"A Mexico City tamalería selling both savory and sweet tamales, offering traditional masa parcels filled with pork, chicken, beef or vegetables and steamed in banana leaves or corn husks, alongside regional specialties and sweet versions like pineapple‑filled pink tamales." - Meagan Drillinger
"The best tamales in Mexico City sell out quickly from this demure storefront on a quiet street in the Roma neighborhood. While tamales are a common street food, this walk-up shop (with sidewalk tables for those who want to eat on-site) turns the everyday breakfast food into the extraordinary. While there is no way to go wrong—they are all great—it’s worth trying some of the specials: like pork loin with olives or beans with cheese and grasshoppers. This is a family-run operation, and they are friendly and welcoming, even as they move efficiently through the line." - Naomi Tomky, Scarlett Lindeman
