Famale Restaurant — Restaurant in Galveston

Great experience here. Service was top notch, food was overall pretty great. There were only 2 things I didn't 100% enjoy: 1- my chorizo tamale, which was a bit dry and not very flavorful (but the masa was excellent and all the other flavors we tried we great) 2- there is not a ton of seating inside, and the tables were a little small for our group of 6 (they are long enough to seat 6, but rather narrow). They're also pretty close together. Wasn't a problem while we were there cause it was fairly empty, but I could see it being trouble during busier times or with a large group.

We tried beef, pork, bean & cheese, and rajas & cheese, which were all tasty. The chips & verde salsa served as an appetizer were SO good. I also thoroughly enjoyed the charro beans, I ate my whole bowl and I'm not really even a big fan of beans. The rice was solid also, a good accompaniment, but not the star of the show. The 2 bites of sopes I snagged off my friends plate were very satisfying, and I'm told the flounder tacos and gorditas were also great.

Will definitely be coming back here for more tamales and...
