I picked up some pork tamales at the garden show in McKinney over the weekend I have to say these are probably the best tamales I have had in a long time the ratio of meat and masa was perfect the flavor was great will definitely order more!!

Bought some tamales at Grapefest in September. I put then in the freezer and forgot about them. Just heated them up and followed directions on the package. Holy moly the black bean vegan tamales are delicious! Thank you!

We absolutely LOVE Along Came Tamales Tamales! Such a great find in a small town and the owners are super sweet! Good selection of Tamales (sweet and savory) and even a Vegan/Vegetarian option for those that need it! The location is super convenient to downtown. Highly recommend!

I will be quick and simple.The food was amazing and tasted great. Tried the pork and chicken tamales and was pleasantly surprised to be reminded of my mother's tamales back home.Really great tasting. Can't recommend enough to try this place out.

Delicious! We are new to the area and so glad we found this place. Tamales were fresh and tasted great. We were early and some menu items weren't ready so we'll have to try again. Owner was friendly and we had a great visit.

On one hand I hate to do this, my first yelp review, but I feel that this is the purpose of this app. At the price I paid for two packages of tamales I feel obliged to put in a comment. I chose to steam my tamales so they wouldn't dry out as sometimes in the microwave things cook unevenly. So they reheated well in about 20 minutes in a steamer. Upon unwrapping them I found the chicken ones pretty bland. A friend of mine told me she thought they had way too much MASA and not enough filling. They have a little bit of flavor but they're pretty crumbly on the inside and not much flavor. But the spinach ones, spinach and feta, were very disappointing. I suppose it was the feta cheese but the consistency was that of solid masa. Masa flavored with cumin. They had a slight green tinge which I suppose was some tiny amount of chopped up spinach but there was no flavor beyond cumin. Price break down is two dollars a piece for these tamales. I would expect a whole lot more.

Such a nice hidden gem In a small town. Owner is so sweet and her tamales are delicious! She’s very polite and helpful.. I’ve been here a few times and I’m never disappointed!

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICEThe owner was very rude and inconsiderate will not be eating at her restaurant ever! The tamales are suppose to be “fresh” they tasted days old. Not happy with the place or the people running it. Don’t ever waste your money or time going there.
