I am in search of a great tamal. My gold standard are the tamales from either the Tamale Factory in Watsonville or from El Rancho Market on Willow in Menlo Park. Super Tamales are fresh, made daily and the masa is cake -like and delicious, The filling is scant and difficult to find. Super Tamales are therefore fresh but not flavorful. Unable to recommend Super Tamales unless you are doing a smog check.

Last Sunday I passed by and the man, without wanting to even talk, said that the tamales were not yet there and the time was 6am when I went, it was almost 7am... please change your hours on the internet because no one wants to waste time just because you are not ready. Still the nerve to say that since it's Sunday.....then change your hours!

These are great tamales! Whenever I need a potluck meal I grab a casserole dish from home and they fill it up! Always a hit!

(Translated by Google) Before they were good but they don't use mixed LA mass anymore. Now the tamales fall apart easily and the dough does not taste the same. I understand that they have to cut costs. There are also times when the tamales are still a bit raw and I have to finish cooking them in the oven.(Original)Antes estaban Buenos pero ya no usan LA mass mixtalizada. Ahora Los tamales se desacen facilmente y LA masa no sabe igual. Yo entiendo que tienen que cortar costs. Tambien ay veces qu Los tamales todavia estan un poco crudos y Los tengo que acabar de cocinar en El horno.

On 10/14/2022 I bought 3 dozen tamalesI bought that many to share with my coworkers.But we where so disappointed because the pork tamales did not have enough meat and to much dough.The dough was a bit dry.The tamales de raja didn't even have full slices of chile.I spent $103.00I'm Mexican I I love tamales but this are not even close to been Auntentic Mexican tamales.The chicken tamales did have a bit more chicken.When a Mexican tamale is juicy because it has a good amount of mole.So mole, plenty of Manteca or lord make the dough and the meats more moist.

These tamales are soooo good! I definitely recommend you try them. My favorite are their beef and pork. The sauce is really flavorful and the masa texture is perfect!
Veronica Trujillo
Super dry even with the sauce. Masa had little to no flavor.

Ordering process bogged down heavily by bulk ordersmade on-site and slow payment processing. Expect to wait long. Food itself is good.
Wow! Who knew you could find a decent tamal in west San Jose.Salsa is not too hot, which is actually how I like it. Thanks

I tried their tamales at their Snell location in San Jose. The tamales were fairly large, but there was no flavor. I got pork, chicken, and rajas tamales and honestly my family and I did not like them. They were bland. The chicken and pork were both dry.

Beef tamales are so good! Always drove past many times but never stopped. Finally did last week and so glad I did.No card. Cash or Venmo

These are the best tamales we have ever eaten. Each tamale (beef, chicken or cheese) is huge, about eight inches long, perfectly seasoned with just a light hint of savory heat and a moist, meaty center. At only $3 each, these are easily the best tamales in the Valley. Arrive early before they sell out.

Best tamales I've had in the area.Very convenient location, great taste, and generous portion size for the price compared to what I've had tamales go for elsewhere.Personal favorites currently are the Chili Cheese tamales and Beef tamales
