Disappointed. This is the vegetarian tamale. It should have roasted corn, peppers and cheese. It's literally nothing but masa. When you're building a tamale you can see with your own two eyes what you're stuffing it with. They still sold this knowing it was nothing but masa, so they are knowingly ripping off their customers. The masa was disgustingly sweet also, like dessert sweet. Tamale Factory used to be good years and years ago. Will never be back, grocery store tamales have better flavor and actually have stuff inside.

Excellent food. Restaurant is a lot bigger then from what it looks outside. Food was delicious and served quickly. Staff was extremely nice and courteous. Definitely coming back.

Excellent food and outdoor seating on a beautiful day made my first experience here one I will always remember! The tamales are authentic and tasty. You have to get the pineapple spinach agua fresca! So refreshing 😊

They have options: beef, chicken, vegetarian, and sweet corn tamales. You tell them if you want to add any hot sauce to spice it up.
