‘Tis the Season for Tamales! [Nov 17 – 22, 2026]
🌽 Wrapped in Tradition, Served with a Side of Tenderness
One of our favorite food traditions is making its return for the season! From November 17–22, join us at Tortilla Flats for Tamales Fest. It’s going to be a week dedicated to rich flavors, comforting traditions, and creative spins on the beloved Mexican classic tamal.
From traditional favorites to unexpected flavor combinations, there’s something special about a perfectly steamed tamal made from scratch and with love. Bring your appetite and loved ones, and enjoy a little taste of the holiday spirit with us!
We believe great food starts with fresh, locally sourced ingredients and a passion for bringing people together. This year, we’re celebrating both with a delicious week of tamales, inspired flavors, and the kind of good food worth gathering around. We can’t wait to celebrate with you! 🎉
Fall has arrived in Santa Cruz, bringing cooler ocean air, golden sunsets, and the perfect weather for a belly-warming bowl or platter of something indulgent. At Tortilla Flats, we’re serving up cozy Mexican flavors made for relaxed evenings and good company.
