Their oaxaqueños tamales are the best! The masa has the perfect texture, chicken is shredded and generous, and the green salsa is not too spicy with a lot of flavor.

"The best " everyone says Manila's are the best but I don't think so I always find hair in my tam ales or too much masa and not enough meat. Then they give you a hard time when you complain like they have a lot of tamales what's the big deal.

I love tamales. Driving around on the south side by Midway I've been seeing Rosa's Tamales along Kedzie Ave & 63rd street so I decided to stop in & check it out Rosa's has a variety of chicken & pork tamales both green (spicy) & red tamales. They also have Oaxqquenos (banana wrapped tamales in chicken) or jalapeño & cheese. They also have tamale dulces in corn, pineapple or strawberries. Rosa's sells steak, pork, chicken or chorizo tacos as well as tortas Y burritos. Initially I ordered 3 green/spicy pork tamales to dine in. Well I was eating them a line started to form for people buying tamales. By the time I was done eating I decided to get 1 dozen more w/6 pork (3 green & 3 red) & 6 chicken (3 green & 3 red) tamales for my family they were almost out. It's a good thing there was another small Rosa's on 3811 63rd Ave just east of Pulaski, but the only thing they had left were the green chicken tamales so I asked them to save me a dozen tamales for $14. My brother & sister in law are visiting from Berkley so this worked out good as they loved the tamales.

Delicious! Lots of flavor in the masa of the tamales. Had a great amount of chicken in the tamal Oaxaqueño delicious flavor. Bought regular tamales de frijoles con queso they were delicious. I also purchased Champurrado de Nuez and it also did not disappoint. Totally worth the price hope they never change their recipe. Worth the try!
