Our Story

A Family Recipe
That Never Compromises

Tia Lety Tamaleria y Taqueria was born from a simple conviction: that the best food comes from patience, quality ingredients, and a refusal to cut corners. Every tamale is wrapped by hand, every salsa is made from scratch, and every tortilla is pressed with the same care our family has practiced for generations.

Located on Evergreen Way in Everett, we've become a cornerstone of the local community — not because we chase trends, but because we honor what works. Real flavors. Real ingredients. Real hospitality.

What Sets Us Apart

The Tia Lety Standard

Fresh masa being hand-pressed for tamales

Masa from Scratch

We mill our own masa daily — never from pre-packaged mixes. The texture, the flavor, the integrity of every tamale depends on it.

Simmering pots of authentic Mexican salsa

Salsas Made Daily

Every salsa, every mole, every sauce is prepared from scratch each morning. No jars, no shortcuts — just fire-roasted chilies and real ingredients.
