About Us

Loved by Dallas

What our guests are saying on Google

“Best Mexican in Dallas! We love Emilio’s and come weekly. Mexican martini is the best in Dallas, tacos Al carbon is awesome and I leave with left overs for the next day. Salsa is fresh, homemade, and reminds me of growing up in Austin.”
MMeredith Y.
“The best Mexican restaurant in the Dallas area. Very authentic and well priced. I've been going here for years. My husband and my father in law love this place. Their Carne a la Mexicana is my favorite. My husband loves the Chimichanga. My father in law loves Sopa Del Mar.”
VVeronica
“My wife and I’s favorite Mexican restaurant in town! Great food, all made from scratch in the kitchen with a great atmosphere as well. Service is amazing! The owner was incredibly kind by giving us a discount and letting us stay passed closing time in order to finish the World Cup game! 5/5 stars!”
CConnor W.
“Amazing food! Some of the best Mexican food I’ve had in Dallas! Exceptional service, friendly and attentive.”
CChris M.
“I'm from San Antonio so I know good Texmex. This place has the best fajitas and margaritas. Fajitas are very tender, no fat and no gristle. Margaritas are nice and strong.”
TTom T.
“Emilio's came highly recommended and they were 1,000% correct. This should be called “Emilio's Scratch Kitchen” as no shortcuts are taken here.”
CCandis
“First timers. Food was so good. Service was great. We had breakfast, chorizo and eggs, and chilaquiles rojos....warning, they're very picoso (spicy). Very reasonable prices. Definitely will be back to enjoy lunch/dinner with drinks. Owner stopped by to check on us which was nice. A must try!”
MMina R.
“Very quiet hidden gem. The food is really really good for such and understated place. The staff is always friendly and never let your drink, chips, or salsa run out. Nice cozy atmosphere with wide booths and delicious margs.”
TTaylor S.
“Traditional Mexican restaurant hidden in a strip mall. Delicious food, chips and salsa are on the house (the way it should be). I had the fish soup and it was savory and well made. My wife loved her chicken soup and I loved the low prices on the drinks. Hope to return soon!”
JJose L.
“Amazing place to just relax and eat good food, there asada plate it’s really good and the tacos al carbon are amazing as well, the music is good and the atmosphere is great, they also have 85” tv for show and to watch sports.
