I go here every week, the food is great and the people are always friendly. Highly recommend!
The best tamales I have ever had!!! And their atole is incredible. Can’t recommend more!
Field trip to Pilsen! On the way back from exploring the museum. I had already stopped at the local bakery and brought a Mexican roll (bolillo) and a soda. Picked up some tamales, walked across the street and had an impromptu picnic at Harrison Park. Price per tamale was reasonable, size of tamales was large and the meat fillings were generous. Lady was very nice! Highly recommend if you need a good tamale fix.

Fiesta Tamaleria el Barrio is a restaurant located in Pilsen on 18th street, known for its delicious tamales. The restaurant offers a variety of fresh tamales, including red chicken, green chicken, red pork, green pork, beans and cheese, pepper and cheese, and sweet options like strawberry, guayaba, coconut, and pineapple. The tamales are fresh, moist, and substantial, filled with flavorful pork in both red and green sauces. The atole is phenomenal, especially on cold days, with options like sweet potato. The restaurant is small, with only a counter and a few tables, making it mostly a takeout establishment. The staff is friendly and kind, and the prices are reasonable. Some customers note the tamales could have more filling, but the masa itself is very tasty. The tamales are a favorite among customers, reminiscent of homemade tamales. The restaurant is a great option for those looking for authentic and delicious tamales.
