Tamales Elena Y Antojitos is in a quiet corner of Bell Gardens specializing in Afro-Mexican cuisine from the State of Guerrero. Here you'll find some of the best tamales around. They have two types of tamales: Hoja de Maiz (corn husk) and the more expensive Hoja de Platano (banana leaf). With each tamale, it is as if you're unwrapping a gift. Pollo en Salsa Verde (Maiz): The steamed tamale is rolled tightly in the husk, giving it a slender tubular form. The masa is sensational, soft and supple with a little creaminess (from the lard). I could eat just the masa alone without any fillings. This one has shredded chicken stewed in a mild green salsa. Puerco en Salsa Roja (Platano): The tamale is...
Yummy restaurant in an unsuspecting place! My aunt read about this place in LA Times and decided we needed to try it. We ordered tacos, tamales, pozole, Jamaica and the horchata drink Everything was delicious! Small portions except the pozole, and all of the salsas were HOT. Our group of 5 sat outside and put together two tables. There are only about 6 tables so not a whole lot of space. There is a parking lot in the back but it's small as well. As we were leaving the waitress told us that the restaurant is closing and becoming just a food truck! So go quick before it's mobile
What an unexpected surprise this place was. The tamales are to die for. Fresh. Soft. Flavorful! The cheese and jalapeño tamale is a real treat! I could have that for everyday breakfast.The soft tacos de barbacoa con consume are definitely a must have. Two won’t be enough. Get 4!I walked in not knowing anything about the place, the host pretty much ordered for me and didn’t disappoint.Must go there again!
I've been trying to try this place for a year or so but never found myself near them while hungry. I expected it to be sophisticated, modern versions of traditional Mexican food but it's not. What it is is traditional tamales and tacos from the alcopulco region but exceptionally well done! Amazing beef tongue taco, grilled fish tacos and pork tamales in a red marinade Sooooo good!
