" Visiting Magaly’s Tamales had been on my list for ages! Finally made it there and the food was just okay. The tamales would benefit from a bit more seasoning, but the freshness was definitely noticeable. The restaurant was clean and inviting. I appreciate the staff’s friendliness, even if the food wasn’t stellar this time around. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a great time at Magaly’s! Shared a dozen tamales with friends, and they were amazing! Generous portions for the price and they were so tasty! The atmosphere was full of life, and the staff worked hard to keep it flowing smoothly. I recommend their piña tamales – incredible! " (*Curated Review*)

" Best-tasting tamales around! I love that you can watch them being made fresh. Each tamale is packed with delicious fillings, making it a great value for what you're paying. I inherited my love for tamales from my grandmother, and at Magaly’s, it's the closest I've come to her cooking in a long time. Fantastic place! " (*Curated Review*)

" What an excellent spot! Magaly’s Tamales is a must-visit for anyone in the area. The tamales are phenomenal, with just the right amount of spice and texture. The staff is super helpful and the owner personally checked in on us, which was a nice touch. I left feeling satisfied and can't wait to invite friends to share this hidden gem with them. " (*Curated Review*)

" There are some great things about Magaly's, especially if you're a tamale lover like me. They have a decent selection and the price is reasonable for the portion sizes. Yet, I expected the food to pack a little more punch in terms of flavor. The ambiance was pleasant and clean, but I wouldn’t make it my primary dining spot. " (*Curated Review*)

" Magaly's Tamales has certainly made a name for itself! The tamales are top-notch, with a soft texture and generous fillings. It's a great place to bring the family for a casual meal, and the homemade salsa is just the perfect accompaniment to spice things up a notch. I can't wait to come back for lunch soon!
