    Try the Brochettas—jumbo shrimp stuffed with jalapeños and cheese, wrapped with bacon and grilled! Served sizzling on a plate of grilled onions and peppers. Best Mexican Italian seafood ever!

    Tampico is in a Mexican-American neighborhood with a basic decor of neon signs and Formica tables and a lively crowd that is mostly Spanish-speaking, as are the staff.
