• 6/28/26It was my first time ordering from this place. It hurts so much about it. The tamales were on point had a lot of flavor. It was so good. I would definitely order again the tamales The Menudo could've been better. There wasn't much tripe or Hominey in the cup. It was more broth than anything.

• 2/3/26I ordered the Empanada Beef (each), Pork Handmade Tamale (Tamale Puerco Caseros), plus the red and green sauces. The empanada was extremely small for the price (almost $5) and I did not like the taste — I threw most of it away. The tamale lacked seasoning and was just okay. The green sauce was slightly better, but still not very flavorful or spicy. The red sauce tasted very bland. The packaging was good, but overall I would not order these items again.
