Why We Are The Destination for Tamales in Round Rock

A great tamale is one of the most labor-intensive things in Mexican cooking — which is exactly why so few restaurants bother making them right. At Rio Grande, our pork tamales are made in-house with seasoned masa and slow-cooked pork filling, steamed to the perfect texture, then plated and topped with our house chili gravy and melted Monterey Jack cheese. Served with rice and your choice of beans. Three tamales, one plate, zero shortcuts — the way they've been made here since day one.

For years, Rio Grande has been a staple of the community, known for bringing people together over steaming plates and cold drinks. Our commitment to quality means every tortilla is made fresh, and every margarita is mixed with care.
