Yummy restaurant in an unsuspecting place! My aunt read about this place in LA Times and decided we needed to try it. We ordered tacos, tamales, pozole, Jamaica and the horchata drink Everything was delicious! Small portions except the pozole, and all of the salsas were HOT. Our group of 5 sat outside and put together two tables. There are only about 6 tables so not a whole lot of space. There is a parking lot in the back but it's small as well. As we were leaving the waitress told us that the restaurant is closing and becoming just a food truck! So go quick before it's mobile
Delicious tamales, this is the best little spot for tamales hands down! Hopefully they open a dining restaurant soon
Wow!!! First time here with the fam and I was blown away with the food and FLAVOR! The owner Maria was super nice and welcoming ? try the tacos dorados, tamales and a very special and unique drink CHILATE. YOU WILL BE BLOWN AWAY ??
Tamales Elena Y Antojitos is in a quiet corner of Bell Gardens specializing in Afro-Mexican cuisine from the State of Guerrero. Here you'll find some of the best tamales around. They have two types of tamales: Hoja de Maiz (corn husk) and the more expensive Hoja de Platano (banana leaf). With each tamale, it is as if you're unwrapping a gift. Pollo en Salsa Verde (Maiz): The steamed tamale is rolled tightly in the husk, giving it a slender tubular form. The masa is sensational, soft and supple with a little creaminess (from the lard). I could eat just the masa alone without any fillings. This one has shredded chicken stewed in a mild green salsa. Puerco en Salsa Roja (Platano): The tamale is wrapped in a banana leaf. It has a flat rectangular shape and is infused with the aroma from the banana leaf. The red salsa is a little smoky and nicely seasons the shredded pork filling. Puerco en Salsa Roja (Maiz): This tamale is filled with stewed pork in a red salsa. The masa has an orange tint. Queso con Jalapeño (Maiz): The cheese imparts a tart flavor while the jalapeño lends some spice. The accompanying salsas are delicious. The red salsa has a little heat while the green salsa has a unique herbal flavor. Next time, I'll need to return for the strawberry and pineapple tamales. Parking: There is a lot in the back. Ordering: You can order at the counter. There is also a drive through window in the lot. Dining Area: There is a table in the small space indoors and some tables in the patio out front.
