Emilianos Authentic Mexican Food is a food trailer located in Port Alberni, near the Clutesi Boat ramp/launch. The restaurant offers outdoor picnic tables for seating and is pet-friendly. The hostess and chef, Liliana, hails from Mexico and cooks delicious and authentic Mexican food.
One reviewer's wife ordered the Tortilla soup, which was said to be as authentic as the one the reviewer's mum used to make. The chicken chimichanga was described as a deep-fried burrito with crispy edges and a soft underbelly, with flavors on point. The Tostadas were golden brown and fresh, with flavorful beans and meats.
Another reviewer raved about the beef burrito, the best they've ever had, and the fish tacos, which brought back memories of authentic tacos from Mexico. The service is always great, with the owner Lily being personable, friendly, and remembering orders. The food is consistently fantastic and fresh.
Vegetarian options are available, and there are good sweets like donuts and banana ice cream. Tacos are middle-sized and really authentic. The restrooms are clean and convenient, hidden behind the food trucks.
Parking might be more difficult during boating season, but the place is kid-friendly with green spaces for kids to run around. On a sunny day, the whole experience is a 10/10. Overall, Emilianos is a great option for delicious and authentic Mexican food with amazing service.
