What Madeline Miller doesn't like about Tamalería La Doña:
If I could give zero stars I would! By far the worst tamales I’ve ever had! So disappointed! The masa was raw with no meat in sight, the guy at the counter was so discouraging (I should of seen the signs) he almost didn’t want to sell anything as much as he didn’t want to be there. I was visiting California thinking I’d get amazing tamales but it was as a let down. Don’t waste your money by coming here. View all feedback.

Love the corn tamales, my family's favorite. Always fresh and hot. Best corn tamales in town.
