I'm going to speak about their vegan wrap and their vegan wrap alone. My job had them cater for lunch and everything was fine...but this vegan wrap?! I don't know how to tell you that I've fallen in love with it. There are very few dishes outside my culture's signature dishes that I will even try and make at home, but this wrap? Ohmylord!!! It had leafy greens and some sort of hummus (I can only assume) as a base. Add to it red sauteed onions, sweet potatoes, and this spiced eggplant. It wasn't spicy hot, but enough of a kick to it to know there were spices involved. This place has me looking online at how to make this delectable morsel. I'm serious. I will be eating this dish again.

We had an event catered for our parent's 90th birthday party. Lauren was a delight to work with and helped me choose an ENTIRELY GLUTEN FREE menu that was most excellent. No one missed the gluten (there were crostini and gf mac and cheese!) and the food couldn't have been better. It was also generously and fairly priced. High quality all the way!!!Dietary restrictions: Excellent beyond belief for Gluten Free catering!!!

They were great from the beginning with choosing out the menu to the day of the wedding. The Chef and server were great and very helpful the food was excellent. The buffet was set up nicely, the cheese island was set up nicely and they cut the cake and set it up nicely. We would recommend them for any event !!!

I'm so grateful Emily's Cafe & Catering catered our wedding. Emily's food is delicious, classic and we are still hearing from our guests that it was the wedding dinner they've ever had. Emily made our lives so easy in the planning process, she went above and beyond for a year leading up to our wedding and made our day extra special with small creative suggestions she made along the way (cupcakes!). Thank you Emily!

I recently used Emily's Catering for my wedding, and I absolutely have nothing bad to say. I initially went in with my fiancee for a tasting and fell in love. As a huge "foodie", I knew the meals had to be perfect. Not only were the Hors d'oeuvres exquisite, but the meals were just as amazing as I had hyped my family up for 6 months. I had guests asking if they could have seconds ...AT A WEDDING!! That's not even the best part. The service was outstanding. From the kitchen, to the servers, to the managers, everyone looked out for each other and the guests asking how things were and without an imply, bring my wife and I food during our photoshoots. I cannot stress enough how important it is, for you the reader, to go to Emily's Cafe and grab a quick meal or to have them cater. They absolutely did not disappoint 11/10. My wife and I will be making regular visits to the small shop to remember how great everything was.Dietary restrictions: Caters to your needs for sureKid-friendliness: Very kid friendlyWheelchair accessibility: Able to access by wheelchair

I just went here for the first time, I had a spinach and beet salad and also the avocado toast! I can say it was amazing and I will be going back. The servers are very friendly and it has a nice atmosphere.

Stopped for lunch with a colleague and was pleasantly surprised. Place is clean and neatly decorated. Panini’s were delicious accompanied by fresh salads. Staff was pleasant. I definitely will return.

I've gone to Emily's many times over the years. I've always loved the casual and welcoming atmosphere. The food has always been good as well. Lately, though, I've just been getting takeout, for a few reasons. The music has gotten louder, and I hate being the crabby patron who always asks the server to turn the music down. The music also has a sort of weird, new-agey vibe that I find unpleasant. The counters around the room display artwork, I suppose from local artists, and the images are odd and disturbing. This is no longer a place that makes me feel settled and happy. So, now I just do takeout, which would be fine, except that changes they've made to my long-time favorite order, the arugula salad, are disappointing. This last time, the leaves of lettuce had tough, woody stems and flowers attached (see photo for just a few of them). Picking them out made the salad difficult to eat. In addition, the almonds were not the usual shaved almonds, but the hard, slivered blanched almonds with no flavor. I guess I'm not going to order that salad again. It's a shame. The staff remains as welcoming and pleasant as ever and I'd love to keep coming to this local gem.

It is nice and friendly. The menu had a nice mix. enjoyed the lunchParking: Availability is what it is. Certain times there is plenty of parking on street or behind business also depends on peoples lunch time

Emily's catered an outdoor party for us this weekend. We had the ravioli, beef tenderloin and chimichurri chicken for entrees. Everything was amazing- we got so many compliments to pass on the chef.

Business lunch at Emily's Cafe...first time patron and I would definitely return. I chose the Power Salad and added Grilled Chicken. I was pleased with the portion size as well as the service. It's a smaller establishment but I liked the small, quaint feeling. My only request would be for them to add at least one gluten free dessert option to the menu.

Business lunch at Emily’s Cafe…first time patron and I would definitely return! I opted for the Power Salad with Grilled Chicken. The portion size was just enough, and the server was very pleasant. It’s not a large establishment but I liked that it was smaller and quaint. My only request would be for them to add at least one gluten free dessert option.

Best sandwich shop in the area!NOTE: Prices on Google haven’t been updated in a while, and are substantially more expensive in the store. If cost isn’t an issue, definitely eat here!
