We could not be more proud of our Emmett team! To have achieved a finalist run in our first year is beyond anything we could have hoped for, and lays a foundation on which we will continue to push ourselves and strive for excellence on every plate and with every guest experience.

We’ve never been more sure that someone has that commitment than we are of Orisa. Lend your voice and join us and in supporting her journey, and helping this talented young chef achieve her goals.

Allow us to reintroduce ourselves!
We’re .evan.snyder and , co-owners of Emmett, our home-away-from-home on a cozy corner in the Olde Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia.
Emmett is a deeply personal project for us, a canvas on which we tell the stories of our families, our upbringing, and our vision for what an independent Philly restaurant can be. Chef Evan’s Turkish heritage, mixed with a childhood spent sitting at Jewish deli counters, intertwines with Julian’s Southern French identity and North African influences to bring you the culinary journey on which every Emmett guest embarks.
So whether you’re grabbing a bite at the bar, or tackling the Tasting Menu in our dining room, feel free to stop us and say hi! We’re here every night, making sure that everyone that walks through our doors feels seen, heard, and satisfied.
And just like at Grandma’s House, all are always welcome. 💚💚
