It took me a few years to warm to this place and really Im not sold on the coffee shop / cafe. Its…read moretoo small and chaotic. I do however love the fresh veg and organic selection of sauces etc that as someone with allergies to food items or additives I have a hard time finding the healthy options. I can find it here. I cannot however find it in the food they serve here. Not much is GF including the soup so eating here is problematic. I usually have a coffee while my mum or sister eats and I watch. Fun, not. The owners are nice and friendly. They have a good wine selection and you can even bottle your own from the casket if you wish. I find the wine over priced so not a win here I'm afraid. It is difficult to find parking and it can be crazy at certain hours like breakfast lunch etc so I avoid these times. I'm putting an addition as this summer all prices went up 20 percent. When I asked staff about it they justified it by saying they had no increases in a few year's. When I mentioned the worst recession in history they were dismissive. This does not impress me. You're still sitting in a deli it's not a restaurant yet it is more expensive than one and no waiters.

We had dinner booked for 4 at Emilianos. We had two visitors from Spain and we are senior citizens…read more It was reasonably quiet and we were relaxing enjoying our food and drinking our wine. The owner approached us and requested that we leave out table as it was required. We pointed out the empty tables but to avoid a scene we got up and moved to another table beside the one we were sitting at. We all thought this was UNACCEPTABLE. We asked what compensation there was for this behaviour. There was nothing on offer. I have to say we were shocked and despite sending an email to Emilianos we have not heard a word or any acknowledgement of what the great need was to remove us from our table to accommodate 4 young people. We felt very much used and abused at the attitude. IT WAS NOT BUSY IN THE RESTAURANT. We didn't know and were not made aware that they needed the table but they had no problem ousting us to a nearby table several of which were vacant at that time. I would like an apology from Emilianos for treating us as if we truly did not matter. It is great having lovely food but if you cannot be treated with dignity and respect WHAT IS THE POINT. Our friends from Spain could not believe what was happening that we had to move to accommodate four youngsters. It was an experience that none of us are likely to forget. Emiliano would do well to remember that if you have a good experience you tell approximately 2-3 others but if you have a bad experience it is anyting from 15 up. Being treated as if we did not matter was a truly bad experience. Regards Cummins family

The restaurant itself has a fancy feel right what you walk in, but the menu doesn't feel too fancy in terms of options, and I don't mean that a bad way! Dim lighting, and an elegant feel to the place. They have a bar, but it's quite small. They did ask us if we had a reservation when we walked in, so maybe plan to make one if you intend on going! We got two salads and a pizza. The pizza reminded us of Punch Pizza, a restaurant back in the states. They were great, and honestly like a sense of comfort food. It all came out so fast, I want to say 10 minutes or less. After dinner, we got the Apple Tart and Tiramisu. I'd order the Tiramisu in a heartbeat! So summer and delicious - definitely get that if you have room! Service was great too. When you're done, you stand up and pay by the bar. That's something we've had to adjust to while over here - to not wait for the bill at the table. Overall, 4 out of 5 stars!

The restaurant is lovingly decorated and is cosy and quirky at the same time. The menu sounded delicious all around and I had a hard time making up my mind. Eventually we both settled for the Risotto. The food was very good and the portion was big, definitely a great choice. The wood fired pizza looked amazing too and I would probably give it a go next time. I'm gonna deduct a star, just because I felt that the service wasn't as good as it could have been. We'd probably have ordered a second round of drinks, but the staff seemed overwhelmed with a half-full restaurant and didn't come by to check on our table.

What a check out it's been, my partner started with the Garlic flat bread, Delicious! I myself started with the Prawns in a spicy tomato sauce adorned with tomato & rocket with chilli, incredible. We're about to have our main, my partner has gone for the basic option of Pizza, I will try the Chorizo & chicken breast on a bed of Penne with a spicy sauce! We cannot wait to try more amazing dishes from this establishment in the near future. 100% recommend this restaurant.
