Little taste of home for me. I've never mastered making tamales so I come here to get my fix. During holidays heads up, order... ahead as they usually sell out. They are open all year and have a small menu to order from besides tamales. Worth the trip!! Read more
Terrible service. Received the wrong order. If you are Hispanic and know what good tamale is, then you find this is not the... place for a good tamale. Sweet corn tamale was terrible. Pork tamales have NO CHILE, not red or green. So disappointed!!!! Iwill drive to ELA to ensure I get a good tamale!!! Read more
I ordered over the phone . When I arrived my order was ready ,kept in a warmer for freshness. Check out process wasn't a hassle... .I prefer the potato and veg vegan tamale over the soy chorizo Read more
So sad to see the state of this restaurant. Before the pandemic, my family would frequent The Tamale Guy and it was so pleasant.... Now it’s just depressing. They never have anything in stock and there’s nowhere to sit, only one small table for two people.Where they used to have tables and a tv that played music, they have freezers. With all those freezers out in what used to bethe seating area you would think they would have enough ingredients but they’re always running out of something. Today theydidn’t have beans so we got two scopes of rice, if you dine in your meal doesn’t come on a plate anymore it comes in a to-gocontainer. We noticed they changed the rice, they used to use jasmine rice which was very flavorful but now they have blandwhite rice. Really my money probably would have been better spent somewhere else, like Patty’s. The tamale I had was good butmy husband’s was burnt. Seen complaints about this happening several times before. Not the most comfortable place to be in butif you’re ordering to go and only tamales should be fine unless they run out of those too. Read more

They used to be amazing!! Their vegan tamales were so delicious! Now it seems that they are never open anymore. We’ve called... several times over the past couple months during business hours and the phone goes unanswered. Also stopped by several times andthe door sign says closed and the lobby looks a mess. Thinking they may be permanently closed…or at least they soon will be ifthey keep on this path. Guess it’s time to find a new tamale supplier ???? Read more
