Tamales Luisa

The best tamales I had in Queens so far. Wish there was less masa and more filling (rajas y carne) tho. Would definitely be up to par with the ones I used to greatly enjoy in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. Great price too. No son aprovechados Will definitely take the 20-30 min drive unless I find good tamales closer to me

Excellent and convenient tamales and atoles that has become my regular stop off place just outside the woodside lirr/7 station. Everything I have had here so far is good, and the green sauce tamales are among the best I have had so far in the city. The proprietor Luisa will let you know that the green tamales are more spicy and her mole tamales are not spicy. As with most tamale places best to come in the morning, the later you are there the more likely she is to be sold out of some selections. All tamales at time of my visit are the corn husk variety (no oaxacan tamales).

I don't eat that

Delicious!

I love the tamales! I don’t think I could live in this neighborhood without her tamales anymore. Wheelchair accessibility: The 7 train elevator is in front of her set up

For $2 tamales, they are great size and taste. I tried the green salsa with chicken and rajas. Also the arroz con leche was perfectly made.
