Reviews for Tommy Tamale Market & Cafe in Grapevine, TX
I heard about this place from my friends, but haven't tried it. The flavor was good, but the meat was not good quality. I... probably spat out 1/5 of the beef because it was too tough and not edible. Good ambiance and clean facility. I gave it 4 starfrom this single experience based on what I ordered. Read more
Our first time stopping in and we were greeted with the sweetest Tommy! We had a toddler and newborn in hand and by the time we... had order he had helped us have a table set up with a high chair without us asking! The thought and extra hospitality is alwayssuch a plus! And the food was amazingly tasty and so so good. Tastes homemade and fresh and the tamales just slid out the huskbeing so moist and meat so flavorful! We can?t wait for the one in Keller to open up near us! Read more
O M G. This was worth the wait. A friend recommended it. Met Tommy he is soooo nice. Felt like home. I got the 2 pork tamale... (two was filling for me with the sides) and my husband got 2 pork and 2 beef, it was delicious. Definitely will return! Read more
Saw a YouTube channel I watch go here and loved it.Went a few days back with the kiddos to try something new, and was pleasantly... surprised. The tamales were great and the sides are good as well. Beans were runny but good flavors. Took home some frozen blackbean with cheese and chicken and they were great for frozen! Would recomend this restaurant to anyone who loves tamales. Edit.Prices are great. Good for budget meal out Read more

In search of good tamales and saw the reviews for this place so decided to give it a try. So glad we did! We had the tamale... plate and tried the pork and chicken and it was delicious. They had 3 different beans to choose from and the refried wasdefinitely the best. Owner is very personable and came to check on us. He works the floor and ensures each guest feels welcome.You can even buy frozen tamales to take home. Definitely recommend this place to try as they have several locations. Read more
This place is delicious! We walked in, were greeted, and they walked us through the menu. We ordered the tamale plate. Chicken... and pork habanero. It came with sides of Spanish rice and charro beans. Of course, we also ordered the Frito pie with a hatchChile pork tamale. Everything was amazing... All of it. This place is seriously delicious the owner even came by the tablethanked us for coming in and brought us hot sauce to try. We had a great experience, food and atmosphere! Read more
Get your tamale on! Excellent meals & cash saving specials. If your in a hurry you definitely have to stop, the wait is... negligible. Since tomales are prepared ahead of time your order is practically ready by the time you find a seat. If you don'thave time to sit the first window through the door is for to-go's only. And yes, you heard correct; I did say meal, there isenough to fill you up. Today's cash saving special was 3 tomales loaded on top with white caso, beef chili & shredded cheese.$10.00 and it came with a beverage and chips & salsa. I've driven past this place more times than I can count and almost stoppeda few times, but never did. Am I glad I dropped in today & tried the special. The tomales I got were the chicken and they justmelt in your mouth. They were topped with the chilie, but it wasn't too overpowering that you couldn't taste the chicken andcaso. We also got the beef tomale special and it was good, but there just wasn't any distinction in flavors like with thechicken. If your like me and you just keep driving bye; you will wish youd've stopped by sooner. I've already got this placeon the list for lunch next time I'm in the area.
