What Francisco Santibañez doesn't like about Emilio's Ballato:
First of all, if you want to go, you should only go to knock it out of your list and say I 've tried it , as the place was very cold, food was overpriced and the service is dreadful.Good things:1) The house sharing platter was really good.Bad things:1) Food and the red wine were cold (which happened to the table next to us as well). I believe they were using frozen ravioli.2) Prices too high for the quality offered.3... View all feedback. What Maria Kamilli likes about Emilio's Ballato:
It’s worth it. It’ll love it up to everything you’ve heard, every reel you’ve seen and every friend that’s raved about this spot, it’s just that good. Old school classic Italian done to perfection. Just know you’re in for a long wait if you don’t have some sort of connection to a reservation. *The veal Milanese with vodka sauce is pricey but so delicous. View all feedback.
