Tamales Jovita is a popular restaurant known for its delicious and fresh tamales. The red chicken and beef options are particularly praised for their taste, with the beef being a standout. A single tamal is enough to leave one feeling full. The restaurant is a convenient choice for a quick, affordable meal. The two tamale plate, which includes eggs, is a customer favorite due to the unique texture and taste created by the blended yolk and masa. The enchiladas with molè sauce and Mexican rice are also highly recommended. The restaurant prides itself on using corn oil instead of lard in its beans. Many customers agree that Tamales Jovita is the best option for Mexican food in San Diego, and even compare it favorably to options available in Mexico.
