It's a tamale stand in a parking lot. Fantastic ambiance in my estimation. Eight big tamales for $20. Green chicken was very spicy, red pork was more mild. The vegetarian tamale was also quite spicy. Friendly service. Best fast food ever.

10/10 went here at 5 AM this morning, staff was very friendly. The tamales were piping hot and fresh. The consistency of the masa was perfect. The filling was very tasty, well seasoned meat, there could be a littttle more salsa but it's not even a big deal because these are perfect tamales in my opinion! The shop was very clean and well taken care of. Shout out to the owners for doing a great job, it is definitely worth the drive
