This waterfront setting is really nice both inside and on the deck. I have been here several times for dinner or brunch. Today I was on the deck for happy hour. And I was surprised what a nice outdoor covered deck Emory's had. The hostess and wait staff were especially nice to make room for us on a busy deck, I had a hamburger with fries. Both were good. I especially loved the fries as they were so yummy. I know I will be back to Emory's again soon. read more

Emory's On Silver Lake - Steakhouses Near Me - Everett, Washington

Location Ambience Service Food TLDR: Beautiful location with a great drink selection. The food quality does not match the price so this should be a stop for a drink before dinner elsewhere. Such potential for this beautifully situated restaurant, right on Silver Lake, with a patio over looking the water and perfect sunset viewing spot and yet, such a disappointment. We made a reservation for seven and arrived a little early. We were told our table wasn't ready so we opted to grab a drink at the bar while we waited. As we sat down, a server handed over menus and my fiance said oh! Thanks but we were just going to order drinks. The server took the menus and walked away. We waited ten minutes and no one greeted us, offered a drink or even looked our way. Thankfully the hostess came over and said our table was ready. We sat on the patio with a beautiful view. The patio was busy on a Friday and the bill from the previous party was still on the table. The waitress came over within five minutes to grab drink orders but left the bill on the table. So when she brought back the drinks, we gave the previous check to her. She took our order for an appetizer- the salmon poke special- and our dinner orders- two shrimp Louie salads and a side of French fries. We waited fifteen to twenty minutes before it became evident she forgot about the appetizer. When she delivered the poke to the table, she apologized for the wait, wished us a good meal and was just about to walk away when an additional server came with our dinner entrees. There was an attempt to smooth it over by saying oh! I tried to stagger it. At least your entrees are already cold! **giggle** please enjoy your meal. I am not one to snub food and I was hungry enough to eat anything. However, the appetizer presentation...lacked presentation. It was a poor pile of slaw and cooked salmon with crispy wonton bits. We ate the salmon and then moved on to the entrees. My Louie salad had brown and wilted lettuce mixed in. For the price of the salad, I would expect better quality. The French fries were commercial fries- nothing to write home about but honestly the best part of the meal. I was extremely disappointed with my experience and still try to look on the bright side- my blood orange mule was good and the French fries shared on the patio saved the night. In the future, I know Emory's will be a good spot to enjoy a drink and fries for a patio sunset view after a bike ride or a paddle on the lake. read more

Overall - clean, delicious, and nice view. Took 1 star off for decor that feels dated and seasonal dessert that left me disappointed. The lightning inside/ambiance was nice on a Friday night so that was bonus. Pros: - Views - Food quality - Cocktails - well maintained and clean restrooms Cons: - Second drink arrived late, by the time we got it we didn't even really want it anymore. - Decor feels very eighties/nineties cabin-style. Left me confused if this restaurant wants to be cozy or elevated? Menu is elevated so I wasn't sure of the vibe. - rhubarb slump had barely any rhubarb in it and was overall interesting, but I wouldn't order it again. - risotto is good but very heavy (as in creaminess and oil levels are overkill IMO) so I wouldn't reorder as an entree personally. read more

Great spot for a scenic lunch & stroll around Silver Lake with our newborn. We stopped in on Wednesday at 2pm, seated right away. The hostess was super kind, offered a sling for our car seat and made extra space for us. HH menu felt smaller than I remember, but food was still good: calamari (huge + perfectly fried), green bean fries (highly recommend), and Manila clams (would skip next time). We shared a Caesar with salmon, split into 2 plates: tasty but the salmon portion was pretty small for +$15 IMO. read more

Made an online reservation and waited about 7 minutes to be seated. We ordered two appetizers, soup, and a salad. The spicy buffalo cauliflower was overcooked and overly sauced, and the calamari was mostly small pieces rather than the larger rings I expected. The salad was good, though I didn't expect raw mushrooms. I had planned to order a cocktail with Empress gin from the online menu, but it was no longer available in the restaurant. The cocktail I ordered instead was a bit too sweet. I really liked the atmosphere, but the food was the part I was least satisfied with. read more

We stopped in on a quiet Thursday night, thinking they wouldn't be very busy... Boy were we wrong! We asked for a table outside, the wait wasn't long at all surprisingly. Shortly after being seated, Rio showed up with water and asked if we had any questions about the menu. If you haven't had dinner on "The Deck" on a beautiful Pacific Northwest evening, then you are missing out! Rio thoughtfully offered to bring us bread while we wait for the Calamari. Calamari that was done very well! Lightly breaded, perfectly seasoned. The dipping sauces were tasty too! I want to apologize in advance for not taking pictures of our entrees, but they looked sooo f'n good we just started murdering them! My Queens steak was a perfect medium rare, and my seafood fettuccine was loaded with deliciousness. We both made sure to leave some room for dessert, which was also done very well. We enjoyed the berry sorbet and the old fashioned berry shortcake. Both were absolutely amazing! Between the stunning view, the great service from Rio and the passionately prepared dishes the talented kitchen was preparing, tonight was an experience worth returning for, Thank you Emory's read more

A little busy on the weekends but otherwise... Great service, lovely views and delicious food. What not could you ask for?! read more

My first visit to Emory's left something to be desired. My boyfriend and I decided to stop in for their happy hour, which has a decently sized food and drink menu with reasonable prices. I started with a peach hard lemonade, which was sweet and tangy with an $8.50 price tag. The food, on the other hand, was just alright. Our Woodstone pizzas were tasty, but the crust was underwhelming. This is a seafood restaurant, so the pizza isn't their priority. We dined on the patio, which was pretty toasty on a 70° day. The shades were closed, so we missed out on the lake views. Overall, we had a decent visit, and enjoyed the atmosphere, but won't be rushing back. read more

The French dip is seriously the best, I get it every single time I come here! I also love the view of the lake, especially around sunset because it makes the whole place feel even better. It's such a good date spot too, and I like that it feels like a really nice, more luxurious restaurant without being crazy expensive. The only thing they could improve a little is the service because the wait times can be pretty long sometimes, but overall I still really enjoy coming here. read more

They have an excellent happy hour menu with reasonable prices. Recommendations: Calamari - lightly battered with a fantastic aioli dipping sauce, but ask for two sauces to get you through all the calamari! Burger/fries were both great Crab/Artichoke dip - filling, but great We sat outside next to the fire to keep us warm: a great ambience and much quieter than the bar. The service was a little slow - one gentleman to handle 12 tables or so...but more servers were coming in as we were leaving. read more

Emory's was the choice for tonight's birthday dinner! July 14th sun shining, water still, a few people out on paddle boards, and life as we know it happening! We had an amazing dinner with not one disappointed face. We started with Calamari Fritti and Steamed Clams. The calamari was crispy, with small rings and a really good dipping sauce. The boyfriend and daughter pretty much devoured the clams--they were sitting in the most flavorful lemon-butter sauce, which they both practically wanted to drink. Drinks: Ginger ale and Jameson Berry Berry Drop (beyond delicious) Shirley Temple My daughter had the Garlic Cheese French Dip. It was her first time trying a French dip and she said it was tasty and she enjoyed it. My boyfriend ordered the Creamy Seafood Risotto. Nothing but positive things came out of his mouth with every single bite! He even had enough to take home for lunch tomorrow. I did the 3 for $33 option: Caesar Salad - easily the most delicious and flavorful Caesar I've had in a long time. Plenty of cheese and dressing. Double R Ranch Top Sirloin with mashed potatoes and seasonal veggies - ordered medium well and it came out perfect. Flavorful, well-seasoned, and you could cut it like butter. The mashed potatoes were fluffy and seasoned just right. The veggie was peas not my cup of tea, but they looked fresh and my daughter liked them! Dessert: Orange Crème Brûlée. My boyfriend and daughter shared it and loved it! We'll definitely be back for more tasty food! read more

Well...the steak was good. The puddle it was in? Mediocre. The squiggles piped on top? Mid. The veggies? Soft and bland veggies, the potatoes were slightly sweet and they were normal mash. And while the apple bread pudding dessert was delicious it was given to me cold. Yes, I asked for it to go, no I did not say don't warm it. I had to eat it to go as my wife was feeling ill suddenly mid meal. Once I realized it was cold I had to wait for a microwave to dig in. In the end it felt like a place that was good at some point, went a little too far trying to fancy it up (sauce + green piping on steak) and not far enough to maintain consistency (a better roast on the veg and some salt and pepper would have done wonders). Unfortunately pair this with the very frosty service, and I won't be back. Oh and another thing, the booth seat was so loose and wiggly I was experiencing a bit of a roller coaster courtesy of the gentleman in the booth behind me. Every. Little. Movement. The waitress noticed but, as expected, did nothing. read more

Food was spectacular. I had a Shrimp Louie salad. I ate everything in this fresh salad, it had eggs, avocados, tomatoes, radishes, olives, orange peppers, tons of delicious shrimp in a very tasty thousand island dressing. Great warm bread with whipped butter. Hubby had steak n shrimp with mashed potatoes and asparagus. Cooked to order and perfect. Laura our beautiful wait staff was terrific. We had for dessert the strawberry cheesecake with strawberries and crème brûlée topping. What a taste sensation!! Go! I wish we had a place like this near where we live. Then we took a walk around the lake behind the restaurant. Full of ducks and fishermen hanging around. Silver Lake is just breathtaking! read more

Food: Not great...stay away from the Chicken Marsala. It was so sweet, I've never had Chicken Marsala taste like that before. The few bites of chicken I ate had a nice fried crunch, but the sauce was horrible. The fried green beans tasted ok, but the coating was too tough. The crab dip was good and the ratio of bread to dip was perfect. The Caesar salad was meh, not enough flavor. Service: Our waiter was very attentive and the only reason for more than one star. Ambiance: Ok I really wanted to like it since it's my niece's favorite, but not worth the price tag. read more

We love Emory's. It's nearby, always has good food, is right on the edge of Silver Lake in South Everett, and we almost never have to wait if we have a reservation. Tonight was the exception. We had a reservation for 6 PM, but didn't get seated until after 6:30. The food was fantastic (the Seafood Fettuccine was probably the best I've ever had), but this one occasion I was looking forward to them asking if it was a special occasion like they always do, since it was our 47th wedding anniversary, and they didn't ask! That actually suited my wife just fine, but I was anticipating a little bit of recognition, so was a little disappointed. read more

Rio was so hot and gave us such good service. The way he held the trays was very impressive.

The food is acceptable, though it could benefit from additional seasoning. The view of Silver Lake is beautiful. read more

We did not have a reservation when we showed up for dinner. The dining room was rather busy for a Wednesday night, but we were quickly seated. Everything was very clean, and no one looked rushed. You could see the manager actively walking around the room and she was very nice when she stopped by our table. The menu had many different options to fit many dietary needs and everything we got had great flavor. Some drinks rotate seasonally so make sure to ask what will be around for only a short time. read more

Our server was very nice and did a great job. The place needs updating, it has good bones but needs attention. Food was ok. There were 5 of us and we all had different entrees, but the consensus was that it ranked 4 out of 10. The view of the lake is quite nice read more

Attentive waiters, food very mediocre nothing like what you would get at other Anthony's locations.

The food was good, although the prices have increased significantly. Unfortunately the server ruined the whole experience. He was condescending, unfriendly and never checked in so my friend ate her entire meal with no water. We finally got his attention but instead of bringing her water he stopped at two other tables to take their order. So disappointing, guess it's Arnies in the future. read more

Great experience, good food and a great view. My only gripe is the service, a few little things just took too long to get done, refills, new silverware request etc. however I know our waiter did the best they could. It's the management that needs to adjust their shifts or get out and work the floor themselves. If you enjoy Anthony's you like it here, it's a little better. read more

Had an amazing thanksgiving dinner with my family! Highlights were the melt in your mouth filet mignon, super savory! Cole was our server and he was attentive, energetic & super cute!!

Great atmosphere and service. Nice to be on the water - Silver Lake. Good variety on the menu.

This was my second time at Emory's and it was just as great as the first time. The restaurant is decorated so cute for the holidays. We got to sit outside in the enclosed/heated patio by the fireplace and it was the perfect temperature and so cozy. This really added to the ambiance. We ate our hearts out and it was all so tasty. For drinks, we got the peppermint martini and double chocolate martini from the holiday menu. I definitely preferred the chocolate martini. The peppermint martini was good but I feel like it was missing chocolate. That would've made it perfect. For appetizers, we ordered the flatbread bruschetta and the brie. Both were really good. For the salad, I ordered the hearts of romaine. I wasn't expecting the salad to come out this way - I do appreciate the presentation but I like when my salad is evenly coated with dressing so that was a slight miss - otherwise tasty. For dinner, I got the meatloaf and it was so good. Every bite with the mashed potatoes and broccolini and meatloaf was just so cozy and delicious. Comfort food at its finest. For dessert, we got the chocolate mousse, apple pie thing, and a peppermint sundae. All were great. Overall, it was a tasty night and I am still thinking about the food a week later. read more

First time dining here and i absolutely will be back! Alex, our waitress was phenomenal, the happy hour was fantastic and the 3 for 33 deal was an absolute steal. The outdoor seating was perfect. the steak was probably the best medium rare I've ever experienced anywhere. I'd recommend this to anyone wanting Seattle fine dining for non Seattle fine dining prices. read more

Staff appeared disengaged, and my meal took over 30 minutes to arrive despite only three other tables being occupied. When it finally came, the food was cold and inedible. I returned it and was not charged. This was, by far, the worst dining experience I've had. The restaurant seems to be relying on an outdated reputation while continuing to overcharge guests. It may be time to reconsider its future. read more

First time back at Emery's since Anthony's took over. We had to wait 20 minutes from our reservation time until we were shown a table - we almost left. The service was great once we were seated. The dipping oil seemed to be short on the olive oil as we both had an inflammatory reaction to seed oils - that subsequently kept us up most of the night with digestive distress. One plus, the cherry tomatoes in the salad were actually pretty good. The hamburger was not worth the price. I asked for medium rare and it came out well done. It also seemed to have been reheated as in not freshly cooked. Our table felt like we were squeezed onto a shoulder on a busy highway. Food was 'okay' but just too expensive for okay. Next time we'll go to Rogers in Snohomish. read more

We came here for dinner the other night when my parents were in town. We had never been before and decided to give it a try. The restaurant was beautiful and the view was gorgeous. We got there around 5:15 and were seated immediately. I definitely recommend making a reservation if you don't get here early because the place got really busy as the night went on. They have a great deal for early dinner with 3 courses for $28. I got this along with my parents while my husband ordered from the regular menu. We got bread to start which was a tasty sourdough and a delicious garlic oil to dip it in to. I got the shrimp cocktail and the Caesar salad to start (it was $5 extra for an additional appetizer). The Caesar was tasty and a good size. The shrimp cocktail wasn't my favorite as the shrimp was just lightly tossed in cocktail sauce and I prefer it on the side to dip the shrimp in to. For my entree I got the garlic crab which came with a cluster of crab legs, potatoes and corn. The crab and potatoes didn't have much flavor but the crab seemed fresh. I ended up dipping it in the garlic oil from the bread which made it delicious. The corn was too greasy so I didn't eat much of it. For dessert I got the chocolate mousse which was tasty. My parents got the cod and shrimp scampi which they both enjoyed. My husband got the duck which he really liked and the apple pie for dessert which was delicious. Service was quick and friendly. read more

Went in on a busy Saturday night for a little pre-ballet date night with my fiance. Got a nice table with a great water view. The drinks were awesome (blood orange mule was fantastic), the service was impeccable. Couldnt even get half of my water finished and it was being filled already. Everything came out hot and fresh. I had the Steak Oscar special done medium rare. It was perfectly cooked. I do wish for a little more crab with that dish but, who doesnt want more crab regardless. It was very tasty and I would order again. My fiance got the creamy seafood risotto and she absolutely was raving about it. Our waitress was pleasant and on point. I wish I could remember her name but kudos to the staff there for providing excellent service. It seems its more and more rare these days and they really knocked it out of the park. I cannot wait to come back and try more! read more

It's to bad the service level has dropped so far for such a great facility and location. I had to go find a server to go locate our food. It was cold and not as good quality as years past. This was another try after writing them off a few months ago. I think we are finally finished and won't go back. We are sad at the decline of a great place to get out in the past. read more

Ok. Something has shifted. Tectonically. Apparently Anthony's has recognized the local favorite Thai Chicken strips and is working to bring it back. They even have an alternative the Thai chicken boneless wings that I wish they would also keep because they're dirt cheap!!! Go get some before they're gone. We talked to the new manager Barbie, and she really seemed to care. They're making a lot of changes and we need our staple Emory's. I think Anthony's might be getting it. So here's a fresh 5 star review. Mostly because the managers are really paying attention. Food is usually good but if they get rod of Thai chicken wings and or strips, we'll have nothing to eat and starve! read more

My wife and I had dinner last night. Fish and chips. The waitress was great. We left a good tip. We barely got home before we both got very sick. Could've been the too greasy fish (tasted a little too 'fishy'). Maybe the too greasy fries, the overly sugared coleslaw, or the tartar sauce or oil for dipping bread - both with way too much garlic. Too bad. Ruined a decent spot for us. Probably won't go back for a very long time. read more

We were unhappy with our dinners. We really expecting better food, our rib steaks were tough and not a quality of meat. The steak was cooked to perfection but it was tough. The cod dinner was good, not overcooked. The bread and olive oil were great. Our service was mediocre, we had to ask for water and soft drink refills. The restaurant was clean and the restrooms were fresh. We expected more and we were disappointed. In a world where there are many choices, I suggest you skip this establishment and try elsewhere. read more

I saw this place on a run around silver lake trail. Looks beautiful from the outside but it's even nicer inside. Love the decor, just like eating in a giant cabin on the lake which huge windows facing the lake. The bread served with garlic oil was delicious. Got the fried calamari, not too greasy not too crunchy and not too chewy, very good. The winter walnut old fashioned was so good. Got the meatloaf and chicken saltimbocca both were amazing. Considering how much we got and the setting and food the price really wasn't that bad either. read more
