What People Are Saying About Tamale House

In Short – Small and always crowded, this Mexican find attracts all kinds, including nearby university students and professionals in transit. As the sign posted states, the lack of air-conditioning may be uncomfortable but it keeps costs down. To-go is popular as there are only a couple of tables available outdoors. Heaping breakfast tacos are the biggest hit with over seventeen varieties. The menu includes other standard Mexican dishes, like crispy tacos, migas, huevos rancheros and chalupas. –

Fast, Cheap, Good!
by LaurenTheCop
Headline says it all. Take a tums with you...but the food is great, prices are even better. Downside is the seating but hey, it's Austin...Pop the hatch on the back of your SUV, or pull down the tailgate and you are good to go. Mmm, i want a carne guisada right now.
- Pros: Food and turn around time.
- Cons: seating

No tamales
by jentullis
They should change the name, because they don't have tamales anymore. They have tacos (breakfast and regular), enchiladas, dinner plates, etc., but no tamales.

Awesome
by masterhoa
With the prcies at the Tamale House, they're practically giving them away and the best part about it is the food is fantastic. For under 3 dollars, you can get some of the best breakfast tacos in an astounding array of combinations. Plus they have awesome homemade salsa (spicy) to boot. Everytime I've been there's been a line to the door, but the service is fast and I'm usally out with tacos in hand in about 5 minutes. You won't be disapointed, and if your are then it can be assumed that you have no breeding or culture.

Although there is a parking lot, it fits only a few cars. Don't let that discourage you though, most just pick up to-go orders.
