    Such an amazing place for Italian food. Also has some hints of Greek flavors. A large menu of items to choose from, makes it difficult to decide on just one item.

    It was a nice environment. We were on the early end of the dinner rush and got a bit forgotten towards the end of the meal. The food was in some ways excellent and in other ways too much. Too spicy, too salty, too lemony depending on each persons dish. The artichoke appetizer was perfection.

    The restaurant’s website has a posted lunch menu that states it’s offered Monday - Friday. When we arrived today, Friday, for lunch, the server informed us they will not be offering the lunch menu until January. Disappointing.

    Disappointing Christmas Eve meal. Service was lackluster and fool was served barely warm. The Wedge salad was served with the corr in tact, so it only yielded 4 bites.

    Our Christmas Eve Dinner party had a wonderful evening at Via Emilia Woodlands. The ambiance, service and food were 5 Stars. Our service provided by Stephen was outstanding. No rush to enjoy a special evening with good friends and memorable cuisine. This is not our first visit to Via Emilia and we are thrilled the atmosphere, food and service remains the same, 5 Stars. Via Emilia delivers with consistency and quality.
