Homestyle Mexican Food, Made From Scratch

Our Story

A Highway 123 Tradition

Just off Highway 123 in Stockdale, Emmys Mexican Food has the easy, unfussy feel of a real roadside diner — metal chairs, Formica tabletops, and a basket of two-tone chips on the table before you've even ordered. Regulars have been coming for years, and it's the kind of place where lunch arrives fast enough to fit into a break, without ever feeling rushed.

The fajitas are the reason people keep coming back. Order the beef fajita plate and you'll get tender, small-cut meat with a straightforward beef flavor, rice, beans, guacamole, and pico that leans spicier than you'd expect. Ask for the pound of fajitas to go and they'll send you home with a stack of homemade tortillas that, by more than one account, are simply the best around.

It's simple, honest Mexican cooking served by people who've been doing it a long time — hearty plates and food that tastes like someone's homemade recipe, not a chain's.
