One if the worst brunch I ever had in Boston... the pasta didn't have any taste... I ordered a salad with chicken, after 25 min they brought me bowl of lettuce with 3 half roman tomato on it. The dressing was only lemon juice added. The server came and said: "I'm sorry, the chicken shrunken!! It the chicken enough for you? , it was literally a piece of 3x2 inch .... They charge $25 for that salad.. they also charged for bread and butter!!! Without even telling us... one of the worst experience

Service was decent but the amount and quality of food was an absolute joke. I was appalled. Drinks were the best thing about the place!

The Emory is a great find very near the Theater and Downtown areas of Boston located on Beacon Street just off Boston Common and State House. Unique menu with Snacks, Vegetables, Raw, and Land & Sea Sections. Something for everyone in your twosome or group, whether they want a sampling of small plates or an entree. Make the Wagyu burger one of your selections, it was perfectly cooked and delicious. Attractive inside seating options and a patio. Both bartenders will give you a warm Boston welcome.

We’ve lived in Beacon Hill for 5 years, and think this is the best place in the area! Patio seats are great during the summer, service is fantastic, and food is excellent. We’ve brought our families here when they visit Boston, and love coming here just the two of us for a date night!

I am on Tour with Europe's platinum recording artist Thomas Anders- he played Boston last Sunday. For lunch, he had a craving for sushi. Stupid me, I picked the wrong entrance and waited at The Emory. While waiting in what I found a nice but nothing special outdoor area, I had an ice tea, again, totally OK but nothing special.I sat for like 5 mins - was charged $6, wow - and 18% mandatory tip with an extra 3% for the kitchen - which was communicated nowhere on the menu. I guess I must be happy that they did not charge me extra for the ice machine. I find this excessive, and even though it's in spitting distance from my hotel, I will not go again. Not even for an ice tea.

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!

I went to this place by looking at the yelp review. These days yelp review seems to be all made up. This place is not 5 star. Food are not good and interior design is bad. Nothing good about this place

Would absolutely recommend. Our waitress was SUPER nice and even recommended us some secret desserts that aren't on the menu!

Went with my mom for dessert and a cocktail, chill ambiance and the cocktails were amazing. We sat at the kitchen bar and got to watch the chefs work. The hand-crafted desserts were also devine!

Unique food with a nice atmosphere. Enjoyed most of what we had but would not recommend for the non-adventurous diner.

Tips added without our consent. Excellent food but there was almost nothing on the plate. We had the ribs, there were only three poor pieces of meat and nothing to accompany them. Same for the cod. The double stake burger is excellent.Not enough quantity. We left hungry even though we are not big eaters.

I had the lox's and my wife had the eggs bene, both of us enjoyed every bit of it. The staff where all friendly and even the owner Andy stopped by several times for quality control. The vibe is awesome as well, you can feel they care about the little thinks as much as the big things.

Delicious food, amazing staff, and knowledgeable bartenders. I really enjoy the atmosphere of this amazing place. They even have patio dining. The cocktails were fantastic and I would die for the poutine.

My husband and I came to Boston to experience the food scene. After a lot of research we were drawn to The Emory. We entered the stunning space; vaulted ceilings, classy finishings, a stunning bar and still very inviting. We were served by the owner and had such a fun time hearing about his passion for his work. The food was amazing. The ingredients were high quality, the dishes were creative, the sauce work was spectacular, and the presentation and temperature of each plate was perfect. We look forward to our next trip to Boston to return to The Emory!
