Last September my wife and I finally got round to trying Emma's Cantina....Wow!!! Soooo glad we did....From 1st course to last the food was excellent..Waitresses are lovely and service was very attentive and the host, Mike is very welcoming and chatty....A real pleasureable experience. In fact we returned twice and had take-away!!!...No hesitation in recommending this 1st rate restaurant....Looking forward... More

We are just back from a week in PDC and went here twice! We read about it on trip advisor so decided to give it a go - we walked from the new town and it took us 40 mins to find it but boy was it worth every second! We got a lovely warm welcome from the owner Mike,... More

Visited Emma's last year and couldn't wait to return. Food and welcome as good as ever and would recommend to anyone wanting something a bit different. Food is beautifully cooked and presented and there is a lovely atmosphere. Well worth finding. More

Like many others before me I was absolutely delighted that I sought Emma's out after reading the reviews. We were staying at the opposite end of the resort and it was a concious decision to make an effort to walk there but we were glad we did. It was the ribs which attracted me if truth be told and I...
