★★★★★  Emirates is really a 5-star airline. Even in economy, the food far surpasses that of any other airline I have ever traveled on.

Delicious food is part and parcel of their brand. And there's plenty of it. Yes, you are paying $$$$ for the flight, but no other airline compares.

Wish they did not serve ALCOHOL.

★★★★★  Amazing airline! The service is fantastic! The food is also very good, bigger portions/selections than other airlines and they keep serving different snacks through out the flight. One of the best airline I've travelled on.

NR  I have never had the pleasure of the travelling of Emirates. However, my cousin works for the catering supplier for Emirates in Birmingham. He swears the meat products are NOT halal. Chicken is supplied by a large company which doesn't provide any certification or indication that the products are halal, unlike kosher which is clearly marked, packed seperatly and comes with additional paperwork.
When queried with management, they seem to believe the knives are "halal", so the food is halal.

Yes Emirates do audit the caterer, however the auditors are non-muslim, and spend a morning in the office going through paperwork.

I most certainly wouldn't eat any of the food provided by Emirates out of Birmingham.

★★★★★  Excellent service. Flight crew is young, speedy, very accommodating and always had a smile on their faces. Crew helpful as many speak variety of different languages. Variety of gourmet-style food choices available in good sized portions. By far the best airline I have ever travelled with, anyone who flies with Emirates will be pampered with great service.

★★★★  Very nice experience on long flights, no question!

Not very excited about short hour long flights in the gulf countries. The planes are old and service is just ok.

★★★★  Emirates is certainly better than other airlines, but it all depends on where you sit. If your seat is towards the end of the airline then you're out of luck. The food gets to you really late and the flight attendants will not pay too much attention to you. Otherwise, the food is good & halal (from what they told me). If flying direct to Dubai from JFK, they'll feed you three courses plus snacks in the middle.

★★  The food is not that great and the service was poor if you compare the extra money you pay b/c Emirates cost more. I will go back to PIA after getting disappointed by Emirates. By the way what is the reason to offer halal if you also offer haram i.e Alcohol in the flight. This is same as taking bribe after say Bismillah.

★★★★★  Sometimes when I haven`t travelled in a while I miss Emirates-food. Its excellent, perfect I must say. They have everything in that small tray: from appetizer to salads, meal, rice bread, deserts and ofcourse chocolate. They have choice of menus, so you can actually choose from a few choices what you feel like eating. Their food is well-cooked and tastes good like real-regular fppd, unlike many other airlines, where it seems like the food is something you never had when you were on earth, its diffrent in a tatse-less manner. But with emirates, it keeps you connected to the earth regarding the taste of their food, whice is real good restaurant quality food, biryani, bakes, potatoe patties, its wonderful. Sometimes I wish i could fly just for food.

★★★★★  I can't even stand the smell of food on an airplane, but I must say when I had the stomach for it and we had a stop over in cyprus, they gave us little chicken sandwhiches which were awesome. It's nice to have good service, good food and not pay an arm and a leg for it.

★★★★★  Simply the best

United States
★★★★★  Emirates was by far the most breathtaking as far as meals and service I have come across from any airline carrier I have used. The food was, comparitively speaking, phenominal and there was a good selection on the menu of healthy and tasty exotic food. The service was impeccable as well, no wonder Emirates is rated the best airline for consecutive years. You literally, sit and relax in a wonderful atmosphere enjoying the scrumptious meal. Unlike other airlines where you are checking your watch to wonder when you are going to arrive at your destination the environment which Emirates created onboard, combined with the unbelievably comfortable seating arrangements, beyond hospitable service and asthetically pleasing decor makes your time on board fly by in a snap. Next time you fly overseas be sure to do yourself some justice and fly Emirates.

United States
★★★★★  Let me be honest. Out of all the airlines I have flown so far, Emirates tops them all. The food in the economy class is far better than that of first class of other airlines. Other airlines can only dream of providing the in-flight food and service that Emirates provides.

United States
★★★★★  I went from Karachi to Dubai. It was ammmazing food, and I loved the fact that they had little chocolates at the end of the meal.

United States
★★  They did give good portions but most of it I did not like and left over most. We liked the childs meal perhaps I will order that on any future trips.

★★★★★  I travelled on Emirates from London to Dubai and was surprised to see steaks served for dinner and on our way to Dubai, they kept bringing food including ice cream. I was shocked compare to what I got from San Francisco to London on United. Emirates has the best food, and its one of the reasons I fly Emirates atleat we know the food we are eating is halal.
