We even bought some for breakfast the next day. The staff gave us instructions for the best way to reheat them. I'm glad to have gone there. I can't wait to go back and try other options on their menu. Read more Read less

I liked the soup idea rather than salsa & chips before the meal. Think the red salsa would have been even better with chopped onion & green pepper. For the dessert tamales, the pineapple/strawberry was mixed into the masa harina. It loses the flavor. I think it would be better if they rolled it out and spread it on the tamale shell and then rolled it. The waiter was excellent. Good original Mexican flavor. Read more Read less

The Tamales are very good. Try the lime ones.

The free lobster was excellent.

The tamale's are the star of the show here. We tried the Spicy Beef Tamale, Spicy Pork Tamale, Pablano Tamale's and they were all excellent. We also tried the Beef Tacos, Pork Tacos, and Chicken Tacos. Our group debated all through dinner on what was the best dish and couldn't agree it was all so good. Then we tried the Pineapple Desert Tamale. Also excellent. This will on our short list of favorites from now on! Read more Read less

liked the soup but would have like chips also esp for the rice and beans with dinner

Charged us for two quesadillas and only got one.

This place was great! We love to support local restaurants and this one was well worth the trip. We will be back.

The emphasis is on quality over quantity, though the portion sizes were certainly not small. The tamales are the best I and my wife have ever had. The masa dough is light, not dense like so many other places. It seemed a good ratio of filling to dough (though I prefer more filling). Excellent, personal service. Read more Read less

We will definatly be going back. The food is authentic
