Loved our first time at Ema. We sat on the patio with our adult children and two grandchildren, and it was perfect. Our server, Dan, was amazing. All of the wait staff were attentive and friendly. We shared the eggplant spread and whipped feta spread. We also shared the California chopped salad, chicken kebabs, green falafel, and sweet potato latkes. They also got a chicken Shawarma bowl. Our water glasses were kept full and it was a perfect lunch. read more

Both my parnter and I are are not fans of Aba so we were reluctant to come to Ema as it is the sister restaruant. We came here for a birthday lunch, despite out better judgement, and I am so HAPPY that we did! We ended up having a wonderful time! We ordered a few items including the corn hummus, beet horseradsih spread, the crudo, mushroom escargot, and blistered green beans. While this might not seem like enough food, it was plenty. My personal favorites were green beans and dips (hummus & spread) but the pita was also a star! While I enjoyed the mushroom escargot, it was slightly off putting as a vegetarian (but that is a personal dislike). We also tried a few of their drinks which were very refreshing. There were a few negatives that we experienced but I am willing to give them a pass as they opened very recently. Some of these negatives include: - While we had a reservation, it still took us about 30m to be seated on a Wednesday at noon! - We were told that the order would be spread out into courses but everything arrived at once. Our server was really apologetic about this and offered to send some stuff back but it just didn't make senese. - They were out of a few things that we tried to order Overall, much better experience than Ema read more

Given that this is by the same genius minds of Aba, I had to try it. The decor is insanely cute and makes you think you're in Greece but in the middle of the domain. I had my little one, and they happily stored my stroller away while we dined. They have both a high chair and a booster, which as a mom of a little one, I truly appreciate. We tried the following: Raw octopus: I would have liked this to be a little more tangy but overall it was great. California chopped: This was very fresh and zesty. White cheddar labneh: The combination of crunch, sweet, and tangy is a chef's kiss. Short rib Mushroom "escargot": I'm obsessed with this dish. I love escargot but never thought I would love the mushroom version as much. Melon & avocado salad: I was expecting the presentation of this to be a little nicer and the flavors but it was okay. Faroe Island Salmon: Loved this main dish but without the zhoug on the side it would be a very typical grilled salmon dish with basmati rice. So I wouldn't get this next time. Slow-braised short rib - this was flavorful but I'm not a short rib girl so I didn't care for it. Service was great and I do love that they have a QR code on the tables where you can pay the bill and split it as well. Makes it so easy. Will for sure go back and try other menu items & brunch on the weekend. read more

YES Finally we have "Aba" up north! I'm a huge fan of their sister restaurant, but I hate that you have to go all the way to SoCo and fight for parking to eat there. Ema is probably not as well known because it was relatively easy to get a reservation, but I know Aba is notoriously booked even years after their initial opening. Our server described Ema as the "less-meat forward" version of Aba, and I'd say that's true. The menu is pretty similar, and if you've been to Aba, you'll even recognize a lot of the same dishes. I will say that's true out of the 6-7 plates that we got, I really was not a fan of two of them. DO NOT get the chicken Caesar wrap. It's quite possibly the worst chicken Caesar salad wrap I've ever had, and it looks so tiny for almost $23 with tax. There's hardly any flavor or sauce, and it's so small that the wrap folds over itself three times. I also do not recommend the falafel. It was really dry and hard to chew. However, Ema does have all of my favorites from Aba, and you can't go wrong with their (pretty much unlimited) pita bread and dips. The vibe and ambience are top notch, and our server was excellent. I'd say to be careful about what mains you get, but other that, it was a great experience and I will certainly be back again! read more

I was really excited to try this place since I like Aba, and having something similar in the Domain sounded great. The ambiance is very good--lively and great for a night out. Service was also solid. Definitely make a reservation, as it gets busy. Coming to the food, it was a bit of a mixed experience, especially for vegetarians. The hummus with fresh pita bread was really good, but the Brussels sprouts salad was a miss. The falafel felt overcooked, and the grilled cauliflower was just okay. Portion sizes also felt a bit small for the price. On the non-veg side, the salmon was good. Overall, great vibe and service, but the vegetarian options and portion sizes didn't quite meet expectations. read more

Amazing food. The service was spot on. We went for a lunch before we left town. Great cocktails as well. I absolutely recommend

Let me start off by saying what a beautiful restaurant, vibrant, clean, modern even down to the decor and styling of the restrooms it's all so picture perfect. They really hit the interior and exterior out of the park. It all flows so well and the outside seating is going to have a major upgrade when the new bar is ready. Fake plants real plants who cares it's vibrant and green and energizing just to sit in this place, every corner of this restaurant is Instagram worthy. People chattering the clinking of glasses as people toast their equally picturesque cocktails along with sounds of shakers as fresh drinks are mixed at the bar just sets the stage for the final product which is the food. The staff wears white shirts , white shoes tan pants, which when put all together transports you to a vacation destination of sorts and lets you know they really thought of every aspect of the experience. It's not a coincidence or just a random detail there is a genuine really intelligent person behind the planning and it shows they aren't new to the game. We all know this is the sister company to Aba which is a hit and I'm so glad to have this up north in the domain closer to where I live. I know I'm supposed to be talking about the food and yet how can I pass up an opportunity to explain in detail how much I appreciate great design. I absolutely loved the garlic and almond spread. Such complex flavor from simple ingredients goes to show in the right culinary hands sky is the limit for creativity. Of course, we also had to have the sweet potato latkes, just like as described by other yelp reviews, they were a little bit on the crisp side, some call it burnt I wouldn't go that far because I really did appreciate that they were not soggy and that they were well seasoned. The mushroom escargot was good and had a nice kick of spice, the homemade Stracciatella which we opted to top with green falafel was decent. I'd say out of all the appetizers the Stracciatella needed a little bit more TLC I'm not asking to change the recipe I'd simply mention even with the tomatoes and the vinegar oil dressed croutons it still needed a little bit more acidity and seasoning. Maybe if they put more pesto and a tiny bit more vinegar it would have felt more complete otherwise a great choice if you want something on the more refreshing side that will fill up a larger group. My wife ordered the SHAWARMA-SPICED CHICKEN BOWL with turmeric rice, avocado and preserved lemon, let me tell you it was outstanding. The rice was so flavorful and paired with everything else in the dish including the grilled chicken it couldn't have been made any better. If you're going for lunch and are eating alone and don't necessarily want a bunch of small plates by all means try this. We also ordered SPICY BRISKET KEFTA' that is also not it the photo because the food was never brought out. I asked if the waitress had maybe forgot to bring it and was told it was just taking longer but this was after my wife and I slowly shared her chicken shawarma bowl waiting for my entrée to arrive. If I hadn't asked it would have never been remembered. I told our waitress we no longer wanted the dish and she still ran to the back and was like oh it's right here. I mean 25 minutes later wasn't JUST taking a bit long it was more like either it never got rang up or sat in the back and never brought out. She did box it up for us and the GM Raul Moreno came to speak with us and apologized for the mistake. What a genuine and sweet guy, he was so pleasant when he came to speak with us. Raul was genuinely interested in our experience and assured us that they are still working the kinks out. What a wonderful way to treat customers and talk to people and not see people as obstacles or just a number treat every customer kindly and seeing things from their perspective goes a long way. You can tell he's been doing this for a long time. What an amazing guy. Of course this is a new restaurant and even being a sister company to a Aba there's always going to be hiccups. I don't see the minor issues that I experienced as ongoing because of how they were handled. In other words, it's going to be a hit ( not that I'm the determining factor), especially if they can continue the customer service. Special shout out to the super sweet hostess standing behind the guy with the backpack in my entryway photo who has amazing customer service. We saw her walking around the whole building inside out, looking for people who had reservations and making sure that they got their table. I also saw her apologizing for a long wait times, directing people to the bar for drinks and asking people how their day was which is the first impression you get as a customer and great for business. If you've never been to the Domain or the rest of Austin at that, I will say if you see a parking anywhere, just take it chances are you will never find one ever again haha. read more

Ema is owned by Top Chef alum, C.J. Jacobson. He also owns Aba, which means "father" in Hebrew. Ema means "mother" in Hebrew. His style is Israeli inspired as he used to live in Israel where he briefly played professional volleyball. I was able to get a table without a wait. Both times I walked in between 2 pm - 3 pm on a weekday. The food was perfect the first time I went. I ordered the same sweet corn hummus, sweet potato latkes and vegan coconut cremeux, the second time. They have good customer service. The second time, the sweet potato latkes tasted burnt as they were overcooked. They comped the latkes. They are very accommodating to gluten allergies. They served gluten free pita chips with the hummus and fried the latkes separately. I plan on frequenting Ema regularly so I downloaded the Lettuce Eats app. For every $150 spent, you will receive a $10 reward toward either Aba or Ema. read more

Our anniversary dinner at Ema was truly special! We loved being seated in the beautiful backyard with our dog. The spicy whipped feta with fresh veggies was a standout appetizer, and everything started off great. Our entrees came out at room temperature, and while I let it go, my husband sent his back. The timing got a little off after that, but the chef came out personally, gave a sincere apology, and comped our entire bill, what a lovely surprise! The remade trenne pasta ended up being my husband's favorite pasta ever, so it all worked out. We ended the night with the 10-layer honey cake and wow, light, fluffy, and one of the best desserts we've had. The chef even gave us his card and invited us to email him directly for our next visit to ensure a seamless experience. That kind of care really goes a long way. We'll definitely be back! read more

If you like Aba, there's no doubt you'll like its sister restaurant. I went on opening day and want to point out that even on the first day, the service is very similar and comparable to Aba. Any bumps in the journey were not enough to disagree with on a first day. I had to wait about 10-15 minutes for my reserved table, but nothing to out of the ordinary. I checked the day before and the first few days were all booked out, so I came in with an understanding that they were working on overdrive mode. Regardless, service was good and I like the textiles they wear. I saw the second shift team gather outside of the restaurant for a run down and it's clear they have a well-oiled machine inherited from their ever-so-popular sister restaurant. I have no doubt that Ema will be the same way. As for food, I enjoyed it all! You order everything at the start so they can stagger it out from the beginning. Started out with the octopus carpaccio, it was delicious and had a good difference in textures. One of the favorites that I had that lunch was the corn hummus. Aba is known for their hummus so I excited to try this one since I love corn (lol). It might even be one of my favorite hummus I've ever tried! Pita is unlimited as well and properly flavored and spiced. The must-try dish is the mushroom escargot. I had a bad experience with escargot in Austin, so I was excited to try this version that doesn't have actual snails. It was beautifully textured and flavored with bits of spice from the calabrian chilis and the acidity of the lime. The rest of what we picked seemed great, so I wouldn't say there's anything to avoid. Even though I also had a pretty innocuous chicken caesar wrap, I was enjoying every bit of it! We did have a brussel sprout and apple salad be late, but it also stores pretty well in the fridge in case you want to bring it home. Overall, you can bet Ema is here to stay. We need more staples in the Domain area, and I'm happy that Ema has made a great mark already. read more

As a big fan of Aba I am not surprised by how beautiful and delicious Ema is! The staff is very welcoming and helpful. The slight differences in menu options are worth the different trip. Spicy feta isn't too spicy if you like heavy spice but the flavor is great! I prefer the slow cheetah & tan lines drinks (not similar to the thirst trap- Ema's is tequila based). They didn't have the most popular Lamb Ragu hummus which was disappointing. The chicken Caesar wasn't my favorite but the shrimp kebab was fantastic! (Also purse hooks on every table... amazing detail!) Definitely can't pick Aba over Ema or vice versa, I'll just have to go to both! read more

Do NOT come here. Just don't. It's already hard to get into and I don't need it to be worse! Snuck in today after three prior tries and was lucky enough to snag a single seat at the outside bar. Great bartenders, fun and friendly vibe. Everyone was enjoying their food and ogling everybody else's! Tried a delicious Greek white wine. (7.5/10) Also had the mushroom escargot and spicy whipped feta. The escargot was okay. The bartender said it was his favorite thing ever and it didn't live up to that, but was okay. It was tasty but ended up being a lot of dry breadcrumbs, which I then sprinkled on the whipped feta. Probably wouldn't get this again. (6/10) The spicy whipped feta was phenomenal. It was topped with pistachios, pomegranate, fresh dill and some spicy topping. Just delicious. (10/10) My neighbors were having the honey cake and absolutely raving about it so I got a slice to go, as well as a shawarma bowl for my son. The slice of cake was enormous and I had to put it in two boxes. The shawarma bowl however was a teeny portion - looks like half a breast and a few tomatoes. Overall I really like the place. The portions are small and pricey but the flavors are great and the vibe is lovely. read more

Came here during their opening week. Loved the vibe of the restaurant and im so glad they opened up here at the Domain. I love Aba but it has always been a bit out of the way for me since im rarely in that area. Cocktails were amazing and the food was so good. I loved the hamachi with lychee and coconut cream. The whipped feta was chef's kiss. Our server was very attentive and she made the dining experience even better. Make sure you book your table in advance i overheard the hostess saying the wait was over 1.5 hours without reservations. read more

I had high hopes for this one. The ambiance is great, beautiful! The service was okay. Our waitress spoke very fast, like she was very busy. We went during lunch, it was not super crowded. The whipped feta and brussel sprouts are amazing! The crispy potatoes were really dry and hard to eat. I would not get them again. I did not care for the snapper crudo. The shawarma chicken bowl was not very flavorful. read more

This was our 1st visit, and we were so very excited. For context, it wasn't easy to obtain a reservation but we had luck with 3 weeks out. The restaurant is beautiful. The vibe they have cultivated is both inviting and grounded. Unfortunately that was the highlight of our experience. The staff were friendly and drinks were good. My husband loved the old fashioned and the lychee margarita was very tasty. The food was unfortunately underwhelming. We ordered the classic hummus, and it was lacking in taste. Not to mention the portion size for the price is most definitely not aligned. I have a mushroom allergy and kindly asked the waitress to inform the kitchen, and please be mindful of mushrooms by my food. We ordered the crispy potatoes, sweet potato latkes, and Brussels sprouts for the table, only for the waitress to inform me I could not in fact eat any of it because mushrooms were cooked in the same oil they were. Her suggestion, the Greek salad is really good. FYI, it was not. The tomatoes were past their prime and the cucumbers were cut to the size of hockey pucks. It was so haphazardly thrown together it was sad. This was so disappointing. The fact that they have no plan in place to accommodate an allergy because they cross contaminate the oil is perplexing. I'm not sure how this is okay. I suppose I am extremely thankful they informed me, avoided me having an allergic reaction right at the table. Small blessings I suppose. It saddens me to say this place is overhyped. The food is mediocre and the price high for what you actually get. read more

WOWWWW this meal was one of my favorite in Austin. everything felt soo perfect, especially the whipped feta. salmon kebab was so soft and tender it was an amazing meal. the only downside to this was that we were seated outside, so some of the pollen would fall in our food and we'd have to pick it out. i'd sit inside for anyone thinking about going read more

ema is aba's sister restaurant, and they also have a location in Chicago which is highly rated! we made a reservation for 12:30 right when they opened, and I'm so thankful we did bc they were packed to the brim with a waiting list. if you're waiting for your party to get there, there's a cute little nook for you to sit at. the decor of the place is gorgeous and bright. love all the colors! the servers are attentive and lovely we started off with the spicy whipped feta which may have been the best part of the meal. airy, creamy, with a little spice coupled with the pomegranate seeds and fluffy pita mmm top tier. the octopus carpaccio was interesting with the apricot honey!! wouldn't have thought of that combo but it works the brussel sprouts and honey crisp apple salad was underwhelming, it tasted like a salad kit you could buy. however it was aesthetic the crispy potatoes were indeed crispy and a great shareable plate. the spicy brisket kefta was so tender and moist!! delicious with the tamarind barbecue. everyone wished me a happy birthday and they brought out a frozen greek yogurt with w candle! lovely service overall worth a visit read more

I was so excited to have Ema open in the Domain! With its sibling restaurant being so popular but so much further south, I knew this place would be a hit. The interior is absolutely stunning. We sat under the tree and it was so beautifully lit! We had a great server who helped with recommendations for the table. I had come once before just for drinks and the bartender was also great, super friendly and chatty! All of the food we got was delicious, I especially loved the Shrimp Kebab, and was excited to see it on the menu, as it's not an offering at Aba. Unfortunately when we ordered takeout, I felt like the portions were smaller and the food didn't seem as fresh, despite being there to pick it up before it was even ready. I suppose that is to be expected with takeout though, so I can't be too upset about it. Overall, I would recommend eating in, the patio looks beautiful, though I have not been. It would be a great date night or special occasion dinner! read more

We were really looking forward to trying Ema, especially given its connection to Aba, but unfortunately the experience fell short. Despite having reservations, we waited about 15 minutes for our table. Service timing throughout the meal was off--our dishes didn't come out together, and my son's chicken entrée arrived nearly 15 minutes after the rest of the table. His tzatziki sauce was also forgotten and didn't arrive until after we had finished eating, at which point his food was cold. My beef kebab was also disappointing, as it came without rice--just a small portion of undercooked cabbage and a couple of onions--which was not appetizing. And the beef was bland with no flavour. Overall, the experience didn't meet expectations, especially compared to Aba. Hoping this was just an off night. So no more eating here. read more

Delicious as expected !! Must try their dips and braised beef. Service was great , went during lunch time and the wait wasn't too long!

From the moment we walked into Ema, it felt like stepping into a different world. The interior is absolutely stunning warm, inviting, and effortlessly transportive. It's the kind of space that instantly sets the tone for a memorable dining experience. We were able to snag an afternoon dinner reservation, which was perfect, and every single dish exceeded expectations. The Mediterranean flavors were fresh, bold, and beautifully executed. Highlights included the crispy wild mushrooms, white cheddar labneh, and my personal favorite the spicy whipped feta (I'm still thinking about it). What truly elevated the experience, though, was the service. Richard, our server, was phenomenal, friendly, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. His wine pairing recommendations were spot-on and genuinely enhanced the meal. You could tell he really cares about the guest experience, and it made all the difference. Richard, kudos to you, my friend it was such a pleasure being taken care of by you. A huge shoutout as well to Aaron, the manager during our visit. He took the time to stop by our table, check in on us, and ensure everything was perfect. His presence was warm and genuine, and it really reinforced the level of hospitality Ema delivers. Amazing food, impeccable service, and a beautiful atmosphere this was an all-around stellar dining experience. Can't wait to come back. Hopefully they'll have a happy hour. The bar is beautiful. A great place to stop by after work to get a drink or two. read more

Nice landscaping. Shame about the food. Took over half an hour to get my Caesar salad with grilled shrimp and when it arrived it was less than fresh romaine topped with a couple almonds and shrimp that had been cooked to the texture of cardboard, yet somehow also cold. My companion's salad just never arrived. The restaurant wasn't busy, so I don't know what happened to make the food take so long.

I went to Aba once before and thought it was fine, nothing too spectacular nor memorable, but I saw they opened up Ema so I wanted to give it a shot. Don't get me wrong: nothing bad about Aba just not amazing or noteworthy in my opinion. As for Ema, firstly, it is a beautiful location with a nice ambiance. Decorated with a resort like vibe. That is something I appreciate about Aba and Ema. Very nice spot to eat. The service was good too, we got our food promptly. - Pita: When you order a spread you get their yummy pita bread! Seasoned well, decent chew factor. I enjoyed how it was seasoned. And you can ask for more if you run out. - Sweet corn hummus: I liked this one. It takes a basic hummus base and adds sweet corn on top adding sweetness and a bit of crunch. The hummus itself is creamy but not too smooth, which in no way is a bad thing, just a note. There is also aleppo pepper adding that pop of red to the dish. Presentation is amazing. No, it's not spicy, kind of wish they did put a bit of spice- that would be interesting. - Chicken Kabob: It's a good chicken kabob, but again nothing too spectacular. Probably wouldn't get this one again - Sweet Potato Latkes: My favorite dish of the night. Crispy fried edges, kind of like a sweet potato hash brown. You get a side of jalapeno crema that is creamy and smooth. Overall, Ema is pretty similar to Aba. Nothing too stand-out ish but it is good. I'd come back to try other hummus/spreads. read more

I've now been to Ema seven times, and the same issue keeps happening: the host stand is completely disorganized when it comes to seating. Right now, the process is confusing and inconsistent. You first wait in a long line just to put your name in, then move to a smaller waiting area. When you get the "your table is ready" text, it's unclear what to do next--some people get back in line, while others walk straight to the front. This leads to people cutting, frustration, and a lot of confusion. There's almost always a chaotic back-and-forth between the host and the person being seated trying to figure out which table is theirs. It feels disorganized every time and takes away from the overall experience. I genuinely enjoy the food and the overall vibe, which is why I keep coming back, but the front-of-house experience needs serious improvement. A simple, clearly communicated system for how to approach the host stand would make a huge difference. read more
