    The tamales are excellent. They have new flavors including a Nopales which was quite tasty. We like this place enough that when our friend's mom passed away, we took the family 4 dozen tamales so they wouldn't have to cook. They have both savory and sweet, veggie and meat. I particularly like the red bean and jalapeno.

    Ever since I went back home to Colorado I have been craving some good tamales so my mom took me here and they did not disappoint! The eating area is very clean. The young man taking the orders is very friendly. I love the green salsa that they give to a go with the tamales.

    Yes! Authentic Mexican food. Some good vegetarian options too. The ambiance is not so good. The door slams really loud. But the staff is friendly, the food is tasty and the price is right. I'll definitely go back.

    Great service and food. Really really yummy vegetarian options. Cashier was super lovely and gave us an extra tamale too! Affordable and delicious!

    I didn't expect their salsa to be so good, but it is literally drinkable. I did it. I wish I had grabbed another container to go with the half-dozen cheese tamales that I bought which are aiight. Better than store-bought, not quite holiday homemade.
