    The Founders
    Carla H.

    Love this place! It is a cute, casual, and delicious restaurant nestled on third Avenue in the upper east side. vibes are always good and service is always good. For the food: Le Big Matt - the burger is really good. I think it lives up to the hype actually.... I've heard the one at Emily is just as good, so I gotta go try it as it is their sister restaurant I believe. While it is definitely on the pricey side, it doesn't feel significantly worse than a lot of other burgers in the city, given the quality and the size. as a bonus, it comes with great waffle fries. Pizza - while this is technically their main thing, I think a lot of people actually go for the burger. That being said, the pizza is great. This time, I got the "Founders", but I've tried a couple other ones and they are all fantastic. The trick is really to get their lunch special; it's a great deal. The pizza freezes and reheat really well if you have leftovers, but you might not as they are good and aren't actually that large, so you might just finish it all. Totally worth a visit if you're uptown or want a good thick crust pizza and burger without all the fuss!

    Was looking for a spot in the neighborhood for dinner after a concert in Central Park. I had heard from several people that Emmy Squared had great gluten-free pizza and it did not disappoint! Great cocktails also. Larger space than expected, plenty of seats inside. Friendly and helpfull staff. There were moments where they were very busy though so it took a little while to get someone's attention in those moments.

    Love the ambiance and service. I usually make a reservation ahead of time to get seated easily. They are accommodating with children and also have a baby changing table in the bathroom. I love their lemon pepper wings with one of their pizzas. All of their pizza options are tasty. Great spot!

    VIP Pizza

    A group of us 4 Arrived at 4:30 to an empty restaurant. Hot honey pizza- meh not a fan of the honey but friends wanted it. Actually the burrata cheese was very good and balanced the taste fairly. VIP - recommended by waiter. When it came out he likened it to a Christmas tree because of the green and red sauces - Beautiful. And delicious. All 3 sauces are my favorite. The peppers made it the cherry on top. Can't believe I'm saying this for such expensive pizza but I would come back to try the others.

    We have been here many times. Ordered takeout many times. It seems to be going downhill. The chicken nuggets, which I raved about have not been good since that one time. The ones they served to us were likely sitting under a heat lamp for a while. It was more batter than chicken, and it seemed re-fried because they got cold. The chicken in the chicken parm sandwich was so dry, I would not eat that again. It was definitely not freshly cooked. The burger bun was way too small for the burger and fell apart. There was not much meat there. They compensate for this tiny burger by giving you half a try of cold fries. For the amount they charge on this food, it is really disappointing. Basically, this is fast food at dining in prices. I am not returning anymore.

    12 dollar Caesar Salad

    Pizza is alright but for price it's kind of hilarious. Got a salad for 12 dollars and probably feeds a 2 year old. Insane to price 7 pieces of lettuce for 12 bucks but go off.

    This is the $20 Caesar salad chopped with chicken

    I ordered from here one of the items was a Chopped Caesar salad with crispy chicken. It came I chopped in a little box with 10 pieces of shredded roaming, lettuce, dressing, cheese, and little plastic on top of the lettuce plastic containers. The hard chicken wasn't another little box sliced into five strips. It was rockhard I would not recommend ordering from here. Beware what they show you is not what it looks like when you get it.

    We came here for dinner to meet up with our friends and I'm so glad we did. Everything we ordered was delicious - from the cheese sticks to the pizzas to our sangria! Our service was attentive and accommodating with allergies. Plus it was lively and warm here to help escape from the evening chill.

    This is a nice little spot for a weekday lunch in the UES. We had made a reservation, but could have got a table easily as it wasn't busy late on a Friday lunchtime. The staff is super friendly and helpful, guiding us to the lunch menu with smaller portions and giving great advice. Would definitely return when it's a little more bustling. Bathrooms are down steep steps so patrons with accessibility needs may need to check before booking.

    Pricey but great food! The pizza was small but filling and the pesto garlic cheese sticks are so delicious!

    Hey you can't expect a takeout burger and fries to look "wow". But the burger flavor was delicious. I ordered the Le Big Matt + Fries. I had a taste of the plain burger with nothing on it and one with sauce. Both were delicious - it's the grass fed beef. As for the fries it was just ok. So you get what you pay for in it's quality.

    Vodka Pizza
    Oliver L.

    What a pleasure it was to try Emmy Squared in person! I have gotten the pizza delivered and it's delicious, so I knew going in person would be a taste treat! My wife and I started off with the ceaser salad which could feed 4 and was everything you crave for a Caesar salad. We then split the Spicy Chicken sandwhich which was plentiful with taste if you could handle the burn of the heat after! I would only recommend notching the heat level down a smidge so it doesn't make me feel like I'm battling while enjoying it! We than got into their delicious vodka square which was just beautifully done perfect crisp all around accompanied by a delicious vodka sauce it's definitely a must try square slice! For dessert we had the skillet brownie with ice cream which was very nice. I must also compliment the service as the food came out with impeccable timing from when we finished each course.

    The pizza was SO good but the price for the size was a little pricey. Other than the that I think this place was really good.

    Getting a reservation here is very hard. One just popped up in my Resy app for lunch though, so I…read morewent for it. It was my first time here although, it has been around for ages. The front part where you first walk in is the bar area with some tables. This restaurant is on the darker side and brings you back in time. Once you walk in further that is where the main dinning room is. This is also on the darker side as you can maybe tell by my photos. The wall paper and art around the restaurant is cool and there are some monkey statues around the restaurant. I was seated in a corner table in a booth area that seemed to be for at least 2-3 people. I thought for sure they would seat me at the bar area. I had a wonderful waitress whose name I think was Taylor but I could be wrong. I ordered the Monkey bread to start off with. It's a very buttery bread with truffle and parm cheese on top. I have alot of allergies and I was searching online if I could even have truffles as I have a nut allergy. So, I asked the waitress and she said she had never heard this. But, she came back to me and told me that White truffle grows near or like over where Almonds grow from but that, they don't use white truffle so I was all good. Well, this was super nice of her to check for me. I had no idea she was going to do this. She said the restaurant has strict protocols when it comes to food allergies. I then got for my main dish the double cheese burger with onions and pickles. To drink I had the cucumber martini. WOW everything was pretty darn good!! I passed on dessert. If you get a chance or a reservation pops up in your resy to go, even if it is for lunch..I highly say go for it.

    From the moment we sat down, the service set the tone for the entire experience. Our server was…read moreincredibly warm, upbeat, and full of energy--one of those people who genuinely elevates a meal. I only wish I could remember her name because she deserves the recognition. We started with drinks, and mine ended up being a surprise standout. I ordered the coconut margarita, slightly hesitant since I'm not usually a margarita fan--but it completely won me over. It struck a perfect balance and leaned just enough into the coconut to make it feel unique without being overpowering. My sister-in-law, who's pregnant, had a non-alcoholic Ritual margarita and loved it, noting how convincingly it mimicked the real thing. Since we were sharing, we got to try a good mix of the menu. The monkey bread came first--definitely a splurge at $34, but it's one of those fun, indulgent starters that's worth ordering at least once. While I wouldn't call it the best bread I've ever had, I also wouldn't change anything about it. The crab rangoon was another highlight. Having it made with real crab made a noticeable difference, and the dipping sauces complemented it really well. It felt like a more elevated take on something familiar. For mains, the French dip was a hit. The meat was incredibly tender, the bread had that ideal crusty exterior, and the au jus was packed with flavor--I was very glad I ordered extra. It pulled the whole dish together. We also tried the smoked whitefish Caesar, which was the only dish that didn't quite land for me. It was a well-made, fresh salad, but the smoked fish flavor was a bit overpowering and took over the balance of the dish. Even though we were too full for dessert, the restaurant surprised us with a scoop of strawberry ice cream with chocolate sauce to celebrate my sister-in-law's babymoon. It ended up being one of the most memorable bites of the meal--we're still talking about how good that ice cream was. We arrived right at 11:45, and by the time we left, the place was absolutely buzzing. It's clearly a popular spot, and for good reason. Between the lively atmosphere, strong service, and well-executed food, I'd highly recommend making a reservation if you can.
