I love CasaEma!! The interior is so warm, fun, and spacious. There is a cute window where you can see inside the kitchen, and they always have something interesting going on in the kitchen---from corn nixtamalizing to fruits being extracted for their seasonal drinks like Prickly Pear Matcha! You order at the counter---make sure to take a look at the pastry case and choose something to go along with your meal/drink---and then receive a number to take to your table. They have a variety of seating, from window high chairs for solo dining/cafe vibes to long communal tables where you can sit with large parties to individual tables for 4. In terms of drinks, highly recommend the horchata latte (I get it half sweet and the horchata still shines through beautifully). The cinnamon and rice notes complement the coffee so well. Matcha is good, but don't expect the super strong matcha you'd get at a matcha specialized cafe, so I go with the coffee here! The pastries are delicious---try the elote muffin (like thick, more dense and textured cornbread) and the horchata berlinesa (horchata cream filled donut). I have yet to try other baked goods, but they all look so good. In terms of food, I got the pork mole enchiladas. This was my first time having mole enchiladas so I don't have a point of comparison, but the flavors were very rich and presentation beautiful. I would recommend ordering family style, however, so you can get a taste of all the different kinds of dishes they have here. Definitely a must-visit spot when you're in Houston! read more

It was pretty crowded for lunch on a Sunday. They have a small parking lot but you can also find street parking nearby. The line to order was a bit long, extending to the door. However, the line moves fast. After ordering, you can find a table to sit at. There wasn't any space left inside so we opted for a table in the shade. The weather was a little humid but doable.   I tried the suadero chilaquiles which was a popular item on the menu. This was a huge portion. The suadero brisket was good and went well with the flavorful sauce. The tortilla chips had a good crisp to them and didn't end up being too soggy. The papaya salad was refreshing. The papaya itself was sweet and was the perfect balance to the yogurt and granola.   We also tried the mole verde chochoyotes but the heirloom masa dumplings were our least favorite item. There was something missing in the sauce as if it was a bit bland. I also got an iced matcha latte which was decent. Overall, it was a good meal. Will have to come back to try more items on their menu. read more

Absolutely loved it. Make sure to get there early (8-9ish) on a Sunday morning. The line had started to form. However it was actually quicker than imagined. I went with my sister and there was so many delicious options. We started with the guava cheese empanada. So delicious. The horchata matcha latte didn't have overly much flavor. The iced chai was great. Very cinnamon forward. The French toast was good. A bit sweet. Glad we did that in addition to the chilaquiles. It was nice to go back and forth between sweet and savory. The corn cakes from the bakery selection were tasty. They were great if you like corn. The almond concha was meh. Not worth the cost. I'd rather go down the road for other ones. Overall though very friendly staff. Clean restaurant with quick service. The feel is simply and to the point. read more

Arrived for some late Sunday brunch around 12:30pm. The line ended right inside the door and it moved fairly quick. The staff was friendly and recommended some great dishes and we decided to eat it family style like the menu suggested. Brioche French Toast: 10/10 One of the best French toast I've had. Not super sweet and the compote adds a level of freshness to the whole dish Chilaquiles: 10/10 A must try! The brisket is moist and tender. Paired with the perfect amount of sauce! Enchiladas: 6/10 I think I'm just not a fan of mole. If you like it then you'll enjoy this plate a lot. We were able to get it with chicken instead of pork and it was a hit with the others at the table. Cauliflower: 8/10 If you need another dish to share, I would recommend this. The cauliflower is soft and the sauce is savory and adds the perfect amount of heat. Chai: 10/10 I can't express how hard it is to find a good dirty chai. The chai is spicy and has an intense flavor that pairs so well with some espresso! I will be coming back for this! We did come in too late to try any of the pastries so if you have your heart set on those the staff mentioned coming in before noon. read more

I'd heard great things about CasaEma but always hesitated to check it out due to the notorious long line on the weekends and limited parking. Finally made it in for a Friday brunch, with only a few people in line ahead of us. Lucky! The space itself is bright and welcoming. The setup is casual, order at the counter, grab a number and they will bring the food out to your table. The menu concentrates on pastries, coffee and Mexican street food/ inspired brunch items. For drinks, we ordered the horchata matcha and horchata latte, both excellent and well- balanced. For food, we sampled Chicharron, carrot taco, Suadero Chilaquiles, and chori-papa skillet. Everything was delicious, and the tortillas tasted homemade and incredibly fresh. My favorites were the carrot taco and the chilaquiles, both phenomenal! We couldn't leave without something sweet, so we shared the French toast as dessert and grabbed couple pastries for later. The pastries had a unique corn flavor and a denser texture which I really enjoyed. Overall, it's hard to go wrong here. Everything we tried was good. The only real drawbacks are the parking and weekend lines. Otherwise, I'd be here a lot more often. read more

My sister and I came here 9ish Sunday morning. There was a line but just to the door. When we left later on, the line was out the door. You order first and then find a seat. They had someone making sure tables were cleaned and helping you find a seat if needed. But plenty of seating when we arrived. Parking was a little tricky though. We shared most of the items. Hola Santa French Toast - so good. On Brioche bread. The strawberry compote was amazing and so flavorful. Suadero Chilaquiles - so good!! Large serving. Egg perfectly cooked. Brisket was juicy and full of flavor. Yum! The Guava Empanada was my favorite baked good. The bread was perfect and the filling inside was sweet and a little tart. Loved it. The carrot cake Dona was tasty. A little hint of orange I think. The almond concha was very soft. It was good but the others were better. I got a hot latte and asked for a little horchata flavoring. That was perfect. I feel like it would be too sweet with full horchata flavor. Cantaloupe agua Fresca. Amazing. But I'm a sucker for melon Frescas. I'd def come back here and try some other things. I'd recommend going early if you don't want to wait in a long line. They had indoor and outdoor seating. We sat outside because it wasn't too hot yet. It had cute but simple decor. read more

This award winning Mexican breakfast spot is worth the hype. The parking here is a bit tight on the weekend. It is best to check their social media for guide on where to parking on the weekend. You order at the counter and they give you a number and they will bring the food out to you. There is a water station hidden in the corner, I did not see it until I ask one of the staff for more water and she walk to the corner so now I know. They should have it somewhere else that easier for first timer like me to find it to get more water. The price it is a bit higher but you can tasty the quality difference here. read more

I had lots of anticipation for this cafe so my expectations were high, but they definitely were met! It was a beautiful cafe with a light atmosphere, and on a weekday it wasn't too crowded! All the food was absolutely amazing. The pastries we tried included: - Horchata berlinesa (a delicious horchata cream inside a cinnamon sugar donut) - Cajeta roll (a cinnamon brioche with goat cheese caramel drizzle) - Peanut butter chocolate mole cookie (a little spicy, a little nutty) Every one of these is so incredible, with rich and memorable flavors. The food was also amazing - my mouth is watering just thinking back to it now! - Mushroom tostada: the mushrooms were thick with a lovely roast, with a spicy sauce that's just hot enough to leave me aware of it. The arugula is a perfect fresh touch on top. - Skillet: I think this one had my favorite flavors, the eggs were so fluffy which paired well with the intense savory flavor. - Chilaquiles: a beautiful bowl with diverse flavors in a huge portion! - Pork belly: my friend got this one and I didn't get to taste it personally, but it was rich and savory with a great portion size as well. I also got a horchata matcha which was not quite as sweet as I expected, but was still delicious. Overall, I loved Casaema and I can't wait to come back to try more! read more

This place is sooooooo good, it honestly caught me by surprise!! I arrived around 8:40 am and there was already a line out the door, but it moved pretty quickly. I ordered the horchata latte ($5.50), a strawberry danish type thing ($6) , and the chori papa skillet-eggs over hard ($16). The latte wasn't too sweet and didn't have an overpowering cinnamon taste either (7/10). The strawberry danish was actually spicy. I was surprised. It wasn't bad, but I'd probably try a different pastry next time (6/10). The star of the show was the chori papa skillet!!! It was so delicious, I wish I could lick the skillet lol. It was so full of flavor and filling !! I will most definitely be back and telling everyone I know about CasaEma read more

Casaema was recommended to me by a friend. It's a daytime a Mexican restaurant boasting many accolades such as a Bib Gourmand and James Beard semifinalist. I was certainly excited to try to hopefully add a new brunch place to my rotation. We came early Saturday morning. The space and parking lot is quite small but they recently opened an offsite lot. The weather was cold when we went so I opted for a hot horchata latte. It was absolutely delicious. The cinnamon wasn't overpowering and it wasn't too sweet. My friend and I ordered a bunch of things to share. We ordered the elote muffin, horchata-filled berlinesa, the guava and lime donut, and guava and cheese empanada. I normally don't like cream-filled donuts but the berlinesa was apparently THE pastry to try. The donut was fluffy and the cream filling wasn't too heavy and you can really taste the horchata. We ordered the arugula avocado salad, suadero chilaquiles, and the chicharron. The chilaquiles were amazing! You get the perfect bite with the tender brisket, runny egg, salsa, homemade queso fresco, and tortilla chip. I'd definitely order this again next time I come. The chicharron was another great item. It comes with tortillas and beans to make a taco. Overall, we left super satisfied and will happily come back again! read more

Upon first glance, there is a huge line outside the door, and that's when I knew I was in for a phenomenal meal. This small spot, with counter order service, fills every void you might have had. Frankly, I was extra grateful for the line as it definitely gave us more time to look over the menu. At 12:30pm they were out of some fun pastries, but as seen in the picture that definitely didn't stop us. Every salsa packed with flavor - asking for the tortilla to be drenched with it. The chilaquiles stayed crispy forever which seems like some sort of magic trick. I also got an horchata matcha and it made a cozy drink even more so. Truly worth the wait read more

Stopped by for brunch and there was a line out the door, we waited about 20 minutes to be seated for two. Portions were just right for one person, so don't expect leftovers. We ordered the chilaquiles and French toast, both were delicious, along with the coffee, though in my opinion the food could've used a bit more salt. We sat outside and I wish there were more umbrellas; once the sun shifted, our table lost its shade and it got pretty hot. Overall, I'd recommend it as a higher end brunch spot. read more

Next I go I will leave another review with more detail about the dishes! read more

Casa Ema is easily one of the most memorable places I have eaten at. It is counter service and it does get busy, but they have a system that completely removes the usual stress. Instead of standing in line wondering where you will sit, someone actually escorts you to a table after you order. It makes the whole place feel organized and welcoming. Parking is limited, but they added extra spots across the street which helps. The food is incredible. We ordered the suadero chilaquiles and the huarache de pollo. Both dishes were packed with flavor. You can taste the quality and the effort in every bite. The chilaquiles had that perfect balance of crispy and saucy. The huarache was fresh, hearty, and incredibly satisfying. The pastries might actually be the real stars. We tried the horchata berlinesa and the guava queso empanada. The berlinesa was unreal. Soft, creamy, sweet, and full of horchata flavor. I am genuinely still thinking about it days later. Casa Ema is one of those spots that leaves a lasting impression. Amazing food, smooth service, and a warm atmosphere. I cannot wait to return. read more

Ummmmm... why did no one tell me this place was going to change my entire personality? Because WOW. First of all, the pan dulce? AMAZING. The sweet bread was so moist I'm convinced they have a grandmother in the back whispering blessings over the dough. We tried a concha, pan de muerto, AND an elote muffin all 5/5, no notes, perfection. I got the Olla Latte and HELLOOOOOO, it was everything. Cozy, sweet, cinnamony comfort in a cup. I would like another one handed to me at all times, thanks. And then the food came out... and somehow it was even better than the pan dulce (which honestly feels illegal to say). We got the cauliflower, if you like spicy, this is YOUR dish. It's giving "my tongue is burning but I'm not stopping." Also grabbed the chicharrón and the sauces it came with should be bottled immediately . To top it off, everyone was ridiculously kind and welcoming. Like walking into a restaurant and instantly being adopted by a family. My only complaint? The parking. But listen... that's a Houston problem, not a them problem. read more

We had the SUADERO CHILAQUILES w/Chorizo, CHICHARRON, and MOLE VERDE CHOCHOYOTES. Their HORCHATA latte is amazing.

CasaEma truly lives up to its Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition. The space is casual but rather small inside with some patio seating outside. The parking lot is quite small too and the line can be long (about a 30-minute wait for us). The couple in line next to us was there for the 3rd day in a row. The ordering process is cafeteria-style, but the service is fast, attentive, friendly. The food was exceptional! Every dish was beautifully presented and tasted just as good as it looked. The suadero chilaquiles was my favorite. The chips were crispy and the brisket and salsa were so flavorful. The Chicharron was a close second. It was served with tortillas and red and green salsa. I didn't try the huarache de pollo but both my friends who got it absolutely loved it as well. We can't wait to come back here to try some other dishes. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! read more

This place was too good not to leave a review! Amazing food and excellent service! The restaurant is very clean, and everyone on staff is polite, professional, and helpful. We tried several dishes, the baby back ribs, chilaquiles, mole chochoyotes, and hoja santa toast and everything was absolutely fantastic. We paired our meal with café de olla, of course, and it was the perfect touch. The space is small, and unfortunately they don't take reservations, but the staff is very efficient with seating. There's also extra parking across the street, and street parking if needed. Highly recommend this place we're already planning our next visit! I'll leave you some photos so you can check out just know we ate before the camera on some haha read more

Had a good first experience here, loved the concept and really liked some of the stuff we got. The coffee was good and worth getting for sure, going to try something different though next time (hot horchata matcha and blue corn cold brew cold) I think the matcha was better. The chocolate concha was good but im not sure i love conchas are my favorite will try something else next time. The papaya salad is a must get, fresh, light and unique. I loved the pombazo and will always get this. I thought the chilaquiles were just okay unfortunately. My wife liked the French toast and would get it again. The line moves fast, id aim to get here as close to 8am as possible. Family friendly as well. Plenty of kids in there eating breakfast. read more

Had a cute little brunch date with my husband at CasaEma. Our friends recommended it and we were excited to try. Parking was okay, and I think there is more parking across the street? Service was efficient and very kind. There was a line when we got there, but honestly, it went by fast. They have decaf options, and great coffee drinks. We tried the pastries and a dish (but forgot what it was) and everything was good. I love the interior, and how chill the space is. Definitely check out this cute little place! read more

I went to CasaEma last Saturday with a friend for brunch. The parking situation isn't great, but that's pretty expected for the area. I really wanted to love this place since I'd heard good reviews, but overall, it was just okay. The seating setup was a bit chaotic -- there's no one monitoring it, so you basically seat yourself and hope a table opens up by the time you're done ordering. My friend and I ended up sitting at a four-person table outside because it was the only one available (sorry to whoever was waiting -- we didn't have many options!). I ordered the Horchata Matcha, which was disappointing. It was super watered down, and I couldn't taste any horchata or matcha -- just cinnamon and oat milk. For food, I got the chilaquiles, and while the sauce flavor was good, the tortillas were a bit burnt and the meat on top didn't have much flavor. Overall, I'm glad I tried it to see what the hype was about, but I don't think I'll be back. read more

CasaEma - Chilaquiles and Horchata Matcha - Mexican Near Me - Houston, Texas

If you haven't been here, I am not sure what you are waiting for. One the parking is small, but it's the heights with patience there is always a spot. The line looks long but moves quickly. They have a bakery counter and yes you have to go early or all the goodies, traditional muffins, conchas, breads are gone because they are so well made. They have a full coffee bar with Mexican inspired lattes, yes try them. I love the mocha and chai, and yes they have oat and almond milk. Their entrees are amazing. My favorite has been the chilaquiles and yes it's chilaquiles but Ema style so flavorful. The chips are fresh and crunchy, the salsa is flavorful and spicy. The chorizo version happens on the weekend and it's delicious. The mole is always so good as well. Overall I need to go back to try the other traditional Mexican offerings. Plenty of space is fine inside and it's counter service and they are so good at what they do. Thank you for existing! read more

Love this place so much I decided to kick my bday weekend off with brunch here. Fast, casual but so delicious. Your experience will start in line pursuing the menu so you are ready to go when it's your turn to order at the counter. (Don't be a lame and hold up the line!) You will then receive a number and snag your table. Food is delivered to you and man.... you won't be sad about it AT. ALL. The only thing that might make you said is you will want more but not want to get back in line. LOLZ They have coffee and pastries that are great if that's your breakfast vibe. The real winners are what's on the menu.. chilaquiles and papaya salad are my favs. However, there isn't a thing on that B that I would say no to. Parking may be intimidating at first but there is a lot across the street. This time there was a parking attendant in the lot so you can potentially ask if you can't find it. Don't let this deter your though. It's 10/10 better than somewhere with good parking... Put on them Nikes and burn a few calories to prepare if you have to! Overall I'm excited about it so you should be too! read more

Been wanting to try CasaEma for a while and finally went for Breakfast on Sunday morning. We arrived around 8:15 and there was plenty of parking available and only one group ahead of us in line. Service was quick and efficient and there were lots of tables available even if some people were ignoring the sign that asked you to order before taking a seat. For breakfast we ordered the carrot taco, mushroom tetela, mole enchiladas and papaya salad. My go to breakfast is always greek yogurt with granola and berries so I was most excited to try the papaya salad. While I really enjoyed the homemade granola and the lime agave syrup, I found the flavor (or lack thereof) of the papaya to not add much to the dish. Really enjoyed the carrot taco and thought the mushroom tetela was fine. My husband said the mole enchiladas were pretty good. I also ordered the Cafe de Olla. I found it interesting that the only milks they offer are whole milk and oat milk. I enjoyed the complex flavor of my first sip but found the drink to be overall too cloying and sweet to have much more than a sip or two. Was happy to try this breakfast spot that seems to be on everyones list right now, but didn't enjoy any of the dishes so much that I would order them again if we came back. read more

SUCH A GREAT RESTAURANT!! Great food (not Tex-Mex) and probably a little different for many eaters. But trust me, you gotta try it. The savory food is very inventive and the pastries are to die for.

CasaEma - Mexican Near Me - Houston, Texas

Stopped by CasaEma for brunch today with two friends and we all had a delicious experience! They have been many times but it was my first time and everything I tried was delicious. We arrived a little before 10AM on Tuesday morning and first got some caffeinated beverages and a horchata donut to split; my horchata matcha latte was great! Not too grassy or sweet but had a very nice cinnamon flavor from the horchata. The donut was super fluffy and soft yet somehow not soggy from the filling; not too sweet either, which is perfect for me. Once it was past 10 we got back in line to order some kitchen items to split. The staff at CasaEma are super accommodating of change requests and allergies, so we were able to get a salsa verde replacement in the huarache de pollo. The papaya salad and the carrot taco were probably my two favorite brunch items but the mushrooms in the tostada were incredible, and I loved the masa cake in the chicken dish. The inside of the space is super cute and there was plenty of room to hang out while waiting for and eating our food. Definitely loved this spot a lot and would love to visit again the next time I'm in town! read more

I'm so glad my friend invited me here for a delicious brunch! It's upscale Mexican breakfast and their offerings are more than super delicious! First, my favorite drink is now the decaf horchata latte! That smooth coffee taste topped with delicious cinnamon goodness is super fantastic! I ordered one to go....I should have gotten 2. It was SO very good! Honestly I'm going to be more adventurous with decaf coffee. My friend forgot to order her drink so she just drank the free, cold, and filtered water they put out for their guests. For breakfast my friend got the bomb chilequiles. They were so good! I like mine with tortilla chips to be more soggy to take in the juice but some of hers were crispy and she said it added to the texture. She really really enjoyed it!!! She also added a dish were they pour like a green consume over it that smelled divine! I loved the presentation. I think it was vegetarian. I ordered the delicious grilled pork belly bites served with chips, salsitas, and Mexican beans with a sprinkle of white cheese. Soooo good! I know I shouldn't be eating pork buy I knew this was going to be very good and there were melt in your mouth creamy with a good amount of fat. ..... not to much at all! We did take some pastries to go: I got an elote corn muffin, a strawberry pastry, a slice of pumpkin bread. Sooooo good!!! Im ready to go back soon! read more

Been a couple of times and really enjoyed it! My only complaint is how long the line can be sometimes and how small the parking lot is. That's definitely deterred us from eating here a few times, but when we've managed to make the wait, the food is delicious. My husband and I love the huarache. I've been wanting to try their pan dulce too (specifically the conchas) but they've been sold out every time we've gone. Might need to get there earlier. Restaurant interior is nice but every time we've been it's felt very busy and crowded. It's probably a little more peaceful on a weekend. read more

We arrived at 9:30am and got through the line to order quickly. There is a window looking into the kitchen where you can see the goodies on their menu being made fresh. The space is airy and stylish with large windows and plants accenting throughout. The cortado was exactly what I was hoping for. The elote muffin was my favorite thing from the pastry cabinet, it reminded me of cornbread, but better! read more

Waited about 30 minutes in line on a Sunday morning, but it was totally worth it! The space inside is a bit tight, but it gives off a fun, friendly vibe -- definitely a spot where you eat, enjoy, and then get on with your day. We started with the French toast for the table, and let me just say -- that brioche with the fresh whipped cream was everything. I scraped off the strawberry compote and went to town on the bread, no regrets. For my main, I ordered the Huarache de Pollo. It was just what I expected in the best way. I love a good black bean spread on a masa cake, and the salsa around the plate had this unique spice that I really liked. I actually wish there had been more of that specific salsa on the huarache itself! It was a little tricky to eat with all the components piled on, but the flavor made up for it. My friend ordered the Suadero Chilaquiles, and I got to steal a few bites -- whoever came up with dill sour cream deserves an award. I'm already planning my next visit so I can order that for myself! read more

First time here and wanted to try something different. Parking is very scarce however they have a fairly large seating area inside and out. There is only one menu posted on a stand. They should either provide more or offer a QR code to view on your phone. This would be beneficial especially with a long line. There is also only one order line. So if you decide to order more after your initial order, you have to wait in line. The food was ok. I believe the sweets and coffees tasted better than our main dishes. I was hoping for more spice and less sauce. I ordered the Mushroom Tetela with half red and half green sauce. I appreciated the option of either or both. My husband had the Suadero Chilaquiles. Both of our orders were supposed to be sunny side but came out over cooked on the bottom and both dishes were too saucy for our liking. If we go back, it will be for the coffee and desserts. Both were very tasty. read more

Really cute cafe with absolutely outstanding food for a great price! We all loved it. We came on a Wednesday morning and it went too crowded when we got there, but there did end up being on a line after a while. To start we got the horchata latte and cafe de olla latte. Both were delicious! Next we tried several pastries. We got the guava and queso empanada, corn concha, and the horchata donut. All delicious, but the guava and queso empanada stole the show. So so flaky and delicious without being too sweet, and I've never had anything like it. We split a couple of the main meals. We got a couple tacos de zanahoria, suadero chilaquiles with brisket, and the puerco mole enchiladas. It was all delicious and my family all had different favorites. I liked the chilaquiles and tacos the best. Both were super fresh and bright and delicious. My husband and dad loved the enchiladas! Would order them all again, but there are so many things on the menu I'd still like to try! Wonderful place, small and quaint. Only gripe is that parking can be hard. There are a couple spots reserved just for Ema but they were full, so we were able to find street parking luckily! read more
