Tio's Tamales is a small, hole-in-the-wall restaurant with limited seating but amazing food. The Mexican hamburger burrito is a must-try, and the portions are generous. The Tamale plate, Chile Relleno plate, and Chicken Quesadilla are all excellent choices, with the green sauce standing out. The tamales are highly praised, often described as the best ever, and the chile relleno plate is considered heavenly. The owner is friendly and engaging, adding to the welcoming atmosphere. The restaurant's small size is complemented by a big love for cooking authentic Mexican dishes such as tamales, chimichanga, and tacos, with all sauces receiving high praise. Visitors note that the entire menu is addictive and worth the effort to visit. While parking can be a challenge, the unique regional Mexican fare and friendly service make it a top choice for Mexican food lovers. Many customers appreciate the authentic flavors and quick service, making Tio's Tamales a favorite spot on the island.
