The best, absolutely the best. Their chicken enchiladas are out of this world and no matter how hard I try I will never be able to replicate theirs. Tamales are also delicious and just like grandma would make. Perfect ratio of meat to masa. Hibiscus tea is a must to have with your meal as is their salsa. Prices are reasonable, $6.00 for the enchiladas and you get two. This is one of those places you have to eat at at least once point in your lifetime. I true treasure to the Sacramento area, a hidden gem.

I love this place, around Christmas time I always find myself craving tamales and Emma’s has so many vegetarian/vegan options. I highly recommend the Jalapeño Cheese tamale.

We have passed Emma’s Tamales many times over the years and today we finally stopped. We wished that we would have stopped by a long time ago. The tamales were excellent the meat-to-masa ratio is perfect. The chips are very good and the salsa is too. The service was very good she was very friendly. The price is very reasonable. We will be going back again.

Yummy veggie tamales and you can purchase them in 6-packs! All the food is heated in the microwave so it’s not necessarily fine dining, but it’s cute and quaint. The server/cashier is extremely attentive.

Freshest, tastiest tamales in town! If you go here don’t forget to try the salsa it is some of the best I’ve ever had. The chips and Vegan flavored tamales are my favorite.

Their selection is lovely. I found their seafood tamale to be both unique and delicious. Their menu has something for everyone too! Meat eaters as well as vegans and vegetarian are all well accommodated here. Rating 4 stars because most things are microwaved and their location sucks. However I highly recommend stoppping by for a pack of tamales or some of their awesome vegan chorizo!
