I went to Sweet Emily's last week and the food was delicious... I still think of the coffee rubbed chicken Arepas.. Ohhhh Crispy arepas made with Polenta.. not traditional but excellent...and there is the Grilled Caesar Salad.. yes grilled, unconventional but again delicious. And of course there are the drinks.. a smooth blackberry mojito and an excellent Jalaberry Margarita.. and they have a full bar for whatever you might desire?
And the best part of it all are the prices? I know you don?t want to really spend money in this economy but Sweet Emily?s will not break your budget... I will be there again.
Pros: Food, ambiance, drinks and prices.
Cons: Too far from Brooklyn but I'm willing to travel
