Mama's International Tamales

The best people! We had a little mix-up with my order, but they were so nice and accommodating while I waited. I highly recommend it to anyone – vegan or not. I especially loved the vegan tamales.

One of my favorite restaurants in LA! The food is delicious and made fresh. It is owned by a lovely family that are super kind, and you can tell they love cooking and serving food. They have a full vegan menu too. Just finished my lunch and I am already looking forward to the next time I get to eat there. They also do catering/large orders so keep them in mind for big gatherings.

TLDR: Order the vegan pupusas and the pan sin pollo! Loved everything about this place from the many vegan options to the staff ! I told my friend I would go vegan if he could find me a good vegan pupusa and he definitely did. We ordered the plátano (ate to fast to take a pic), pan sin pollo, and both of their vegan pupusas de masa de arroz. Everything was fresh to order and the flavor was immaculate! They make their own vegan crema centroamericana from cashews and it’s to die for ! The non vegan crema has a very dístinct flavor and Mama’s captured it perfectly. My friend thoroughly enjoyed his pan sin pollo and couldn’t get enough of the consomé. I tried the vegan bean & cheese and revuelta pupusa with jack fruit. I was so happy to learn that they made the vegan pupusas out of masa de arroz! The salsa has the perfect consistency and the flavor complimented the pupusas. We washed everything down with a cold cola champagne. We were also offered a vegan Chile verde that wasn’t even on the menu yet! I can’t say enough good about this place. The family that owns and operates the place was extremely friendly and really made us feel at home. They were so kind and willing to answer any questions we had. I was thrilled to learn that the mother of the family had developed many of the recipes we were able to enjoy ! I will definitely be back again and again!

The food is good. Friendly service. It's a bit of a wait after ordering, but the food is worth it.

Ive been coming here for over 5 years now. I wish I lived closer so I can visit more often. Their food reminds me of my grandma's cooking and always hit home for me.
