Seems to be pretty busy with people who live nearby. I placed an order and waited for pick up. One person running register and preparing. Tamales were okay. Cleanliness was okay. read more

They were selling by the nurse station in the hospital and I bought a mix of six. 2 cheese, 2 pork, 2 beef. They were all so good and tender, not to much masa, just right, and that orange sauce/salsa matched perfectly. Very nice guys selling the tamales.. read more

The quality of these Tamales is 5 star. Always fresh everyday and open to late in the day. During the holidays they do custom orders for you and your family. Good job guys read more

Best Tamales in the valley! Moist and flavorful! I love tamales and I have to say I wouldn't order tamales anywhere else except here!

Tried their chili/cheese, and their pork tamales. $2.50 each, single price. Tamales were extremely small. Taste were fine. Take out only, no tables and no salsa given out. Would not return. read more

Juicy tamales! Nice people as well. Will definitely order more. Quick n easy payment over the phone and delivery!

The tamale factory is in a small plaza tucked back between what looks like a bike shop and a salon. They are only open on weekdays between basically 9am - 5pm or whenever they sell out. But you can place orders ahead of time for holidays or pick-ups. Service was fast and super friendly. The menu is simple but glorious. Pork, chicken with green chili, or jalapeño and cheese. I ordered a dozen of the assorted flavors. They stay fresh about 5 days in the fridge or they also freeze well. Loved all 3 types and the masa had a wonderful flavor. They are the best I have had in Oregon. I highly recommend checking them out. read more

These tamales from the Tamale Factory in Central Point are the best I have had. They taste just like my grandma & mom would make. Ed was very friendly and helpful on how to reheat tamales at home. This location does not have a dine in option and I highly recommend placing your order in advance as I don't think you can just walk in a buy some but it's worth the wait!! read more

Driving through Medford looking for something to take on the road and came across this place on yelp. I have no pictures because we inhaled the tamales. These are to die for. I wouldn't have expected to have the best tamales ever in Medford,OR and I live in southern CA. The owners were kind and hard at work making the tamales. 10000% recommend read more

They have the best tamale I've ever tasted. My cousin and I went and bought 2 tamales each, tried it, and immediately went and bought a dozen for us to take home! I also literally went out of my way to go to the other side of town just for these tamales because I was craving them. 10/10. I wish they had more options though! They're just that good. read more

Absolutely excellent! Sweetest family and very reasonable prices. The tamales are extremely flavorful, will be coming back! Thank you tamale factory!!! read more

An amazing tamale place, ran by super kind people. We end up getting a dozen every month or so. It is not a dine in kind of situation! Only to go. The salsa is an absolute must for these. The jalapeño and cheese, pork, and chicken options are all super solid. Really cannot go wrong. It's better to go earlier in the day so they still have the salsa, they run out pretty quick. read more

Our grandma was telling us that she could find a good tamale in the valley since Señor Sams in Ashland stopped serving them. So I went on a search. We tried a trendy spot in Ashland but it was disappointing. So we came by Tamale Factory late on a Friday. They only had cheese-jalapeño left so we grabbed half a dozen. They were AMAZING!!! I don't even like tamales and thought they were delicious. If you want a good tamale, come here! Today we called ahead to place our order and they had it all packed and waiting for us!! read more

Tamale Factory - Pork tamales - Mexican Near Me - Central Point, Oregon

Great flavor! Great service! Great price! I'll be back for my Christmas order in a few weeks!

Nice people, really good tamales at an amazing price. Got a half-dozen tamales (chicken, pork, jalapeño cheese) for $12, about the same price per tamale as a Taco Bell taco -- but waaaaay better. read more

Wonderful, handmade tamales made at this family business! I love it! Thanks Ed and Rocio for making dinners easy and tasty for us!

Fresh to go tamales- you have a choice of pork chicken or cheese-jalapeño. All are tasty! The pork has an enchilada type of sauce and the chicken is a green sauce. These don't last long when I get them home. They are made fresh each day! You can call ahead for large orders if needed. This is off Pine Street in the back alley between 4th and 5th St. In Central Point. Open between 10a-4p. We bought a dozen yesterday and a half yesterday of mix variety.... Let's just say there are only a few left today . read more

Hey the Chicken Tamales are incredibly delicious too! We just went over and got 4 dozen half Chicken, half Pork, we put them in the freezer and they hold up nicely! They wrap them in 6 so that's perfect for us. When making a huge order like us, Please call them ahead of time to make sure they have enough. Thanks again Tamale Factory! #Mexican food Central Point, Or. #Mexican Food Southern Oregon #Best Mexican Food Jackson County, Or. read more

Stopped in the way down I-5 - really yummy super cheap! Chicken was excellent, Pork too. Got drunk from next door market. Perfect driving food. read more

Really don't want to give the tamales a two star because the lady was so nice, told me her husband and she make the tamales fresh every night . The price was reasonable, they were very flavorful, masa was light and airy, however the masa was too thick and had very little filling. I prefer my tamales with a little more filling. All that said I probably will visit the store again.They were good. read more

Literally the best tamales I've ever had in my life. Not too much masa or sauce, just the right amount all the flavors are good but the chicken with green sauce is my favorite!! read more

The bomb! Very very good! I was born in Portland raised in Fresno and I know a good tamale! These folks know what's up! Do yourself a favor and GETCHA SOME! read more

Looking for tamales? Go no further than Tamale Factory! Now this isn't an eat in restaurant all orders are to go but that is OK! These guys are super nice and the tamales are amazing! They have three main choices Chicken, Pork and Cheese and Jalapeno. The chicken has a green sauce inside and it is so freakin good! The Pork have a red sauce and although not my favorite of the three flavors they are good too. My wife actually likes these ones a ton! Last time I had them they were way amazing! The Jalapeno Cheese ones are super good too. They do custom orders too, last time I ordered I asked them to combine the jalapeno and the chicken in the same tamale. It was a small up charge but the results were insanely great! I highly recommend I eat there at least once a week. My only dilemma is what flavor to order next time I go in there. read more

Delicious! Delicious! Delicious! The tamales are always AMAZING! We always buy extra to eat later and they taste just as delicious! The family that owns this business is so sweet too! Love supporting local! If you are looking for tamales definitely order here. Best to order ahead especially around the holidays to make sure they have what you want because they will sell out! read more

Great tasting Pork Tamales. Have made many by hand these are very good also. Why slave over the dining room table when the tamale factory is close by. Will return soon for more. read more

We ordered ground beef because we don't like shredded meats. He did a wonderful job with them. Meat was well seasoned and with the red sauce they were perfect!!! We will definitely be ordering these again. Delicious!!!! read more

Holy mother of tamale gods, this place is the real deal. We found it on Yelp and went thinking that we'd be able to eat in, but this tiny place (which can be hard to find as it's tucked behind another restaurant) is take-out only. We got a couple dozen tamales to go and eight of us had them for dinner that night. Each one--pork, chicken, and cheese-- was moist, tasty, and perfect. read more

Great tamales. I preferred the chicken over the pork. Wish I could have tried the cheese but they were out. I would call ahead due to the popularity of their food. The first time I went they were out. read more

Excellent tamales. However they are now located at the corner of Bursell and Hopkins.

We love the tamale factory!! They are so friendly and nice. If you want the best tamales in town this is the place for you. If your work place is wanting tamales just let them know. They come around my work place every Friday so this is what I bring home to my family every they are so happy. The tamales are so fresh and juice. Love love love them. read more

Fantastic little stop, awesome ladies making the tamales and they assured me each one is made with love. Speak Spanish if you can and they love that too. I will be stopping here anytime I'm in town. Each tamale is fresh and authentic read more

Best tamales I have ever had. No exaggeration here. I even lived in Mexico for a little bit. And still enjoy these tamales. Awesome friendly people working here. If i could give 10 stars I would. read more

Literally the best tamales in southern Oregon. They are on the smaller side, so get at least 2, maybe 3. The chicken and salsa verde was amazing, as was the queso and jalapeño. read more

Yelped this. Great tamales. Take out only. Fresh & made right there in their tiny kitchen. Wonderful people. They are open 10am to 5pm Monday-Friday. Ed delivers to Grants Pass on Mondays, call5417789420 on Mon. morn. for your order & you can set up a time & place to meet. Just had pork one w/fried egg for breakfast, hits the spot. FANTASTIC! YUMMY! read more

omg do not miss out on this little hidden gem! best tamales i ever had. if you are making a big order call ahead. read more

Really great tamales, not loaded with masa. Good amount of filling. My favorite is the chili's and cheese, the pork and chicken are also good. Very nice couple runs this store in the ally behind fairy godmother tea house. Definitely worth checking out read more

Take out only. Tamales are delicious and authentic. I am not a local and didn't have the yelp app (lesson learned) but saw this place had 5 stars so how could I go wrong? The two ladies who work here were very accommodating to allow me to dine here as I had no way to enjoy the tamales elsewhere. This is a very small business that obviously has a great reputation. The good signage is key to finding this place, as it in the alley way behind the Chase Bank. I had two chicken and one pork with the spicy salsa on the side and a soda. I could've eaten 2 more tamales, but I would've had to take a nap! Highly recommended. I hope they develop a dining area and larger menu in the near future. In the meantime, i am very happy to have contributed to this American dream. read more

Looks like a one-woman operation. Very tasty. Good signage (otherwise you might not find it). The downside is that there isn't any seating. We plan to pick up more tamales next time! read more
