My brother got food poisoning from the chicken tamales here. The pork was average but overpacked with masa. Would not go here again.

We are Tamale lovers, and we frequently buy a several dozen then vacuum seal and freeze them. We recently drove from San Mateo to the Tamale factory for the first time, and the trip was well worth it! We had several of the freshly made tamales prior to sealing and freezing, and these were the best Tamales we have ever had by a long shot! Also, the ones we sealed and froze are still outstanding!
We will be making the trip again when we need to replenish our tamale supply.

What bad service they give. And how despotic the girls who send it seem that someone is going to ask them for it. I won't go again even though I love their tamales. Hopefully the owner will do something to resolve my complaint.

I placed an order for Christmas Eve and paid for it 2 weeks in advance. When I arrived at the schedule pick up time I was told they did not have enough food. I was shorted 4 orders of rice and beans. How can this happen. Obviously this was an order for a Christmas Eve meal where I was expecting to serve many guests. The whole operation was disappointing walking up to an outside tent with the food being stored in some sort of containers and the food that I did get was not great. It was cold and very disappointing.
THE SERVICE IS THE WORST, THEY HAVE NO ORGANIZATION, THE WAITING LINE IS MORE THAN 1 HOUR, THE TRUTH THE SERVICE IS VERY SLOW, SUPER SLOW,👎
Cramped place, Tamales have no flavor barley any sauce, undercooked pasty mess. Feels like I got Walmart tamales. If you want flavor bring salt or add sour cream and salsa
