We are passing through and stopped off here on the way to the KOA. Absolutely everything was delicious. Our server was incredibly kind, attentive, and patient. We had a BLT, Indian taco, milanesa, hamburger, cheeseburger, and a honey sopaipilla. The burgers were cooked perfectly! The Indian taco was incredible and I kept asking my husband for another bite of his. The milanesa was top notch. The sopaipillas were the BEST. The dough was warm and absolutely incredible!!! If we come back to the great sand dunes in warmer months, we will absolutely come back here! 10/10 recommend. You won't be disappointed.
First time here and their Mexican food was amazing. It’s hard to find true Mexican food, but this place did not disappoint. We had the Indian fried taco, which had some of the best red chili I’ve had in a long while. Definitely recommend. The stuffed sopapilla was also good. I also ended up ordering extra items so I could try their other red chili on the enchiladas. That red chili was also amazing. The server was great too and had great recommendations. We will definitely be back!
From scratch food. Had a combo plate all items were very tasty especially the enchilada. Good chips and salsa, service was great for the staff. Will be back.
This was our first time enjoying ourselves at this restaurant. We were greeted immediately upon arrival by a friendly gentleman. Our drink order was taken immediately and we were given menus. Since we have never been here we were recommended the old man special however we had had something similar to that just the night before. So we opted for something different. I had the Emma special and my husband had the burrito I believe. The price was right and we will definitely be back. Thank you for an enjoyable experience.
Anthony and his family were charming and the food was delicious. We got the nachos and some sopapillas- it was the perfect amount and so delicious I wanted to lick the plate.
This place is an awesome, super friendly family-run restaurant. I ordered the "Old Man", an open-face double patty burger topped with fries and smothered in red, green or a combo of both sauces. It was delicious! The fresh salsa that came out with the chips was also a tasty highlight. I highly recommend this place if you like really good Southwestern food.
We really enjoyed eating here while traveling through the area! This is the best southwestern food I've had anywhere! The tortillas for the tacos are made fresh, the rice is excellent, and the red and green sauce on the burritos were both very unique and tasty! The service was also fast and friendly!
If you are looking for true Southwestern Mexican food look no further than Emma’s! We ordered bean burritos one with vegetarian red sauce and the other with green chile pork sauce. Both were absolutely delicious and the customer service was impeccable! For dessert the sopaipillas were incredible (they came with sweet butter) but they’re so much better with honey drizzled inside. Great find about 45 minutes outside of Great Sand Dunes National Park.
