Emma’s Tamales is a cute little spot near the waterfront in old Sacramento, next to Railroad Fish and Chips. The staff is welcoming and friendly, with one man even bringing water for dogs. The atmosphere created by Joe is inviting, making it a favorite spot for many. Customers have enjoyed the tamales, noting the variety with over a dozen types available, including pork, green chile chicken, beef, and seafood. Many find the prices for the tamales to be very reasonable, especially given the flavor and quick service. While some have mentioned that the tamales may not be the best they've had, they are praised for being moist and flavorful. The homemade salsa is considered phenomenal, and they also offer warm chips for purchase. Although some feel that the salsa and sour cream portions are small, the prices overall are seen as unbelievable. Customers appreciate the option to take home a six-pack of tamales, vacuum-sealed for convenience. Overall, it’s a place that many would visit again for a quick, delicious bite to eat.
