El Aguila in Gulfport isn’t your typical Mexican establishment. Chef and owner Joaquin Morales began his culinary journey at the early age of 14, and has since brought authentic dishes honoring the rich culinary heritage of Mexico to the Gulf Coast.
Every dish is prepared promptly with fresh ingredients, and with
a modern, gourmet
twist. At El Aguila, guests can expect
a one-of-a-kind dining experience and enjoy some of the many local favorites, such as Tableside Guacamole or sizzling fajitas. Shrimp Stuffed Avocado in a white wine, roasted garlic tomato cream sauce is another menu item that customers can’t get enough of!
El Aguila, meaning “The Eagle,” is also well known for its award-winning, hand crafted fresh fruit margaritas, including flavors like pineapple cilantro, orange and lime. “At El Aguila, you’ll find paradise in the shortcut to Mexico,” says chef Morales.
