The tortas are out of this world. The tortillas are made right in front of you and keep the perfectly seasoned meat, onions and cilantro nicely tucked in your street tacos. In addition, the folks who own and operate this place are just genuinely nice people and help complete the authentic experience. I may be biased because I eat here 3-4 times a week but that's because I'm finding myself having withdrawals if I go more than a few days without something from this amazing spot. Do yourself a favor and make the trip to Moxee, you won't be disappointed.

There's a reason this place is a destination, rather than a side quest. I live 92 miles and 2.5…read morehours away, and I make that pilgrimage a few times a year, much to my wife's consternation. "The freezer's full. Stop bringing home tamales." She's an infidel, a blasphemous Pharisee whose ignorance of the one true tamale is a point of ridicule. Tamale's are an art more than a science. My grandmother used to shut down her kitchen for two weeks each year to make tamales, which would fill a chest freezer for her husband to feast upon for lunch throughout the year. And when we went to visit, he'd share his hoard. To a point. They're both gone now, but I no longer have to wait for a family trip. Also, I can drive myself, so there's that. I make what I call The Tamale Run, a six hour drive that starts with a drive to lunch in Union Gap, a cooler filled with ice and a stack of frozen tamales, and ends with a saunter through Mt Rainier National Park. There are far worse ways to spend the day. And before you go and say, "Hey, you're spending half your day at a park," understand that part is the side quest, the icing on the cake if you will. A bonus I enjoy, but would gladly live without. So long as I get my tamales. Most tamales are dry. The masa tends to lose too much moisture when steamed. The result is typically a crumbly mess that lacks flavor and makes me wish I hadn't bothered. Los Hernandez tamales are moist, rich, and filled with consistent flavors that take me back to the trips of my youth, when my biggest concern was running out of AA batteries for my Walkman (I'm old). So do yourself a favor. Make the trek. Enjoy the journey. Savor the tamale. Ignore the other voices who tell you not to waste gas driving that far for something you could get closer, even if the nearby offerings are crap and unworthy. Tamales are more than just a food; they're a religion. Go, pray at the temple. Take your burnt offerings and some cash. Tell the priests and priestesses that you have come to kneel before Zod, or whatever your faith system commands of you.

I show up get my food, my fault for not checking prior to leaving but there was 2 slightly larger parties and 3 2-4 top tables. Looked like 1 server but then another girl came out so not 100% sure but being in the service and food industry i do understand mistakes happen. I live about 15 minutes away, so once i got home i try my quesdilla which im white yes but this is thr most unauthentic birria ive ever tasted. Absolutely no flavor what so ever and immediately make me feel sick especially when i noticed their being cilantro and onions in my food. When i called she said they are just beyond busy yet didnt offer anything else. I said id like atleast something to be done about it, she offers that i bring it back for them to take off or remake it. I said it honestly doesnt take good and its out of my way considering i just got home. And i said to atleast please take my tip off. Once i thought about it more i honestly just wanted it refunded since im not able to eat it and wouldnt want too. I try to call back to ask for atleast a refund on the quesdilla since the rice and beans were bad besides it being so small for $20. They blocked my number. Therefore i will be disputing the charges. Ive worked being an only server on a holiday, at restaurants & casinos. I would again not say it was anything that couldn't be handled if you are trained properly. Even if a customer has any complaints, if it was to go and beyond our fixing at that point since we didnt check it for what it was supposed to be we would give you a comp. So honestly would recommend anywhere else!
