Ermilio's Italian Home Cooking In Eureka Spr

The establishment itself is very nice. Everything seemed clean and neat. The young hostess was short with her answers and somewhat rude. It was not what we were expecting with first impressions. Not what we are accustomed to in the south. The waitress was friendly and efficient; however, she gave the impression she was rushing our daughter since she was eating slowly. The salad was not a salad because it only consisted of iceberg lettuce and one cherry tomato. The bread was tough, and the tomato basil sauce with the main dish was very bland. To top things off, my credit card was returned with food on it because the waitress used the black glove that she was wearing for everything. Due to the totality of our experience, I would not recommend this place unless you want a subpar experience and mediocre food. The vast majority of my reviews are very positive, but I couldn’t do it here—too many negatives.

Brutally honest review here. I really wanted to give it 5 stars but I just can 't for a few reasons. Ermilios is hit or miss. This is the 4th time we have dined here over the last 4 years. I highly recommend dining in. 2 years ago we got food to go and it takes away from the deliciousness. Food was absolutely delicious this time. The bread with garlic is to die for. 5 stars for the food 's flavor. 1 star on the regular side salad. It 's a plate of mixed lettuce with a cherry tomato thrown in. I watched waitresses carrying back plates full of it, like people weren 't eating it. Maybe make the regular side salad more appealing so people eat it. Next time we will upgrade to the Ceasar salad like we usually do. As for portion sizes, my husband was less than impressed. For chicken marsala, $25 a plate I agree, the pasta should cover the plate. His portion seemed very small compared to mine. He basically got a half plate of food. Overall yes we will probably eat here again when we come back in the fall. I just hope we get a different waitress, she was stressed and clunky, and slammed everything down on our table that she delivered. It was off putting. She seemed a little frantic and wasn 't managing her service very well in order. Also we believe she possibly served 2 beers to a minor. I cringed when I heard him and the whole table tell her he didn 't have his ID and she decided to serve him anyway. Risky business as I thought he looked about 19, but my age guage could be way off. He was at the loud table of 4 next to us ordering cocktails and appetizers, ordered their food after us and were finished eating and ordering dessert as we finally got our food. We were glad to get out of there as soon as we ate our food. Opted not to order our usual bottle of Riesling Hougue. Delicious sweet white wine by the way, I encourage you to try a glass of it, which is $10 per glass. Bottles are $32 which is a bit pricey considering they are only $12 at the liquor store. This review isn 't to discourage you from eating and drinking here. Just beware, it 's not as magical as some of the other reviews have made it sound.

The vibe here is so nice! It’s a small Italian restaurant in an old house. Very intimate! Service was exceptional. The server recommended mashing up the roasted garlic with the butter to spread over the fresh bread. it was so good!! also the caesar salad is definitely worth the up charge. It is so authentic tasting!! My wife and I got the pork chop and tuscan chicken pasta. Neither of the dishes were bursting with flavor or salt. Perhaps maybe the classics (spaghetti or chicken parm) would better. For the overall vibe and experience, this place is worth it. But I have had much better Italian elsewhere.

As always the food is delicious here! We had a large group of 11 people that they were able to seat within a reasonable time. They always have quite a bit of seating throughout that can accommodate you while having a drink from the bar until your table is ready. When we sat down the food was prompt and delicious. We had the pork chop as recommended and it was so tender. Never disappointed when we visit!

So delicious and some of the best Italian food I've ever had. Just sad that we didn't find it until our last night.
