This is by far the best restaurant I’ve ever been to! The service is absolutely 1000% every time we go we are greeted so well and welcoming, they are like hawks making sure you’re satisfied. The food is out of this world the bone marrow tacos, the lamb, the chicken van Cuq, and the tuna is a masterpiece! And the drinks they make are so delicious! I absolutely love this place and highly recommend

Been going to this restaurant for a while now and let me tell you that I never get disappointed! They don’t treat you any different if you don’t dress up nice or look like you are from another country. The atmosphere of the place is just perfect and every single plate has its own unique flavor starting by the bread and butter they give you at the beginning, love it! I recommend the New York Steak with a famous Mezcal drink they have but I can’t remember the name and every single dessert they have is the bomb! Will definitely keep going back

My fiance and I ate here tonight and the night before. The service was impeccable, I mean if it could have gotten any better I wouldn't have been surprised. These gentlemen are extremely professional! BRAVO! The ambiance was soft, elegant and glamorous! the bartender created three different mocktails and they were just as beautiful as they tasted . The music too on point , I believe we Shazamed most of the songs both nights. Now I must say the food was absolutely phenomenal. Each dish was perfectly seasoned and beautifully plated . Every single component to the dishes we had were seriously taken and purposely used. Muchas Gracias We will definitely be back next month!

Great service and great food. We had a hard time figuring out even to go to Emma because I wasn't really sold on the reviews. Good thing we did go and we ended up having a great meal and time.

Everything I ordered was fantastic. The octopus was amazing. The pork belly and the tuetanos were so delicious. Can't wait to go back.

This little gem is inside The Grand Hotel in Tijuana and it's quickly become one of my favorite restaurants! The service is so impeccable it's basically indicative of days gone by because service this good doesn't exist anymore as far as I know. The ambiance of the dining room is classy, clean, comfortable, interesting and elegant. The noise levels are quiet and the temperature and music are perfect. Finally, the food is incredible! The French/Baia fusion can be a bit rich but the flavors are amazing, delicious, creative and always served piping hot or at the temperature it should be. It's obvious they use quality meats and ingredients and have created a simple yet complex and cohesive menu that I would order and try literally anything from. I would trust Emma to deliver a top notch experience for any special occasion and I recommend them 100%!
