This Is A Family Owned /Ran Business. It Was Great To See The People Working Were A Husband, Wife & Son Trio. The Husband & Wife Attack The Grill Cooking Their Delicious Food & The Son Takes The Orders. Nothing Beats A Family Grinding Together! My Order: 1. Sope de Pollo Asado 2. Gordita de Pollo Asado 3. Taco de Tinga de Pollo Desmenuzado Sope Was The Best Out Of What I Orderd, In My Opinion. Flat Large Sope Served On A Regular Size Plate. The Chicken Was Nicely Cooked Full Of Flavor & Crispy. Sope Comes With Refried Beans On The Bottom, Shredded Lettuce, Cheese, Sour Cream & Choice Of Protein. The Gordita, Was Flavorfull & Stuffed With Your Choice Of Meat. I Opt Out For The Cheese But Enjoyed The Gordita Non The Less. The Taco de Tinga Was A Little Too Small For My Liking & I've Never Really Been A Fan Of Tinga In General. Would I Order Anything With Tinga, No. But, This Is My Preference & Everyone's Palet Is Different! Foods Still Very Good. I Got A Chance To Speak With The Owner, Antonio. We Had A Nice 5-10 minute Conversation & I Asked Him Why His Business Was Not On Yelp. He Told Me That He Works 7 Days A Week Hardly Ever Has Time & That He Wasn't To Sure How Yelp Worked Or How To Add His Business . He Only Uses FB & IG. I Kindly Asked Him If It Be OK For Me To Add His Business To Yelp. He Happily Said Yes & Thanked Me For Offering To. We Shook Hands & Welcomed Me Back Anytime! Very Humble Man! This Place Is Definitely Moe Approved.

Just recently found this street vendor on my feed. It sounds like he is there in this same spot in…read morean industrial neighborhood from 8am to about 1 pm or until he runs out. I've been by twice and my second visit around 8:30 am, I was surprised to see several people there already in the cold winter's air. All Mexican btw, so this vendor is well known by the locals/workers. That speaks volume. So this dude sets up multiple tables off a sidewalk with a canopy for shade. On those plastic tables are insulated coolers of different shapes. Big rectangular coolers store hot tamales of different fillings and these beverage coolers that have warm sweet mexican porridge things that I haven't tried yet but are very popular during cooler mornings. Champurrado is like a thickish hot chocolate but is thickened with corn masa and may have citrus and/or ground nuts for texture and complexity. He also has something more whitish and thick and he just ladels these steamy drinks into paper cups. Very popular amongst the Mexican customers, maybe the weather dictated what I witnessed. I've only tried their tamales, so that's what I'll be reviewing. They are good sized about a 8-10 biter. They are wrapped in corn husk then a deli paper around that. As he pulls them out of those insulated coolers, these things are steaming hot. I was surprised on how hot they were upon opening my bag, They were so hot that it was hard to handle them right away. He asked if wanted a paper plate but I declined as I usually eat my tamales in my hand. I should have accepted the plate as these were really hot and on the greasy side, especially the pork one. I usually have napkins in my car and had to use 2-3 napkins to eat one tamale. The tamales are $3.50 each and so far I've been getting 6 of them for $20, so a slight price break. He puts them in a plastic bag where they will stay warm for easily 30 minutes. I usually will eat 1-2 right away and whatever makes it home, I will wrap each one in plastic wrap before chilling in the fridge. That way when I go to heat one up, about a minute in the microwave, the plastic keeps things steamed. A super fast meal for me, that I love when on the go, or a quick work meal. Chicken Tamale (3.5*) Lots of chicken in the filling, cooked in a light green sauce. I usually like my fillings quite saucy as it adds flavor to the tamale. These seemed quite dry, and the chicken itself was all white meat, so seemed drier than I prefer. It is filling tho and their masa is very flavorful, it is seasoned and moist, which should be commended. This tamale does benefit from one of their salsas however. Chile and Cheese Tamale (4*) This one is solid but not as filling as the ones with meat. A nice strip of a green pepper, I'm thinking they use jalapeno as it has some heat. Usually I see a roasted strip of poblano pepper, so it has a deep pepper flavor but less heat. Here the pepper flavor is milder but there is more heat. There is a white cheese inside also but not really noticeable, there's no significant cheese pull, maybe the masa absorbs it. I do enjoy this tamale in the morning with a cup of coffee, a simple breakfast that I learned to love. Pork Tamale (4.5*) This hits for me. Big shreds of pork cooked in a deep red chile sauce that soaks the meat. Great flavor bomb between the earthy and spicy pork filling to the seasoned corn flavor of the moist masa exterior. The filling is very lean tho and just wished it would be juicier/more fatty bits. But for being as lean as it seemed, the outside of this tamale is surprisingly greasy. Like be careful eating and unwrapping this as grease will trail everywhere, on your fingers and hopefully your napkins. I had to be very careful eating one in my car for my initial taste. I had to eat it parked as I couldn't risk driving and eating something so messy. Lol Tamale dude also offers 2 types of salsas, a green and a red. The green is medium spicy and is deliciously tangy. The red salsa is very oily but somewhat emulsified. That one is very spicy and I can only take little dots of it. I've never had a salsa quite like that, definitely dried red/black chiles are used and is blended til smooth so no chunks. I'm curious as to what chiles are in there as it is stingingly piquant but with good complexity. At home I actually like to mix the 2 salsas, basically making the delicious green one slightly more spicy. Great score for me and so glad I found this. It is better than most tamales in my area and I love how warm they are upon receiving. I always eat one right away then I have several for future quick meals/snacks.

I will say this is the best Tamales ever. Has a good amount of meat and is not dry like others! The…read moresalsa was so good also!

Crazy popular place given the neighborhood it is in. Talk about a perfect concept in the perfect…read morespot, fits like a glove. In this tiny shopping strip in a very Hispanic hood in Hayward. I once came on a weekend early afternoon and had to turn around and look for an alternative...line out the friggin' door. Came on a weekday late in the lunch hours (2ish pm) and was able to get in the door. But within minutes of receiving my order, a line of over 10 peeps roll in and now the place seemed busy. This place has serious pull. All they do is carnitas, but in true authentic Mexican fashion. Carnitas is straight pork cooked in its own lard. It is seasoned simply (probably just salt) and cooked low and slow until the meat gets incredibly tender. Pretty much 'confit' method which is used in other cultures as well. But in true authentic fashion, in those pots of lard bubbling away, they are just not cooking pork meat. They are also cooking pork skin, one crispy (chicharone), one soft and chewy (cueritos), and also Buche which is the pork stomach lining, so it has a dense and meaty texture, but when confit'd is pretty darn good. You can get these carnitas in taco form, which seemed very popular during that lunch hour. Or you can get it as a combo plate with rice and beans. Or you can get any of those pork items by the pound, which I'm sure the majority of peeps do on weekends to take back home to feed a small army. Combo #3 ($16ish/4*) This is their smallest combo that can feed 1-2. Has about a pound of protein of choice, a small scoop of rice and refried beans, a decent size of salsa and 6 corn tortillas. I ate half there and brought the rest home for a light dinner later. Also comes with a fountain drink, so really nice value given how many meals I was able to get from it. Now when you order a combo, you pick what types of protein you want. You can get just the pork meat, which seems like mostly pork leg meat given the thick fibers in the chunks. It is quite tender and pulls with ease. The seasoning is perfect but is made even better with their thin and slightly spicy red salsa. I tried the 'mixta' option which was pork meat mixed with tender pork skin and even a bit of the buche. Definitely more exotic but very satisfying from my perspective. I think next time I'm going to order by the pound. Get a pound of meat, a half pound of the soft and gelatinous skin and a half pound of crispy chicharones. That way I can make my own tacos at home with all 3 components topped with their salsa and my own chopped onions and cilantro. Damn I'm drooling just thinking about it. Vamos cabron.
