This place is great and you should go there and get tamales.
I tried to break a $5 so my 2 year old daughter could ride the car toys around the corner from the food court(the machine will only break $1 bills). This is clearly not their issue, but I figured they would simply say no if they were unable to provide change for a $5. The woman behind the counter was in the middle of making change when the man told her to stop. She put the money back into the cash register and changed her mind. I then tried to purchase a cup of water as advertised on their menu for $1. He said he wouldn’t sell it to me but would sell me a bottle of water for $2. I obviously obliged and paid the $2 and told him to keep the bottle of water as he clearly needed it more than I did. While I’m unable to comment on their food, I will never be back as the couple was extremely rude. They had an opportunity to be decent store owners, as providing change doesn’t impact their bottom dollar whatsoever, but they failed to do so. Que Dios te haga justices cuando llegue tu momento.
The horchata and tamales were both fantastic!!

We loved the tamales and carne asada nachos! Definitely recommend if you are in the area. This is a hidden gem inside Merle Hay Mall Food Court. Didn’t get pics because we were too busy enjoying!

i ordered a meat quesadilla and it was horrible and it was all dark veiny looking meat. its like a cheapy version of mexican. first and last time here and threw my fake mexican rice and quesadilla away . never again
Tamales were dry and bland won't be going back very disappointed for the price
some of the best food you'll find in all of Des Moines consistently good for the start. big fan for many years
