Handmade tortillas, shrimp fajitas and the rice, beans and fixings place.
Julie C.

Wow. This was a totally random find, my friends and I meet every once in a while, usually for tacos, and one of them sugessted this spot. Welp, it was very delish and spotless. I'd definitely return, mostly because everything I ate was very tasty, and somehow because we didn't order any pupusas...which seems like an absolute shame. Other people were slurping up some delicious looking bowls of steaming soups, and I think those definitely should have been sampled as well. But we had a giant plate full of perfectly fried plantains and crema....instantly devoured. I could eat those every single day. Being a taco addict, I couldn't resist flipping to the Mexican side of the menu and ordering a couple. Okay. The handmade tortillas? So delicious. The pastor was more of a guisado, and so was the lengua to be honest, but both were well seasoned and tasty. This place is definitely not a taqueria, so order accordingly. We also had an order of baleadas...just because the idea of them sounded so good....soft flour tortilla, beans, crema, eggs, and cheese. Savory and delicious; super cozy comfort food. My other friend had an order of shrimp fajitas (which smelled amazing, looked fabulous and were apparently, perfectly seasoned and cooked). They came with rice and beans, lettuce and tomato. She also got Salvadoran tamales, but to go. I have to get a report on those...we were so stuffed and didn't try the tamales. I'd definitely go back and explore the menu. Lots of options.

I LOVE to travel and because of this I have been fortunate to visit many great places. My main love…read moreof travel is for two reasons: A) for the scenery/architecture and B) for the culture/food. In my travels I've had the privilege of visiting Guatemala twice. I was blessed to have home-cooked meals by locals all throughout the city. Prior to visiting Guatemala I had no idea there were so many variations of Latin foods between Central-American cultures and it was there I had an eye-opening experience with tamales. Guatemalans make their tamales a lot different than the Mexican style tamales I was familiar with eating most of my life. Their tamales were a lot fatter and far moister than Mexican tamales and the masa is softer. I instantly fell in love with the difference, especially after having eaten many overcooked & hard Mexican tamales in my lifetime. So you can't imagine how delighted I was to discover the Salvadoran tamales here @ Star Bakery are similar to Guatemalan tamales. [ THE FOOD ] After my first taste I returned 3 days in a row because I just couldn't get enough of the amazing flavor! Moist, fluffy, flavorful masa wrapped around juicy & oh so tender chicken. The ladies here truly have magic in their fingers, because it's not just the softness of the masa. I hear chicken bouillon is traditional in seasoning the cornmeal used to make the masa, which would explain why it had such a satisfying aftertaste. I also enjoy their Carne Guisada and delicious Fresas con Crema, but was not a fan of the Baleadas. Something about it tasted sour, almost spoiled. My favorite combination is an order of their Corn Tamales paired with the Grilled Steak next door @ Villino's. I ate them together as if they were steak tamales. The two flavors combined are enough to inspire an epic happy dance! On my latest visit I tried the Pupusas after two other customers in line convinced me I needed this in my life. They both recommended the Chicharron con Queso but I was more interested in the Cameron con Queso, so I ordered one of each. Both were great, but that dang Chicharron was AHHHH-mazing and exploded with flavor! They were absolutely right! * Elote Tamales (5 stars) * Pollo Tamales (5 stars) * Carne Guisada (4.5 stars) * Fresas con Crema (5 stars) * Baleadas (1 star) I think I just got a bad one! * Cameron con Queso (4.5 stars) * Chicharron con Queso (5 stars) [ FINAL THOUGHT ] Take a drive to Plaza Las Americas, casually meander to the food court in the rear and treat yourself to some of the best chicken tamales north of Central America. But don't be in too much of a rush because they take a little time to prepare. If you've ever traveled South of Mexico and sampled these amazing tamales, I think you will agree with me on their authenticity and deliciousness. BUEN PROVECHO! 2022 / 82

Star Bakery is located at the food court of Plazas Las Americas in Lilburn…read more I was up for checking the food court out to eat and explore more Hispanic food options. We were just walking around the food court and saw all the desserts that Star Bakery offered. The tres leches look deliciouis!! Then we saw they had tamales and pupusas!! Yes!! We ordered chicken tamales, cheese pupusas, cheese & jalapeno pupusas. I also got this yellow drink that was so delicious. They let us try it and I'm like wow!!! Food came out quickly. Delicious. They had the best tamales we ever had! The pupusas were so delicious too. I am so curious to try their tres leches next time. Big fan. Will come back! 57/2020
