Overall, it was a good place to eat. The vegetable ingredients were wonderful. The meat could use a little more flavored but overall it was good.

*not the real deal* this is Tex-Mex style food not authentic Mexican tamales or tacos. Not what I expected it to be .

Great little spot for tamales.

This is a neat place to try. The food was good, but definitely on the spendy side. My wife and I spent almost $40 and went away hungry. We got tamales and tacos. The tamales were very small. A half a dozen of these is like two regular tamales.

Found this gem from the reviews on Google. Everything was excellent! Tacos, tamales and the chicken quesadilla were amazing. Will definitely be back .

Insanely Incredible Tamales!

I've been to many, many tamale trucks and restaurants in at least 25 states.... These are the best I've ever had!

Masa to filling ratio is perfect.
Steamed perfectly.
Seasoned perfectly.
Green sauce is perfect.
Service above excellent!
Price is spot on for top quality food.

This is a MUST TRY for anyone who loves tamales!!

I had 6 of the BEST tamales I have had since my childhood! Their mild and spicy sauces are both delicious. My boys enjoyed their burritos and nachos. The lady and the gentleman working there were very friendly and welcoming. I HIGHLY recommend!!

Went there for our first time, grandson recommended it. Alta was so sweet & explained the menu and suggested the tamale bowl. We did the spicy pork tamales and by far the best tamales we have Ever had. Can’t wait to try the fish tacos on Friday and the beef tacos next time. It’s a tiny “hole in the wall” that is clean & delicious. If you like tamales & tacos you must go!
