Emerson Hotel

Classic open faced steak sandwich

Always steady and dependable. Old school, good menu and service.

Easy in and quick service. Great place to go with a family that has younger kids. It is very family friendly. Good variety food offerings to please everyone in the family. The staff is nice too. They have live music and a great outdoor porch for warmer weather. Inside is need of some renovations but if you can ignore that you'll enjoy your time spent there.

Amazing and so delicious food!! The servant Justine was just fabulous!!! I love it. I can't wait to go back again and make my stomach happier with their delicious food!! Yummy. Very family oriented restaurant. Very clean and so comfortable. Very warm place!! It became one of my favorite restaurants!! Woohoo!! -Vasquez Family.

Good spot for pub fare and comfort food.

Good food & nice atmosphere.

A casual local place that has good food and drinks at fair pricing.

I like this place! They give awesome meals, they have a nice menu, The chef in that spot is a professional, I love a lot tasting all their dishes. The food is always of high class, the attitude towards the visitors is good. I visit often this place and I was never disappointed. I recommend it to all my friends.

Food was fantastic as always. However the hostess was snippy and the waiter was forgetful. He did not deliver a few of the items we requested but was very nice. He tried very hard, but I think he was given stations that were far apart and in different rooms.

Hometown restaurant. Great local food. Great place for a function. We just had a room to ourselves for 16.

Bartender was greAt ,good memories here! Good food and nice atmosphere music and outdoor seating as well..

Love their steak sandwich and spicy skirt steak! Cozy vibe! Good service.

My husband brought me here years ago for a date. I still remember the eggplant parmesan, and how thinly it was sliced. The breading was awesome, and the flavor was perfect. This time we went with his family and enjoyed everything, from appetizers to entrees. They have a simple and classic taste, and a nice variety. I went with mozzarella sticks with marinara for an app, which were tasty, and veggie thin crust pizza for my meal. Super delicious!

This is a great place to go to and chill have a nice dinner and on the weekends they have karaoke and sometimes a band

Wonderful pizza and love their salads especially the gargonzola pear salad. The pizza is amazing and so thin.

Good, friendly service. My burger was cooked just as I asked.

Excellent sliced steak platter as always & thin crust pizza. Good service, good food, good drinks

Certainly a place worth stopping over, the food is excellent and fresh, the cost is affordable and it is regularly well organized there. Great work.

I remember the old Emerson Hotel. Not impressed with the famous slice steak.

Had a wonderful dinner. Steak was great. Server was awesome too.

Dissappointed. Had been planning to come here for a while for a good meal but after really bad service at the start and through the order process we just decided to have a couple of beers and starters and get out quickly... perhaps should have just walked away right at the start. Pity...

The kids menu goes to 7 and under (and I’m 11) most places go up to 10-13 like seriously! And one of the waiters pushed me over because he was trying to get in the kitchen! Service is ok I guess. And last time I came one of the waitresses was SO mean to my mom that disappointed me! But our waiter was kid friendly and very nice! Food was good! 🍝

The Emerson Hotel rocks and the menu is great, so hard to decide what you want!!! Joe does a fantastic job in the bar area!!!

Good quality food. Prepared well. Service was not up to par.

Emerson Hotel Restaurant has been an old familiar hot spot for the locals for decades! Great bands every weekend, spacious indoor rooms separate the bar from the dance floor, outdoor tiki bar affords those who smoke, the convenience of doing so.Famous for its sliced steak open face sandwich, the Emerson is a fun place to party with friends and enjoy the company of other happy customers and wonderful service! My personal favorite place to go on weekends in the town of Emerson, NJ.

Always an amazing place great food and entertainment

I eat in this spot a lot since I work close by. I have to say the customer service is always awesome and they keep the spot well kept regularly. Prices are affordable and they serve big portions.

Amy is the best bartender ever!

The food and service were ahead of my expectations. We surely enjoyed the vibes of this spot. Excellent restaurant to take the family out for dinner.

Always love this place. Chicken parm is big enoigh for 2...

Awesome atmosphere, great service, fantastic food!!!

Very nice and relaxing in the outdoor section. Food is great, especially the wings

Very pleasant very clean and friendly

I expected better. The onion soup wasn't great. I had the rib eye steak and it was very fatty. I've been here several times and this place definitely needs a better cook.

Had the ribeye, excellent, reasonable.

Joe is hands down one of the best

How you closed at 1045 on cinco de mayo

Food is 4.5, service is 0.5. Went with a big group and sat at a table in the bar where there was just one other person. Bartender was clearly annoyed and didn't even come over to take our order, so we walked up to the bar to order, but he was too busy talking to his regular and then checking his phone to look up. After we finally got the drinks he just walked away. We had to ask for menus and again had to go up to the bar to order the food. The food is good, but service was so bad and disrespectful that I think we're done going here for a while.

We all got the sliced steak with sweet potatoe fries & veggies...delicious!!

I tried this spot before with my friend and I am obsessed ever since. I enjoy the awesome atmosphere and delightful food and beverages. Great work.

The steak sandwich is awesome!! Try the soups also.

Fun, friendly, clean venue!

It's a town bar and its also good food

The Waitresses are mean, people get drunk, it smells, people smoke right outside on the deck, and there’s no door when your trying to get a table!!!!!!!! IT SUCKS HERE!!!🤬

food is good people are friendly and the bar outside is fun to hang out at

Service not so good pizza was okay

My family started going here when I was a kid, back in the mid 1950s. It has consistently, through the decades, offered excellent value and food. Still try to get there every few months, even if it means eating alone.

Nice place . Been coming here for years. The sliced steak sandwich probably one of the best around. Service was good. Portions nice size.

Steaks are really good. Beer prices are great. Very nice service.

Classic Continental cuisine. Food was excellent. Not too pricey.
