Emil's Hideaway is a cozy and inviting restaurant that serves delicious food. With its flavorful pizza, tasty mules, and a variety of American-inspired dishes, it has become a favorite among locals. The menu features top-notch chili, burgers, and Italian beef, as well as the popular Thai Peanut Butter sandwich with fries. The restaurant's attentive service and upcoming winter menu additions make it a must-visit destination. Despite the changes due to COVID-19, Emil's Hideaway continues to impress customers with its creative culinary offerings.
The restaurant's atmosphere is described as "interesting" and "really dark," creating a unique dining experience. Customers have praised the pretzel bites, which are sweet, fluffy, and gooey on the inside with a crispy shell and a salty coating. The pizza crust is also highly regarded, with a bread flour flavor, a touch of sweetness and yeastiness. The fries are a standout, with their excellent flavor, seasoning, and texture.
The menu at Emil's Hideaway offers a good blend of various "American food" items, with some dishes being "a little bit done up." Customers appreciate the ability to customize their orders to suit their preferences, and the restaurant's selection of options caters to a wide range of tastes. While the menu could benefit from more options or markings for customers with dietary needs, Emil's Hideaway remains a favorite spot for a quick and satisfying meal.
