    There was a press junket through some New Orleans restaurants last week and that article may be a product of it. There are some other write-ups on Emeril's and others in some other US news sources.

      As stated in the beginning of the article:

      JazzyB,

      Nice write up, and I think that it captured the "essence," with no pun intended.

      Like others, it has been a while for us, but we have always had fun, great food and great service at Emeril's. Remember - that was then, but we are now, so don't have recent reviews. Even their wine service was fun, well-focused to pair, and appropriate.

      As many will include Emeril's in their line-ups, I think that this would be good to point to.

      While Emerial's might not be the ultimate, and most levels, it never failed to impress us.

      I find that many, who review Emeril's here, are too hung up on the TV persona. I have to admit that Emeril Live s a bit off-putting to me, but did like his old cooking show, before the "showman" emerged to become a super-star. Still, I will never hold that against the Chef, as the restaurant has always delivered the goods, and with a bit of a wink and a nod.

      Thank you,

      Hunt

        Hey Jazzy, am I missing something? Did you post this in response to something?

          I added a preface...seems like there's always someone inquiring. Thought I'd provide some (hopefully) unbiased info that isn't from a bud of Emeril.

            It's funny, I have absolutely no qualms with Emeril's, or Delmonico for that matter, yet I haven't been to the former in months, the latter in at least 3 years. Strange how places just slip under the radar. I need to rectify this.
