Based on the reviews, Tamale Mami - Little Lulus is a cute spot with SO much personality. The tamales are huge, unique, and packed with flavor. The fusion of flavors works so well together, and the newest Chicago comfort food sensation is the Italian beef tamale, a perfect fusion of Chicago food scene favorites. The Green Guadalupe has a balanced masa-to-meat ratio, and the oxtail tamale is a 10 out of 10. The oxtail and jerk tamales are like a little piece of heaven. The peaches & cream dessert tamale is warm, sweet, and comforting. The Italian ice is another highlight. The shop is beautiful with a fun selfie booth, flowers, and culture everywhere. The decor, branding, and menu names are thoughtful, colorful, and fun. It is a woman-owned business run by a mom and son, and you can feel the love and intention behind it. The tamales are made with love and care, and they are all equally delicious. Definitely worth stopping by to support a small local business doing things with heart.
