   Great food and service. We also saw a flamenco show. I'd definitely go back.

   Came in for a Bachelorette party. Staff was super attentive (multiple people checked on our table and made sure our experience was top notch). The flamenco show was impressive and the paella and sangria were delicious!

   Made a dinner reservation for two w/ the flamenco experience. The food was excellent, flavorful and the menu is very interesting. The atmosphere of the restaurant is extremely pleasant, low lighting and has a great aesthetic. Tried the Sangria, a little on the light side but decided to get a glass of Pinot and it was much better. The flamenco show was amazing, it transports you to another dimension. Our waiter was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable, gave us great recommendations. I will be coming back in the near future!

   The food was good. The service was great. The entertainment was intriguing. All in all had a nice time. Only wish the menu had more gluten free friendly options, and a couple more seafood options that didn't involve shellfish. Unfortunately, shellfish allergies extend to octopus, but not calamari. A nice calamari tapas would be good. GF batters taste better and hold up better in presentation anyway and for the prices charged, they'd still make money.

   The food was absolutely superb and the tapas-sized portions allow you to order ALL the things. The flamenco (on Saturdays only) is such a special treat. Emilia is a must-try!

   We arrived early for a 6pm reservation. The restaurant was very quiet. We ordered wine and food. The manager offered us an upgrade on the wine at no extra cost because they ran out of the one we wanted. The calamar stew was delicious, served with fresh toasted bread and chick peas. However not stew-like, the sauce was tasty. Grilled octopus was crunchy on the outside, tender and savory when you bite into it, served over flavorful mash potatoes. If you want something a little more filling, the shitake with brioche is good. We stayed to watch the Flamenco dancers who were energetic and skillful. We enjoyed a leisurely meal at Emilia by Nai. At no time did we feel rushed even though we were there for a little over 2 hours.

   Open Table’s website listed a totally different menu and had few items we could actually order. The food was disappointing. Will not be returning.

   I just returned from Basque area and this just brought me back. I don’t get why they are not more crowded. The food and service was excellent. Food was perfectly balanced and the space is super cute and has great light with an open kitchen area.

    The service was impeccable. Every bite of every order was filled with flavor. It’s clear that the chef/owner takes great care in maintaining a exceptionally high degree of quality in both the cuisine and the service. Absolutely no complaints. A perfect meal.
