Solid neighborhood restaurant and bakery. It was early, but i was in the mood for tacos. I ordered 3 carnitas with everything. I really enjoyed that their onions is a mix of white and red. It comes with cilantro and a slice of lime. You get the option of green or red sauce that is kept chilled. I got my favorite mandarin jarritos and had a good meal in one of the booths. The location also serves as a corner store with some common food goods one might need. The lady who took my order was very friendly and attentive. read more

Emmanuel's Bakery - Bakeries Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I've driven past this place several times and the curiosity finally convinced me to stop and get some pan dulce. The service was friendly, patient and helpful. I bought 5 different pastries and it was a pretty mixed bag. Full disclosure, my Godfather and cousin are pretty famous Mexican pastry chefs, my Godfather especially, so my standards may be high. That out of the way, I was not blown away. The presentation is pretty decent, there is talent at the shop for sure, but the flavors are just not there. Everything is just various shades of sweet, lacking depth and complexity. The bread lacks even the staple flavors of woodsy and sweet Mexican vanilla, or smoky piloncillo, or even that earthy Mexican cinnamon. All I got was sugar, and not the rich burnt caramel unrefined sugar that enhances Mexican pastries, just regular white sugar. I will say that it's still good enough for repeat visits, it's not like Denver is swimming with great Panaderias. Just saying that the potential is there, just temper your expectations. read more

Not cheap but worth the price premium. Customers definitely prefer this to something from a donut store.

Everyone is sooo friendly and helpful. All the pan dulce is delicious! My fave are the cinnamon rolls and cheese danish. Breakfast Burritos are all delish! And did ai mention the gorditas?!?? read more

Emmanuel's Bakery - One of 3 displays of baked goods. - Bakeries Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I have been a customer since the day they opened. They were the best in town. Today I was just saddened to see such a down grade in the quality of their food. The Tortas were sub par as are the prices. I still wanted to support them with my business, but nope the food is such a down grade. Sorry Emmanuel's you lost a long time customer. The staff how ever is still very nice and respectful. read more

This place reminds me of the old Mexican bakery I used to work at back during my high school years in Texas. The smell of warm fresh bollio bread (similar to a white French breadroll) and sweetbread hit your senses as soon as you walk in ... The variety of food this place serves can cover any pallet and you can't beat the price for the authentic food they prepare. I took home 4 pieces of sweet bread, ordered 3 tacos ($1.50 each) your choice of meat all for $7 bucks. Normally I don't like sharing my taco hot spots but I had to give this place the attention it deserve. Best picks ***Carne Asada & Barbacoa*** Deliciosooo! Awesome hole in the wall bakery! Stellar service read more

Consistency.... It's hard to find these days .. but it's here at Emmanuel's . Great tasting food at an affordable price . Carnitas tacos are great as well as any of the tortas or flauta plates.. Also amazing bakery and breakfast burritos. Try both red and green salsa for ultimate flavor!.. tip your servers..! ;) read more

I have been coming here since I was little, and it has never failed me. The taco sizes are perfect, the staff is friendly, and the bread is just how I remember it, authentically Mexican. HIGHLY recommend the barbacoa tacos - the best I've had in Denver. read more

I bought 3 tacos from this place. The quantity was so tiny. The little bag they put the tacos in reminded me of going to the dog park and they give out those tiny bags to clean up after your dog THATS how tiny the tacos were and all 3 fit in that tiny little bag. I can go to mcdonalds and buy more food with less the price. I spent almost 10 dollars on these tiny little tacos and they have you pay first so I ended up giving a tip. Never again. I like to eat food not starve to death! read more

Honestly since moving here from LA I haven't found a place with such amazing tacos. From the nopales to the chicharrón man oh man so good makes you want to slap your mama. Honestly my new fave read more

Very disrespectful people and liars I called before I went and ask if they had handmade rosca and they say yes, I went and it was the same generic rosca in a purple box, I felt very disappointed but I still bought food from there with was disgusting bad fries and tacos. They even laugh at my face when I they said a word that I didn't understand in Spanish. So disrespectful. Never never never going back read more

Absolutely no complaints. Best tacos in the area. No question! Customer service was also top notch. The woman who took my order was very kind. Absolutamente no tengo quejas. Los mejores tacos de la zona. ¡No hay duda! El servicio al cliente también fue de primera categoría. La mujer que tomó mi pedido fue muy amable. read more

I love the feeling of this place. It's like eating at your grandma's house. They have many varieties of meat for tacos. I was happy to find they have Chile Verde. The burrito was filling and had a good homemade flavor. The pastries are so good! This place is also a little market. read more

BEST SALSA VERDE in Denver. The breakfast burritos are solid, not smothered in that gooey "chili verde" that people do here. They're handheld & deliciously simple. They should bottle that salsa verde tho, it's perfection. Also the delivery comes very quickly, always less than 20min. I grew up in LA & this place is the only good breakfast burrito I've had in Denver. 1st review I've ever written on YELP btw. read more

Instant Food Poisoning! These folk have absolutely defiled the concept of good Mexican food. Although the dry pastries may look acceptable, they're overshadowed by the lack of integrity that the staff has with their food. To begin with, the 5 bean, cheese, and egg burritos that we had ordered were served with double the portions of dry beans, and a little bit of cheese. After I reported the absence of egg to the staff, they insisted that the egg had been mixed in with the bean-- It wasn't. After requesting replacement burritos the staff didn't agree and declined the refund. Shortly thereafter, my teammate after finishing his second bearable burrito immediately rushed to the bathroom being unable to hold down the food. The lady at the front counter -usually always the same cashier- does have a tendency to be rude and impatient with customers. Needless to say they have lost the business of my company as a result of this issue happening on countless occasions. I am truly disappointed with the lack of quality that they had provided to us today and the inconsiderate position they held in accommodating our issues. read more

Emmanuel's Bakery - a hand holding a burrito - Bakeries Near Me - Denver, Colorado

One of my favorite places to visit when I'm in town! The food is all delicious the the portions are amazing for the price. The bread is baked fresh daily and I always leave with some to take home! read more

This place is great from dry goods, though limited in selection, ice cream, great burritos and tacos and everything else. But, the main reason you go there is the amazing pastries. I won't tell you what I like because I don't want you to buy them... However, you might find out if you buy a few of everything that looks good. And it's all pretty darn good. Killer prices too! In a great neighborhood! read more

Best authentic tacos I've had in Denver. None of the hoopla with ground up meat or chicken, sloppy cheese and lettuce. You get a to-go plate of 4 tacos. Double corn tortillas for each taco, diced up asada (or pollo, barbacoa and a few others), a container of green salsa, and a container of diced up onions and cilantro to put on top. It's nothing fancey, but they're incredible. I'll be back often. read more

Best mole in town. Delicious food really fast and good service. Chile relleno and mole and nopales tacos are great

It was like being in San Felipe, Mexico amidst urban Denver. There is something to be said about authentic. It is more than a bakery; Emmanuel's is a miniature store with products straight from Mexico, a bakery, and a restaurant. The plates are large, the prices are great and the flavors are amazing! My motto, when in doubt, have the carnitas tacos!!! Mmm mmm mmm... read more

More recently, they've had some uninspired, and at times rude help at the counter; one young lady in particular. Don't let her stop you from enjoying the great food and the great owners they have here though - or hopefully they'll have moved her on by the time you stop back in! read more
