We just moved to the area and I was so happy to discover Hot Tamales. Really great salsa, chips, enchiladas, tamales, etc. Standard Mexican fare with a twist and fresh ingredients. The restaurant is small and popular at the obvious times - but you can call ahead to get on the waiting list. Staff is okay and keeps things moving... more
