Pepe's Tamales

Service was quick and friendly.... Great tamales!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!! Right off highway super accessible!

We stopped here passing through El Paso and thank goodness we did. We only tried the tamales verdes and they were absolutely delicious. I also got a barbacoa burrito and that too was amazing. Anytime we're passing through we will definitely go by Pepe's.

Great food just a little expensive for Tamales, but they're good. If they could add just a little bit more meat and a little bit more Masa, they'd be perfect.

Bomb af. Great tamale. Will be back definitely for all holidays. Easy to get to fast service.

I went to Pepe's Tamala's and received the best experience. The owner was kind and friendly. I purchased the pork and chicken tamales. The tamales were moist and full of meat. I have been purchasing tamales from Pepe's Tamales since 1991. I still receive the same excellent service. Pepe's is a hidden gym.

First review for 2024! I was craving Green Chicken Tamales and I just couldn't find them anywhere, but then I remembered this place! This place satisfied my craving and I got my dozen for like 19.99, it's the same price as the Tapatia. I like Pepe's because this is their specialty and not like other places where you have to order ahead of time or sell just during the holidays. These tamales were delicious and very spicy, with the perfect amount of chicken! They also had regular pork and also rajas con queso. I also noticed on the menu they have a tamales special in the morning like from 7 to 10 am and they also sell barbacoa. Service was fast and friendly and there was no waiting in line! Will have to try the menudo as well!

I walked up to the store, and ominously they had a sign that said, "Red tamales only". Fortunately for me, they had both red and the sweet tamales, but just no green ones. I was worried that the red ones were going to be spicy, but they weren't at all. Red tamale- The masa is light and moist, with some granularity to it. The red chile pork filling is generously stuffed in the middle. It is tender, with shreds of pork. It is seasoned well with tomato and chile. Sweet tamale- This did not have any filling. Rather, it is a lightly sweetened masa with small raisins and anise. My first bite tasted strongly of anise, but subsequent bites allowed the sweetness to shine through. I liked how the raisins were small so they didn't dominate each bite. I want to come back here to try the champurrado and the green tamales! Note this is a take out place, with no seating.
