• Pizzeria • West Village

A typical food love story. A boy meets a girl while eating pizza. He attends culinary school and open’s a pizza restaurant named after the girl. Thus bringing us to Emily! The Manhattan iteration of the Brooklyn based pizzeria centered around a historic brick oven and comforting food. Emily has earned a following for its signature Detroit-style pies and award winning burger. The pizza here is rectangular (not round) and utilizes the "frico" technique, in which cheese is drizzled on the edges of the pie to create a crispy brown exterior. Beyond the main event, the menu extends to include salads and sandwiches, which shouldn't be ignored (think an attention-grabbing burger and a top-notch spicy fried chicken sandwich). Please note, there will be a time limit of 1 hour 30 minutes for guests so we can fairly utilize our limited capacity. Our outdoor dining is enclosed with heaters that will keep you toasty! Thank you :)

We had the most incredible dining experience! From the moment we arrived, it felt like we were transported to another world—a true destination dinner. The atmosphere was enchanting, the service impeccable, and every dish exceeded our expectations. Each bite was a perfect blend of flavors, thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented. It wasn’t just a meal; it was a journey. This is a place where passion for food and hospitality shines through every detail. If you’re looking for an unforgettable dining experience, this is a must-visit. We can’t wait to return!
