   The staff was great, we don't speak much Spanish but everyone was kind and accommodating to us. I asked for a recommendation and had a delicious meal. Try the flan, it was also great! Loved the fact there were no other tourists there, it was nice to have a neighborhood feel, great music and incredible food!

   We went on on a Monday evening, and there were singing (predominately in Spanish) the whole night. The man and women will very entertaining and nostalgic. It's a place that will take you back in time. We were pleasantly surprised! It seems like a neighborhood place, everyone seem to know each other. The menu is limited but the food was good and their were plenty of wine choices.

   The music, the food and the service, create an ambiance of "family" among those who gather. "Everyone knows everyone."

   Mira si son descarados que tienen la desfachatez de negar el mal servicio y el mal rato que nos hicieron pasar en la respuesta posterior! Que falta de honradez!!! Hasta la mesera nos dio la razon cuando pagamos. Voy a recomendar que hay mejores restaurantes en esa area y no botar el dinero en ese lugar. Fue una pena llevar a mi madre para pasar un mal rato. This was a terrible experience. I would not recommend it. They brought us the wrong appetizers, at the end tried to charge us for it. They were out a lot of food, so they served us incomplete meals. We ordered chistorras, which should come with bread. No bread, no explanation! Just “we are out.” They were so oily too! Yuk! My mom ordered mashed potatoes, they were out, but never asked her if she wanted something different. They just brought her a really gross potato salad. It was so bad!!! A glass of water was spilled at our table, we told the waiter, he kept walking, unfazed. We had to use most of the napkins. Later, after i cleaned most of it, i had to ask a different waitress to get me napkins. We got some paper napkins to clean. I asked if i could get a cloth napkin 4 TIMES!!! They never brought one. My son ordered 2 appetizers as his entree, they were served as appetizers to the table, even after he explained this was to be his entree. A salad that was mostly lettuce was served to my mother, no dressing. This is NOT a good place if you are not a regular. They don’t really care. There are far better places with better food. BTW, food was SO SALTY!!! The only flavor. Awful, awful, awful.

   Dear Liz, we’re sorry to hear your experience didn’t meet your expectations. However, we’d like to clarify a few points in your review. We never serve incomplete meals without explanation, and we strive for clear communication with customers about substitutions. Our team is trained to promptly handle any issues, including spills. As for the food, we ensure balanced flavors. We’ve also noticed several reviews with false information that hurt our reputation. These claims don’t reflect the standards we maintain at Casa Emilio, where we prioritize creating a welcoming atmosphere for all. - Casa Emilio Team

   Casa Emilio is all about extended "family". The music is superb and the food is very good. The hosts will make you feel truly at home.
