On a lark, we booked a weekend in Marietta. I'll admit it: I was sceptical. Not now. Tampico was an unexpected treat. Super nice staff (shout out to Liliana), great drinks, and plenty of choice on the menu. And yes, super keto friendly! Fish tacos and the Santa Fe Special (steak and chicken fajita-style without the waste-widening flour tortillas) were terrific. Great ambiance and nice patio. Come visit Marietta, ride a sternwheeler on the Ohio river, check out the live music and theater (I know, right??) and spend a few hours at Tampico!

Excellent Mexican food! We had the Speedy Gonzalez and the Arroz Con Pollo. Both were very good and the service was great as well. Will definitely return!

My friend & I were in Marietta & we needed a place to eat before heading back to NE Ohio. It was the only spot open on a Sunday evening near where we were & it was a great choice. The outside looks inviting with sidewalk tables to enjoy if you prefer eating outside. The decor inside is gorgeous with lots of color. The staff was friendly & efficient. They were short a server but they worked hard & we never would have known if we hadn't heard the manager explain the wait at the register. The food was delicious & the prices are very reasonable. If you're in Marietta & like Mexican food this is a must stop.

Great place. I am not normally a big fan of Mexican food. However, this place was VERY good. I had a beef burrito. Everything was great. The atmosphere is real nice and it was clean inside. Our server was friendly. Parking is on the street but plentiful. Definitely will be back.

Great service, amazing food and drinks! The salmon salad was tasty and fresh, along with the mango margarita with tajin. Then the fried icecream, was soo good! Highly recommended to anyone in the area!
