Awesome!

I would suggest the BBQ Shrimp starter, it's not traditional.

Great deal. Is that every night?

Reviving this thread, as I did the summer menu over the weekend. Fantastic deal. Emeril's was great, as always.

Yeah, I fell asleep on the report. Sorry. It was fantastic as always. Sat at the dining bar overlooking the kitchen. Nice bottle of wine. We had:

1st Course

Fresh Angel Hair Pasta
with Smoked Mushrooms and House Made Tasso Cream Sauce


2nd Course

Yellowfin Tuna - Butter Lettuce Cups
with Pork Belly Confit, Hoisin, Jalapeno and Crisp Rice Noodles

and

Peach Bruschetta
with Burrata Mozzarella, Aged Country Ham,
Arugula Pesto and Chili Balsamico



3rd Course

Fettuccine “Nero”
with Gulf Shrimp, Mussels, Charred Sweet Corn,
Covey Rise Farms Tomatoes, Pancetta and Urchin – Scampi Fondue


4th Course

Two Run Farms Lamb Meatballs
with Yukon Gold Gnocchi, Confit Local Tomato & Okra, Ryal's Goat Feta and Basil

and

Grilled Pork Chop
with Caramelized Sweet Potatoes, Tamarind Glaze
and Green Chile Mole


5th Course

Emeril’s Summer Pudding (blackberry bread pudding))

The lamb meatballs were a little chewy and the summer pudding was grainy (like the bread was too stale). Small quibbles for an overall excellent meal. Portions were generous enough to where we didn't miss the disappointing dessert. It was indeed a great deal.

First, surprised they have so many pasta courses available.

All sounds great but,

This makes me drool.

Did they say how long they are running the special?

Can't beat that price. I've never had a tasting meal under $60-65.

Not sure but if they offer the wine pairing, do that. They tend to know hat they're doing and even if you aren't a wine drinker, it enhances your meal.

It's a different menu at each restaurant. So check it out on their website.

I don't know if Delmonico is doing the same thing, but we loved our meal there in late April.

ETA: Looks like there is a 5 course special in August.

Whatever you do, try the fried sausage stuffed olives with your cocktail. They were delicious!! They might be on the sampler offering in the tasting menu.

Here's a review with some not so great photos that I wrote.
