Emilia's Fort Worth

We had an incredible dining experience at Emilia’s last night and it truly set the bar high. From the ambiance to the final bite, everything was five-star. We started with the cocktails at The Circle Bar, which were expertly crafted and a perfect precursor to the meal. The standout for me was the Wagyu beef—cooked to absolute perfection—paired with their beautifully prepared bravas and a refined, flavorful hummus. The attention to detail in both the plating and the service was evident throughout the evening. Whether you are looking for a sophisticated spot for a special night out or simply want to indulge in high-quality, thoughtfully prepared cuisine, Emilia’s delivers on every front. Highly recommended!

Celebrated our anniversary here. Started off with an Amaretto sour and an IPA, and looked over the new menu. Our table was decorated with flowers and we had a hand written card placed. We had 3 appetizers gifted to us. Burrata, Humus, and Fritto Misto. All three were delicious, although my favorite was the hummus. For entree we enjoyed the ribeye cooked to perfection with a tasty trio sauce, and rigatoni. All pasta is made fresh in house. Lastly we had the basque cheesecake. It was a hefty serving and so good!

My first time at Emilia’s Fort Worth and I’m already planning my next visit. A big part of that is my server, Binh. From the moment he greeted me, something just felt different. He was warm and genuine — the kind of person who makes you feel like you’re in good hands without even trying. When it came to the menu, Binh clearly knew his stuff. He didn’t just rattle off specials — he actually listened to what I was in the mood for and steered me toward dishes that turned out to be exactly right. His recommendations came from a place of real knowledge and enthusiasm, not just upselling. We have a lovely conversation about his previous work experience, and I have to say I’m impressed! What I appreciated most was how he managed to make me feel completely taken care of without hovering or rushing. As a first-time guest, that kind of attentiveness means everything. I never once felt like just another table. Binh’s professionalism and charisma are the real deal. He made what was already a great meal into something I’ll actually remember. If you go to Emilia’s — and you should — I hope you get him as your server.

Had an amazing experience at Emilia's! The ambiance is warm and inviting with perfect lighting that sets the tone for a relaxed but elevated dining experience. It’s the kind of place where you immediately feel comfortable but know you’re in for something special. The service really stood out, our server paid close attention to every detail without ever being overbearing. Everything felt intentional and well timed. The appetizers were unique and full of flavor, not your typical starters which was appreciated. For my main course, I had the Duck Cannelloni and it was absolutely amazing. Perfectly cooked, rich, and packed with flavor. Truly fire. Highly recommend and I’ll definitely be coming back!

Had an amazing dinner at Emilia’s in the Crescent Hotel (Fort Worth) and tried several things off their summer menu!! Everything was so well thought out and delicious. After chatting with the staff, you can really tell how intentional and passionate they are about the dishes and the ingredients that go into them. Our server, Kevin, was kind and knowledgeable. We even got the chance to chat with Chef Preston, which made the experience even more special. He shared that the meatballs are made with a special blend of six different proteins (wowww!!) and finished with this creamy house-made parmesan cheese foam. The grilled bread that comes with it is perfect for layering with the meatballs, sauce, and cheese for a complete bite! Arancini has always been a favorite of mine, so we naturally had to order it. I really enjoyed the hint of creamy eggplant inside that perfectly compliments the cheesy risotto ball. The broccolini was simple but so flavorful, and the pistachio pesto paired with was a standout— I need a jar of it asap!! The potato gnocchi was rich, with a bold romesco sauce balanced by creaminess. The whole bronzino was light, flaky, and not fishy at all. The skin was perfectly crispy and paired well with the mild, buttery fish inside. I’m not even usually into cooked fish, but I’d 100% order this again. The creamy leeks underneath made a really nice savory sauce to scoop up with the fish and veggies (plus shishitos yummm!!) The braised beef rib was super tender, and the buckwheat polenta cake was a unique and nice pairing for the dish. It reminded me of a savory cornbread with a crispy exterior and soft center. For dessert, we had the tiramisu and white chocolate cheesecake. Both were great, but I had to try the tiramisu since it’s one of my all-time favorites! Made the traditional way, with thick layers of mascarpone cream, coffee-soaked ladyfingers, and a lush layer of cocoa powder on top — it was a fantastic closer to the evening. Wine-wise, I absolutely loved the Auntsfield Sauvignon Blanc — juicy, crisp, and without being too sweet. A great summer wine, I loved it so much I even asked our server, Kevin if I could take a pic of the bottle haha! Every dish felt thoughtfully crafted and full of heart. Highly recommend Emilia’s for a special night out or if you’re looking for a meal that’s both elevated and approachable in an elegant yet cozy setting!
