The 10 Best Tamale Shops near San Antonio, Texas

Here is a review from an user.

Best and barbacoa and Big Red in town. Staff is friendly and barbacoa is so good. All the fat is hand picked off to leave nothing but the best. Pricing is great too! Don't miss out! Go try today!

Pork and jalapeno tamales were delicious. Even though I wanted bean and jalapeno. I could only imagine what those would taste like. Oh forgot to mention there corn tortillas were fantastic. The gentleman that greeted us was very polite. I believe that cause he graduated from Central Catholic in . Just like my son graduated from Central Catholic in . Thanks for great food and customer service.

My coworker recommended me to go and get the all meat Barbacoa, he said this one is not graesy, and the tamales they are not the best, but they are good . So I got 1lb all meat Barbacoa and 2 Dzn. of chicken and pork, my buddy told me he used to call to order, so I did it called at: 7: AM to pull my orders, then I just go inside pay and get my order, but is better to call and order to avoid the long line, last year () I went 3 times! And I recommend it to all of you.

The boy at the cash register is very kind and understanding very handsome too ;)

I enjoyed the barbacoa and carnitas. Everything was delicious. The staff was lovely and quick. My Mexican Fat kid heart was happy 😊

Real good barbacoa and all tastey

Taste just like homemade tamales. Everytime we visit San Antonio we bring coolers to stock up on their tamales!! We had to stop telling family and friends we were visiting because they were always placing orders. We just recommend they visit! We let them cool down in our hotel room.
