I finally visited Gordo's Tamales after hearing so much about it, and it did not disappoint! 🌟 The tamales oaxaqueños were huge and packed with flavor - definitely a step above what you find elsewhere. The cozy, casual vibe is perfect for a solo breakfast or brunch with friends.

I also tried their torta, which was generously portioned and delicious. The service was friendly, though it could get busy during peak hours. Just keep in mind, some menu items may not always be available. I’ll be back for more tamales - no doubt about it! 🌮🤤
