    Order of Tacos Dorados, carne asada burritos, chips and salsas, side of rice and beans, and horchata.
    Bess B.

    I know it's anomalous to order crispy tacos at what I feel is an authentic Mexican restaurant, but their tacos dorados are delicious. I get them along with the carne asada burrito and an horchata every time I come to Delano to visit my parents. Today, we ordered 10 tacos dorados, 2 carne asada burritos, a side of rice and beans, large chips and salsa, and a medium horchata. Everything came out to $50 and some change. Prices have gone up over the past few years, but so has every other restaurant. Needless to say, the food is still very delicious and the way the food is put together, looks like they actually care about presentation and the customer's thoughts.

    Shredded beef tostada
    Trini S.

    Casual, authentic Mexican restaurant offering delicious home made food - plain and simple. We tried a few items including a shredded beef tostada, shredded beef sopes, a seafood botana and a couple of carne asada tacos. Everything we tried was delicious and authentic. My favorites were the tostada and the botana. The shredded beef on the tostada was flawlessly seasoned and had the perfect amount of juices. It was topped with beans, shredded lettuce, tomato and cojita cheese. It's served with two fried tostada shells with a great crunch! The botana was served with shrimp, octopus abalone, and an oyster. The seafood was fresh without tasting fishy or having a gummy consistency. There were 3 sizes to choose from. This is a no-nonsense place with fast, friendly service and a chill vibe. They still serve complimentary chips and salsa and also have a decent beer selection. If you want delicious food without all the bells and whistles stop by Tampico and satisfy the craving!

    I'm not from the area and thought I'd try something new while on my way home from Los Angeles. I ordered chilaquiles with no cheese and the egg cooked with the tortillas and they gave it to me on the side. I don't send food back and would have enjoyed it better, but overall I'm satisfied with flavor, spice and texture. I came during a slow time but filled up soon after. Restaurant is ran by a nice family and will return to try again.

    My parents rave about the chile relleno burritos here and I accompanied them the other day but since I don't like chile rellenos I ordered a chicken sope. After waiting about 20 minutes for food in a relatively empty restaurant I received a beef sope. Not wanting to wait longer I just ate it. It was okay. The beef wasn't seasoned well and the sope was soggy. The beans and rice were also bland. I told my parents I don't think I would ever go back after that experience. And when we were done eating we had to ask the waitress for the check even though we were clearly done for a while. They have a very small parking lot but there is street parking. And on a positive note, their chips and salsa are excellent! And their only saving grace besides the chile relleno burritos I can't try.

    Carne asada tacos with everything on it.  With endless homemade chips & salsa , water for only $ 3.20

    The carne asada burrito from here is still supreme for me over anywhere and I usually get it from here when I am in town.

There was some road construction out front and assumed the place would be empty, but I WAS WRONG! I was greeted immediately by a kind gentleman who worked with me in ordering exactly what I wanted. I couldn't decide between a tostada de ceviche de camarón or a tostada de jaiba (imitation crab meat) so I asked if I could have a bit of both. He agreed. I payed and waited probably less than 10 minutes for my order. They even set my tostadas on the side so they wouldn't get soggy! I did dock a star because once I made it back to the office, I opened my plate and it was a large portion of food, but the jaiba was not marinated in lime nor seasoned at all... Just dry. The camarón ceviche beneath it was perfect. I did try my best to mix it up best I could. It wasn't bad, the food was flavorful, I'm sure had I made a choice of one or the other there probably wouldn't have been any issues. Also, I was pleasantly surprised at the extra limes, salt and Valentina packets that came with it. They thought of everything: fork, plate, napkins. Loved that. The menu looks super appetizing and I will definitely be back to try more off the menu.
