Evie’s Tamales 3454 Bagley St Detroit, MI 48216 Hands down one of the most affordable Mexican restaurants in metro Detroit. The food is good too! The tamale lunch is $6. Great little family owned spot. #michigan #detroit #southwest #fyp #mexicantown #mexicanfood #fooddetroit #detroitfoodie #affordablefood

So I'm going to be reasonable with this review. Their prices are EXTREMELY GOOD. But almost too good....when I called to places Togo order, I felt like I was kinda rushed. I asked what was the menu like because they don't have an online menu. The lady over the phone kinda sounded irritated with me. I ordered some tamales and asked for green ones with chicken.... Considering this is a "Mexican restaurant" and with me having a Hispanic background, I was excited to hear about this place... But they don't have ANY green TAMALES! 🥺 Their breakfast burrito that had potatoes had an odd taste... Me and my boyfriend were not pleased. Authentic tamales are THICK, moist and most Hispanic eateries MAKE GREEN TAMALES! I should've known better... 🤣 Just a warning, if you're genuinely Hispanic... I don't think you will like their tamales here AT ALL. The Maseca probably doesn't even have Manteca in it 🙄 the tacos weren't bad, but y'all should offer tortilla milagro instead of plain corn white tortillas. Way better taste :')

So glad I found this place! I had a great experience today, went early for breakfast and was not disappointed. First of all it’s very affordable! I work a lot and don’t have much time to cook, and eating out can get expensive. No worries with this place, excellent value and excellent quality food! I got the Huevos a la Mexicana. It was absolutely delicious and reminded me of breakfast my grandma would make for me growing up. Service was fast, and the waitress was very sweet and kind, I forgot to get her name. The salsas were very flavorful especially the spicy one! I also took some spicy pork tamales home for later :) I can’t wait to go back! I will recommend this place to all of my family and friends.

This is a little family-owned Mexican restaurant. I have been coming to this restaurant for over 20 years. Authentic Mexican food their specialty is tamales. I order a breakfast dish with scrambled eggs tortillas and cheese...it comes with beans and rice and your choice of tortillas. Everybody gets a cookie when they're done. The main road they are on called Bagley is currently under construction. The new road looks like it's going to be possibly a pedestrian-only pathway. It looks fantastic. The businesses are still open while the street is under construction. It should be done sometime early December 2019.

Great service! Went there around 2 pm. Almost no one was there, so the service was very fast. Ordered two dozen tamales, and they were to our table almost instantly. Down side of going in the afternoon is there was less availability of different kinds of tamales. Only had regular and spicy pork. Still very good! Salsa had a great flavor. The hot was perfect. Not overbearing, and the salsa Verde had a little bit of kick. When going here, highly suggest calling in your order ahead of time. They can make any of their tamales if you call 1 hour ahead.
