As for the taste of the tamales, everything's fine, although given the size, the price ends up being a complete rip-off. Want a more illustrative example of roughly the bite you're going to put in your mouth? Well, imagine the average wrist of a young woman. Got it? Now, a girl approaching her teens... and that's roughly the width; for length, bring your index fingers together, touching both of them over the second mark/line on your palm, just above the beginning of the finger... yeah, basically a mini tamale.nnBut let's say you don't mind spending that much for a tamale—which in itself isn't much... so let's go with the service side, and the thing is... they don't quite understand. No one's even waiting to see a customer—the service itself isn't rude—but it's definitely not friendly either.nnThey leave you waiting for about seven minutes to reheat a tamale instead of having some already prepared (and I was early), and they end it all with a blank expression, or at least that's how it was the time I was served, and I don't seem to be the only one with more or less that kind of experience.nnIf none of this matters to you, enjoy your tamale! And beware, they don't have vegan atole options in case that matters to you.

Outstanding tamales! I wish I would take more than two. Take-away only.

Favorite vegetarian tamales. They deliver home starting from 80 pieces, so I always have a stash in my freezer. Otherwise, I order and pick them up. Best one are hallaca, tzotobilchay, rajas con queso and espinacas con mantequilla.

The tamales are good. Terrible service, you arrive, no one attends to you even if they see you. You greet them to make yourself present, they look at you, they don't return greetings and they continue doing their thing... You say hello again and several minutes later they finally serve you, as they heat up the tamales they leave again although there are more customers waiting... Several minutes later... The customers leave due to lack of attention.... Bad, bad, I don't know who is responsible for the business where they are. Invited not to return
