Tamales Dona Tere

My favorite tamale spot bc of the masa. I can see why others wouldn’t prefer it though bc it’s a little bit more masa/meat percentage but it tastes good & has good texture . Haven’t been here since 2022 & it’s still a good comfort food spot. My favs are the tamale de pollo (verde) + tamale dulce w/raisin.

First time at this restaurant. I absolutely love Tamales. Years ago a coworker recommended this place and I never had time to go, but after today, I understand why my Spidey senses didn't allow the time. I didn't get the traditional Tamales, you know the ones that have a balanced portion of masa and filling. No, I asked for chicken, this tamale was huge. I was super excited. Only to be disappointed. Where in the heck was the chicken. Honestly, there was some much masa and the amount of filling was a joke. So, I will definitely not be returning, unless I want masa tamale, because that is what I paid more than $8 dollars for, yes I purchased 2!!! The photos tell my sad experience 😢 They are really huge, but diseptive!! I also asked for beans and rice and they said they didn't have any. Oohhh the lies and desite. I officially break-up with Tamales Dona Tere, Farewell. Zero stars if it was an option.

I can’t say enough good things about this place! The tamales here are incredible, you can really taste the difference that comes from them being handmade. They’re generously sized and packed with flavor, and the masa was Perfect. Super moist, not dry or crumbly like you sometimes get elsewhere. Every bite was tender and rich, just like a good tamale should be. For the quality and portion size, it’s an absolute steal. You’re getting homemade, hearty tamales at a great price. Whether you’re a longtime tamale lover or just curious to try something authentic and delicious, this spot is a must visit. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Check your receipts. They be charging extra for things that you didn't order and when we found out and asked they said they couldn't do anything or refund me for the extra item that i didn't ask for. They are scamming people.
