THE
TAMALE PLACE
The Tamale Place is a Mexican
restaurant that has three locations in Indiana:
Greenwood, City Market, and Rockville Road. This restaurant has a casual atmosphere and
customers order at the register from an overhead menu. The Tamale Place has been visited by Guy
Fieri and has been featured on the popular Food Network show “Diners, Drive Ins
and Dive”. This restaurant’s specialty
is hand made tamales. The customer can
choose from chicken or pork tamales in a green or red sauce. For those who like it hot, spicy selections
are also available, including chipotle chicken or beef.
Other Mexican selections are also
available on the menu. A variety of
tacos and tortas are offered. My favorite
is the chicken verde taco with green sauce.
Combo meals are also available and are a great value. The customer begins by choosing a tamale,
taco or torta. Rice or black beans are
then added to the combo meal, along with tortilla chips, salsa and a fountain
drink. Another popular favorite are the
Nachos. A huge dish of warm nachos
smothered with chicken, beans, cheese and lettuce is another of my all time
favorites. The homemade nachos have a
delicious taste that is unlike any other.
The atmosphere is very casual and
the customers can sit at a picnic table, or at metal round tables with chairs
inside the restaurant. At some
locations, outdoor seating is also available during the warm months. During peak lunch hour, the restaurant can
become very busy, and seating is limited.
If you want to dine inside, it is best to arrive before noon, or maybe
at 1:00 pm. Don’t let the long lines
turn you away from The Tamale Place. It
is well worth the wait! I hope you like
it as much as I do! Be sure to visit
their website to read about the history of the Tamale Place and to check out
the menu!
