I stopped by here to have tamales for the first time and they didn’t disappoint! These were freshly made, warm, and delicious along with their spicy salsa. The lady behind the counter was very kind and helpful, and I got to practice my Spanish with her!
We had the chicken, beef, and jalapeño and cheese. tamales, all delicious. Great food great service from the lady at the front counter. We will definitely be back.
The tamales were very delicious. Los tamales están bien deliciosos. The only reason I didn't give it five stars was because they were very small tamales. They should easily be double the size for the price. La Unica razón que no let the cinco estrellas esporclos tamales estan muy chiquitos para al precio. Deberian de ser doble el tamanio. Not really much for atmosphere, it's just a little window where you pick up your tamales.
I’ve seen this place time, and time again and decided to stop by today. The beef tamales were very “okay” nothing special whatsoever. Chicken tamales had more flavor but also very average at best. Service was great and quick.
This is another Southwest Detroit gem that I clearly waited too long to try. It's located in the short distance between Corktown and Mexicantown on Vernor Hwy so there isn't much else within walking distance. That said it's absolutely worth a drive and stop as a stand-alone destination. The tamales come in four primary varieties (Pork, spicy pork, chicken, beef) of which we tried two. Both the chicken and pork were exceptional though the pork was marginally better. The most convenient way to purchase is by the dozen as a single tamale ???? isn't going to be enough - both due to the size and the flavor. The easiest way to order is the exterior window and remember to bring cash and wear a mask.
I got the pork tamales, with the salsa on the side. Chefs kiss ????????????Was going to take a pic of the tamales but they were gone to fast, gave some to my babys teacher, my grandmother, my kids, me and my husband lol. Everybody was licking they fingers. I came here after searching the city for homemade tamales I got a couple months back. I couldn't find them for nothing, so I'm so happy that I found this place instead!!! I met two wonderful ladies who put they foot in them tamales. I ate one to test it, because I was trying to find the place I had previously bought them from. All's I can say, is forget the last ones, these ones are the GOAT. Mrs. Susie and Mrs. Maria have gained a little family of clientele messing with me. ????❤️ These ladies are funny, inviting, honest, and have a real passion for the food they make and serve. Today was a great day already but got 10x better after stopping here.
Super expensive. Not worth it. $19 for a dozen tamales and salsa. They charge extra for salsa. Literally 98% corn and 2% chicken. I rather go to Evie's tamales. Their tamales are full of chicken and they give you salsa for free and way cheaper.
Familia. What a great place! Handmade (not machine made) tamales from a family business that embraces 4 generations of Susana's family. This is not a restaurant and it is not a store, but a Tamaleria, a place for the making of tamales. The tamales you get here are slightly more expensive than the machine-made ones you get at other places, but they are still very inexpensive and super tasty. The people who work here (at least all the ones I met) were extremely nice (yes, even you Susie) and took care of my order and everything else. I think my favorite thing was that on the day I was there an all-female mariachi band was playing across the street!
