" Not impressed at all. My experience wasn’t great, to say the least. The tamales were very greasy, and I actually couldn’t finish my meal. Moreover, the staff seemed overwhelmed and not attentive, which wasn't a pleasant experience. I wouldn’t recommend this place unless they make some improvements. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a very unpleasant experience at this restaurant. The food was way too greasy for my taste, and the tamales were dry and bland. Furthermore, the service took forever and the staff were not helpful at all. Such a letdown after all the hype. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone who appreciates authentic cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Easily some of the best tamales I’ve had! They are large, savory, and just melt in your mouth. The family vibe of the restaurant makes it an excellent choice for casual dining with friends. The staff is not only friendly but very attentive. I’ll surely come back again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love El Paso Hot Tamales! During my recent visit, I tried their famous tamales and they were delicious and authentic. I found the service to be friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. The seating was cozy, though it is a small place, the warmth of the staff makes up for it. I can't wait to return next week! " (*Curated Review*)

" Boy! I was super impressed with the quality of food here. The tamales were rich in flavor, not dry at all, and the portion size was generous enough to leave me satisfied. I really loved the environment; the people were friendly and helpful. A great spot to enjoy a casual meal with friends or family! " (*Curated Review*)

" Bringing my family to El Paso Hot Tamales is always a treat! Everyone loves the tamales and the homemade salsa is a must-try. The staff is also very friendly and accommodating, ensuring we always have a pleasant experience. A place worth visiting again and again. " (*Curated Review*)

" Not my favorite. I recently tried the enchiladas and expected something amazing but they barely had any filling. Too much masa for my taste. The place has a good vibe, but unfortunately, the food didn’t live up to its reputation during my visit. I might try again in the future! " (*Curated Review*)
