This is my go to place for tamales! There is not a single place in Carson that I've found as good as the lady tamales and you can't beat their prices and amazing service! read more

One of the nicest people I've met in customer service. That alone deserves 5 stars but not only that the food was great and very accommodating with my last minute order. Hope more people stop in and give it a try. read more

After leaving the bank the other day I was craving beans and cheesy enchiladas and stumbled across this quaint restaurant off of highway 50 in Dayton. I spent the second half of my lunch here.I learned this was a second location to their Carson store. I was greeted immediately upon arrival. I browsed their menu and decided on cheese enchiladas. I have a family recipe for the best red sauce, but when I don't feel like destroying my clean kitchen and getting Chile seeds all over my counter tops; I'll order cheese enchiladas in red sauce at our local Mexican restaurants. It did hit the spot, but I wasn't a fan of the beans. The rice was good and fluffy. Overall the red sauce and rice had a really good flavor. The gentleman in the front of the house made this visit a great one. I'm sure I'll see you again soon as I plan to be working nearby for awhile. Thanks for the hospitality! read more

So good we drive from Spanish Springs! Their tamales are just like grandma's homemade ones. Perfect amount of meat and the best blend of seasonings and masa. Comfortable and clean with an absolutely energetic staff at the counter. Always get an ice cold Jarrito to accompany your meal! I'll pick up an extra 10, 20 or 30 tamales for the crowd when we're hosting events on the weekend! read more

Wow what can I say about this place? I've passed it many times and kept saying to myself. I need to try this place. So a couple of days ago I finally did. Honestly the building doesn't look like much. In fact it looks like an old KFC restaurant. But I think it was built for its current purpose. But you have to go inside and look at that menu. Which is what I did. It's called the Lady Tamales. But they offer more than just tamales. The menu is quite extensive. With standard favorites like pozole and menudo. I ordered the 3 tamales with rice and beans. Man what amazing taste. The masa was perfect as well as the ratio of masa and filling. The rice and beans also were very good. The prices are very reasonable. Especially these days. I can't wait to go back and try the other items on the menu. I am new to the area so I'm sure this is a staple in the Dayton area. If you haven't tried this place. You need to because it is amazing. read more

We have driven past this place so many times thinking we'd try the food. Finally stopped in and ordered The Lady Tamale Special (12 tamales) with 6 chicken/6 pork- (intended on getting beef and pork but beef wasn't an option then). The chicken tamales were a tad dry and we preferred the pork, but oh Lord... and the gentleman's friendly demeanor and quick and courteous service was a flashback to "how things used to be" and was refreshing and appreciated. We are definitely going back. read more

The lady Tamales - Snapshot of their online menu - Mexican Near Me - Dayton, Nevada

Consisntely 5 starts for me. The service is beyond friendly, warm and welcoming. You feel like you are a long regular customer even if you only visit few times a year like myself. The restaurant is always clean and looking nice and fresh. Vet welcoming to come in, sit down and enjoy one of their meals. Lately, I have been ordering a different meal while I wait for my orders of tamales to get packaged, that is really an excuse because the tamales get packaged before I can say "extra salsa" read more

Passed this place a few times when we go to Carson City and was craving tamales so figured to give it a try. It's a cute little place and the owner Roger is a really nice guy. We ordered to- go a dozen tamales for $10 (half chicken and half pork) and had some rice pudding while we waited. The tamales...DELICIOUS! And they came with salsa which is just the right touch. Spicy enough for a kick but not too spicy where it's unbearable. Definitely a must-stop for the future. read more

I hate saying this but worst Mexican food! Burritos were low meat quality and tasted more like teriyaki seasoning than Mexican seasoning. The tamales were low quality meat and mostly masa! read more

A friend brought home beef and pork tamales, they were good, but I couldn't tell which one was the beef and which one was the pork. I didn't really like that. There good size for the price you pay. read more
