Wow! Tamales with breakfast, it'd been awhile since I've had any. These are awesome, and you can choose which tamales--I got one red with pork and one green with chicken--both have eggs on top, and a side of hash browns and refritos. Mmm! Oh, service is great and the coffee is really good, too!

Stopped here on the way to the airport. Definitely the best tamales I've had in a long time, maybe even ever. The masa is nice and seasoned, not bland like other places and the filling is plentiful and very tasty. The rice and beans is also a step up from other places. The complementary chips and salsa are great too- spicy and a little smoky. Muy Rico!
