Tucson Tamale Company

Great service, awesome food! Unfortunately I won't be back because they have discontinued my favorite tamales, cheese and chili relleno. I'm very disappointed ????

I decided to try this restaurant based on the selection of vegetarian tamale options and I was not disappointed.

The staff was polite and professional, and service was quick.

I tried the 2 tamale plate with a jalapeno and cheese and a black bean and cheese tamale. I also got the side of Spanish rice and chips and salsa. The black bean tamale was good but to be honest it tasted a bit bland. I added some salsa to it and it spiced it up. The jalapeno and cheese tamale was good. I can handle heat and spicy food and it made my nose run a little bit! Not too hot but it definitely had some kick. The Spanish rice and chips were good too. The salsa bar had several selections to choose from and was stocked and fresh.

I noticed on my way out they had dessert tamales, one of which is chocolate and cherries so I might have to go back sometime simply to try that! That sounds yummy.
