It definitely had a great vibe and amazing customer service. I went Tuesday and got the $5 chicken quesadilla. Delicious

Some of the best food I’ve had on this Earth, the tamale recipe is generations old, made fresh. Brisket tacos had some of the best outright brisket I’ve ever had, 11/10 for real. Excellent service, great hole in the wall shop, great prices.

Husband stopped in for tamales. Called me straight away and said they were the best he has had in a long time. He is from Houston Texas and he said they reminded him of home so much. Hasn’t had any this good in about 30 years. He also said owner was the nicest. He had a great experience there and gives it 5 stars. Thanks for making his day!!!

JR runs a business that is truly a labor of love—there is no other way to say it. “It’s Tamale Time” is genuinely a treat. Two types of cuisine I am critical of are Korean and Mexican given my heritage and upbringing; my wife and I have struggled to find good Mexican food for over a year in the area surrounding Benning, and while we are getting ready to leave, it is bittersweet that we found this gem today.

I don’t believe I have ever had a tamale before today. I am glad I went into It’s Tamale Time instead of Subway(as I had planned). Their tamales and quesadillas are fantastic. The owner was super friendly. We will be back.

Excellent tamales. We tried in Rosemary Beach and purchased the pork tamales, red and green sauce. We will be ordering more to be shipped. The best we have had, even while in Mexico.

We sat at their one cute little table and ate a variety of tamales. Really delicious so we brought a dozen home. Favorites: chili cheesesteak and chorizo. We’ll come back!
