It’s a walk up counter and you sit in the food court, but the food is legit. The tamales are delicious, especially if you like spicy. The medium salsa was probably more of a “hot” by Midwest standards.

I wouldn’t say this is a “great” taco place or anything, but for a kiosk on a thoroughfare of working folks during lunch hour, its not bad. Good portions, decent quality, average prices…decent stop for a workday lunch.

Honestly the best tamales in the twin cities. I know they have other food, but as far as I’m concerned, they only serve amazing pork, chicken and (ridiculously good) sweet corn tamales. Make sure to buy a pack of frozen ones for later!

I keep wanting to branch out on their menu, but I can’t resist the tamales. My favorites are the sweet corn and the green Oaxaca. Half price on the last Tuesday of the month–best deal in downtown.

It is hard to get a 5 star rating from me but I like this food so much I even get them frozen in the store to eat at home. Yep. It is that good. Staff is friendly at this location. To note, this is a little whole on the wall place and lines can be down the hall. Should tell you that they are doing something right.

This place is literally a hole in the wall serving up excellent tamales and daily specials. Try the Sweet Corn and Chicken tamales. You will not be disappointed. One of the better cheap lunch spots in Downtown Minneapolis.

Overall, this La Loma is really good! I come here at least 3 days out of the work week for vegan tacos and tamales. Both the pinto and black beans are flavorful, but can be too salty sometimes. The heavier set woman with thinly drawn eyebrows and a natural mean mug facial expression WILL cheat you out of your serving portions. The other two soft spoken women are really sweet and will do a great job putting your food together. They make your items pleasing to the eye and not just thrown together. The vegan tamales have a mixture of corn, tomatoes (could be red peppers, unsure), onions and some kind of green veggie, like zucchini or maybe cactus. Either way, they are yummy! The mild sauce is good. The medium verde salsa is really good, my fave, and has flavor and a kick. The hot sauce is just plain hot.

Great, simple food. Try tamales or chilaquiles (pictured).

The Red Oaxaca are some of my favorite tamales. This place is a hidden gem. If you want something tasty and you are downtown in the skyway. I would highly recommend these tamales!!!

Rude workers, authentic low quality food. I have given it enough chances and have tried taco, nachos, tamales & enchiladas. The corn tamales are the best of the worst. Also, I’m not sure how I feel about my nachos being microwaved to order. Meat seems dry and reheated multiple times.
