The Scene: Emmy's oozes funkiness. Patrons sit at the bar, sipping Chianti or fine malt liquor, waiting to score a seat among the ramshackle booths lining the walls. A communal table suits big groups or friendly single diners. Hand-scribbled menus adorn the tables; the wine list hangs on a chalkboard. An occasional jazz ensemble or DJ completes the art-house aura. The Food: For a self-styled spaghetti joint, the kitchen kicks out a mean duck pt, paired with lightly toasted brioche and house-made orange marmalade. Of course, most diners go straight for the cheap, decent spaghetti and meatballs, but more adventurous types head for cross-cultural specials such as seared ahi with chilies, pickled ginger and crispy yucca chips.
