Tamales we’re the BEST and we’re huge! We had pork with the Texas chili sauce. Great service in quaint setting!
Outstanding service, food,everything was great here.
I came here a couple years ago and got the Migas with queso and have dreamed about it since. I just came back in 2026 and the Migas were as good as I remember! The atmosphere is so cute - perfect for a little bachelorette group to get a meal.

Based on the reviews, Tamale House is a vibrant and cozy spot tucked away just off 6th street. The food is described as outstanding, fresh, and flavorful. Specific meals mentioned include the chicken tamale, Mom’s breakfast plate, the Best Migas in town, and the Mexican Iced Coffee. The pork tamales are really good, with the masa cooked just right and a good meat-to-masa ratio. The guacamole and salsa are both fresh, and the tacos are a 10/10. The outdoor patio is quiet with lots of vibrant colors. The staff is very nice, and the owner is sweet. The place has a classic old Austin vibe that is unparalleled. The holiday decorations are pure joy. While some reviews note the tamales were slightly greasy, the overall consensus is that the food hits the spot. The restaurant is a favorite breakfast taco joint for many, and reviewers would definitely go back and recommend it.
