I tried Emilia at Le Central & overall it was a decent experience. I had the Tina sandwich & it tasted really good. Definitely the highlight of the meal.

Unfortunately, the fries were a big disappointment. They were overcooked, had no salt at all, & just weren't enjoyable. For a place like Emilia, they can definitely do much better with the fries. Come on guys!

The Tina sandwich was solid though, & I'd come back to try some of their other options.

Ordered salade & fries for side & got rice & fries. It seems the female staff doesn't know basic English, only showing bad attitude. Very unpleasant experience. Train your employees better pls.

Very cheap business. They try to cut costs by cutting portion sizes. This was a BOGO from uber eats which I have gotten multiple times before & the portion was never this bad. They also changed their bowls to smaller bowls. Embarrassing. Not worth it for the price. The poutine is also made with stale fries & not fresh at all.

Fries are good & crispy, unseasoned though, could use a little salt. The piri piri sauce is very good & flavourful. The chicken is delicious but a bit dry. The chorico is huge & delicious. Overall good food that I would try again.

Disapointed. Ordered a chicken with spicy sauce & utensils. Got home. No sauce... no utensils. So i ate my dry chicken & cold fries & it was probably close to the worst portuguese chicken i ever had.

We liked the setting & how many options were inside- very relaxed & everyone could get something they liked. We ordered the spicy chicken & shrimp with rice & salad. The food was great, with a good amount of spice. The girl working the counter was not the friendliest though & was off putting.
