Really bad! I NEVER WRITE REVIEWS BY THE WAY. We used to love this place a lot. The food was good and service. However, as we continued coming, it kept on getting worst with every visit.
I WILL TELL YOU ONE THING, customer service is HORRIBLE! The ladies don’t know how to service people nor how to multi task. Expect to wait a while to be seated even though it’s empty lol The tables are always dirty and when they clean them, they will spray chemicals right next to you as you’re eating. Expect to wait long if you need something or when you ask for your check. Employees spend alot of time inside away from customers (and i mean The place is small, hole in the wall)
Today we asked for cafe de Hoya, we were told they ran out ?it was only 11 am, they offered reg coffee and we took it. It tasted like pure water, HORRIBLE. I then asked for a topo chico which is advertised with chamoy and tajin. She comes back saying they only have room temp which i said It was ok with a cup on ice. I got A plain topo chico, no chamoy or tajin. Still we let it go in spite of her Bringing it like 20 minutes later after we had to remind her . Food took for ever and all the plates came out at very different times. The beans are sooo water down now. Again, the place was empty by the way, they only had 3 tables of couples. Anyways, 2 ladies sat next to us, they order coffee and the lady comes out within 5 min and tells her “its cafe de Hoya, i just Made you a cup because we had ran out” EXCUSE ME! But we were told they ran out and brought us a disgusting water down coffee. Clearly they don’t treat customers the same and that’s shameful and we had been coming here for a while. Don’t come here, there are so many great “Sinaloa” spots in the area with good customer service. We used to always recommend this place to ppl but We will never be back here.
BEST CHILAQUILES EVER !!!!!!!

Corn elotes are delicious which they bring in from somewhere because there not made there and that’s why I’ve gone there because there customer service is mediocre and the guy that works there should work in the back cleaning the parking lot without a hat so the sun can shine on him where the sun don’t shine
Parking: Park in the back and walk to the front

The wait was long. The server took long to take our order and serve food. We asked for Cafe de Olla and received standard coffee after 15 minutes and then had to wait an additional 10 for replacement. It wasn't even busy. However, the food was freshly made and bombdiggity, so the wait was well worth it. Tamales came first and they were also freshly made. Soooo good. Oh, if you like spicy salsa, ask for it, it's ?. The one served with chips is meh.

Tamale Triumph at Carolina Tamales!Carolina Tamales in Bellflower is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Sinaloa-style Mexican food. I dove headfirst into their tamales, and let me tell you, they did not disappoint! Their signature Sinaloa pork tamale was flavorful and perfectly cooked, but the real star for me was the chicken tamale. Packed with tender, juicy chicken, it was the definition of comfort food.For something a little spicier, I ventured into the chipotle chilaquiles. The chipotle flavor was fantastic, with just the right amount of heat to make my taste buds happy. The chips themselves were perfectly crispy, not soggy at all. They came with a delicious side of frijoles de puerco (pork beans) and a refreshing macaroni salad, making it a truly well-rounded dish.Next up was the machaca, a Sinaloa specialty featuring shredded beef. The beef was beautifully seasoned and came with fresh grilled vegetables and perfectly diced potatoes. The accompanying Peruvian beans and Mexican rice were excellent complements.Carolina Tamales also boasts some seriously saucy chilaquiles verdes. If you're a green sauce fan, you won't be disappointed. They also mentioned having champurado, a perfect warm drink for chilly days.For dessert, I couldn't resist their tortillas de dulce. These sweet treats were like a delightful combination of crepes and pancakes, and absolutely hit the spot. To wash it all down, they have a great selection of drinks, including agua de cebada (barley water), horchata, and agua de Jamaica (hibiscus tea).Overall, Carolina Tamales is a hidden gem in Bellflower. The food is delicious and authentic, the portions are generous, and the service is friendly. Highly recommend checking it out!
