Tamarindos

Fresh, delicious, AUTHENTIC!! I grew up in El Paso... there's tex-mex everywhere, advertised as "Mexican"... you can TASTE the "home cooked" in the meals at Tamarindos. Here, I have a tostada with shredded chicken- they also have chicken tinga, and let me tell you, that's ALLLLL the yum. I like their red hot sauce- it has that delicious smokey flavor I enjoy. If salsa verde is your thing, theirs has a really good kick. And, right now since it's all cold and whatnot, they have champurrado- a thick, warm breakfast beverage. They have SEVERAL aguas frescas, tons of fresh fruit, and a decent selection on their menu. One of these days, I'll be getting me a serving of cueritos.... mmmm

This area is one of my favorite Mexican restaurants to go. Foods taste good. The only thing I dont like is smaller parking space. Pretty tight parking area.

Honestly, I never do any reviews from my hometown but Tamarindos never does me wrong. EVER. I ordered the pozole to go today and that soup was warm, they’re generous with their portions and add alot of meat and maíz inside the soup. Always with the fresh ingredients and it came with 3 tostadas on the side. I just want to publicly say they’re the best of the best in Temple and their prices are fair.

It’s been a minute since we’ve been here. Seems like the prices went up and quality has gone down. $15 for Carne Asada fries and we were given a rotten Avocado. I would rather have been told you were out of Avocado instead of serving this on a to go order knowing we wouldn’t see until we were already home.

So delicious! I have tried to find a good place for my cravings and this place is heaven sent ! They even add a pair of cute sunglasses on each drink. So cute!
