Emmaline Restaurant-Houston’s New Gem
As soon as you walk through Emmaline’s doors, you instantly feel a sense of comfort. Realizing quickly that this will be a dining experience unlike any other. A restaurant that will leave a lasting impression and wanting you to come back again.
The Beginning
Emmaline opened its doors in Dec 2017, and has quickly made a name for itself among some of the best restaurants in Houston. With its elegant laid back feel, along with the staff’s genuine hospitality, making it a perfect down to earth restaurant.
The bright and airy, garden themed-inspired, restaurant is laid out in a way where the guest can select several different seating options. Guests can sit at the large open bar located at the heart of the restaurant, or the tables set along side the soaring windows, the sun room at the front of the restaurant, secluded booth tables behind the bar area, or the beautiful outdoor patios that are located on both 1st and 2nd level of the restaurant.
Restaurant Menu
Emmaline is an American restaurant with European influence. Their menu offers plenty of American classics along with mediterranean options. Starters like, asparagus and prosciutto, sea scallop carpaccio, fontina fondu or daily meat and cheese boards are just to name a few.Main dishes like,wood-fired cioppino bianco, steamed mediterranean sea bass, roasted organic chicken, butcher’s cut steak fritti, and agnolotti are some options that are made with seasonal ingredients in their open wood -fire kitchen.
The Difference
What sets Emmaline apart is the high attention paid to the quality of the ingredients along with its wonderful presentation, make it a mouth watering experience. The vintage dining ware also added an elegant touch to the meal. The service was outstanding and the staff was knowledgable in both food and wine. The wine list featured approximately 200 reasonably priced selections all curated by Sam Governale,operating manager of Emmaline. Industry veteran, Sam Governale, shares his vision for the restaurant as “a commitment to our neighbors to be, very simply, a place where we will genuinely care for the well-being of our guests while offering a home-away-from-home experience.”.
My favorite part of Emmaline is that, it’s a restaurant with rich vision to bring people together over a shared meal and drink. A warm an comforting feeling that spreads throughout the staff and into the dining experience.
