Everyone loved their dishes. I am not a mole fan but my coworker got the burrito with mole and I started dipping my fork in his mole without asking. It was awesome. The only negative is no spoons. We wanted to get every drop of the sauces.

Thank you to Jaime and the other employees that helped cater a delicious taco bar at our daughter's wedding at Union Pine in February. Tamale Boy was professional, well coordinated and efficient. The taco bar was enjoyed by all the wedding guests. I would highly recommend Tamale Boy's catering services and restaurants!!!
