Just as the name implies, the owner wants to get back to making tortillas without any artificial ingredients. He is passionate about tortillas and wants to make healthier options including a flax version that he is hoping to perfect by August. He is set up to mass produce so I'm hoping restaurants consider his tortillas because they are made in house everyday with corn, water and lime. No artificial colors or stabilizers. I tried the red corn and blue corn and I'm a superfan. Colonial also carries traditional corn in different sizes and some flour options. If you want to save for later they can also vacuum seal the pack. Closed on Sunday, all other days 8 to 230. There is street parking right in front.

Here in town is different, there are very little tortillerías. This is definitely one AUTHENTIC tortillería. When you walk in there's tortillas everywhere, the smell is amazing, you can watch the people in the back packing them and there's a small variety of different cooked products. Chicharrones, chiles rellenos, cheese, sour cream, sodas, etc... In my visit I just stopped by for a kilo of regular house tortillas. Saw some fresh chicharrones and snagged a bag. The gentleman at the door was very friendly and talked to me about different varieties of tortillas they make. Also, told me how to heat their tortillas to perfection. Very cool very friendly. Amazing customer service. I will definitely be back, want some of the chiles rellenos, definitely one of my favorite Mexican dishes.

The waitress was great in offering samples for anything we wanted to try. The place is full of delicious smells which are all too familiar. Which is why families come here. They transport you back to the region they are taking inspiration from. In this instance, it's Torreón, the second largest city in the Mexican state of Coahuila. The flavors are flavorful and the varieties are bountiful. The table ordered everything from chicharron en salsa verde, to asado.

Masa: moist, not grainy, did not stick to foil, mild corn taste. Masa looks thick but is so tender, it melts in your mouth.

Slightly spicy from the jalapeno, very finely minced chicken and smooth creamy cheese. You are not eating this one for the chicken; the blending of the spicy cream cheese with the masa is the experience you will remember.

IN QUOTATIONS ARE COMMENTS FROM GRANNY'S TAMALES ON 12/12/2020 FROM THEIR FACEBOOK PAGE IN RESPONSE…read moreTO A REVIEW BY SOMEONE IN OUR HOUSEHOLD THAT DAY. "Unfortunately we do not deliver to peoples houses." Your Facebook page has a post dated 11/21/2020 @ 12:55 pm that states: "call for delivery of 5dz or more." "In this situation we called to deliver early and after 12 attempts we could not get through to anyone." You previously stated above that you 'do not deliver' and your very next line says you 'called to deliver' early. I have also posted a copy of the Messenger conversation where you confirmed delivery and the time frame of 2 pm to 3 pm. You said nothing about not delivering to homes and you called one and a half hours before the scheduled delivery! That's unreasonable and unacceptable. And if there was the possibility that you were going to deliver early, you should have let me know when I placed the order. Even on Saturday, you could have called, texted, or messaged WAY before you did. You waited until the very last minute and then bailed. When I noticed TWO calls and ONE voice mail, I returned the call. You immediately asked if you could call me right back. Twenty-six minutes later you called me back with so many excuses. Excuses are nothing more than a reason to fail. You stated you tried to call from Montgomery Rd. If that was true, you were actually on the way to my house. AND, you would have been to my house BEFORE you could even have made 12 calls. You were 3 (or less) minutes away! You didn't even attempt to come to my house! That's what delivery is - going to the customer's house! "We always put our customers first but in this case we could not wait." You did not put me first. Your 'granny' would have been ashamed of the way you handled this situation. You should be ashamed of yourself. "We had 5 dozen unpaid tamales and had to head back to corpus christi." Again, don't blame me. If you had followed through as promised, you could have sold out. "We have extremely long days beginning at 2am and head back as soon as well sell out." Don't put the burdens of the business on your customers. Your business - your responsibility. "Like I said I do not deliver to homes." Yes, you do! Your own website states you deliver, but does not specify delivery to businesses or homes! When you confirmed my order through Messenger you agreed to deliver to my home. "And when I call and leave multiple voice-mails and no response. Yes we will have to move onto the next customer." You left ONE voicemail! When all of the orders had been completed at the Walzem location, all you had to do is simply come to my house to deliver as promised. Even if it was early and I did not answer the phone, three adults were home and the front door was open. A simple honk would have gotten our attention. "I'm sorry you had a bad experience." No, I do not believe you are sorry. On the phone you were fast and loose with excuses, speaking very rapidly, and so loud that others in the room could hear you even though you were not on speakerphone. This situation was not my fault and you didn't even offer to make it right. "But this business is not a store front its mobile and it is different." Mobile = Delivery. If you're already mobile, delivery shouldn't be an issue. If you cannot abide by the rules you have, might I suggest your business put into place some very specific terms and conditions? "Hope you have a great day and a happy holidays. Thank you. " We will have a very Happy Holiday. We will get our tamales from a more reliable and credible business.
