Alicia's Tamales

Dropping Alicia's down a peg after our recent visit. Grabbed some tamales and a carne asada taco to go. Noticed more masa than usual, and less peppers, cheese, and pork in the tamales. The Carne Asada taco however was still rock solid. I'm still a fan!

Good tamales, not excellent. For a place that has "tamales" in the name I would expect better. More masa than meat. However at $0.75 each I am not complaining. I ate six.

My band came through to this place on tour and we loved it. 3 of us are NYers, one is from Toronto, and one from Greece, and we each enjoyed what we had. 2 of us had tamales, which is the thing to get--I don't usually LOVE tamales, but I LOVED these!  The tacos were delicious too!  And it's so inexpensive!  Definitely check out this joint if you are ever in the area.
