About Nehemiah's Restaurant

Nehemiah's Restaurant is a hidden gem especially known for its delicious tamales. The tamales have a perfect meat to masa ratio and are made with moist, flavorful masa that many say is the best in the Long Beach area. Visitors praise the soft and tasty tamales, with some noting they are among the best they've had. The green sauce adds extra flavor, making these tamales a must-try. The menu offers a variety of tempting options, including fresh squeezed orange juice. The staff is polite and accommodating, providing great service, and the restaurant is kept clean. While most customers prefer takeout, the place gets busy during the holidays, so it's recommended to order ahead. Nehemiah's is a great spot for tamale lovers or anyone seeking a tasty meal, though it might be better for takeout due to limited space and ventilation.

Hidden gem. Great breakfast burritos and nice family owned restaurant. Highly recommend! You can even order ahead.

These tamales were incredibly well made and balanced. The filling and masa complemented each other perfectly without one overpowering the other. The masa itself was rich and flavorful, which really stood out. I normally lean toward red sauce, but the green sauce here completely won me over. Even with a noticeable kick of spice, it was so good that I kept wanting more. Truly a satisfying and memorable bite.

Quaint tamale eatery. Decent tamales, nice service, welcome atmosphere.
