About Cocina de Tamales

Hidden little gem with amazing tamales and the sweetest ladies behind the counter. The homemade salsa is delicious, but the tamales need nothing extra—they're that good. Best tamales in SD, moist and full of flavor, with options for everyone. Favorites include the green chili chicken, beef, and chile cheese. The fresas con crema is a great dessert. Quality ingredients and no lard, at a very reasonable price. Everyone there is really nice and attentive, and customers will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu.

The tamales were incredibly moist and delicious—very authentic! The owner was so attentive and friendly. It’s the kind of experience you don’t find in many places anymore. They made my family and me feel right at home. I would recommend this place 110%!
Maybe the best breakfast tacos and tamales I’ve ever had? And im from Texas. Authentically good food.
Wonderful people and the food is amazing!! Highly recommend.
