The Emerald Restaurant

We ate here for the first time a few days ago and it was by far the best Irish food we’ve ever had! The service was just as fantastic as the food and the atmosphere is so charming and full of character! We will be going back to try all of the amazing dishes drinking many Guinness’ and Irish coffees. Thank you for such a wonderful night out celebrating birthdays! ❤️

If you are Irish, or not, you will really enjoy this place. It is authentic down to the last detail. From the chef, Marge, to the decor and even the dress of the service staff, wspecially Michelle, you'll love it. Menu items are authentic prepared by a real Irish. The menu has a great selection and priced perfectly right. You'll love the entire experience. I know I did.

We celebrated our 30th anniversary there tonight in spite of the Covid pandemic. Last week, I made a reservation for dinner and then yesterday received a call saying that they would rather not have us dine inside. Really wanting to enjoy their food, I called earlier today and asked if we could have a picnic on their lawn. She said that would be fine and I placed our order for the evening and told her we'd be there at 6:30. We arrived with our portable picnic table, china, silver, flowers, to see that they had set a lovely table for us outside. It was a lovely evening with a comfortable breeze, even though it was in the upper 90's earlier in the day. We enjoyed their onion soup, Irish bread, the County Mayo Salmon Special, The Old Sod Special, and ended the meal with their cheesecake. It was the best evening EVER! Michelle was so kind and being Flanagan's she wanted to know about my husband's lineage and mine (German and Polish). We will definitely return. I did ask if they would continue to serve outside and she said for now, 1 outside table per evening and of course take out. I would highly recommend an evening outside with some of the best food and hospitality ever.

I think we will be going there for Saint Patrick's Day

I had a very long review and it deleted. We finally got to visit this jewel of a restaurant for our 16th anniversary this Leap Day and it did not disappoint. The food was hearty and cooked to perfection, and with love. IT made us feel like we were visiting a favorite Aunt in Ireland and we left happy and stuffed. I am glad we ordered off the menu and not the food for couples because we would have not been able to finish all the food. Sadly, there was no room in our stomach for dessert this time. I ordered the special for that day and tasted the most delicate chicken smothered in a currant sauce and sitting on Irish dressing. (What makes it Irish I do not know, but it was amazing). The potatoes I assumed I would skip, being potatoes and all- but I ended up eating every bite! Tarragon on potatoes cooked perfectly could not be resisted. I also choose the flambeed onion soup which was a hit for the other diners there when it was lit on fire. I could have come just for that soup to be honest, it had such a deep flavor and presentation that I really wanted more, but next time I may have to skip it so I can try something from the dessert menu. I'll have to see if I can add photos later but all I can say is Thank You for such a wonderful relaxing dinner. It is worth it to dine in Irish Time.
