Customers often praise the vegetarian tamale option, which is highly recommended, as well as the vegetarian chili relleno. The chicken tamales remain a popular choice. Many reviewers mention that the tamales are hot, moist, and tasty, making it a good source of authentic tamales in the South Bay. Some customers have noted that the quality can vary, with occasional tamales being heavier on masa. During holidays, demand is very high, so planning ahead is advised to avoid long waits, especially for online orders. Prices are reasonable, and the restaurant is known for its fast, delicious service, making it a favorite for those who enjoy tamales. Customers also appreciate that even after freezing, the tamales still taste outstanding, prompting frequent trips to replenish supplies.
