About Granny's Tamales Houston

Granny's Tamales in Houston is a popular spot known for its tamales, available in various flavors such as bean and cheese, jalapeño and cheese, spinach and cheese, pork, and chicken. Many customers say the jalapeño and cheese tamales are particularly delicious, though some find them flavorless and smaller than expected. The masa to filling ratio is praised for being balanced, and the tamales are noted for their non-greasy texture. Recently, the restaurant introduced new brisket tamales, which many customers now consider their favorite. People often buy several dozen at a time and recommend ordering early for the holidays because they get busy. The tamales land in your stomach like a firework on the Fourth of July—full belly, full soul. The spices create a flavor symphony, and the meat is juicy. Despite some mixed reviews about flavor and authenticity, Granny's Tamales is well-loved for its friendly service and the magic touch that makes its tamales so special.

OMG! Best tamales I’ve ever had 10/10 smoked brisket!
1st time to try Tamales here and they were absolutely delicious! The rice and beans were also delicious!
I'm pretty particular about my tamales. If they don't taste like my grandmother's I don't want them. I picked some up today and tried them in the car. Perfecta! Will be ordering more for Christmas dinner!!!
