" I brought my family to Ema for dinner last weekend, and it didn't disappoint! The dishes were perfect for sharing, which made for a fun evening. We particularly enjoyed the lamb and the various dips. Everything tasted fresh and well-prepared, complementing the comfortable atmosphere. Service was prompt, and I appreciated the recommendations. We even had the sticky date cake for dessert, which was divine! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved our dinner at Ema! I was thoroughly impressed with the variety of authentic Mediterranean dishes on the menu. We started with the roasted almond and garlic dip, which was a hit. My main dish, the charred eggplant with tahini, was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was lovely—very upscale but still comfortable. The staff was friendly and attentive, making the experience all the more enjoyable. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Ema was mixed. While the setting is certainly inviting with a lovely Mediterranean theme, I found the food to be overpriced for the portion size. The short ribs I ordered were tasty, but the serving was quite small. Additionally, the wait staff seemed overwhelmed even though it wasn't particularly busy. Overall, I'd say it's worth a try for the atmosphere, but be prepared for a potentially long wait if it's busy. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had such a wonderful time at Ema! The place is beautifully decorated and offers a modern twist on traditional Mediterranean fare. We ordered a variety of dishes to share, and everything was not only visually appealing but also delicious. The server was attentive without being intrusive, which added to our enjoyment. We ended the night with the 10-layer honey cake, and it was the perfect way to finish our meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a delightful evening at Ema last night! The atmosphere is modern yet cozy, perfect for a date. The flavors in the hummus were vibrant and really set the tone for the meal. For my main course, I went with the chicken kefta, which was perfectly seasoned and paired wonderfully with the rice. The staff was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. I can't wait to come back and try their desserts next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I don’t usually write reviews, but my recent experience at Ema compelled me. The ambiance transported me to another world—grand and warm yet comfortable. The flavors in the dishes absolutely popped; I had the charred eggplant which was extraordinary. The service was top-notch, my only concern was the limited dessert selection. But I still think this place is a winner! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a great lunch at Ema. The service was spot on, and I appreciated the fresh ingredients in all the dishes we tried. The pita is homemade and was a standout! Dips were good but could use a bit more seasoning to enhance them. Despite the prices being higher than some other places, the quality shines through. Looking forward to returning to try more dishes!
