17 years ago on our road trip and not much around, we happened upon La Nortena Tamale Factory in…read morethe blink of an eye and you've passed it town of Pecos Texas. Fast forward to Instagram, Yelp, social influencers and now this tamale factory and city are even more well known and loved. So with another road trip from Las Vegas to San Antonio we had to stop here and get some tamales. I have a few tips for you. They are closed on Mondays and if I'm not mistaken most days they are closed by 2 or 3 PM. Their website to pre-order is great. I ordered the night before to make sure my tamales were available. We were staying in Carlsbad, New Mexico and the drive time is an hour and 30 minutes. I totally forgot about the time change switching states. I called La Nortena as I started my drive and requested they changed my pick up time for an hour later than I had originally requested. They were so accommodating and helpful. I love that they open super early because we were on the road and there by 10am Texas time. We decided to walk in to pick up our order. They have an order line and a pick up line but there was only one girl manning the order line. It went pretty quick and they got our stuff really fast. They do not offer any bathrooms as this is just a pick up and go so if you're traveling you'll have to find somewhere else. The tamales were as delicious as I remembered them. The masa isn't super thin and isn't super thick. This isn't your regular masa. You can literally see the love that went into them making this masa special. I pre-ordered the mix dozen which comes with half green and half red. If you prefer more or less or another type of tamale they offer (others aren't always available) then just place the request in the comments box of your order. Both red and green are a bit spicy, moist and have awesome flavor. This was our breakfast and they were piping hot. I could barely hold them to hand them to my son in the backseat. I love that they were so hot. Delicious and my son said that they were the best tamales he had ever eaten. Pecos Texas is not that blink and you pass it kind of town anymore. It's rather cute with artistically painted Texas boots all throughout the city. I love social media because it really shows you all the things that you can find in the city from it having the world's first rodeo to history with Pecos Bill, this is definitely a stop to make and enjoy the city as well as the incredible tamales.

We had it through DoorDash so to us the service was good because our food was hot not cold and very fresh and and very tender the ambience it was totally full. We was not wanting for more but we wanted more of the country fried steak if we come back to Pecos, that will be one place that we will stop and eat again because the country fried steak was amazing where we were so hungry and exhausted. I did not get no pictures but the food is you have to try it?

I placed a TOGO order to feed an oilfield location I was working on and they added an outrageous $58 tip just for preparing our plates.

Birria tacos and Mexican Coke. Just do it…read more The birria tacos come 4 to an order and they are thick with layers of queso cheese melted in between then deep fried. Onion, cilantro, limes and hot sauce come on the side as does a cup of consommé for dipping. Round that out with a glass bottle of Mexican Coke and you've just tasted heaven one cheesy layer at a time. We enjoyed our tacos and Coke's outside. They have several tables and chairs under a large metal awning. As some of the other reviews mentioned the prices are a little high but the quality and quantity of food that you get makes it worth every penny. Now go and get you some!

Pretty quick and very polite. About 5 years back I worked in a nearby gas plant. I have now returned to work in drilling. I would come hear and order Chicken Enchiladas Verdes and it was really good. It was hot though, but I really liked hot food. I am Cajun, so to give you an idea, it was hotter than Cajun food and almost as hot as Thai medium heat. Well, first impressions. I am pretty sure it didn't have yellow cheese on it last time. First bite, wow! Not as hot as it used to be, but still has a nice spice, which is good. I was a little concerns I wouldn't be able to handle it. The sauce now has a smoother creaminess to it and the chicken is moist and tender. The rice and refried beans were good as well. Well, that was delicious. If you haven't figured out, as I was eating, I was reviewing and typing. It's a winner. Can't tell you about the rest of the menu yet, but first visit back and the Chicken Enchiladas Verdes is a keeper, as my wife would say when I cook something she enjoys and wants me to cook again. As for the ambiance, this is a small mom and pop restaurant. Lots of laughs and smiles and friendly staff. One last thing, it was $14.05 with a tea, not including the tip of course.
