We tried one of each tamale, the pork was my gfs favorite, mine was the green chile chicken, first time trying a seafood tamale and they had 13 types of tamales. The prices for the tamales are so reasonable especially for the flavor and quick service you get! We even got a 6 pack refrigerated and vacuum sealed to go for our freezer.

Visited July 17th..see receipt.

This cute little place is located at the old Sacramento waterfront and next door to Railroad Fish and Chips.

I discovered this place while walking around the area. I LOVE tamales and they make over a dozen different kinds.

I got the beef and chicken tamale to go (to bring it back to the hotel). They were moist and flavorful! I appreciate that the prices reflect what a typical tamale would...
