Miah R W.March 14, 2017Everything I've had I really liked, sadly I have yet to order the tamales though I hear really good things about them. I eat here 2-3 a week for breakfast so I can say it's pretty solid!- Houston PressAugust 12, 2014A Houston institution since 1960, Alamo Tamale has not just branched out into several different locations around the city, but can be had from anywhere in the country.

- Houston PressSeptember 25, 2013The homemade tortillas and hand-rolled tamales are out of this world! The tamales are perfectly plump and filled with just the right amount of savory pork.
T DNovember 3, 2013Love the tamales here.. the handmade ones are the only way to go!! Pricey but worth every dime. .
Urenia GarciaJanuary 19, 2014They take cash only,but they have an ATM inside. They have good hot sauce & they give you a lot of meat on your tacos. Good food outdoor eating
Angela CarmonaDecember 24, 2012Their homemade tamales are great. And they are friendly. They carried my tamales to the car for me. They are open tomorrow Christmas Day until 2pm.- Sheila VillarrealMarch 18, 2014Handmade Authentic tamales and tortillas! Great place for a quick pick up lunch plate to go!
The homemade chicken tamales are the way to go. Green sauce is milder than the red sauce. Best tamales in town... You're welcome.- Pork & Chicken tamales are simply the best in town. Make sure they are homemade not machine made. Big difference!
Cynthia CardenasDecember 5, 2015Prices went up on the tamales!! Guess we'll have to start looking to buy closer to home or making our own again. 12. 99 is not worth the drive. Smh, greedy.
Alamo is hopping today with everyone getting their tamale fix for Christmas :)
