New Mexico Tamale Company - Bellingham

The authentic dishes at this restaurant are incredibly delicious! The staff is super friendly and takes great care in preparing the food.

It's fantastic to have a vegan option that is not only delicious, but also fulfilling. The Sante Fe Tamales at this restaurant will surely satisfy any type of diner.

New Mexico Tamale Company is a restaurant that truly cares about their customers, including vegans. Today, I decided to try their vegan rice and sample their vegan Zia (Cactus) tamales. I ordered it to-go and brought it home to enjoy for dinner. Upon opening the meal, I noticed that there was cheese and dressing on my salad, so I called the restaurant to inquire if it was a vegan version (as I cannot have dairy). The owner, Dora, answered the phone and confirmed that I had received the wrong order. I offered to return it and get a correct order, but Dora insisted on personally bringing me the correct meal. She even threw in some extra vegan treats as a gesture of appreciation for her vegan customers. Dora is an absolute gem - proud of her business and a perfectionist in the kitchen. The food was flavorful and spicy (not just hot) and I was pleasantly surprised by the unique taste. With delicious food and excellent customer service, I highly recommend this local restaurant - especially for vegans.

We found this place accidentally on a cold rain Tuesday night in bellingham. we missed the ride to the restaurant we wanted to eat. on our trip around the block we discovered the new mexico tamale company. we love a good tamale. this place began in fetndale and now it is bellingham. the food and service was excellent. the price on the tamale Tuesday for two dinners of tamale reis and bohnen came to $26.00

If you are mexican or hispanic and are looking for authentic tameles, this is NOT it. %100 of the 5 star reviews are from white people. my husband had been wanting to stop here for months! we finally came in last night to try them and let me tell you that DISAPOINTED is an understatement. some of the tamales were dry and some were undercooked and mushy, the dough very thick. definitely not your abuelitas recipe. if u want authentic, go to the Skagit Latin Mall Facebook page. there are many ladies that sell tamales from home! NOW THOSE ARE AUTHENTIC!
