"The $31 burger at Emily comes with french fries, but it also comes with cornichons, for when you get to your second bite and realize you desperately need something to cut through all the (very impressive) richness. It’s a legendary burger, with a thick patty, special sauce, cheddar, and a mountain of caramelized onions, all on a glossy pretzel bun. Every couple at this classic Clinton Hill weeknight date spot shares one of these burgers, a pizza, and (maybe) a salad. It’s from the same people behind Emmy Squared, so you can count on all the pizzas being great, too—try The Classic (a plain pie), or the Big Ang, with vodka sauce, ricotta, peppadew peppers, and meatballs." - willa moore, bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, tiffany yannetta, neha talreja
