The food was good, the service was a little delayed could be because of the language barrier or because they were too busy. The atmosphere was not bad, just made me feel like I was an odd ball out for being there. Other than that everything else made the place great!

Even tho we eat here twice a month the food quality and drink quality always varies. Pitcher of margs for 29 bucks is worth it either way.

This is a really solid mexican restaurant! Service was quick and the food came out piping hot. We were in and out in under an hour on a Saturday night which was just what we were looking for. Definitely glad we stopped by, I would recommend the burrito. The portions were very generous and the salsa had a good bit of kick as well.

Delicious and generous portions! Slighty more Tex Mex-style than classic Mexican so keep that in mind if coming to dine here. Loved the appetizers (especially the Queso Fundido) and their top shelf margaritas!

Emiliano's Mexican Restaurant & Bar is a good TexMex restaurant with delicious food and Margaritas. I was pleasantly surprised by the Musica Mexicana atmosphere, their frozen Mango Margaritas were great, and so were the Green Chicken Enchiladas; however, they could improve by using corn tortillas instead of flour. Overall, it's worth checking out for its good food, fun ambiance, and welcoming service.

Waiter took my card and charged me twice the amount than on the receipt and said nothing about it!!I've dined here multiple times over the years and have had both good and bad experiences but recently after having lunch with a friend I will never return again.During this visit the food left much to be desired. As we were ready to go the waiter brought us our checks. My check was correct however my friend wasn't charged for her drinks. The waiter said he would fix it, We provided him with our cards and the waiter then returned with a receipt twice as much as the original copy!! He charged my card twice as much without permission. Without presenting me the new receipt prior to charging my card. I was shocked and confused. This is could be considered theft. Completely unacceptable. Had I not looked at my receipt I wouldn't have realized. He made no mention that he made changes to the bill.His excuse was that he intended to correct the checks but still had them incorrect. Instead of presenting them to us before charging and requesting permission and confirmation of it being accurate he went ahead and charged the cards. I've never experienced anything like this. This could have caused problems for a guest if they didn't have the appropriate amount in that account (overdraft fees) thankfully that wasn't the case for myself however it's completely illegal to take somebody's card and charge them a different amount than what was represented on the receipt.Thankfully my friend had cash to give me to correct the difference that should have been on her check. Very reckless and unprofessional. I will never return.

For a friday night we (4 of us) got seated right away. Our waitress was wonderful. Very bubbly and nice. We of course had to get drinks. I got their diablo, really delicious. Loved the sweet and Spicy combo. To eat I got their pastor tacos. Three corn tortillas filled with pastor pork and grilled pineapple, topped with raw onions and cilantro. Served with rice, beans, and homemade hot sauce, and pastor broth. The pastor broth I could have drank it was that food and loved the sweetness that the grilled pineapple gave. And these tacos were STUFFED!!!!!!
