The food was amazing. Easily the best pizza in Charlottesville. Love the atmosphere and the little dinosaur toys to keep the kids busy. My family will return again and again. read more

The atmosphere is incredible and the food is even better. To top it off, the service from Justin was stellar! Try their wings!

Our first experience here was great. Pizza was very good. Waiter Justin was very friendly and polite. Definitely would recommend.

Truly delicious. I am not usually craving pizza but today decided to do something different. I am glad I did! They have this solid lunch special where you get two squares and a small salad for about $14. I ordered the Founders which was absolutely amazing. The way the crust is crispy crunchy and flavor profile of spicy jalapeños with hot honey?! Say no more. Its very clean I side and the service is friendly. I highly recommend read more

Emmy Squared Pizza - Lunch special The Founders - Burgers Near Me - Charlottesville, Virginia

I have only ordered through Uber Eats with a 25 minute+ delivery time (not a negative, just pointing out that even after the 30 minutes, and each time the food has been great). Burger is really great. Spicy Chicken sandwich (with two pieces) is almost too much food. Either go big or go home mentality and it's appreciated. Pizzas have been solid as well. Pizza's can become expensive with the modifications but so is running a restaurant. Want Extra, Pay extra. Want cheap food, buy cheap food. Crushed the brownie last night too. Solid. A recommendations: source an additional to-go container for the brownie so it can be delivered whole. Or don't offer it. It being delivered broken up could irk people. By my guess it should fit in the burger container? Btw - perfect size container for the sandwiches. read more

Can definitely appreciate offering diversity in pizza styles that Emmy Squared has brought to Charlottesville. The Detroit style packs a flavor profile and consistency that is unique and tasteful. The toppings were plentiful and the pizza was well-made. My biggest point of contention is the value. An 8"x10" cheese pizza is $18.50 and 6 finger length garlic cheese bread sticks are $13. Both should be just over half this price. For that price, I would take Pi-Napo or Lampo for quality and value, any day. For the steep price, not matching the size and volume, will likely not return but definitely worth a try during unique occasions. read more

The pizza has a perfectly cooked crust that is crispy but not hard, the sauce has great flavor, and the different topping and sauce options make for a lot of customizable flavors. The service is quick and attentive. Pepperoni or sausage makes the pizza greasier than I would prefer, but the same is true anywhere, and the other topping options do not make it too greasy. read more

Amazing, 10/10 no notes. Would highly recommend to anyone who loves a good pizza. We went back in like early February for lunch and it was just us & four other tables. Ambiance was immaculate and our server was very knowledgeable and friendly, had some great recommendations! Left beyond stuffed and quite pleased with the entire experience. read more

This is a strip mall location that isn't among Charlottesville's most charming, though the interior is fine enough. I stopped in seeking a seasonal special with pesto and banana peppers. If I'm being honest, it wasn't the best pizza I've had in various visits to different Emmy Squared locations; the onions tasted a little bit off and the sauce was too tangy for a pizza for me. The crust was as crisp as you'd hope for this style of pizza, and Detroit-style pizza is likely new to the Charlottesville area and it is a pleasure that I recommend trying. I also got a brussels sprout salad, and while you don't always go to pizza places for the salads, the combination of flavors in this one is fantastic. Takeout was a straightforward experience. This is not a place that has a lot to offer for people who don't do dairy. read more

The food was very good and the service was attentive. Very clean restaurant. Pizza was very light and airy which is good for a deep crust style pizza. read more

Awful service and attitude. Horrible. Ordered delivery from this place through one of THEIR arranged services. Delivery went a wrong address over two miles away notwithstanding it was clearly to the Kimpton Forum Hotel at UVA. Food comes back to restaurant and gets set out again. Comes an hour late. Pizza was cold. Restaurant thinks they can absolve themselves by pointing to the delivery service. I heard the guy over the phone basically washing his hands of the situation. Well, it says "Emmy Squared" on my AMEX statement and that's the vendor that's not going to get paid when I block the charge. read more

I liked Emmy squared a lot and I'd be back in. The ambiance is business casual. It's not a true casual place because they are a bit more dressed up with table settings. Servers will offer still and sparkling water. So it's appropriate for a business lunch but still is family friendly. Just not as casual as Christian's, five guys or other true casual places in cville. Service was awesome. Our server was brand new but was polite fast and super friendly. The staff he leaned on for support were also really nice. All the food was awesome. Hawaiian pizza was our fav. Our burger fanatic friends rated their burger a 7-8/10. Their fav in cville for reference is riverside or jack browns. They said this burger is more expensive and doesn't come with sides, hence the knock down, but taste wise it's great. They did say it's super greasy so we ready for it to be a bit messy. The apps are all awesome, mozz sticks were fantastic. Waffle fries with cheese were so good. 2 entrees and an app came out to $50, drinks and other things are more expensive so expect to pay about $30pp. Overall, the food is good and I'd be back. read more

Great pizza and service. Stopped in after a tour of UVA and enjoyed our meal. Square deep dish pizza only

Quick service, clean location, and our MVP pizza came out perfectly cooked. Recommend a visit!

SERVICE We walked in on a late evening and while the mall plaza was busy we were able to park outside. Walked in and were quickly seated at a table indoors. We did not choose the patio. Our server came by with drinks and offered us a chance to ask questions. We weren't super hungry so decided to order a XL size or the 10 slice version of the Deluxe. Our waters were delivered but needs some extra prodding to be refilled. FOOD After 15-20 minutes, our pizza was delivered and placed on a rack. This spot supposedly delivers a delicious Detroit-style thick crust but also the foldable Brooklyn pizza mix, served in a stylish, comfortable setting. It definitely had generous toppings with spicy sausage, fresh peppers, and mushrooms and the expected Midwestern cheese type. The pizza was not as doughy or structurally sound as Detroit style pizza...and definitely needed a fork and knife to eat...but still delicious. It is light on the tomato sauce which some may not like as much. AMBIANCE It's definitely a space that is super casual and modern with a bar kind of inviting vibe. Large windows and communal tables makes for a friendly atmosphere, perfect for groups or solo diners or takeout orders. read more

Food, service, excellent! Love the Detroit style pizza! Justin was fantastic! Highly recommend. The salads are delicious too!

Had a wonderful dinner of pizza and delicious Caesar salad at Emmy Squared located in the Barracks Rd area. I had the Angel pizza that has ricotta cheese and pesto. So good. The crust is wonderful. The restaurant space is very nice. Clean and upscale in appearance. Will definitely go again and highly recommend. read more

Tried the DC locations a few years ago and was curious when this opened up in charlottesville. I thought the vibe was more casual in DC but they seemed to try for a fine dining experience here? The waiter offered us still or sparkling and we thought that was our only option for water (instead of just mentioning tap) so we paid extra for the saratoga water bottles unfortunately. Margharita pizza was lacking and felt like it needed more sauce. Overall impression was that they need to figure out what theyre going for! read more

Fantastic food - loved the square pizza. - quick take out service - will definitely be returning.

The food was amazing and Justin was a great server! The Big Ang and Big Hawaiian are both 10/10

Amazing food! Best pizza I've had in years. Fresh toppings, deep dish but crispy edges, not heavy or greasy at all. Salad not overly dressed, fresh. Great service. read more

Pizza is delicious and great service. If you like brownies for dessert this one is very good.

The pizza itself was absolutely delicious! We went earlier in the evening for happy hour, and while the food was great, the experience was a little off. When I asked about the happy hour deals advertised on a sign outside, our waitress seemed unsure about them and gave us incorrect prices, which we later realized didn't match what was listed. Because of that, I ended up skipping a cocktail, which was a bit disappointing. That said, the decor was stunning--lots of natural light and a really inviting atmosphere. I also appreciated the variety on the menu. I highly recommend the Good Paulie and the vodka pizza--both were amazing, and I loved the Detroit-style crust. Overall, fantastic pizza, but the service could use a little more attention to detail, especially during happy hour. Would definitely come back, just with clearer expectations! read more

The Cheesy Garlic sticks are the best! Good portion for the price. Quality is consistent, have ordered in and take out.

Meatsiah- perfect for a meat lover Big Hawaiian- for the lover of pineapple (like myself) on pizza. Enjoyed the thick cut pepperoni, fresh cooked bacon, and generous amount of pineapple MVP- Each bite is a flavor explosion in your mouth. So much going on, all at once, from the texture, to the flavor, to the sesame seed crispy crust, to the gooey cheese, to the combination of vodka sauce, red sauce, and parsley pesto. Definitely an unforgettable pie Pineapple chili glazed crunchers- perfectly fried and seasoned well. I would choose this flavor over the sriracha crystal glaze. Sriracha Crystal Glazed wings- I wasn't a fan, the wings lacked seasoning Waffle fries- fried hard but well seasoned Chopped cheese burger- it didn't really stand out to me and I believe it was missing ketchup but I enjoyed the pretzel bun Cheesy garlic bread- seasoned well and soft, but greasy I plan on returning to try Le Big Matt & other pizzas. The MVP is gold read more

Food was okay, but service was a mess. And the place is very loud. Much better local pizza around.

Emmy Squared has amazing pizza and cocktails! I strongly recommend the margarita and vodka margarita pizzas. The staff is extremely friendly although service can be a bit slow. The restaurant seems very clean and well decorated as well. The only thing to be weary about is promotions. They advertised free pizza for the first 25 people at their grand opening. We rearranged our weekend and arrived an hour before they opened to find out they had given away the wristbands hours before they announced they would because people apparently came super early when it was raining. It's kind of suspicious, a little unfair, and very disappointing but otherwise a great place for pizza. read more

The pizza is excellent! Plus great service and atmosphere! Very clean! We will definitely go back!!

Wandered in here with my family a few weeks ago and was super impressed by the staff and the food. This spot is incredibly family friendly - down to toys and crayons on the table. But also adult friendly (full bar, delicious salads). The pizzas were creative and fresh. We'll be back for sure. I'm glad barracks Road brought a family friendly sit down restaurant that doesn't feel as much like a chain as some of the historical spots. read more
