Get your authentic, hand-wrapped holiday tamales from The Tamale Joint
Deck the halls and fill your plate, it's tamale time at the tamale joint, our favorite spot for Christmas tamales. And from the pork, chicken and jalapeno and cheese options, there's nothing like freshly made tamales to make your season merry and bright. All of their tamales are gluten free, and they pride themselves on having a 50/50 ratio: 50% filling, 50% masa, whereas competitors are 60/40. Pre-order your Christmas tamales early because they will sell out! Watch as Lauren Kelly chats with Owner/Manager Jorge Penaloza, for all the info on how to get your holiday orders in time for Christmas.
