    The Founders
    Carla H.

    Love this place! It is a cute, casual, and delicious restaurant nestled on third Avenue in the upper east side. vibes are always good and service is always good. For the food: Le Big Matt - the burger is really good. I think it lives up to the hype actually.... I've heard the one at Emily is just as good, so I gotta go try it as it is their sister restaurant I believe. While it is definitely on the pricey side, it doesn't feel significantly worse than a lot of other burgers in the city, given the quality and the size. as a bonus, it comes with great waffle fries. Pizza - while this is technically their main thing, I think a lot of people actually go for the burger. That being said, the pizza is great. This time, I got the "Founders", but I've tried a couple other ones and they are all fantastic. The trick is really to get their lunch special; it's a great deal. The pizza freezes and reheat really well if you have leftovers, but you might not as they are good and aren't actually that large, so you might just finish it all. Totally worth a visit if you're uptown or want a good thick crust pizza and burger without all the fuss!

    Amazing drinks and pizza. Super kid friendly -- great kids menu with sides and a drink. Came in after the museum for lunch. The pizza was delicious!

    Was looking for a spot in the neighborhood for dinner after a concert in Central Park. I had heard from several people that Emmy Squared had great gluten-free pizza and it did not disappoint! Great cocktails also. Larger space than expected, plenty of seats inside. Friendly and helpfull staff. There were moments where they were very busy though so it took a little while to get someone's attention in those moments.

    Cocktails good, pizza great, best burger in the city! Manager Keith very hospitable !

    A group of us 4 Arrived at 4:30 to an empty restaurant. Hot honey pizza- meh not a fan of the honey but friends wanted it. Actually the burrata cheese was very good and balanced the taste fairly. VIP - recommended by waiter. When it came out he likened it to a Christmas tree because of the green and red sauces - Beautiful. And delicious. All 3 sauces are my favorite. The peppers made it the cherry on top. Can't believe I'm saying this for such expensive pizza but I would come back to try the others.

    Love the ambiance and service. I usually make a reservation ahead of time to get seated easily. They are accommodating with children and also have a baby changing table in the bathroom. I love their lemon pepper wings with one of their pizzas. All of their pizza options are tasty. Great spot!

    We have been here many times. Ordered takeout many times. It seems to be going downhill. The chicken nuggets, which I raved about have not been good since that one time. The ones they served to us were likely sitting under a heat lamp for a while. It was more batter than chicken, and it seemed re-fried because they got cold. The chicken in the chicken parm sandwich was so dry, I would not eat that again. It was definitely not freshly cooked. The burger bun was way too small for the burger and fell apart. There was not much meat there. They compensate for this tiny burger by giving you half a try of cold fries. For the amount they charge on this food, it is really disappointing. Basically, this is fast food at dining in prices. I am not returning anymore.

    12 dollar Caesar Salad

    Pizza is alright but for price it's kind of hilarious. Got a salad for 12 dollars and probably feeds a 2 year old. Insane to price 7 pieces of lettuce for 12 bucks but go off.

    We came here for dinner to meet up with our friends and I'm so glad we did. Everything we ordered was delicious - from the cheese sticks to the pizzas to our sangria! Our service was attentive and accommodating with allergies. Plus it was lively and warm here to help escape from the evening chill.

    This is the $20 Caesar salad chopped with chicken

    I ordered from here one of the items was a Chopped Caesar salad with crispy chicken. It came I chopped in a little box with 10 pieces of shredded roaming, lettuce, dressing, cheese, and little plastic on top of the lettuce plastic containers. The hard chicken wasn't another little box sliced into five strips. It was rockhard I would not recommend ordering from here. Beware what they show you is not what it looks like when you get it.

    This is a nice little spot for a weekday lunch in the UES. We had made a reservation, but could have got a table easily as it wasn't busy late on a Friday lunchtime. The staff is super friendly and helpful, guiding us to the lunch menu with smaller portions and giving great advice. Would definitely return when it's a little more bustling. Bathrooms are down steep steps so patrons with accessibility needs may need to check before booking.

    Pricey but great food! The pizza was small but filling and the pesto garlic cheese sticks are so delicious!

    The Emmy double stack burger and fries.

    Hey you can't expect a takeout burger and fries to look "wow". But the burger flavor was delicious. I ordered the Le Big Matt + Fries. I had a taste of the plain burger with nothing on it and one with sauce. Both were delicious - it's the grass fed beef. As for the fries it was just ok. So you get what you pay for in it's quality.

    The pizza was SO good but the price for the size was a little pricey. Other than the that I think this place was really good.

Also, an obvious side note- You wonder how a place that's been open for, I believe, a year and a half has 1500 Google Reviews? It's because they give you a free soda if you write a 5-star review, so I guess if you have a palate for Polar sodas, you can give them a five on that site. If you're going to get anything, go for the tender combo, as their sliders, burgers, and buns are bad. Anyway, it's nice to find a Zabiha Halal spot that serves burgers and other American grub in this neighborhood. I used to frequent somewhat similar spots back in the Arabic neighborhood I lived near in Brooklyn, and it was nice to see this place open a while back. I have tried a handful of things here, and honestly, it's gotten worse every time. The first time, I got the tenders consisting of six pieces for $14, which is honestly very reasonable. The thinner pieces were a tad dry, as the batter had become overly fried, but it's hard to complain about the price point. They also came with a perfectly alright sauce called Mambo, which they list as spicy but is as hot as a spicy McNugget or similar with a light sweetness. The second time, I had the Slider Combo for $7.99, which came with two chicken sliders (spicy if wanted,) fries, and a Polar soda. The fries were honestly nice and better quality than those at any nearby fast-food place. The sliders were dreadful, however. They were dry with overly breaded chicken with no pickles or anything else to help, so I guess that's why it comes with a soda or water. This doesn't help the even worse bun, which was dry as well, and makes a Martin's potato roll look like a Rolls-Royce. The Polar drink was, as expected, a worse Diet Coke. The last time, and the last time I'll ever stop in here, I got the Classic Burger, which is their smash patty with American cheese, holy sauce, lettuce, tomato, and onion. This was the worst burger I've had in ages and easily the worst smashburger, with the meat somehow being dry. I guess the bun was different as it was larger, but also as the top was charred better than the burger meat. Maybe the signature burger for $4 more is better, but I'm never going to stop for it if they're careless enough to burn a burger bun. 3 stars for the chicken tenders due to the deal. 2 stars for the slider combo, as the fries were decent. 0.5 stars for the burger. 2/5

There is currently construction and scaffolding in front of the place, but you'll see signage where to go at the opening of the scaffolding. We walked in, past the bar and checked in. We were seated within 5 minutes. I ordered a bourbon old-fashioned and we ordered crab rangoon as a starter. There were a lot of them and the sweet chili sauce was great. For my entree, I ordered the vodka rigatoni and a side of buttered broccoli. The vodka rigatoni was really good - liked the flavor and a decent size of pasta. The broccoli was really good for some reason to me. Also tried the truffle mac and cheese which was incredibly rich and tasted great. As a dessert, we had the chocolate pie which was dense, rich, and topped with a huge dollop of whipped topping. I really liked the atmosphere of the place, loud roaring 20s style with jazz playing. Plus I kept finding myself checking out the mural on the wall. Try it for yourself - but worth the fight to get a table.
