Words can not describe how perfect the chef had made our two plates. One was; meatloaf wrapped in bacon with rice pilaf and ((mixed steamed, I believe)) veggies. And the other was; medium well steak tips with mashed potatoes and again, the same veggies. The veggies came with broccoli, onions, carrots and red peppers. The mixture was phenomenal.
The meatloaf wrapped in bacon was to die for as I would put it. Succulent and juicy, not dry at all. Cooked with a slight crisp on the edges. No pink, in the middle which was great too!
The steak tips were cooked correctly, which is super awesome. I dont like when you go to a restaurant and they are unsure of how to properly cook your meat to your liking. Even though we ordered it medium well, it was still nice and juicy, tender, but cooked all the way through, just the way we like it!
The mashed potatoes where actually mashed, which is great. No one likes a chunky mashed, haha. And they were nice and creamy, soft, and had just the right amount of butter and a slight seasoning to add to the flavor!
Also, we had orderd the pretzel bites. I believe it was suppose to come with some sort of dipping sauce. But when it came down to this one minor mishap, that they forgot or maybe I was suppose to ask for it, who knows? Either way the perfectly sea salted and lightly buttered, very soft pretzel sticks where absolutely delicious. Never had a better baked pretzel and I'm not joking!! Even if the sauce was suppose to be included, I probably wouldn't of used it anyways. The pretzels were perfect as is and didn't need all that extra jazz, anyways.

Enough about the food, the service was amazing too, couldn't have been better! All of the people I encountered during my short stay to receive my to-go order, were more than helpful.. the two waitresses. The chef. The bartender. And i believe maybe the kitchen manager, as it appeared in my opinion. Everyone was upbeat, smiling, friendly, and very helpful! They made sure I had all my utensils, napkins, salt and pepper and my ketchup as a condiment. The smiles and beautifully rich atmosphere is what really did me in, to top it all off...following after such great food and service!
Too bad there is not an "Emerald Rose" near my hometown. ...Looks like we will be visiting Billerica just for this sole reason!
Well a big, bright, shiny five star rating is in order for this phenomenal restaurant. Again. Thank you to all whom have helped me with preparing our lunch today. Your awesome and deserve a nice pat on the back :)
