Saucedo Tamale Factory

I usually use drive thru ppl always friendly fast service tamales r good

Excellent tamales but they need to improve the size of them. The taste is awesome but they are too small 😭

Food is generally good, I’ve heard both positive and negative reviews from this place but I myself have experienced good service, food, & atmosphere, not a lot to say I usually stop by for burritos in the morning, do t really dine in. Overall would recommend.

Expected more selections of meat for the tamales. The pork tamales were a little bland, but the masa ratio was perfect.

I ordered some breakfast burritos the size and the amount of those burritos are great. BUT the burritos were too greasy very greasy did not have a good taste ,all you could taste was the grease we were not happy or satisfied . I bought tamales there too and they're also very greasy.

Been coming here for years. And this past 2024 and now 2025 their tamales 🫔 SIZE are horrible they keep getting thinner and thinner. We used to buy them for work and to feed coworkers but the size they make them now is RIDICULOUS!!! To better explain it the tamales 🫔 out of a can are bigger than what Sausedo is selling now, paid $16.23 for what they call a dozen is ridiculous and very upsetting. I understand they use a machine to make their tamales 🫔 but they can also adjust the way the machine makes them. I'm not the only one complaining about their tamales at work people have been complaining and friends and family. So we have just decided to go somewhere else..

I've been a loyal customer but it's been 3 times I come and the tamales are old and dry. Even after I asked and didn't complain nothing was done. Looks like I'll need to find a new tamale place

Wish I would have read the reviews first :( The barbacoa was old, dry and disgusting. The tortilla and salsa was good. Will not be returning, sorry I wasted my money.

this place used to be a hidden gem but I went there today granted it was right at opening time but all of my tamales had a crunchy texture.. H-E-B tamales were better than today $24 wasted 3 hot 1/2 dozen

The hot tamales are not good at all wouldn't recommend getting them ever.The service was ok I ordered 4 dozen hot tamales and it didn't take no more than 5 mins which should've been the first red flag that these tamales are not fresh at all. I didn't go inside so I can't say nothing about cleanliness of the inside or the atmosphere.

This place is always busy for breakfast. Most people go thru the drive thru. I really like their breakfast burritos they are very well seasoned which a lot aren't. The green sauce is not hot but good flavor. I think I paid $3.75 for a nice sized burrito.

This place had the best gorditas in all of Odessa. I think they have a new owner and the young man that is working there is NOT a good employee. My Gordita's have RAW masa The medudo smelled like poop which made me think it was not cleaned at all. This place has really gone down hill and there is never anyone there any more. I do not wonder why!!! I see why !!'

I went yesterday and ordered the tacos. It's been more than 10 years since I've eaten here but I have always loved the tacos. They weren't as good as I remembered the meat had no taste and they put cabbage instead of lettuce. They were ok not the mind blowing tacos I remember. The green sauce is delicious

If you want the nastiest tamales , old reheated since who nows when go to saucedo it's crap crap never had nasty ass tamales like this old and dry damm

Literally found a grub/larvae/worm in my food mid-bite through a tamale. Management refused refund but offered in store credit for more food. Absolute joke.

Crap! crap! Crap! I will never eat here Keep finding God knows what in them, like cartilage or something to that nature the worst I've ever had! And rude ass people as well!

I ate there 8/12/2019. It had been awhile I was very happy I did. The drive thru is a little slow but that is ok it gives me time to relax a minute. I ordered ham egg cheese and potatoes. Plus a doz. Tamales. The burrito tasted like they used to very very good. We'll seasoned and fresh. The tamales although a bit greasy they were umm good. Like always not to much masa, hot from heat and not to spicy. Just right. I been eating at Saucedos for over 25 years plus the food has always been very good. Try them I think you will be happy. Their prices are reasonable as well.

Anything with papas is amazing and great salsa drive thru is usually good pace the tamales are ok nothing to mind blowing but yes anything with papas is amazing! The inside had a great salsa and topping bar it's great when you eat inside too! Clean area

We got some tamales (two dozen) to take home if there was half a cup of meat in the two dozen I don't know where it was hiding. Not what it used to be.

The Menudo is delicious but the customer service needs work. We come in from out of town and stop by my favorite spot for good menudo. Well use to be. The cashier wasn't pleasant in greeting us at all. We ordered and got drinks sat down and I accidentally waste my drink. The cashier gave a rude look. I'm a customer accidents happen. I offered to clean my own mess but they all looked at me like I was a stupid ass for wasting the drinks. Typical Odessa never going again. Place sucks now.

Complete waste of money. The tamales here are small flat and tasteless. When you open the plastic bag they give you, you notice the tamales wrapped in paper completely covered and dripping grease. Just gross. Also I got an asado burrito. Terrible!! If this passes for great tamales in this town it says a lot about the people's tastes. Yuck

Saucedos is a Tamale Factory in Odessa. They also have a newer location in Midland. There is a modest seating area with brightly colored walls. I personally am a fan of their chili verde burritos, but they sell tamales too. However their tamales are tasteless, but just get the burritos and you're good. They also have home made lemonade and horchata. Overall Saucedos is a great place to grab a burrito.

The food was fantastic and full of authentic flavor that can be found no where else, and the tamales were fantastic!
