A bit outdated interior, but the drive-thru and extensive menu make up for it! Tried two tamales de pollo con salsa roja (moderately to very spicy) and a mango smoothie, which was made with delicious fresh taste. It took longer than expected, but the ice cream flavors looked enticing! Especially the Ferrero roche & the fruit ones. read more

The man working the counter was so friendly and kind. This location looks to be a tad smaller than their other location. I came here for the fresas con crema and it was SO good. The horchata was tasty as well. My friend got the pork & chicken tamales and they tasted amazing! We both got full very quickly here. I love knowing there's a drive through in case I need a quick spot for food. Our food came out in just about 5 minutes. read more

Raspados Alpha Tamales - Fruit cocktail - Desserts Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

This is a very interesting place to say the least. Tamales and Mexican ice cream...count me in. The place has a drive thru window for you to place and pick up your order with out getting out of the comfort of your vehicle. They have a bunch of available parking spots out front and it is a stand alone shop that is part of, but in front of a strip mall. It is all by its lonesome The place has a large dining area with a few tables and chairs for you to seat and eat. It was very clean. There is also a television in the dining area as well. Their prices are very reasonable and their menu is huge, packed with mostly ice cream/fruit drinks and treats. They have a limited selection of tamales. I only had 3 to choose from. I think it was a pork, a chicken in red sauce and chicken in green sauce. I went with the pork and chicken in red sauce. Their tamales were good. Not the best that I have had, but definitely not the worst. They were hot and fresh though. Now the ice cream....man, oh, man. Off the charts. The freezer is full of delicious frozenness. They have traditional and exotic flavors. They also have frozen fruit based treats too. I had to get a scoop of the rum raisin. Their ice cream is off the charts good. It was very fresh, just the right consistency and tasted homemade. And the scoop was large. It was a real scoop. It overflowed out of the cup. I could not leave the there with out trying one of their bionicos. It was worth the extra calories. It had fresh fruit and was delicious. The staff here is very friendly. Some of them do not understand English very well, but we made it work. This is a decent place to get something to eat. Their tamales are good, but their ice cream and frozen/fruit based treats are to die for. I highly recommend checking this place out. read more

1000% YES!!! SO SO SO SO SO GOOD!!! We had a mangonada, freshly squeezed OJ, beets and OJ freshly made juice, and tamales. The tamales were so amazing, they tasted like my grandma's. It made me call her. It's a pretty chill place to go to you can tell they tried to make it a bit more nicer. I will say the only downside to it all is that you have to wait 15-30 minutes as it is always busy. I 100% recommend! read more

This place is also known as Alpha Never and Tamales on maps. It is okay, they have a lot of your Mexican street snacks and ice cream and mangonadas. I was craving elotes so my friend suggested going here to get it, I was not impressed, it was very meh. nothing exciting, there was a lot more mayo and cheese than the actual corn. I also tried their cheese ice cream, which was okay too. I was excited because I have not seen homemade cheese ice cream in a while, usually just the prepackage one from an international store. I would definitely suggest trying it, because different people have different preference on taste, but I will probably not come back unless I am really craving elotes and this place is the only place nearby for it. I can say that their menu is extensive though. Food 5/10 Service 7/10 Atmosphere 6/10 read more

I wanted to try a mangonado so bad and I finally got one! It was so good! We also got strawberry shaved ice, elote and tamales. The tamales were fantastic as well. The shaved ice had a detergent taste in the ice. I'm guessing it was a one time thing where maybe they cleaned it and it still had some detergent in it and the elote was ok. Staff was nice and we'll definitely be back! read more

This place is extremely interesting! Great service and friendly! This was my first time to try Mangonadas. It was amazing, you can test sweet, sour, and spicy at the same time. They have a variety of ice creams and side dishes. I definitely will be back here to try the other things. read more

Delicious tamales and frozen treats! Shake, ice cream, smoothies - you name it. Super awesome customer service and prices. Area is a tad sketchy but totally worth the food. So so good. Plus they have a drive thru, so you don't have to leave your car. 10/10 recommend read more

I work near Alpha and I can't help myself but stop here once a week and get the tamales. They are unbelievably good and never disappoint. they have chicken, pork, and cheese and pepper tamales. Now you would think to yourself "there's no way these are all good" I can tell you they are all fantastic. They come out so hot you could almost burn yourself. I've never been to a place w such smooth and easy service that goes above and beyond to make sure they meet your needs. The ambiance of the place is very refreshing. You walk in and the place is very clean and the dining area is very nice. Would 100% recommended it to anyone looking for real authentic tamales. Also the elote is fantastic as well. Everything is also priced very reasonably. I would attach photos but everytime I get food from here it is demolished and well you know where I'm going. This is also local so it's great to support. I also forget to mention their 40 plus homemade ice cream flavors that are to die for. They also have homemade popsicles, fresh squeezed juice and much much more. This place is class and it doesn't get any better than Alpha! read more

Sign says Neveria y Tamales ALPHA. We stopped because we were craving ice cream and the pictures on the outside of the building caught our eye. Kids got ice cream & my husband got the strawberries & cream (it was packed with fresh strawberries) - they all loved their choices. I got the pico de gallo which was watermelon, mango, pineapple, jicama, and cucumbers in a tajin sauce - very fresh and tasty. Also, I got the chicken tamale with green sauce and Lordy it was gooooood. I'm half writing this review just so I don't forget how good it was! read more

Los tamales rojos de hoja de plátano son mis favoritos, muy buenos. Si van en fin de semana lleguen temprano porque se acaban!

I always see this place and drive on by but one day I was in the mood for some tamales and Im glad I stopped because I wasn't disappointed. They have ice cream smoothies nachos.. etc. i have the spice chicken tamales and they were very good. The ice cream bars are the best Ive ever ever had. Ive started stopping in once in a while for a snack. read more

I felt so bad coming to them 5 minutes from closing, as I was very new to the town. They were so polite and understanding!! Tasty milkshakes, great staff, clean. I recommend to anyone. Although I'd recommend showing up during their business hours and not like me! Because that's just rude. read more

This place under values its customers.and under delvers in service. After watching me stand there and talking to each other for 10 minutes, they took my order. After finally taking my order they stood around for 5 more minutes before making my fruit salad in 30 seconds. Upon eating my fruit salad that was more than half banans it was just below ok. COMPLETE FAILURE!! WON'T RETURN!! read more

Just in Indy for a visit and decided to stop somewhere local to eat. Everything was delicious, the Elote especially. Will have to make this a stop every trip now. read more

After looking all over town for some GOOD elotè(Mexican street corn), I found this place in Eagledale Plaza.Their menu is quite interesting, & caters to just about anyone's taste buds.They don't really sell Mexican cuisine- moreso sweets, & things to hold you over until dinner.The red tamales are pretty yummy, & of course the elotè!I also had a Horchata drink, which puts you in the mind of a cinnamon milk drink.They have a private parking lot, & indoor seating.I'm sold! read more

The main girl working there is always so annoyed, everytime I go she's there. Can't even buy anything without her ruining the mood.

I usually order the chicken with green sauce (spicy) tamales and jalapeño and cheese tamales. They are inexpensive and delicious. I just tried their Pina colada homemade ice cream today and it was so good! Can't wait to try the other varieties. read more

Alpha Neveria Y Tamales is the name my family calls this tamale/ice cream/snack shop. They make tamales in corn husks and tamales in plantain leaves; our favorite is the plantain type, but they're both really good. Sometimes they sell out. Of course we get desserts too: ice cream, slushies, paletas, mangonadas. When I'm craving a combination of sweet, spicy, and fresh fruit, this is where I go. Service has never been rude, but sometimes when they're really busy, they don't have time for lots of questions and lingering. Best to figure out what you want, then go order. If something seems interesting, we just try it to see if we like it. Before COVID, the place would get packed on summer evenings - more Spanish than English, lots of families, LOTS of kids. read more

The food saves this place from the horrible service provided by staff. Attitude from the register woman when asked why flavors were no longer being offered. No answer as to when they would be bringing back menu items that have literally just been crossed off of the menu. Menu hasn't been updated since last summer. Popular items like the Mango with chile and lime just have a big "X" through them. While they do have a variety of items they are never stocked up for the items. Only come back here rarely, and only for the food. read more

Summertime spot for sure. Not your basic raspados (slushies) these are real fruit raspados . They have other items on there (it's like a snack place ) I believe I have tried everything on their menu but I always go back for the Mangoneadas and the Lime Ice Cream (lime gelato) read more

My experience here was helped by my friends who have enjoyed the food and beverage here. I really wanted tamales, but they were out and you can't just whip one up. You'll want to get there early as later in the evening they were low on menu items. I had the Chamango de piña and it was quite good. Some may not like the sweet and spicy mix. read more

Delicious tamales. A little sad they didn't have mole but, definitely authentic. Wide variety of sweets... they even have corn flavored ice cream and queso ice cream! The staff were very polite. I will definitely be returning the next time I have a craving for tamales read more

Excellent tamales and memorable customer service. This will be my go to spot in Indianapolis for tamales!

They messed up on my order and I was informed by the cashier that there wasn't anything she could do for me. When I asked if I could speak to a manager, I was told there wasn't one on duty. She also refused to give a name of someone to assist any further. I also asked if they had a "No Refund" sign posted and she stated that they didnt, but her manager told her they don't do refunds. They wouldn't even compensate me with something of equal value. Not happy just giving my money and not receiving what I ordered, but even more upset that I was told I had to deal with it. I will be following up on this matter. read more

I came after work for something refreshing but instead left upset. I asked for a milkshake and the chick with the glasses gonna tell me that they don't have milkshakes, and that they have ice cream if I wanted ice cream. She made me look at the menu to make sure what I wanted to order. I saw she had a liquado and she got all defensive about how a liquado and a milkshake are 100% different . I was not trying to fight with her but that's really rude read more
