I picked up 2 Dozens Tamales this morning after a family friend recommended but I never expected to have the worse tamales Ever!! The más is Raw and not all the way cook just scraped right off. The tamales have almost NO Meat in the See the Pictures Below. The flavor was Ok but only ate a bit off the center and trashed the rest.

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.

These people know what they’re doing. The cheese and chicken are the favorites among our extended family of white people. Good, friendly service.

La Doña! If I couldn’t get my mom’s Tamales, these are the next best thing. They are amazing and delicious! I know other people have different taste buds, but I always tell my kids to try new things once. If you don’t like it, then you don’t like it. I’d recommend this for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or late night snack. They’re not open late night! I usually buy half a dozen, so I could have some for the next day. You have to wear a mask, so have some respect for this great small business.

2025 UPDATE:

Bought 6 doz tamales for Thanksgiving 2025. Major disappointment ‍ . Tamales are much smaller, very little meat and dough breaks as if not well cooked. Tasteless!

I drove to South Gate from Chino since this USED TO BE my go to tamale place.

Price is around $2.50 per tamale, however, I’d ather pay $3 at Northgate Gonzalez and get a delicious, normal size tamale, with lots of meat in it and packed neatly in a nice sturdy container, by flavor.

I don’t understand what happened to La Doña, but they are longer what they used to be. Sad…

3 Weeks ago I ordered and paid 3 doz tamales, over the phone for Christmas eve pick up. A week ago I called to re-confirm my order, just in case and to prevent any issues.

My pick up time was 9AM but having heard of their long lines on my pick day I called at 6:15am to make sure they would be ready. The manager was very nice and told me they were ready already and I could stop by anytime. I asked how long the line was and she said “The line is very long, but don’t worry about that. Since you ordered and paid in advance just come straight to the front to the pick up line.

OMG! I rushed over and the line was like 3 blocks long. I parked, and as instructed went all the way to the front. The pick up line was empty so they gave me my 3 doz tamales and I left. Was in and out within 3 minutes. The best part is that the tamales are DELICIOUS. BIG, LOTS OF MEAT. My loved them and this is now my go to place for tamales. Amigos, skip the line. Order and pat over the phone…FELIZ NAVIDAD ⛄
