What Liv N likes about Tamales El Mexicano:
Super moist masa, good amount of meat and everything is flavorful. I purchased a mix of pollo, pork, and queso tamales and they were all gone in a day. Very nice man helped me. Thank you! View all feedback. What Patrcio G doesn't like about Tamales El Mexicano:
Absolutely not never again It's a cart next to a trashcan and only does cash. Good luck. Somebody's gonna get sick there. How much more do you want me to say before I can post this View all feedback.
