This is for my visit 12/29/2017. Came here with my brother in law, this a nice place, but needs…read moremore exposure, the BrewMaster Fabian makes excellent beer, and is still the only licensed micro brewery in the state of Tamaulipas, tonight I had another version of a wheat beer, that tasted very good reminded me of a Hoogarden wheat beer, very smooth, light carbonation, with a fruity tone, no after taste. Had me a nice player of Sausage, pretzel and a type of buttered toasted baguette, a nice side of potatoes wedges with a poblano mayo dip. Also tried a Dark Porter, called Black Porter, a real caramel, chocolaty and coffee treat, low suds, low carbonation treat very tasty, this guy makes some mean brew. I love every visit here.

The only place to find craft beer made on-site in Tampico. I have been to dozens, if not hundreds…read moreof craft breweries around the world. I'm a part owner of a craft brewery in Lagos, Nigeria. Robleoro is the real deal. Their beers and ciders could stand next to one from anywhere in the world. Fabian is a genius. Obviously he's in a smallish town with not a lot of craft beer lovers yet, so the place needs more exposure, but if you are thirsty for something besides commercially produced piss water go to Robleoro and get some beer made with love. The food is really good also.

We had a group of about 10 show up to grab lunch around here. Apparently it's a favorite for some…read morefamily members who live in the area when they want to grab a nice, but not too nice, meal. For an American bar, this place would be above average, but for Tampico, this place is a bit higher end than most-- they have televisions everywhere, air conditioning, and well-kept bathrooms. They have a solid lunch special where you get an appetizer, an entrée, a soft drink, and a small dessert for considerably less than 200 pesos ($10 USD). Most of us went with this option. My wife opted for a pasta dish with shrimp. She seemed to enjoy it. I went with the milanesa portuguesa, which was surprisingly thin, but delicious. It came with a twice baked potato and some greens. Others ordered a variety of items, including fajitas and a vegetarian Panini. I didn't hear anyone say anything negative about their meal. The dessert was a small slice of cuatro leches cake. The size would have been disappointing at a higher price point, but after the filling meal at the cheap price, it was perfect. A couple of individuals went with the cappuccino instead. We thought they meant a cappuccino flavored cake, but no, they substituted an actual coffee drink. I ended up getting both and they paired well together. Service was a bit slow considering how empty the place was, but the servers were courteous and made sure to get our drinks refilled and various items upon request.

Good food with lots of local dishes and very affordable prices…read more For breakfast I would recommend gorditas, bocoles or desayuno huasteco. Pastries are also very good with a lechero (coffee and milk). Service is too slow though, we went for breakfast with place at 40% capacity or less, and it took them almost 30 min to serve our order.

If not the best, one of the 2 best options for italian food in Tampico…read more Appetizers? Try prosciutto, pizza to share or carpaccio. For entrees, try Mama Lucia salad, fish (negrilla) and 4 cheese pasta. There are 2 restaurants, one near the airport and the other one near Ejercito Nacional. If you plan to have a quier evening, choose the second option.

Good ambience. Excellent service. The restaurant was clean and tidy. But my experience with the…read morefood was less than stellar. The waiter suggested that I order the cowboy steak. When it arrived it was under cooked. They took it back and cooked it some more but even then the flavor was not so great. The mozzarella caprese salad was pretty good as was the bread. This side dish of spaghetti with tomato sauce was actually pretty good. Overall just an OK restaurant very close and convenient to the Hampton Inn
