Stopped into Tucson Tamales tonight. The food was absolutely spectacular! Every bite tasted new, fresh, and delicious. I was excited every time to take that bite. This IS my new comfort food. Next time I am craving Mexican cuisine, I will be coming here! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. We instantly felt like part of their family. The staff knew the regulars on a first name basis, as they walked through the door to the shop. This locally owned business makes their customers first priority. Jaycen and Nashara are hard working, and took great care of us. They are definitely beneficial to this Locally Owned Business. And a blessing to the customers experience. I personally had the Loaded Nachos with cheese, pinto beans, tamale beef with green hatch Chilies, and a brownie. The brownie was soft, and sweet. It was a nice dessert. The tortilla chips (and regular tortillas) were fresh. We had salsa from their salsa buffet, and that paired great with the nachos. The beef was so full of flavor that I was salivating before each bite. The smell of the fresh tamales had my stomach growling for more, even when I was stuffed full. I recommend this Locally Owned Business, 11/10! P.s. get your Tamales here! They KNOW Tamales.

Tuscon Tamale is a nice spot to grab legit tamales. They have a great selection, including a vegan option, and the sides and salsa are all freshly made - including the chips. They also have a huge selection of hot sauces to buy and a big case of the samplers to use with your meal. I wish they had prices labeled on the shop side, but they do have a friendly staff, so asking is not difficult. They have nice clean, single person bathrooms and the nicest murals in them. It's definitely a stop worth making if you are in the area.

The tamales were generously filled and not a bit dry, which cannot always be said at other places. The salsa bar was pretty mild as far as heat. Service was great.

Never had tamales for breakfast before lol We were staying across the street and walked into this place. If you love tamales and hot sauce, this is the place to be. I ordered the 2 tamale plate (chicken and pork). Came with rice. (12) All very good. Fresh salsa bar. Employees were super helpful. Clean restaurant. Music was 1990s hip hop and rnb.....perfect!

I was looking to try some local food outside my hotel and found this gem. I had a burrito and chips and salsa. All of the food was fresh and tasted great. The highlights for me were the salsa bar and very large selection of hot sauces to try. The Xtreme regret sauce definitely lived up to it's name

We're in Tucson for a long weekend. My wife recommended this place because she ate there on her last trip. I was skeptical. First time I ordered I had a chicken tamale and a pork tamale. After you took our order I went over to the salsa bar and got the condiments that I wanted. They had different salsas to try and jalapenos and limes to grab as well. When our food came I was absolutely blown away. It was so good! I haven't had tamales too much in my life and these were so good that we returned another time before we left. This time I had the pork chicken and beef tamales. All are absolutely fantastic! The staff was very nice and friendly. The atmosphere was fun. They had hot sauces that you could buy from several different brands. Most of what I've never heard of before. There was an area where you could also sample some of the hot sauces as well. I look forward to going again when we return.

We ordered for a catering event of 30 people and I cannot say enough great things about our experience! From placing the order to pick-up, everything was throughly communicated and supported. I cannot believe we fed that many people for less than what it would cost in a restaurant and less than what large chains quoted us, with plenty of leftovers! We had 3 tamale flavors, pan of rice, beans & street corn, more than enough chips with pico and 3 salsa flavors limes, including white chocolate macadamia cookies. Not only is their food packed with tons of flavor, everything stayed fresh, nothing was over-dried, even outside in the heat. I am so grateful and pleased with their quality and service and would do it again and again. Thank you so much Tucson Tamale !!

The food was absolutely amazing (We ordered food for a birthday party)!! There was so much food as the portions were extremely generous. The quality and value were above and beyond, and the other quotes from other chain restaurants who offer catering were not even close. Frank was so very helpful and kind when I picked everything up from the restaurant. He personally loaded up the car. If you like different hot sauces, they have a whole long wall with a variety that would please any palate. We would certainly come here again for food our future events and gatherings! I would highly recommend this establishment for anyone interested in food for any occasion. Stop by for a meal and check it out!!
