Michael Carew Tucked away behind the National Museum in Fredericksburg, Texas, Emis Fresh-Mex is a cantina that has a very tasty selection of original dishes. From the moment we walked in, we were captivated by the well-decorated and brightly lit interior, which created a warm and inviting atmosphere. We were also delighted to find a spacious outdoor eating area adorned with festive banners, making it the perfect spot to enjoy a meal on a beautiful day. For our dinner, we decided on the Carnita Papitas. The dish was a delicious and creative take on a Tex-Mex classic, perfectly blending savory carnitas with crispy waffle fries and queso fresco. To complement our food, we had the house Marg and a refreshing Summer Spritz. Both drinks were expertly crafted, making for a truly enjoyable experience. The entire visit was a delight, from the charming ambiance to the fantastic food and drinks. We highly recommend this Tex-Mex cantina on your next visit to Fredericksburg! Salute!!

Eric Snyder Very eclectic little foodie joint. Burgers were amazing and chili cheese fries are the bomb. P.S. arrive very hungry or prepare to take a doggie bag?

Jocelyn Rossi Amy Marie is always a pleasure! This was one of our many visits here but the 2nd time we’ve had Amy and we will ask for her every time now. Meatballs are always top tier and the pizza is undeniably the best in town. Save room for dessert because the layered chocolate cake & tiramisu are house made and INCREDIBLE!

Jasmine Rendon Service was amazing — so attentive, offered great recommendations, and truly made our experience wonderful. Our server was fantastic from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious. I had the house pasta of the evening with a creamy sauce, sun-dried tomatoes, shrimp, and spinach — it was perfection. We also ordered the bruschetta garlic bread, which was the perfect bite to start. And the banana bread pudding was incredible — a must-try. Overall, such a great dining experience. We would come back over and over again.

Gage Moore We had such a great time at Arch Ray in Fredericksburg! From the moment we arrived, the service was amazing. Our host, Amaryllis, was incredibly attentive and friendly and made us feel welcome right away. Our server, Armando, was fantastic super knowledgeable, personable, and fun. He did a great job explaining the wines and helping us choose what to try, and he really made the experience enjoyable. The winery has a relaxed, beautiful atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile. Between the great wine and even better service, Arch Ray is absolutely worth a visit. Highly recommend!

Miss Mo Babbbbyyyyy, if you’re thinking about going, GO NOW! It was delicious. The brisket was so tender and literally falling apart. We tried so many different things. I loved the dry rub ribs and sausage, my favorite side was the creamed corn. I didn’t get photos of the sides, but we had beans, Mac and cheese, and rice! My husband and I ended up getting 2 sides of that corn though. lol the banana pudding was fire too! Will definitely return next time we visit.

Javier Hinojosa I’ve never had a meal here I didn’t enjoy! This is a regular stop for us when we come to town to visit with Family. Excellent food and never a wait The drink is a Deluxe Michelada

Catherine Vaughn Mark (spelt M A R K) took great care of us and definitely seemed to know what he was doing. He furnished us with a couple of delicious pizzas and insisted on pouring me a glass of wine before I took off down the hill with the bottle. Two cool dogs. Great outside seating. Dog friendly.

Julie E Food was awesome, we ordered Omas breakfast and Opas breakfast, both phenomenal. We went on a Saturday, showed up at 9:55 and sat down at 10:35am for reference. There were probably 20-25 parties before us. Service was very quick! Worth the wait. There’s a walk up counter for pastries with a short wait!

Ariel Hammett My husband and I went here on a date night while visiting Fredricksburg and it did not disappoint! The service was stellar and the food was simply amazing! We got the gnocchi and lobster ravioli. The tiramisu was some of the best we’ve ever had. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxing.

Riah H. Not my typical kind of place but I glad I came! The bartender was nice and both nights I came my drinks were delicious and strong! I hadn’t tried to food so I honestly can’t say, but I’d def come back. Even if they are open late, the kitchen closes around 10/10:30, so keep that in mind. Inside is small so larger groups would need to sit outside on the patio.

Matthew Karagich The food was great. I had the Poblano Chicken Sandwich, my wife had the BBQ Brisket Sandwich. We got one of each of the sides Onion Strings, Fresh Parmesan Potato Chips, Curly Q Fries and Sweet Potatoes Fries. All 4 were tasty. Definitely going back for a burger.

William albaugh This is a hip restaurant located in a complex of sorts with a team shop, a small healthy grocery store, golf and a bar. The interior is a cool setup of tables and booths and adjacent bar. A variety of menu items like chicken and waffles, brisket quest, deviled eggs- but we came for the pizza. We had a standard all meat and a Cali Pizza recommended by Des, our server. Pizza was good. You can go with the specialties or build your own. Des was an excellent server. Very nice, helpful, and attentive. Cool kid - excellent job! Swing by and grab some food and kick back and enjoy.
