Die besten zwanglosen Restaurants in Glenview

Service was impressive. Constant supply of water, great timing between meals, waiter was excellent. New plates between meals. Food was awesome. Sweet potato latkes had the classic latke texture and flavor with an added creaminess and sweetness from the sweet potato. The falafel was very well seasoned and the sweet creaminess of the beet tzatziki was complemented perfectly by the savory, slightly grittiness of the tahini sauce. The harissa crusted halibut was perfectly cooked flakey fish with a beautifully salty dashi mushroom broth. The harissa crust itself had a cheese-forward flavor not unlike cheez-itz, but in a good way, brightened up by shavings of lemon zest. The frozen yogurt with olive oil and sea salt was a bit surprising in that it was more cheesy than I had expected it to be. The yogurt was great and the drops of olive oil carried a salty punch to them and had hardened ever so slightly from the coldness of the yogurt. The burnt honey cake was great. Tall light multi-layered cake with light burnt honey whipped cream and some other warm spices like cinnamon. The honey cake tasted eerily similar to cinnamon teddy grahams from when I was a kid. The meal was very good, with creative twists on classic dishes that were enhanced by bold flavors. The nostalgic elements of flavors from my childhood were special. The service was excellent. I would definitely recommend Ema, and if you’re ever in Chicago to try Aba as well. Both are great restaurants.

The oysters on the half shell were big and fresh - best I’ve had in years.

We sat at the bar and enjoyed our drinks and meal, and interactions with our bartender. I had the pork chop and it was cooked perfectly and properly seasoned.

Four of us dined here last night. Starters included their specialty fried onion that we could not stop eating until every morsel was gone. Also had the hearty clam chowder soup. salmon special was tasty and prepared perfectly with a mild soy ginger glaze served with red skin potatoes that were a bit bland. The burgers were also prepared perfect and tasted great. We tried two desserts, carrot cake with walnut cream cheese frosting and a double chocolate mousse with whipped cream, both fantastic

First time there and will definitely go back. Both service and food were very good
