Wow! The Pork and Green Chile Tamale was exceptional, and the Sweet Corn Tamale was a wonderful surprise. You simply must try the beans! They are absolutely amazing! The value for the price, considering both the quantity and quality, is excellent. The tamales are truly outstanding. And did I mention the beans? Delicious!

Tamale Factory is a hidden treasure that you won’t know you’re missing until you experience it for yourself. They have an amazing deal on a dozen tamales, and the amount of filling and meat is perfectly balanced.

It's surprisingly difficult to find good tamales, possibly because I was spoiled by my great-grandmother's homemade versions when I was a child. However, the tamales from Tamale Factory are outstanding! The balance of meat to masa is just right, and they are incredibly moist. I had intended to make my own for Christmas, but I think I'll simply order some from here instead.

We ordered 1 dozen half chicken with red salsa and pork with green salsa. They had good flavor however I wasn't expecting so much mass and little meats inside. This made them a little on the dry side I will still go back to try other flavors.
