• Pizzeria • West Village

A typical food love story. A boy meets a girl while eating pizza. He attends culinary school and open’s a pizza restaurant named after the girl. Thus bringing us to Emily! The Manhattan iteration of the Brooklyn based pizzeria centered around a historic brick oven and comforting food. Emily has earned a following for its signature Detroit-style pies and award winning burger. The pizza here is rectangular (not round) and utilizes the "frico" technique, in which cheese is drizzled on the edges of the pie to create a crispy brown exterior. Beyond the main event, the menu extends to include salads and sandwiches, which shouldn't be ignored (think an attention-grabbing burger and a top-notch spicy fried chicken sandwich). Please note, there will be a time limit of 1 hour 30 minutes for guests so we can fairly utilize our limited capacity. Our outdoor dining is enclosed with heaters that will keep you toasty! Thank you :)

First time at RH Rooftop for me and my friends. Chosen to celebrate my milestone birthday. We were all so impressed with the elegant ambiance, crystal chandeliers, superb waitstaff and service, delicious food prepared to perfection. And the best was a surprise birthday candle for dessert with a warm soft yummy chocolate chip cookie. We will definitely come back for another lovely experience.

I had dinner here last week, and it completely exceeded my expectations. It’s a rare find—sophisticated yet focused on the little details that make a big difference. The menu has a great mix of lighter and heartier options, and everything I tried was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The cocktails were another highlight—creative, fun, and perfectly balanced without ever feeling gimmicky. The staff were super friendly and attentive without hovering, always appearing just when we needed them. And that ocean view? Stunning. It made the whole experience feel extra special. This is definitely a spot I’ll be recommending—and coming back to!
