I ordered the biscuits and gravy which had a good flavor. The poached eggs were done perfectly. Everything could have been warmer but I was ordering with a party of 5 on a Saturday at 11:30 so perfection is not expected at peak brunch hours. Biscuits could have been less dry. Overall solid with gravy and runny eggs tho.
Breakfast sandwiches were a hit. So was the French toast .
Really great service everyone super friendly and accommodating. Someone got hot chocolate and liked it too. Automatic 20% tips on all checks plus 3% kitchen.
Great place to bring a group for small plates and drinks. Overall the food was pretty solid, the drinks were great, and the service was attentive. I wouldn't recommend getting oysters, improperly shucked and didn't taste the freshest. The small plates were pretty good. The potato beignets were delicious. The foie gras terrine and heirloom carrots were good but nothing spectacular. The standout was the strip loin, which had a great seasoning, perfectly cooked and very tender. The surprise of the evening was the mexican chocolate ice cream; had a great balance of flavor and texture. In the end we had a good experience, and would likely go back to try some more items on the menu.
We came in for dinner on our first night in Boston. The atmosphere is nice and the food and drinks were amazing! We ordered the pomme frites (fries with parmesan and garlic aoli), lobster gnocchi, and the double stack burger. Everything was beyond delicious and the texture of the fries were perfect. The owner, Andy, personally came and chatted with us and was really cool. The rest of the staff were great and personable as well. I highly recommend this spot to anyone in/visiting Boston!
I can’t say enough good things about this place! I had a very large party for a brunch reservation and they did amazingly for both food and service. I got the burger and the shoestring fries were phenomenal. We also shared French toast at the table and everyone loved it. Our waiter was very attentive and even took a fantastic group photo of us afterwards. Would highly recommend!
The feel and vibe is that of a classy bar, but the food is legit. So do not plan to come just for drinks. Definitely at least include snacks of not a full meal. The spaghetti squash cacio e Pepe is so good I lover forgot I wasn’t eating real pasta until I was done and realized that I wasn’t in a carb coma.
We had an awesome experience, enjoying brunch out on the inviting patio. The hostess and server were very friendly and accommodating. The cocktails were delicious and unique. The food was tasty and there was something for everyone on the menu. We spent some time talking to the owner, Andy. We learned about the history of the restaurant and building and it was great to hear his experience of opening The Emory. We are looking forward to voting back!
Our dinner here was phenomenal. Our waiter, Justin, was attentive and gave great recommendations. The owner, Andy, came out to talk with us as well.
We LOVED the ribs, which have been on the menu for a month. We also loved the burger, and we ordered oysters which were delicious. The Northern Hospitality cocktail was AMAZING. As was the pot de crème dessert. Wouldn’t change a thing about what we ordered.
This restaurant is a hidden gem. We will absolutely go back when we’re in town again.
Moved my son to Boston this weekend during a heatwave and were wandering by looking for a great brunch. We saw The Emory was open and wound up having one of the best meals ever! The staff was super welcoming, knowledgeable, accommodating and fun! The owner stopped by to see how everything was and we found out we were the very first group to be seated since the reopening after COVID! The food was fantastic; super fresh and delicately seasoned. We had everything from omelets to oysters and salads topped with lobster and it was all amazing! the quality of all of the food was apparent and they even make their own tea sachets from loose tea when you order; such a great touch! We all loved it so much we were googling the dinner menu while eating brunch. The décor is super cool but comfortable; high ceilings, exposed piping, columns, lots of wood and comfy banquettes. We all can't wait to go back!
It’s so rare and wonderful to have a meal and a drink out and both are actually worth the expense of treating yourself. Restaurants like this are why I try new places. Unique and delicious. I had the duck confit hash and a WINNING Bloody Mary. And no wait at brunch time on a beautiful Saturday. Come here while it’s still a secret!
We were in Boston for one night and could not have been happier to have stumbled upon this place. Though we are not typically into small plates restaurants, we greatly enjoyed every single bite and sip at The Emory. Au jus burger, cod, frites, gnocchi, peach cobbler, and cocktails were all 10/10. The owner was also very friendly and gave us a little treat for our anniversary we were celebrating. Would come right back to this place if we are ever in Boston again.
