Esmeralda's Taco Shop

This was our first time eating here. We were hearing positive things about it, so we had to check it out. First of all, it was very clean, and we were greeted as soon as we walked in. They have a nice menu with lots of selections. I ordered steak nachos, and I thought they were really good! It was a very large portion and was nice and hot! My husband ordered the Birra tacos, and he loved them! They came around and checked on us numerous times and answered some questions we had. Very nice people! Very attentive! And the day we went, there was a steady stream of firefighters coming in to eat. So I think the word is getting out there that this is a nice place with good food! We will definitely go back and try some different things! Go in and give them a try! It's yummy!

I took my 2 guys and myself to Esmeralda's after spending two days loading & unloading a small U-haul truck as a Reward for Job Well Done. I am in the process of opening a very small Party, Event and Food Gift Shop in the area and thought we deserved an excellent lunch. Dang! The Chalkboard said Tamales ...Yes ..Esmeralda is on point and so sweet and helpful. When I ordered she added that these are Central America Tamale and I said Yes ...need 4 (I lived in Texas and worked in the MS Delta so I thought I knew) Man ...these things are huge and so tasty ...I ate 1 and took 3 home to the Hub. The red sauce on the side is excellent. The chips and Salsa on the table was fire. Add a couple of Coronas and your lunch is perfect. Oh ...side note - my 2 guys had the steak fajitas with empty plates at the end. Go. Check this place out!!!

Found this local spot by Google search when looking for dinner options. The service was excellent and very helpful when asked about the selections. However, the food was the highlight of the night. The popups tasted authentic, the torta de asada and the Birria tacos were beyond delicious. I would highly recommend this place and we will be back for more. yummy!

This was our 1st visit and we really enjoyed it. The restaurant was extremely clean and everything was very organized. You have to order at the register instead of your table. We ordered guacamole a.d it was some good stuff. My son had the fajita bowl and he really liked it. I had the chicken gorditas and it was delicious. The staff checked on us repeatedly. We will definitely go back.

Great food, nice people. If you live in the Olive Branch area, you should definitely check this place out. It's not the fanciest restaurant, but nevertheless, they do have great food. Shop and dine local. The owners are very nice.
