Listen, if you want class and sophistication, there are hundreds of restaurants - go to one of them. If you go to Emmy's, expect a funky, unpolished, jeans-n-hoodies, cash-only scene with hit-and-miss service. But damn, it's GOOD and CHEAP!
The first time I went, I was very unimpressed. But the spaghetti ($6, or $8.5 with meatballs) gets under your skin, and the second time I went it was a revelation. Emmy's is great for a cheap, tasty, and different place to eat. Perfect for a weeknight when you wanna eat out but don't want to break the bank.
Pros: Good food for cheap, Sizeable portions, No Marina types
Cons: Iffy service
