Last night was our second visit, and certainly not our last. It was absolutely delicious. We were honestly surprised the place wasn’t packed because every single dish was cooked to perfection. I ordered the filet mignon, it cut like butter and was incredibly flavorful. My husband had the NY strip, and it was just as amazing. The sides were so good, too!! If you’re looking for truly good food, a chef that cares about what he’s putting on the plate- this is the spot. You will not be disappointed. The waitresses were also so friendly and welcoming, it genuinely felt like they enjoyed what they do, which made the whole experience even better. Please excuse the low quality photos lol GO SEE FOR YOURSELF! 🙂

Emilio's is truly a hidden gem. It's a wonderful spot to grab breakfast, brunch or lunch. They offer excellent fresh choices, featuring organic Mexican cuisine. The service was fantastic on our first visit. This is a small place, with indoor and outdoor seating (weather permitting). Limited free parking. Highly recommended.

The food was delicious and whoever thought it was a good idea to prepare the home fries the way Emilio's does should be elevated to Sainthood. I was a little disappointed that the omelette, which had some pico de gallo on it, was not at all spicy. The entire meal was mild but otherwise still very flavorful and with a perfect amount of restraint and balance. I ordered takeout and ate in my car since I'm traveling with dogs.

Honestly, its becoming embarrassing how much we cant get enough of this place. What started out as our occasional breakfast spot, has now also became a favorite for lunch and dinner. The food is never not amazing. Everything is so fresh you almost taste it before it hits your mouth because the smell is so amazing. Presentation is beautiful. Specialty drinks are so delicious. Soups—dynamite! Desserts—outstanding!! Never had a meal that wasn’t 5 stars. Went for NYE dinner and it was perfection. Service is always top notch and the place is spotless.

We come visit every summer. We discover this place last year. We absolutely loved. So we came here immediately first day after arrived. I want to mention something happened on Monday. A little accident happened to my son. The young nice waiter she probably is new she spilled our orange juice the whole cup and a little strawberry drink all over on my son. She was shocked keep apologize. And I totally understand her worries so I keep tell her is ok. We were going to beach after breakfast. So later i think the owner wife(maybe?) she offered that two drinks on them. But in the end the owner gave us the bill only the orange juice took off. That was our first day I didn’t want make hard for anyone. Especially the waiter I don’t want her feel bad all day. But I was a little upset for how been han
