The hot sauce had a strange flavor to it, but a little salt made it bearable. The food, on the other hand, was a lot better... fairly small establishment, the menus were falling apart and the selection was not very large...

So a number of years ago I left four-star review . I had gone a few times and it was really good. I haven't gone since Covid, and I finally went today. Unfortunately, it is not as good as the past times I had been. Last time the enchilada that comes with the chili relleno dish was tender and light and really good. it had kind of a chicken gravy over it that was different but very good. This time I didn't realize they were going to put a Ranchero sauce over it, and it tasted canned and it wasn't good. And their tortilla was heavy and kind of stiff and just not very good. The Rellano itself was OK but the cheese sauce tasted kind of like it had cheese wiz over the top of it. Not the nice light cheese sauce of the past.when I went to go pay, the guy didn't say that they were going to charge extra for the credit card and there was no sign that says so. And then it must've charged like 5% or something because it was more than I was expecting. when I asked the guy about it, he just said the machine charges what it charges. he couldn't even find the receipt that I asked him to look for to see what it charged me. But then I was able to pull up my credit card charge and it shows that it is charged me like an extra $.60 for a 13.50 meal. I wasn't happy. I had cash with me and i could've paid cash if i had known. I know it's not a huge amount, but all those charges add up which is why restaurants do it now. But it adds up to my pocketbook too. i won't be going back.
I have been a customer of emilos for years when the older gentleman that was the cook was cooking the food was excellent everything was great the boracho beans I recommed are better than my mother's the waitress was very friendly, quick, and my cup was full all the time I was there. I didn't speak a whole lot with the manager when I was cashing out he was friendly didn't say much but he was efficient and precise as a former restaurant manager of 15years he does his job right. I totally recommend Emilos Mexican Restaurant for any meal with our without family almost forgot ask Ralph about the mixed drinks he makes a great margarita,
Simple menu, good flavor, nothing fancy. Just went in, ate until I couldn't anymore, and left very satisfied.

I've eaten there a few times, and each time had a poor experience. The owner is always unfriendly, and in my opinion, the food is never tasty. Imagine frying ground beef with zero seasoning...just fat and meat.... that's what the ground beef tastes like in the tacos, enchiladas, etc. Lots of folks seem to like it, but it definitely not my cup of tea.

Delicious large portions of food. Waitstaff was welcoming and friendly. Even with a large dinner crowd they kept up with orders drinks and service. Recommended!
Food was excellent, as always, service was fast and friendly, and we plan to be back!
