This place was referred to me by one of my patients. I kept saying I can't find any decent tamales since I moved here two years ago. She was please tell me about this lovely little spot I absolutely love their tamale options and have gone back multiple times. My husband was surprisingly pleased with the rice and beans (he's not really a Mexican food fan). I would definitely highly recommend this place!

This is the best Mexican food I’ve ever had. They have a daily special, and you can go in and get the special and it’s going to be the best meal you’ve had in a long time. They are awesome. You could eat here every day and it’s always going to be excellent.

Once this restaurant is USDA inspected, I will be the inspector. If you are looking for and familiar with good authentic tamales, this where you need to be. I'm picky with my tamales, I can make my own and do a fairly good job for a sister lol. Mine mirror their's, just the way I love them. Seasoned, and the right amount of heat, perfection 👌 🔥 🥰 😋
