  Took my in-laws here as they wanted some "authentic" Mexican food. I'm very aware of my pale AF complexion, so I consulted with some friends who recommended Tucson Tamale Company. I had never had tamales before so I can't judge the authenticity, but it was DELICIOUS! We got an assortment and took them home to enjoy. My in-laws thought they were so delicious, they plan to order some online and have them shipped back to New York.

  I have been coming to this place for years because of their fast service and delicious food. It's also healthy and local!! I don't know what more you could want. If you're visiting Tucson this is a great place to understand a part of this culture and also the flavors involved!

  Update- Tucson Tamale has worked to make this situation better. I appreciate their attention to customer service and their willingness to hear me out. Since I did not speak about the food originally I just have the say the Tamales are AMAZING! Original review- This time my experience was horrible. My previous experiences with Tucson Tamale have generally been pretty good. I generally only order catering and generally spend $350 + on each order. Tucson Tamale is a favorite of my company and many people order from there, however I will be sharing my poor experience with others who tend order from them at my company. I ordered 2 meat options and 2 veg/vegan options (as well as multiple sides and dessert). The order was repeated back to me and it was correct. A few days before my catering order was to be delivered, they called me back to let me know they did not have my dessert but offered a different option. I agreed to the replacement option and asked for a total. I was later called back and given a different total ($80 more) because they forgot to charge me for the dessert. I ended up removing the dessert from my order. During both of these interactions, the rest of my order was not confirmed. When my order was delivered, 16 of the tamales were incorrect and there wasn't any salad dressing (for a salad large enough for 20 people). I tried calling twice, but the phone just rang (possibly no answer due to lunch rush). When I finally got through to someone and explained my order was incorrect and we didn't get dressing, the person I spoke with spoke with the GM. Instead of the GM getting on the phone with me to discuss this mistake, he had his employee tell me I was wrong and he knows without a doubt that I did not order the red chili tamales, I ordered green corn. This is just not the case. I have my order written down, the person who I share a cubical with heard me place my order, and why would I order 16 green corn tamales when I had already ordered 10 of the chili rellano tamales, which are essentially the same thing? When I reminded the employee the size of the business our company provided, all she could say was that she was sorry. It seems unfortunate that Tucson Tamale Company would want to lose our business over a mistake. They took ownership for forgetting the salad dressing, but refused to acknowledge any error on their part for the wrong tamales.

  I love tamales and I think it’s awesome that they have so many vegan options. I give four stars because it’s a bit of a hole in the wall – and when I was there the workers seemed a bit confused as to what they were doing. it took a really long time to get my food and I was pretty much the only person in the place. I would probably not go here for dinner, but lunch is perfectly awesome and super tasty.

  Hier solltest du gegessen haben, wenn du Interesse an "lokalen Spezialitäten" hast. Die Ausstattung ist rustikal im typischen American Diner Style.
