Pochitos Tortilla Factory

Amazing tamales! Got both the red and green with pork, as well as a salsa and red chile sauce. Chips and flour tortillas too. Everything was delicious and very fresh! Definitely worth the 30 min drive from Lafayette. I went on a Saturday morning at 10 and had no problem getting everything I wanted. There is usually street parking very close as well.

Bought a dozen red pork chili tamales and they have no flavor, hardly any meat, mostly masa. Will not go back and I recommend do not buy their food. Very disappointed. I will stick to driving far too get better tasting tamales and empanadas.

I have loved this place for the past five years in which time I've seen the pricing go up drastically due to the gentrification of the neighborhood. I've had no problem with the price increases as the food has always been top notch. Over the past year I've only made it to Pochitos twice (Covid) and both times I've been disappointed. Each time there were price increases which I've been ok with but the food portions have really gone down, along with the heat. The food used to be crazy flavorful and spicy, I'd crave the spiciness regularly. Now, It's pretty bland. You used to get five enchiladas in one to go container, now you get three. It used to cost $4.25 for the barbacoa, which always contains some gristle but is always delicious, now it's $13 and to be honest, I'd like less gristle at that cost. I'm happy for the success of this place because historically the food was always great, and I am thoroughly disappointed with my pick up order today. I'm going to give it one more shot and hope that this specific batch of food is bland, but I'm certainly really missing the old Pochitos enchiladas and sauces A LOT. As someone else said, end of an era.

I have bought tamales from Pochitos now for about three years very reliable, today very disappointed NO MEAT ALL MAZA I got the red chili tamales they should just call them red dye Tamales no taste no spice to them, 3 coworker and myself went down to buy a dozen each, stopped to try one for lunch, everyone had the same reaction just not good, I tried to give mine away no takers oh yeah the price went from $13.00 to $17.00 and
"NO MEAT" end of an era for me I wont be back. it almost looks like their taking advantage and price gouging all the newbies in the area, If your not from Colorado you wont get it, Pochitos had to of sold out under new management the food was that bad.....

I've gotten two things here: packages of tortillas and containers of green chili. Both are excellent, but especially the tortillas!

No longer can say this is favorite place. After coming here for Christmas tamales for several years have found a new place. The tamales are still ok but are no longer as full as they used to be.

For authentic Mexican tortilla, beans, salsa and tamales...this is the place!! Buy everything you're interested in because it's all good and probably won't cost much. A lot of their items use lard (pig fat) which is what makes it cheap and authentic. Don't skip the salsas.

If I could give this place another two stars I would. I've been searching for a place to buy tamales. I have tried the popular places in Denver for a while now, and today decided to give Pochitos a try, and boy I'm sure glad I did. For me, the search has ended lol. I got a dozen red and a half dozen green and cheese. First I must say they are huge! Bigger than the others I have tried. They are $14/dozen. The red are very meaty, spicy, and flavorful. The green are tasty you can taste the green chile, and cheese in these. I also bought some tortillas they taste homemade and are delicious. I had also a few apple empanadas they are so good this place is a must try. The place is clean which makes me happy.

Picked up some red pork tamales on Christmas Eve. Good flavor, no spice and puro masa. Also purchased some tortillas that were a weird and rubbery in texture.

I'm from San.Antonio and was missing homemade tortillas. I stumbled on this little place and finally found the real deal. Ignore any naysayers. They've never had real Mexican food. I am so thankful I found Pochitos!
