Carniceria La Chiquita

Following in true Mexican tradition with carnitas, barbacoa, tamales, guacamole, salsas and a taste of Puerto Rico (lechon asada) roast pig! A true treat after Sunday Mass. Great ambience, courteous workers and staff.

Nice little place to buy tamales, carnitas, chicharrón, etc. very clean

Great place to shop.very friendly people.. and nice and clean!!!

Hands down best tamales in NWI! I try tamales anytime I see them on a menu, but La Chiquita is what I will always compare them to. I have traveled from Crown Point for years for their pork tamales and fresh salsa. This is a small family run Carniceria and everyone is always welcoming and helpful with orders. Incredibly authentic, super quality food, great price. I’ve hooked my friends on these tamales and now none of us will go anywhere else and I’m always asked to bring them to taco night! Definitely worth the drive.

Fresh tamales, chicharron fresh salsas and guacamole. Very well worth the drive to get there for me.

Love the tamales. Purchased some for a colleague and she's hooked on them too. Wonderful and helpful, polite staff.

Never leave!... love this place! Great for all things Hispanic- tamales, pasteles(sometimes), pernil, tortillas, all necessary ingredients for your special Hispanic dish! And, so much more... everyone is very nice and helpful!

Where I get my tamales and pick my own Carnitas! Great prices

Best Tamales Period!!!
Well Worth the Drive from Chicago to East Chicago!!!!

Picked up some tamles and carnitas first time having this place and they were great cheese and salsa are my favorite

A hidden gem.. small but has great tamales and manudo. The servers behind the meat counter are more then willing to accommodate you on what you ask for👍🏽
