Leal's Tamale Factory — Restaurant in Lubbock

There is Not one bad thing I can say about Leal's!

The staff is Always very friendly and accommodating! As soon as you open the door you are Always greeted with the biggest smiles 😃 and an attitude of gratitude.

Now the food is on another level! To the point that if we know we will be in the area. We will Not eat, just to save our appetites to eat here!

This is a place where it is always worth the wait!

Our favorites are the Crispy Chile Rellenos and we add Carne Guisada. This combination is amazing with hot, crispy and fresh all in one! (Hopefully one day I would love to learn how to make them this way! I wouldn't mind eating this everyday)

We recently tried the crispy chicken flautas and they were fantastic and chicken has a unique flavor that was really good 👍

Also the tamales are small (not like I'm used to) but very tasty 😋

Crispy Chile Rellenos will always be our main order, but we will definitely keep trying a new item from the menu.. Not one meal has been subpar! But always exceeds our expectations!

If you have Not tried Leal's yet... You're missing out!

I highly recommend Leal's as you will Always be more than satisfied with any choice. I know we are! 🤩 We will be back 😊👍

Food is good. I didn't want to post this review but decided it needed to be done. I order food to go from here multiple times a month, food is NEVER ready when I get there. Most of the time it's barely starting to be made when I show up. This is so frustrating. I have also witnessed several employees not wearing gloves while preparing food. No matter how many times they have washed their hands prior, it is still unsanitary to prepare customers food with their bare hands. Also, I order the SAME exact meals here every time and EVERY TIME, the price is completely different. Sometimes the price difference is as much as 7 to 9 dollars. It makes me wonder if the owner seems to make up random prices while cashing me out. I never say anything to her because she's always been nice. But it would be nice to know why the prices are completely different every time for the same meal I get. It's definitely not a way to run a local business if you want to keep customers. I'm sorry I had to post this but I felt it...

We called and ordered a family pack and added a dozen green chili cheese tamales to be ready to pick up on 5/26 around 5:45pm. When we arrived to pick up our order, they were just throwing together the tacos so they would be as fresh as possible for us when we got home. Everything else was hot and ready. We got a dozen enchiladas (half beef and half chicken), and dozen tacos, a quart of rice and a quart of beans, two gallons of tea, and two salsas with two bags of chips. Everything was very delicious, but my favorites were definitely the tamales and the salsa. This was more than enough to feed eight people, and everyone loved the food. Great way to feed a large party for a great price. We...
