At first, I was skeptical when my wife mentioned a place called Tamales El Tamalero. I’ve tried so many tamale spots over the years that just didn’t live up to the hype. But, long story short—I decided to give it a try, and I honestly can’t find the words to express the satisfaction I felt here. From the welcoming customer service to the quality of the food, this place is on a whole different level.

After years of searching for truly exceptional tamales, I finally found them here. The way they blend flavors is amazing, and the grand surprise was the chilaquiles topping on the tamales—just wow! And their champurrado? It’s one of the best I’ve ever tasted, so rich and delicious. Tamales El Tamalero is an experience worth savoring!

The tamal I recently tried was an absolute delight, perfectly encapsulating everything a tamal should be. Wrapped in a warm, soft corn husk, it was filled with a savory blend of ingredients that melded together in perfect harmony. The masa was incredibly soft and fluffy, moist but not overly so, which made it the ideal base for the filling. Inside, the spiced pork (or chicken) was tender and flavorful, infused with a sauce that had just the right amount of kick.

What really impressed me was the balance of flavors—nothing was too overpowering, allowing each bite to highlight the rich, earthy taste of the masa with the slightly tangy and spicy filling. The aroma itself was mouthwatering, transporting me to a place of comfort and warmth. This tamal was clearly made with love and tradition, and it’s the perfect comfort food for any time of day. A must-try for tamal lovers!

If you have been disappointed by all the tamales being sold outside of stores or grocery stores like I have come try tamales el tamalero.
