✨ Capturing the Flavor of Downtown Gulfport for 55+ Years in the heart of Downtown Gulfport.✨

For 55+years, El Mexicano has proudly stood as a historical landmark in the heart of downtown Gulfport, Mississippi. While the world changes around us, we have stayed dedicatedly consistent with our patrons' absolute favorites. We still hand-craft our signature homemade salsa and vibrant homemade salsa Verde from scratch daily, and we remain the one and only destination where you can experience your meal cooked to order and brought to your table on a sizzling hot plate straight from the oven. Thank you for making us a part of your family's traditions for over half a century.
