My absolute favorite place to eat! Nothing tops De emmas tacos, there guacamole, the green salsa they even have amazing margaritas! All around this place has the best food in town & I would never choose another spot! Any time I cheat on my favorite Mexican restaurant I’m left disappointed! Love this place!

Wonderful family run authentic Mexican dishes. Chicken mole was my favorite, and the tacos with chorizo.

Outstanding Mexican food and great service!* (see note at end) We had fajitas here before (once dining in, and carry out on a different occasion), and they were Really Good. Tonight we tried the chef’s special: Quesabirra and consume – a definite get again. I requested chicken tacos instead of the steak or goat tacos featured. Our server Pedro (also the manager) cheerfully agreed to make the switch, and also custom designed the consume to go with my tacos. From the first bite of deliciousness to the very last, my mouth was alive with flavors. The consume was also flavorful and perfectly seasoned. The made-for-us guacamole was great. (as were the fresh salsa and chips served at the beginning of our meal) I had doubts that 3 tacos would be enough food, but, it was a sizable dinner, and after all the guacamole and salsa, we were full. But when Pedro offered a flan that he made this morning…we said yes! It was delicious. La Cocina De Emma was named after Pedro’s grandmother, and is our new go-to Mexican restaurant. Highly recommend both their dining in and carry out.

Pulling up to the restaurant, I became suspicious of the 4.8 rating. However, once you open the door you are transported into a delightful Mexican kitchen. The food was absolutely divine! I’d go out of my way again just to eat here.
