The Tamale Man Torrance, CA 90501 – Restaurantji
Waited for an hour but worth it in the end. Masa had good flavor and the meat as well. I got the 3 meat tamale with rice and beans.

When they say these tamales are something to behold, they’re not kidding. Something to try at least once. A “super super” tamale (2 extra meats plus rice & beans sides, or a super duper (loaded up with 3 extra meats). This plate is a TON of food for one person (too much for me). It is a LONG wait for food (not to ding the friendliness of the service and appears each order is prepared from scratch) with often a long line and this is not someplace you come to sit for the atmosphere LOL

Enough food to feed a family. Got the three super tamale. Flavor was fantastic. Take some of that green salsa too. Sandia /; watermelon fresca was great too.

If you’ve seen the owner on YouTube, he is exactly the same way in person. He will ask you if it is your first time eating there. If it is, he also says, Are you prepared to change your life? The food, all I have to say is wow! I ordered the super super duper tamale. This thing is huge! You get three meats with a side of rice and beans. I tell you it can easily feed 2 people probably 3. The toppings are a heaping handful of cheese and a half of sliced avocado. The Masa for the tamale is flavored very well, and everything you get is flavored well. I will say parking is not the easiest thing. And be prepared to wait in line for your food. But the weight is very well worth it. I fully recommend the super super duper with pork asada and shrimp. Will I go back and eat there again….hell yeah!!!

Waited for an hour but worth it in the end. Masa had good flavor and the meat as well. I got the 3 meat tamale with rice and beans. For sure, feeds 2 people. Very limited seating inside, but I got lucky to get a table to eat it fresh. They did open at 1pm, and I don’t know if that is the time they open. My kids and wife also liked it. I got 2 orders of the 3meat tamale(super super duper tamale) and 3 Agua Fresca for 55$.

It would be nice if they told the customers that their options are limited about 2hrs before closing. Staying in line for almost an hour and getting told “all we have is tamales,” so no chile reyno, no burritos, no mulitas, and no burgers. At least put up a sign that says we limit our menu 2 hours before closing. The service is slow, the portions are generous, the options for meats are limited but the environment is not nice. We got shot at while waiting in line with an orbz gun on Aug 12 at night(only to be told by a customer in line to say that happens).

Me and my friend came at night and the line was short. We waited 1 hour to place the order. when we got to the counter I was curious how many people were working (2) and the guy that took the order had the nerve to say to me “what are you looking for?” I recognized him right away from the Instagram Videos. He thought I was some type of health Inspector

The wait is long, but it is very fresh food & definitely worth the wait. The tamale was most & soft, plus the additional meat items added… WOW so good definitely willing to go back.

Highly over rated food with higher prices than the competition in the area. Not only that the owner who works the cashier is very in your face trying to sell you the most expensive thing in the restaurant. He comes across like a desperate used car salesman and seems to get angry if you don’t buy the most expensive thing. Overall stay away. Be aware of his bait an switch tactics as he will change the price on you and wont give you receipt. The place is filthy too. Don’t believe the fake reviews about this place. You’ve been warned

Stay away from this place is a rip off. Yesterday I went there to get three tamales, and a short man charged $59.00 dollars. The tamales were so nasty I threw them in the trash.

5.0 & none below!! Super Duper 3 Meat Tamale plate is a secret item not shown on the menu. It’s massive and all the rave on Tik Tok. Whole lotta flavor. Friendly service, but due to heavy demand, it is highly recommended to order ahead.
