Hot Tamale

Tasty tamales that go fast! My cousins and I came to visit the food truck Friday and Armored Cow Brewery in University. I haven't had a tamal in so long, so naturally we had to get some. We really wanted to try all three, but naturally the most popular flavor was out - pork with red sauce. We ended up with the chicken and green sauce and jalapeño with queso - both, delicious. There was a pretty solid distribution of the masa with the filling. I also really liked the salsa, they can be spicy. The guy at the truck was really nice and gave us a solid warning on the heat of the salsas. You can even order them to take home to store in the fridge and eat later. I definitely would come back, especially to try the pork.

This truck is usually always at Armored Cow Brewing & is SO good. Highly recommend the brisket nachos! Great price for the amount you get & super quick. Service is also friendly! So so yummy!!

I wanted to try something new and I was not disappointed. The service was very nice quick easy and informative. My food was great I ordered the barbacoa quesadilla. It came with a chips and salsa. It was great! The ambiance was decent as it's in the mall. But the food was good and came out quickly.

Wow. Best carnitas and carne asada tacos I've had in N.C. Used to live in SoCal so I have high standards with Mexican food. $3/taco. Fresh lime, cilantro, and diced onion in a warm corn tortilla. Very tender pork and steak. Home made hot sauce (on the side) had good flavor and heat. Perfect. Didn't try their tamales or burritos, but their tacos were awesome. Will definitely seek them out the next time I'm in Concord.

I'm not a food truck person at all. I feel like it's too hyped up for the quality of food and expense but I will say that I grabbed a burrito bowl from this food truck today at work because they were the closest to my office and it was sooooo good. I'm not sure what they put in the rice but it's addicting. Definitely recommend them and will get them again.

This place is very good. Authentic, cheap, good portions. I did the contactless pick up by email. I did not giving 5 stars because I had to wait much longer than my pick up time but the food was good. I would order again but just would come after my pick up time.

Awesome meal from Hot Tamale. The pork is very flavorful in the tamale, and it's a good sized one also. The verde sauce had a little kick to it, but very tasty. The carne asada tacos were flavorful and tender as were the carnitas. None of us had anything but praise for our meal, highly recommend the carnitas tacos and pork tamales, you won't be disappointed! The burrito bowl was tasty and a good size also, it did surprise me with using mozzarella cheese in it, but still tasty.

Holy Hot Tamales! My first time trying a tamale was in Phoenix, Arizona at an authentic Mexican cuisine restaurant called Mi Patio (see the review I wrote on them). From that impression, I was in love. Unfortunately I was only in Phoenix for a little while and had to come home to NC where we have "Mexican" restaurants. I've been searching for tamales since I returned home last year. Finally, I happened to come across this food truck's Instagram page and had to track it down! I drove from Mooresville to the far outskirts of Huntersville on my lunch break to try these tamales and they did not disappoint! I tried all 3 different types of tamale and each one was incredible! It's an honor to taste the results of the long and traditional process of making tamales. Thank you for this authentic Mexican tamale experience, Hot Tamale food truck!

I absolutely love Hot Tamale! Fantastic customer service & smiles on everyone's faces is always great to see. The steak quesadilla was so tasty. Highly recommend!

Best food in the food court. Since they opened, I have eaten here at least once a week. The tacos are beautifully seasoned and topped with fresh cilantro, lime, and radish. The tamales are large portions and always piping hot. The horchata is the best around! The cashiers are always amiable and go out of their way to make my meal perfect every time. The cooks are always working hard in what seems to be a fun and happy work environment. With a myriad of food items and sauces to choose from, hot tamale will have you coming back time after time.
