“ Great old school joint! Low prices, terrific enchiladas, great staff, cheap drinks. I've had better tamales, but they have a bunch of different types at good prices. Their chips have always tasted stale to me, I assume because they leave them out in a big bin. ”
“ A traditional lunch with traditional Mexican-American dishes. Enchiladas smothered in melted cheese and red sauce, a crispy chile relleno, traditional tacos in the hard shell, rice with kernels of corn and other interesting bits and pieces, thick refried beans, corn chips and red salsa. There was one item with a difference - Mexican egg rolls! They were quite good, crunchy and also chewy, served with a small side of tasty green chile. I would like to go back soon just to try them again. On a Sunday afternoon, the place was moderately busy, but the two young women working the dining room were attentive and cheerful. ”
“ Great food, very reasonable prices, a couple TV's, food came out in like 7 minutes. Wish they gave free refills on chips and salsa, but 2 for a refill is not bad. Pleasant service with a smile, which is pretty rare these days. ”
“ Always great food and fast. Super cool about our little man accidently knocking his plate of rice all over the floor. Make sure to stop by! ”
“ I love all the tamale kitchens but this is probably my favorite because of their breakfast burritos. Just something about this location ”
