I have been going to this spot for almost ten years now and I still have not found any tamales better. They’re authentic and so good ( I think I’m addicted, lol). This is a family owned spot but the ladies in the back know what they’re doin. And the salsa is so good I can eat that individual by itself (seriously). I recommend everyone to try them out, I promise you won’t be disappointed…. Heading that way now
Susie, the owner, is amazing—funny, witty, and such a joy to talk to! All the tamales are absolutely incredible. Highly recommended! We’re from out of town and will definitely be back just to get more.. Cindy and Travis
Been coming here for decades, at 20 dollars a dozen though that is a hard stop! The price has increased around 4/5 times since Covid. Now it has turned into gouging. I would understand if the tamales have gotten bigger but not smaller over time. They also benefit from CC fees by being cash only.
