    Tamale Pie with Fritos. Amazing!
    Lavenia W.

    Tamale bowl with Fritos and chili! It was delish but make note you can share this. Includes two tamales of your choice. Everyone so nice and very helpful.

    Dear Tommy Tamale. Good God !!!! That Tommy Bowl is out of this world . It's the perfect combination of everything I love. Those is now my new favorite dish. This is my first time having it, and it sure won't be my last. OMG!!! If you haven't eaten here, you're missing out. Thank you for phenomenal food.

    This is my second visit to Tommy tamale. Again pleased with my visit location was slow with about 3 people in it. Walked up to the counter and ordered my frito tamale bowl. I don't cone here often because the food would make me gain 300lbs so I try to go on special occasions. I thought with all the inflation that the bowls would cost like 15 bucks due to going to the hamburger joints and paying an arm and a leg for a combo now, but it was only 10.99 for a bowl which was great. Place is good in a snap. location is always clean and not far from my apartment. Keep up to good service and food.

    Food is great. Highly recommend the tamale bowl. Habanero pork tamale is my favorite. They sell frozen tamales by the 6 pack. Great place... highly recommend if you're looking for tamales ( good meat to masa ratio ).

    If you are craving for Tamales, this is a perfect place. They have variety of vegetarian and non- vegetarian tamales, great sides and salsas. This place is BYOB in case you are looking for one. They could have longer hours to attract more people for dinner . We have been to Grapevine location many times and recently tried one in Coppell.

    Online ordering was convenient and they accept Google Pay. Order was ready when I reached the restaurant and the pick up was a breeze. As I got to my car, an employee ran over with part of my order that was in a second bag. After reaching home I found that the order missed the salsa that I paid extra for. Well, a few misses from an order fulfillment standpoint. I will give this aspect only 2 stars. Lesson learnt to check the order before leaving. Now the food. The Tommy bowl with the habanero pork tamale and beef tamale was out of the world. This will be my go to place for a tasty bowl. The frozen tamales come with heating instructions and I'm yet to try them. The menu has other interesting options and I can't wait to try them. The restaurant has been on my bookmark for a while now and I'm glad I finally tried it. Pricing : Moderate Will I return : Oh yeah! But I will check my to-go order ;) Rating : 5 stars for the food. Took away 1 star for the missed salsa that was paid.

    The portion was great for the price! The brisket was on the saltier side, but it was still…read moredelicious nonetheless. I've had Hispanic meats that tasted straight up like a salt brick, but this was good. A good salty. The salad and rice were delicious, wow, I ate that up. Complimentary nachos came with three dips. The salsa verde was perfect for me because it wasn't spicy at all! It was delicious. I came alone, so I guess the server didn't bother me a lot out of respect. I like that. It was good for me, and I could always wave them down whenever I needed. They kind of have an "open kitchen" so you can see what they're doing. The servers and chefs have a good relationship as far as I could see. All hardworking staff doing honest work. Everything I had was delicious and service was hospitable. I would come here again. What a great night. Gracias!

    We have been meaning to try Gabriela & Sofia's for some time now, as we have heard wonderful…read morethings. And I will say that the food is delicious...so flavorful and tasty. The service was also great! My husband was disappointed that there were not any beers on tap (bottles only), but they had a delicious mixed drink menu. However, we were very disappointed in the atmosphere. We seated towards the back of the restaurant in direct line of sight of behind the "bar" where an employee's child was playing and a great view of ketchup bottles (who wants ketchup in a Mexican restaurant). Gabriela & Sofia's is in the $$ to $$$ price range, and at this price point ambiance should be continuous throughout the restaurant. Our unfortunate seating location sadly put a damper on the overall experience.
