Newer to the area we tried Emle's for dinner. The food wasn't bad, I would eat there again. They had a piano player there too. That was nice. The bathroom was very dirty, but I think this is more on the person who was in there and not necessarily the restaurant. read more

Came in for brunch on a Sunday. It was busy but we found a table right away. SERVICE: 4 STARS the staff was nice. All men. Nothing wrong with that. The guy that room our drink order for sure forgot the almond milk request on my iced latte :( Once we got our food no one came back to check on us. I had to flag down our waiter (I hate doing that) for garlic sauce. FOOD: 3 STARS Beef Shawarma: 3 STARS I wasn't too thrilled about it. It lacked flavor and the grilled onion pieces were huge! I added garlic paste because I thought the flavor was too bland Chicken Alfredo pasta: 4 STARS Surprisingly this was better. It had chicken and mushroom. The sauce was creamy BUT the consistency was a little too watery. Iced Latte: 3 STARS the serving was big which I liked. It was like a venti size from Starbucks. However I couldn't drink it because I think they put whole milk instead of almond which I had asked for and since it was hard to flag down our waiter I didn't bother. I do want to come back try their Mediterranean breakfast. I saw some photos on here of some other stuff I want to try. Since I live in the area I will be coming back. read more

Why isn't this place packed? We were there at off hours, a our first time. Nice ambience. Service was perfect. Attentive and friendly. The menu is overwhelming. So much to choose from! Something for every meal part, breakfast lunch and dinner! Food was fabulous. Coming back soon. If I was still attending CSUN (class of '76 baby!) this would be my hang. Go. Thank me later. read more

Was seeking comfort food near my work. Stopped here and ordered the meat loaf. Starter chicken rice soup was rich. It saved me. The main course meatloaf had a very odd taste and appearance was poor. Could not eat it. Mashed potatoes were salty. Veggies were acceptable but a little mushy/overcooked. There was only one other couple in the restaurant. Odd internal decor with dramatic art against an over-lit square cafe Service was kind and friendly. This was a one-and-done for me. Can't recommend. Would be surprised if they remain open another 6 months. On to Menchie's for some certain satisfaction. read more

Recently tried their famous funnel cake french toast. It was gross. All I can taste was fried oil. This is coming from someone who loves funnel cake so I was really looking forward to trying it out. My wife tried it and agreed with me. She told me it was saturated with oil. She said it happens when you deep fry something before letting the oil reach a certain temperature. When that happens, it just soaks up all the oil. Nice! I am assuming I might have been the first customer for the morning, unfortunately. It was so bad, I couldn't finish it and it was thrown away. I would never order this again. read more

A hidden gem! Doesn't seem like much from the outside but food is good and service is good. If I could give 4.5 I would. I just don't typically give 5. The ambiance could be better but that's just based on where the location is read more

The service is always good at Emle's and the food is even better. My wife has been coming here longer than I and never an issue. The owners always remember her drink when she arrives. Impressive with awesome service. Highly recommend with a well rounded menu. Indoor / outdoor seating always clean. read more

My first review was dinner. Today, it's breakfast and I was not disappointed. Fast and courteous service, food tastes good and proportional for the price. Definitely an alternative to Denny's and iHop. Highly recommended. Lunch test is next and then a private party reservation. read more

Fantastic food every time we go there. Friendly staff, treat you like family. Quick calm service. Best food for the money in the valley. read more

Love this place! I have had many breakfasts here and noticed they have an impressive lunch menu. Today I tried the Louisiana Chicken Sandwich. It by itself probably 4 stars but my experience here with their breakfast in mind certainly requires a 5 star review! The service was excellent. The waiter was helpful making recommendations and he even offered me a to-go cup for my soda! Next time I will try the Mushroom Swiss Burger for lunch read more

yaaassssşssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss love their fish lowkey and im normally super picky

First of all let me just say I don't know why it took me so long to try this place out. I've lived down the street for two years and I just became a fan of this place. The owner I think or manager was such a sweet heart and provided my fiancé and I with great service. I got the chilaquiles and he got the chorizo breakfast burrito so delicious!!! The pancake was huge! So good and fluffy it melted in our mouths. We went on Sunday and wasn't busy at all so it was a nice ambience. read more

The food is fantastic! The restaurant is a hidden gem. Breakfast-The Roman is my favorite. The owners treat you like family too.

IF I COULD GIVE 0 STARS I WOULD. has raw pancake mix, RUDE EMPLOYEES & horrible customer service. they rushed us to order & they rushed on giving our food & it was uncooked. The only person who was amazing at customer service was the nice lady with piercings & gave us our satisfaction. never coming here again! read more

Ordered breakfast plate and French toast for take out. It appears I should have just eaten at the restaurant it was lively in there and full of people. I even saw mimosas? The food was good the French toast is not like traditional French toast but it was good. read more

Great location with great service. Server helped pick out foods which by the way were great. Had the Emile's Special and couldn't be happier. read more

Love this spot. Such a good place for anything, love their breakfast menu. Service is super fast and efficient, food is always delicious, staff is always so kind. Been going to this place since kindergarten, the welcoming atmosphere has never faltered. read more

Amazing and welcoming experience! I come here very often and have a great time every visit. The food is delicious and the menu has a wide variety of options. My craving are always fulfilled. The employees are very nice and efficient. I recommend Emle's for breakfast, lunch, and dinner! read more

I used to come here long ago, not often but we did visit from time to time. This last time, I could not believe the prices. I get it, inflation, the cost of everything is insane. However, I ordered a Thai chicken salad. It barely had any flavor. Romaine lettuce, cucumber, chicken and tortilla strips and peanuts. A super light peanut vinaigrette that I couldn't even tell if there was dressing. $16 and no flavor was a bummer. A Thai salad should have some kick, maybe cabbage, cilantro, a little acid like lime juice, vinegar...some flavor. And the crispy wonton topping, not tortilla strips:/ My mom got the Benedict which looked pretty sad. read more

I rarely write reviews; Emle's is an exeplerary restaurant that I will give 5 stars. Ambiance, service, food tops them all. The mgr. Ahed and the staff are overwhelmingly friendly, no snubs or attidues & they didnt disappoint me. I recommend Emle's with all my heart. Brunch is fantastic & menu prices are amazingly reasonable . Thank you Emle's. Job well done. read more

This place is definitely a hidden gem in Northridge. I've come here a good amount of times and each time has been pretty good. They have a very extensive menu and try to order something different every time I go. The food is usually pretty good but there are some dishes that I probably wouldn't get again. Not that those dishes were bad or anything but they have stronger dishes in my opinion. I definitely have to say that their burgers are really really good. They have great breakfast items, sandwiches and everything too, but those burgers are top. The staff is a great group of people. They're always very friendly and attentive even when they're busy. That is always a plus and definitely know how hard it is to run a business that deals with food. Never easy but they do it well. My only complaint is that whenever I get anything that comes with fries, you don't get very many fries. I do wish you got a little more fries with the plates that come with them. Otherwise I do enjoy coming to this place with my fam and would recommend it! read more

Had the Philly cheese stake was very good and they also had good service! Very much recommend it

First time trying this place and I loved it! Came here with a group of 5 on a Sunday morning. Short wait time. The service was excellent. The waiter helped us choose some good items on the menu. The portions are pretty big and fairly priced. The only bad thing I have to say is about the bathroom. Wasn't clean and smelled really bad. Other than that I highly recommend this place and will come back to try other things on the menu read more

Loved it! Extensive menu, big portions. Different cookies from around the world. Can't wait to go back and try other stuff.

BLTA Benedict & The Frenchie didn't disappoint. The staff was quick to help but didn't rush while we enjoyed a long brunch.

The food was deliciously amazing! We loved the ambiance and service coming from the staff!

First time that we have been here since ownership changed. So happy that we went there today. Service was great, food was even better and the place was packed. Glad to see we have a new local regular spot to go for breakfast, lunch or dinner. And had a nice chat with the owner, Sam. We will be back again and again. read more

If there was a place worth a review, this place is it. Food - Big portions. Everything costs more these days, and restaurants either raise their price, slim down the portion, or do both. Well, I'm not sure which way this place went, but it's definitely worth the price. The food is tasty. Service - They have the friendly, family-owned feel. They come by to check on you time to time. It's worth the tip. There was a 10% off Yelp coupon, but I ignored it. I was more than happy to do without it. read more

Emle's is the perfect breakfast spot. My sister said it was her favorite place and I can totally understand why. The restaurant gave coastal vibes with big windows that brought in lots of light. The man who took our order and served us was so kind and friendly! Our plates with huge portions and we left very full. I ordered the French morning tart which was a little pricey but totally worth the money. The puff pastry was filled with veggies like bell peppers and mushrooms, with sunny side eggs topped with Gruyère cheese. It looked super bougie and tasted delicious. They also have gluten free options! My husband got dutch apple pancakes, 3 fluffy pancakes that looked like a layered cake. So yummy! I can't wait until we come back. read more

What I really loved about this place was how unique and healthy the food was. A nice Mediterranean place with some Californian dishes. My wife had the Quinoa Benedict. I had the Earth Burrito, which was resells good! Only change, I would have added a vinegar based hot sauce. The servers were really nice and attentive. Great suggestions too on their menu. I can't wait to try them again. read more

Definitely worth a try!! The food is good, and the service is great!! It has been hard for me to find a good breakfast place in the valley that also serves alcohol. They serve mimosas and beer which is great, and so far everything I've tried I've been very happy with!! Today when came in (it's only my third time here) I sat down and they waiter met me at the table with a menu, I said "I think I know what I want" and he replied with my exact order!! This is pretty impressive because the last time I was here was easily two months ago. It's the little things like being remembered that go a long way, they were quick to get my order out and everyone is so pleasant! I will definitely be back, and you should go too, you won't be disappointed!! read more
