Rosa's Tamales #1 is known for its delicious Oaxaqueño tamales, as praised by customers. The masa has the perfect texture, with lots of flavor, and the chicken is shredded and generous. The green salsa is not too spicy and has a lot of flavor. The tamal Oaxaqueño has a delicious flavor, and the regular tamales de frijoles con queso are also delicious. Customers enjoy the Champurrado de Nuez and the atole, though the sweet tamales are not as good. Some have noted issues with finding hair in their tamales or a lack of meat. The size of the tamales has also been criticized for being smaller compared to street vendors. Despite these concerns, the restaurant was able to fulfill a large order of three dozen tamales for Thanksgiving, satisfying the customer's family. Totally worth the price, and highly recommended.
