Yvolina's Tamales

stopped here on my way into pilsen due to its proximity to the halsted metra station and WOW! this place is amazing! customer service is excellent and the food itself was amazing! tamale dinner was perfect. they pride themselves on using no lard, no preservatives, no gluten, and no chicken broth, and you can taste the difference! lots of vegetarian options too, which i’ll have to try next time! the horchata was probably the best i’ve ever had - so creamy and flavorful! great restaurant in a great space!

Great tamales and award-winning mole. Almost everything on the menu is gluten-free and safe for coeliac's (but always double check). Reasonably priced and large portions. A variety of meat, veggie and vegan tamales daily- get there early before they sell out. You can dine in or take out and they do great reliable catering too.
