I wish I could give this place 1000 stars ! I am originally from El Paso but I live in dallas , And by far these are the BEST tamales ever ! & they are big ( good size ) In El Paso there is a big competition when it comes to authentic tamales and in Dallas there’s literally no where you can find a good tamales . So everytime I come in town this is my first stop ! Literally ! Even when my grandpa comes down to Dallas for thanksgiving or holidays I always send him money to bring me multiple dozens because they are just so delicious! I crave them ! On thanksgiving I’ll be eating these tamales instead of the turkey and big thanksgiving traditional feast the family makes . I’ll even hide the tamales to make them last because once people see some Pepe’s tamales , they all grab , And they don’t just grab one , They grab like 3 at a time . I would highly recommend this place ! Also Jorge who is the beautiful smile you see when you first walk in was literally the nicest most welcoming guy ! He made us feel so special because of the great hospitality he gave us . You definitely don’t get people who are this sweet and happy in life in Dallas . So it’s always great and heart warming to come across people like Jorge ! Pepe’s tamales will definitely be my go to forever in my heart place for literally the rest of my life . No other place could compare .

Pepe's Tamales is a popular restaurant known for its delicious and authentic tamales. The menu offers a variety of options, including the customer-favorite Green Chicken Tamales, as well as traditional pork and rajas con queso (roasted chile and cheese) tamales. Customers praise the perfect balance of spice and flavor in the tamales, with the masa (dough) being light, moist, and well-seasoned. The restaurant also serves a sweet tamale with raisins and anise, which is a unique and satisfying offering. The tamales are moist and delicious, and while some find the $2.49 price high for masa that is not filled like lupitas, the taste remains good. Pepe's is open early, with a tamales special available from 7 to 10 am, and they also sell barbacoa (slow-cooked beef). Customers highlight the fast and friendly service, as well as the convenient take-out format with no waiting in line. Many visitors have brought tamales home, sometimes filling suitcases with their favorites, and appreciate the possibility of shipping in the future. Overall, Pepe's Tamales is a must-visit destination for tamale enthusiasts.
