Sometimes it's tough to think about and/or rate places like Emilio's. On one hand, we've had much more authentic and much better Mexican food from people and places where English is not the primary language. So how can we even rate a place like this, nestled in among old antique and beauty shops along M-50 in the middle of SE Michigan? For us, the answer lies in the question. We keep in mind where we are geographically. The food isn't amazing but its pretty damn good. Everything is cooked and fried and served the way it should be. Full of texture and flavor. The salsa is chopped too thin, makes it a little watery. Hot sauce is excellent.
The prices are pretty damn good too. Always have great lunch and dinner specials. Everyone is small town friendly. A good small town break from the everydayness of meatloaf and mashed potatoes. We wouldn't come from far and wide to eat here, but when we're in the area (which for us is quite often) it's worth the stop. Enjoy some better than average Mexican food in a place you wouldn't expect to find it.
