★★★★★ 5.0 Walt Doig · Nov 2025

Great place for a quick bite. Fun atmosphere and friendly staff. Food is great but I would change two things: Serve refried beans with chips before dinner and Use more queso with the entrees. Other than that, I recommend El Tepame for a great, fast bite to eat!!!

The food was great and served fast! The waiter and other employees were very attentive and kind. Whenever Im back in the area I will definitely be stopping here again :)

I absolutely love love this place. Margareta on the rocks for my mom. She did a happy dance, Id say they nailed it. I ordered my usual taco salad, tortilla crispy not burnt , just the right mixture of flavors nothing over powers the other. And our table was serviced respectfully by multiple staff members. I WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT AND RECOMMENDED!!

First, the salsa is soooo GOOD! Great customer service with really good food. Prices are great and they have happy hour everyday from 2-8pm

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Beverly Adkins · Dec 2025

I ordered a steamed plain tamale, a cheese enchilada, rice and guacamole. The tamale came with cheese melted on it. The enchilada came with a bowl of red sauce on the side. That was okay but what the heck? Never did get the guacamole. The salsa tasted like tomatoes came out of a can. The tamale had maybe one teaspoon of meat in it mostly Grease and seasoned masa. Very disappointing won't be back
