    Two tacos, pork tamale, rice and beans
    Timmy W.

    We stopped off at this place because our car was charging and needed some time to kill. The restaurant is small, clean, and the service is great. Unfortunately the food was mediocre at best. When I go to a restaurant I want to be wowed, but this place fell short of my expectations. The rice was undercooked and crunchy; the beef tacos were dry and lacked flavor; the flour tortilla seemed like it came out of a package, and the corn tortilla needed to be warmed up longer. There were no customary brown or dark marks on the tortilla. The pork tamale was good when combined with their spicy salsa. My favorite dish were the refried beans. They were smooth, creamy, and had lots of flavor. Overall, I would give this place 2.5 stars, but since Yelp doesn't allow half stars, I am going to roundup being the math teacher that I am.

    WOWZA. Excellent tamales, excellent customer service and some of the best breakfast tacos I've ever had in my life. They open at 6 AM which is perfect for plant workers and we went and grabbed four each of the sausage and egg and the sausage and bacon with the red and green sauce. The sauces could stand to be a tiny bit spicier (just a personal preference) but these things were HUMONGOUS! The eggs were fluffy, the bacon was crispy and they added shredded cheese when we asked. They paired so perfectly with the sauces. It was like the breakfast tacos we had from food trucks down in Laredo. We also ordered a 1/2 dozen each of pork and chicken tamales and wow. They were SO moist and delicious! They made for a wonderful lunch for my husband the next day and after sharing some with his co-workers, they stopped by and grabbed some too. They've got drinks and beers chillin' in the fridge and even serve barbacoa tacos on the weekends. This place is directly next to the Holiday Inn on Walden road and I'm SO glad it is. We will be back - all the freaking time!

    Apparently, it's a tamale

    I don't like my tamales undercooked or shaped like a flauta. So I'm finding it difficult to believe that the reviews left before my review were honest. Little to no meat in the red tamales and little to no sauce in the green tamales. half a dozen in this place should not be worth $9.

    Really great grab and go nachos, the tamales are amazing but just a little small for a big hungry guy like me .

    Tried the cheese & jalapeño tamal and the pork. Cheese&jalapeño tamal was salty and they had slivers of jalapeño seen on my pics. Pork tamal seasoned better, not salty. The green salsa tasted a little sweet, we preferred the red one, also not spicy but with a heavy note of garlic flavor on both salsas. Reasonably priced. Flour tacos are huge! Tried the chorizo and egg, needed a little salt but can be added on your own to you're liking. Not my cup of tea, 3 stars because they were made fresh !

    Delicious, beautifully made tamales. Great flavor; perfect as appetizers or part of main courses - chili, queso, salsa!

    I've only had the breakfast tacos. And they are great. Red sauce has a pretty spicy kick and tastes great!

Coming from Houston, my expectations were kind of high, but Tacos La Bamba greatly exceeded expectations! 10/10 would recommend! I don't come to Beaumont often so I knew I wanted to support a local spot for lunch. Tacos were on my mind so this was an easy choice based on other's reviews. I ended up trying all 5 of their meats on tacos. They had beef asada, pork carnitas, al pastor, barbacoa, and chicken. Corn tortillas are a must for me and cilantro/onions are a necessity. What was surprising was also their red/green salsas. Both made in house, the green was a little spicy and fresh, while the red was smoky and complex. Then to wash it all down, I had their refreshing horchata as well. Tacos La Bamba seems like a Beaumont staple. They had a good lunch crowd with quick service. The interior is very colorful with a beautifully painted "Dia de los Muertos" animal theme. I will 100% come back whenever I'm in Beaumont again, cheers! PS. They have a little outdoor patio area too if the weather is nice.
