I LOVE to travel and because of this I have been fortunate to visit many great places. My main love…read moreof travel is for two reasons: A) for the scenery/architecture and B) for the culture/food. In my travels I've had the privilege of visiting Guatemala twice. I was blessed to have home-cooked meals by locals all throughout the city. Prior to visiting Guatemala I had no idea there were so many variations of Latin foods between Central-American cultures and it was there I had an eye-opening experience with tamales. Guatemalans make their tamales a lot different than the Mexican style tamales I was familiar with eating most of my life. Their tamales were a lot fatter and far moister than Mexican tamales and the masa is softer. I instantly fell in love with the difference, especially after having eaten many overcooked & hard Mexican tamales in my lifetime. So you can't imagine how delighted I was to discover the Salvadoran tamales here @ Star Bakery are similar to Guatemalan tamales. [ THE FOOD ] After my first taste I returned 3 days in a row because I just couldn't get enough of the amazing flavor! Moist, fluffy, flavorful masa wrapped around juicy & oh so tender chicken. The ladies here truly have magic in their fingers, because it's not just the softness of the masa. I hear chicken bouillon is traditional in seasoning the cornmeal used to make the masa, which would explain why it had such a satisfying aftertaste. I also enjoy their Carne Guisada and delicious Fresas con Crema, but was not a fan of the Baleadas. Something about it tasted sour, almost spoiled. My favorite combination is an order of their Corn Tamales paired with the Grilled Steak next door @ Villino's. I ate them together as if they were steak tamales. The two flavors combined are enough to inspire an epic happy dance! On my latest visit I tried the Pupusas after two other customers in line convinced me I needed this in my life. They both recommended the Chicharron con Queso but I was more interested in the Cameron con Queso, so I ordered one of each. Both were great, but that dang Chicharron was AHHHH-mazing and exploded with flavor! They were absolutely right! * Elote Tamales (5 stars) * Pollo Tamales (5 stars) * Carne Guisada (4.5 stars) * Fresas con Crema (5 stars) * Baleadas (1 star) I think I just got a bad one! * Cameron con Queso (4.5 stars) * Chicharron con Queso (5 stars) [ FINAL THOUGHT ] Take a drive to Plaza Las Americas, casually meander to the food court in the rear and treat yourself to some of the best chicken tamales north of Central America. But don't be in too much of a rush because they take a little time to prepare. If you've ever traveled South of Mexico and sampled these amazing tamales, I think you will agree with me on their authenticity and deliciousness. BUEN PROVECHO! 2022 / 82

We were just walking around the food court and saw all the desserts that Star Bakery offered. The tres leches look deliciouis!! Then we saw they had tamales and pupusas!! Yes!!

I also ordered a frozen Mango Juice The shredded beef for the Arepa was so flavorful and tasty. The right amount of cheese and a warm and fresh tasting Arepa . I wish they offered the seasoned sauce that they the beef is made in to go or I should have asked ask if they can add more of the sauce to soak the meet just a little bit more because the beef was a bit dry to my liking at the start but still very very yummy & flavorful . Next time I will prob order a green sauce or something . The mango juice was perfect is not too sweet and very good .

They do not have their Carbs listed for what that filling is. I just know it doesn't knock me out of ketosis. They should really put up a sign out front that says our chicken is low-carb, friendly or something to the effect. I really appreciate this place. The friendly staff the comfortable booths. It's a bustling place. I know the tortillas are amazing for the burrito shell they are very large about 11 inches. I ate a little bit of the rice and beans a very small portion just to get a taste and they are also fabulous, I can't wait to when I get to the weight. I want going back in there and enjoying the rice and beans and the tortilla shell. I just wanna bring across that the chicken is just absolutely fabulous and I am including a picture here of what it looks like if you order it that way without the rice and beans. When I ordered it without the rice and beans, the server gladly took my order but sort of gave me a puzzle look like why wouldn't you want the rice and beans? Anyway, I can't wait to go back there again and again.

My partner and I stopped by El Taco Jalisco on 04/03/2026 around 12 PM for lunch, and even though…read moreit was a bit busy, we were pleasantly surprised that we were seated immediately--always a great start! I ordered the lunch special with two tacos (pastor & chicken) and swapped the beans for rice. It was my first time trying pastor, and wow--I was genuinely impressed. The meat was tender, juicy, and packed with a smoky, slightly sweet, and savory flavor that really stood out. Definitely a 5/5 for the pastor taco. The chicken taco was decent--well-seasoned, mildly juicy, and satisfying, but not quite as bold or memorable. I'd give that one a 4/5. One thing I really appreciated: the meat didn't have that dry, overcooked texture you sometimes get at other taco spots. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. My partner ordered the carne asada plate (charbroiled fajita steak with pico de gallo, avocado, rice, and tortillas, with beans swapped for extra rice) $15.99. He said the steak was nicely charred, tender, and full of rich, savory flavor with just the right amount of seasoning. The plate was filling and well-balanced, and he gave it a solid 4/5. Overall, a great lunch spot with fresh ingredients, quick seating, and flavorful food. We'll definitely be back!
