Da Emma serves traditional Roman cuisine characterized by authentic techniques and bold, simple flavor profiles. The menu focuses on artisanal pasta preparations, wood-fired roasting methods, and the integration of fresh, seasonal Mediterranean produce.

Culinary offerings highlight hearty regional staples such as salt cod, artichokes prepared in the Jewish style, and robust meat dishes cooked to precise temperatures. Each selection emphasizes the fundamental qualities of high-quality ingredients sourced to maintain genuine flavor integrity. The establishment maintains a consistent focus on the culinary heritage of central Italy by providing substantial portions prepared according to generational practices. This approach ensures a direct connection to the specific food culture found in the heart of Rome.

I didn't like the service. It felt like I they didn't want to serve me with carelike other costumers with their Nona's. It's a shame the food was good, except by the pasta (should be al dente but was borderline to undercooked). Ambient is great tho, unfortunately I didn't feel welcome & cared & it changed my overall experience. I really liked their Tiramisu, it's a must for dessert there.

A group of us went to dinner on April 4, 2024. Our server was inattentive, opinionated & lacked of patience which gave all of us the sense of rushing our dinner experience. The food was okay but nothing to brag about. We were not asked how so we like our meat to be cooked. Our preference for extra shaved Parmigiano cheese were argued by the server. I'm sad to say that I will not return to once was a great restaurant.

Been to Da Emma 2-3 times before. Visiting from Toronto, I always make sure I make resos here. I took 5 family members & amped up the restaurant so much. The food was incredible but our waiter was awful. So rude. Barely gave us the time of day. Took only some of our order. Constantly walked away before we are done ordering. He had glasses & a bun. Honestly I would have walked out if I knew all night would be this way. I asked him if he could tell us the history of what Da Emma was all about - & he said when it's less busy. It died down completely & he ignored us completely. We waited 20-30 minutes after he dropped off our bill. So disappointed. For the amazing level the restaurant is this guy should NOT be working there. Can't handle the service. Can't handle the customer service. Ruined all the hype I made the place to be. Again, food 10/10 but that guy has to go.
