👍👍 Not normally a hard shell taco eater, but these were EXCEPTIONAL! They were recommended to me and did not disappoint. It was so good because we ate it there when they were almost too hot to hold. The service was also great and food was served quick. Street parking was also very easy.

Tamalería La Doña

Mexican restaurant

😠 If I could give zero stars I would! By far the worst tamales I’ve ever had! So disappointed!

Tamales Guadalajara

Mexican restaurant

😠 The tamales are salty and dry. I had high expectations because they are from Guadalajara and the food there is delicious. Unfortunately, dining in is even more disappointing. The coctel de camaron has shrimps smaller than the ones that cup-o-noodle has and they only give you four pieces. Seriously!...
