If you’re looking for a date night type atmosphere Mexican restaurant this is it. Not your ordinary “Mexican “ type establishment. Nice fine dining type with a great menu of items to try. Their hours are split for lunch and dinner so be sure to go during open hours.

The stuffed Avocado is my favorite dish, creamy and so much flavor. The home made corn tortillas are some of the best I have found. The table guacamole is just average but the staff is super friendly.

First time here. Drove all the way from OS because my girlfriend had been here. I must say the BEST SALSA around. AND they make a Pineapple Salsa as well. AND they offer the Happy hour drinks in the dining room. We shared the Tuna Ceviche which was way more than we expected. Very fresh and tasty. Then we shared the chicken fajitas and also very good. Definitely be back.

El Aguila is not your normal Mexican restaurant...it’s Mexican with a flair! The restaurant is in a Cute Older style home with beautiful landscaping and gorgeous string lights on the beautiful front porch. It’s the perfect place to spend a romantic evening having a nice dinner and drink from the large drink menu. The inside is decorated very eclectic and the tables are dressed with crisp white tablecloths. They have a good size bar inside perfect for a ladies night and they also have a private dining room area too. The owner is so friendly and makes his rounds to welcome you and that always nice. Tonight I had what’s called P5 Chicken.... it was delicious! My son had the steak quesadilla, my dad had Mexican burger and my step mom Had Jamie’s grilled eggplant. We had table side guacamole & cheese dip and they were both great too! The waiter was very friendly, professional and always had our glasses full. All in all it was GREAT!

So happy to see my cousin & his family for our last night of vacation. Had the Best food hands down at a little Mexican restaurant off the main strip they recommended. They serve Way more than just Mexican food, which was also yummy: especially the guacamole & burritos, but have a mix of everything (see pics)!! The owner checks on customers too, and doesn't stay hidden. This place is truly a gem worth going to!!!

Check our full review on Facebook Mississippi Gulf Coast Foodies Group. El Aguila is one of our favorite Gulf coast restaurants. There is no tex- mex to be found. It's prepared to order, high-quality, fresh ingredients, with delicious options from their ceveche, to the lamb chops. All items with the cream sauce are 's ! Service is perfection. The owner even greets guests to be sure their experience is great.

We just moved from the north end of last year. We really enjoy this authentic restaurant. Hope is our server, one of the best anywhere! We go quite often...good food, from scratch cocktails...simply the best.

I'd give 100 stars if I could. This has quite quickly become our date night favorite spot. Always great food, perfectly cooked, very fresh quality ingredients, very friendly staff and margaritas are to die for. I have a gluten allergy and they are very knowledgeable on ingredients and processes. Very accommodating. Highly recommend their tableside guacamole, tuna ceviche, tamales, garlic shrimp, ribs, lamb Chops, jalapeno margarita and pineapple jalapeno margarita just to name a few favorites. Highly recommend the specialty section on his menu, that's where you'll find his love for his craft. They use fresh squeezed juice for the margaritas by the way. Don't be surprised if the owner stops by your table. He's always working hard right alongside his staff. Can't say enough good things
