“ Literally my new Tamale plug. their tamales are soo good they arent dry and the masa to meat ratio is perfect! ”
“ 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. ”
“ Lovely surprise. Not much to look at but the dining room and food is a superior addition to the Summer corridor. First off, following COVID guidelines. Food was well prepared and delicious. I hate refried beans and rice but these were tasty;fortunately, he also had really tasty whole pinto beans. Oh, man, they were good. I had an al pastor street taco, two chicken tamales and more than enough to share with my mom. But It is the sauces! Both red and green were tangy, bright and spicy. My husband had the al pastor burrito, the closest he's found to a San Francisco Mission style burrito. Chips and salsa fresh and homemade. If I like the chips and salsa, I'm almost guaranteed to enjoy the food. Only drawback was the runny white cheese queso. Advise you skip that. We ordered water, which arrived in huge cups. Free, easy parking. Service was so friendly and cheerful. We are headed back soon. ”

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 ”
