El Tamaulipeco

Florida Panhandle


You wouldn't expect to find a Mexican gem in a little town like Quincy, but along comes El Tamaulipeco, with a solid menu of steaks, barbacoa (barbecue) and chicharron (fried pork). Impressive, especially given how bare-bones the venue is. Located west of the town center.
