Tamales Irma is a beloved spot known for its delicious and flavorful tamales. The tamales are wrapped in banana leaves, which makes them moist and flavorful, and are available in a variety of types including chicken, pork, jalapeno & cheese, pineapple, and sweet tamales. The pork tamales are wrapped in banana leaf, keeping them super moist, while the chicken ones are wrapped normally and still taste great. The tamales are often served with salsa, which is very hot but incredibly flavorful, and some reviewers mention that their salsa can burn a hole but they still consider it "bomb." The Chicharon in chipotle sauce is a standout, made with whole pieces of chicharron, not ground, and is highly praised. The salsa accompanying the tamales adds extra heat and flavor, making the experience even more enjoyable.
The owner is friendly and recognizes regular customers, creating a warm, family-like atmosphere. The food truck makes it easy to find and access, and the staff are efficient and nice. The place has a strong reputation built over 15 years as a go-to for fresh, quality tamales. Many reviewers appreciate the consistent quality, friendly service, and variety of flavors, including options like Mole, Chicharron, and Elote. Payments are convenient via Venmo or cash, and call-in orders are welcomed. The place is perfect for morning runs or weekend breakfast. Overall, Tamales Irma offers a delicious, reliable, and friendly experience, making it a must-visit for tamale lovers.
