, reservations work. Cocktails were ordered, an Americano – drink not coffee – was explained and served nearly prefect. Kary made suggestions, gave explanations and took our orders. Our entrees arrived, well plated and hot. When asked we said they were enjoyed, but; more lobster in their pot pie would be nice, and the linguine with excellently prepared clams needed sauce with garlic. Their lemon cake was a tasty dessert split 3 ways. Initially I ordered cannolis with expresso and anisette. But alas, they had no anisette. Overall, Emma Jaynes was pleasant dining experience worth another visit.

First time in the area. FRESH is the best word to describe our meals. Started with French onion soup, calamari, and salad. And meals were linguini with clam sauce and short rib wrapped with mashed potatoes. More rosemary in most of the food for my and my friends' taste but tasted freshly made Busy Saturday night, and we needed to ask a few times for refills on water and drinks. Was planning on a second glass of wine but by the time the server had time to come by I was almost done with my entree. Table still full with our appetizer dishes so hard to navigate and had to ask to clear the table. Just some service touches would have been all 5's. Try the calamari, what a great change from routine marinara sauce!

I had a very nice meal at Emma Jaynes. Very nice inside and outside patio space as well. I would definitely recommend making a reservation due how packed it can get. Before going, I looked over the reviews and came to a decision to get the Chicken Parm. I was not disappointed! It was quite possibly the largest portion I have ever had of any meal I ever got out at a restaurant. It was the size of two meals!! I will definitely come back in the future!

We noticed this place because the parking lot was always full. Our server Drew was knowledgeable and attentive, and (all joking aside) managed a delightful service for us and our family from out of town. The food was really quite a treat! A woman was raving about her leftover seafood risotto as we were entering, so we enjoyed one of those along with the lobster ravioli and a *crisp* southern fried chicken (mm mm good) Desert was a banana's foster cheesecake. Great NA drinks from a full bar. Must be seen to be believed.
