Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Perfection

Nov 2022 • friends

One of the area's best kept secrets. It's never too too busy and if it's busier then normal still a quick lunch or dinner as the staff is excellent and efficient. This is an often lunch break spot for me as the flavor is amazing, price is right, and service is quick!

Delicious salsa, made fresh daily by people who care

Sept 2020 • none

This is a happy place. I only ate there twice, both times the food was excellent. I recommend the street style tacos. Wishing I'd eaten there one more time, tried more dishes, but I'll be back. It's a big space, with tables comfortable for couples, all the way up to tables for groups of 10 or more. Service was spot on and always with a smile. The bar is cozy, think it seats 8? Might want to get there a little early if you like to sit at the bar, like me.

God food, good service, good price

We stayed at the Baymont hotel where Emilio’s Cantina is located. Good Mexican food, great service and reasonable price.

Second time

Jan 2021 • family

You can usually tell a good Mexican restaurant by the refried beans, they're good. Everyone's meal was very good as was the service. We will go back.

Horrible food

Jan 2020 • none

Sorry but this was the first time I tried this restaurant. It was way too salty and the cheese even cold was like water

Best shrimp quesadilla I've ever eaten!

Oct 2019 • none

The atmosphere was just great. I was in a party of six locals who had never been to Emilio's before and everyone enjoyed the food.

Nice palce

Nov 2019 • family

Small, very small. The chips, salsa and margaritas were really good. We went on a Saturday night, not knowing it was karaoke night. Karaoke is not really my thing. Although I would certainly go back for the food.

Shrimp Quesadilla

Aug 2019 • solo

This is located in the Baymont by Wyndham. It was karaoke night and the place was filled up pretty quickly because it is a pretty small restaurant. It has around 10 tables. I ordered the shrimp quesadilla, $7.95. The shrimp was ok and it came out in average time. It is a run of the mill Mexican food with a decent price tag. I heard that they also have $3 margaritas.

Save Room for Lemon Cake

Jul 2019 • couples

We enjoyed a delicious lunch at Emilio's. I cannot say enough about the quality of service and food we have received on every visit. The food is always the same--perfectly prepared and more than generous portions. The homemade tortillas and salsa were on the table as soon as we sat down. Our server was wonderful. We had the Steak Fajitas for two but should have ordered Fajitas for one. We each had rice, beans, guacamole, sour cream and fresh tomatoes, lettuce, cilantro,etc. for toppings. We received a large portion of tender steak strips, squash, peppers, onions & tomatoes with hot flour tortillas. More chips and salsa were brought out. We asked for a to-go box to carry some with us but upon the recommendation of our server we shared a slice of their lemon cake. It melts in your mouth! We look forward to our next visit.

Awesome food great prices

Jan 2019 • couples

This was our 4th time at the restaurant. The food is awesome. We had the beef quesadillas which were amazing. The beef was slow cooked and very well seasoned. The pollo con chilli was outstanding. Excellent service as well

Karaokee night

Sept 2018 • family

We go here Karaokee nights for the entertainment of friends and usually eat when we do. The food is ok, the staff is amazing, and the people there are so much fun.

Gone Downhill

Jul 2018 • friends

I really used to like this place but it has unfortunately gone downhill. I was here last week. I noticed they have raised prices but the quality of the food has been lowered. I got the Anita's chicken entree which consisted of small shreds of chicken on shredded lettuce with some avacado slices. At $10 I did not feel like it was worth it. I have had better salads at fast food places. Also their margaritas have gone up in price and it's not the deal it once was. The margaritas at Mi Rancho up the street are bigger, stronger and $2 cheaper. Then there is the karaoke which on other nights has been entertaining. Maybe I just hit it on an off night. The host has the personality of a doorknob. The karaoke crowd monopolized most of the tables even though they didn't seem to be ordering food or drinks. Then just about every song was twangy country music. There was no variety. I think the average age of the crowd was 75. It was like dining in a very loud nursing home.

Good Mexican with Great Frozen Margaritas

Jun 2018 • business

I've eaten here several times, now, and the food and service is very good. We've tried many things on the menu both for lunch and dinner and haven't been disappointed. Highly recommended.
