Emmy Squared Pizza – Old Town

Came here on a Saturday evening for a lovely date night! Ambience: At capacity and energetic (they were playing some fun 2000s tunes pretty loudly , but our table was all the way at the back of the restaurant. The overall volume ended up being lively but not overbearing for us. Drinks: Nice wine selection, but maybe the price/pour ratio could improve a bit. Really interesting 007 martini that uses both gin and vodka, and a hot toddy with spiced honey is a great starter for cold nights. The frozen pre made pomegranate margarita is yummy and just strong enough, but it seems overpriced it costs the same as complicated mixed drinks that need to be made to order. Usually bars will price premade drinks a little cheaper since they save time. Food: Pizza and a few apps were delicious! We've enjoyed the roasted cauliflower before, but this time it had more of the flavorful banana peppers, pine nuts, etc. The gluten free baked ziti is SPICY so watch out if you have a low or even moderate tolerance for spice (those are NOT marinara blobs on top! . My partner loved the brussels sprouts salad and has been fantasizing about it since. We really appreciate the gluten free/vegan options for pizza, but see note below on service. Service: Our server was friendly and professional, but unfortunately they can't seem to get our pizza the way we want it. This is the second time we requested light vegan cheese and extra sauce but seemed to get the opposite. We love the option for vegan cheese, but a little goes a long way. We still liked it, and we'll just try again when we come back (and we'll definitely be back! .

Food took over 45 minutes to come out, then we had to send the pizza back because the meat was undercooked. The staff was friendly; however we were not able to enjoy our dinner in the restaurant due to the long wait.

Food and service was great. However the amount of tax on the bill seemed to be excessive. The State and Local tax rate was 16% on the bill. The Restaurant did not break down the bill for State Sales tax and the City Meal tax. Based on the internet browsing seems the rate should be 6% sales tax and 5% City Meal tax for a 11% total.

Great place for kids. Took 3 of our grandsons ages 3 to 8. They loved the pizza as did the rest of us. Fun place.

Our experience was amazing. Brian did a fantastic job serving us and informing us about dishes and drinks. The hostess was amazing and full of energy. The atmosphere was off the charts and the food was absolutely outstanding. We tried a little of everything were in such shock that every single thing we tried was full of flavor and every bite taste like the first. We loved it so much to say it is our new favorite restaurant and we have already made reservations to come back and make this our regular date night spot.
