When you live in the Pacific Northwest, but you grew up in Arizona, you face a harsh reality: good,…read moreauthentic Mexican food can be hard to find. Which makes Tammy's a pleasant surprise indeed. You can tell from the outside, just driving by - Tammy's isn't trying too hard to get your attention. Its simple storefront reminded me immediately of the many family-owned Mexican restaurants in Phoenix, and walking through the door only confirmed it: Tammy's is the real deal. The decor is warm and comfortable, the staff speaks mostly Spanish and most of the customers are Hispanic too. The dishes on the menu are more than the cheese-and-beans remixes most PNW Mexican restaurants offer - this is the kind of food someone's abuela might cook for you on a warm day in Mesa. And while the portions are healthy, you'll want to eat every bite and savor all the flavor. I tried the Milanesa de Res and cleaned my plate - the flour tortillas that came with it were obviously homemade and the perfect accompaniment. There are a lot of Mexican restaurants in Yakima, but take my advice: if you're looking for the real deal, Tammy's is the place to go.

It appears to still be a go-to for many locals, but if you want more authentic food and good margaritas there are many better choices. The margaritas are especially disappointing because they use a mixture that can be found in any grocery store. Don't bother. The food is good but it's what I consider Americanized. The restaurant itself is spacious and is suited well for large gatherings. The service is consistently good and friendly with some longtime staff. With so many options out there El Porton is sufficient for a stand in, but if you want margaritas and food made from fresh ingredients by a seasoned chef who knows authenticity there are many better options for a nice dining experience.
