Usually, it's a great spot to go. Beer was excellent. Server friendly. However, We arrived mid afternoon, not prime meal time. Multiple servers walked by without acknowledging (even glancing our way) when we arrived and sat down at a table in the bar area. Meal was not sequenced with salad followed by entre. All arrived at once. Wife's beef wellington filet was blue, not medium rare. My beef filet steak and her wellington cut were tougher than typical tenderloin would be, quality for price not there. Sorry, not their best effort. Maybe stick to burgers next time.

The food was okay, nothing special. I think they might be short staffed-seeing how ONE waiter was taking care of one side of the restaurant 8+ tables.Our drinks alone took for ever to get to us, we asked for water as well and never got any.We quickly placed our order since the drinks took a while and we didn’t want to run into the same issue with our food.Our food came out in 30 minutes and was not hot..we ordered the shrimp pasta (x2) and it was very salty and cold the cheese at the top was not melted just a blob of cheese.My son had a wings and they were okay again nothing special.Will probably pass this place we had came during the summer last year and had a good experience but this place has changed a lot.

I went to Emmett's for lunch and left feeling scammed. While the exterior of the restaurant is pleasant and parking is good, the rest of my experience was sub-par at best. I ordered the lunch special "half-sandwich and salad" with an order of wings. The reuben sandwich was cold and soggy with very little meat and way too much sauce. The salad consisted of wilted lettuce, one thin slice of tomato and an abundance of rock hard croutons. The wings were mostly gummy batter and were overly salted and barely eatable. My wife had the shrimp pasta which was void of shrimp and comprised mostly of sauce and over cooked linguine. To cap things off I ordered a club soda and it tasted contaminated with a strong odor and sour taste. Lastly, our waiter appeared either ill or hungover and cleared his throat and coughed frequently while serving us. Going out to eat has become a joke and Emmett's poor food quality and service with above average pricing assures I will never be returning.Tip to owner(s): Take a trip overseas and learn how a good restaurant operates. Pubs in the UK consistently serve good food at reasonable prices. Bistros in France offer simple and high quality food; even the convenience stores in Japan offer better and fresher sandwiches at a fraction of the cost.

Food is just okay. They service and atmosphere are nice. Outside of that, nothing special. I might give it another shot and see if my opinion changes.

Atmosphere: First impressions are weathered wooden entrance doors and a very old, dirty Oriental rug (which doesn’t go with the lodge-y design/animal head by indoor bar fireplace). Once inside, the same perspective exists with worn hostess counter and wood decor. Wood in dire need of some basic stain and refinishing, plus a new and clean modern or rustic rug.Food: Good baked French onion soup as a start, but Smokehouse burger came without expected fries. Waiter assumed the soup was a substitution for fries. Water came very late, after the entrees! Beef tip risotto was too soup-y with gravy and some meat pieces had undesirable fat. Cut-up asparagus mixed in. Lacked a nice visual presentation, and notably, you eat with your eyes first.Service: Slow when it was slow. Perhaps, a case of understaffing. Thirsty for water and no French fries. Very unsatisfied.

Attended half price burger Monday! Good food, bad service. Will probably eat here in the future, but it will be awhile.

Skylar was a pleasant distraction while I waited for the Metra train. Oh, and the cocktail was pretty good, too.

My burger was great! The prime rib sandwich was burnt with a few thin pieces. The plate was skimpy bc we ordered a side of fruit. It was a sad plate. The waiter never checked on how our drinks or food were. We had to ask another staff person to have him deliver our bill.

A decent Octoberfest beer, but Emmett's is a bit pricey for most of it's menu items. We also had a bunch of minor issues with the food which you wouldn't expect even at a lower price point. Burger overdone (substantially burnt/charred), sandwich missing it's condiments, pork overdone and chewy, chips unsalted and bland. Good variety of gluten free options though.Dietary restrictions: Separate Gluten-free menu

Excellent beef tip risotto and shrimp pasta with great Mad King microbrew. Attentive service and nice environment.
