Chicken tamales are awesome! Called in an order close to closing time and was kindly accommodated even though they were in the process of cleaning up and such (the owner was shucking corn when I came in!). I even added to the order while the initial one was being prepared without being made to feel that I was being problematic. Had a nice convo with the owner about the history of her place. Nice staff, clean facility and good food!
