Tamales to go! Best tamale spot in San Diego!The place is usually busy; so go early so you get the tamales you want. Be prepared to spend anywhere from 10 - 60 minutes waiting in line; depending on what time you go. It don’t matter tho; the tamales are worth the wait!

YAHHOOO!!!! I loved it sooo much! The kind lady behind the screen was so sweet and understood my poor Spanish! I oh so enjoyed the Tamales and my British uncle was amazed at it when I took a photo. That may be because he doesn't get much luxuries it Great Britain! I really enjoyed the beef tamale and when me and my daughters got home my youngest said "I loved that potato yummy potato taco thing" (the potato-chorizo Gordita). 10/10 would recommend if you want an authentic experience!
