Emeril's - Cozumel

Excellent tasting menu. I had the vegetarian tasting menu. Everything was very good.

This was a complete surreal experience. It took me nearly 5 days to sort out how to write this review. We dressed smart and to impress with unique style in a linen suit and gothic dress. From the very start I had an original and unique experience. Without selecting the table originally we were sat ring side at a table facing a full wall of glass overlooking the kitchen. Oddly only two were available and a solo diner sat at the other. I am still curious how we were luck to watch the chefs work. We then were invited back for a tour of the kitchen and a presentation of fresh selections of what would be prepared. I saw no one else get the same tour. Why we were the only ones to get that I dont know. We both chose different tasting menus. The classic and contemporary or local. Being given several more tastings ahead of the substantial dinner. Everything was beyond comparison and though the wine pairs were unique and may not be preffered on their own alone they were expertly and deliciously paired for each course. What took me 5 days to write this was to sort out what happened. Dish #5 was a pan seared rainbow trout with almonds. Tbe second I took a bite I was consumed with emotions of nostalgia. The last time I ever had anything like it was on tbe Brule River of wisconsin as a child being taught flyfishing and enjoying what we caught that day on the hidden cedar built lunchgrounds. I have never cried while eating a dish of any sort but I did over this one. I complimented tbe chef seen on the other side of the glass and he showed gratitude in return. They served us many plates before and after what was on the selected menu and the entire staff was attentive to every need and wish. I was complimented that I stood as a gentleman every time may date left or returned to the table. I was i.pressed they also took care of subtle drops or spills on the table cloth. Defitely opt for the cheese course at the end. It was a wonderful quiet evening where I could enjoy my company where as the next evening at another fancy retaurant we were seated agsinst an obnoxious loud table where I couldnt hear my friend sitting at my shoulder. I will certainly choose Emerils over any other restaurant in NO in the future. Dietary restrictions: Accomodated cilantro allergy.

We were celebrating our 27 anniversary there and did the tasting menu . What an enjoyable experience. Everyone was very professional and service was elite . Ty to everyone for making it a wonderful evening.

Everything exceeded my expectations. Looking forward to dining there again!

This was the most amazing experience we have ever had at a restaurant. From the exceptional service, the unique take on each dish, the exceptional level of detail on every plate and the tour of the kitchen made this such a wonderful evening. We had a court side table with a front row seat to the action and being able to watch everyone prepare our dishes was so fun. We had the classic tasting menu and every bite was perfection. Thank you to the team for giving me a birthday dinner I’ll never forget!
