About Tamale Shak | Mexican

Tamale Shak | Mexican is a hidden gem in Gulfport known for its delicious food and excellent service. The restaurant offers a low key local atmosphere with reasonable prices. Customers absolutely love the tacos, with some saying they are the best tacos they’ve ever had. The dozen tamales are authentically wrapped in corn husk, and the verde green sauce is the best. The beef tacos are loaded, filling, and so good with the shack sauce, which is a must on everything. The place is small and to the point, nothing fancy, but the hospitality makes up for the space. Outdoor seating is perfect for a beautiful day. Reviewers recommend the Shak Attack burrito and both mild and spicy tamales, which are hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious. For extra heat and flavor, try the red sauce. The owners are awesome too. Note that the restaurant is closed on odd days, so check the schedule to make sure they are open.

The food is amazing and the people are so friendly. It’s always fun to go get a smothered burrito.

Amazing tacos! Will be going back for tamales. Whenever a place is frequented by military, you know it will be good.

Y’all, I saw this place on TikTok and just had to go try it because you know it’s hard to come across some really good tamales these days. When I tell you these suckers were hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious — I mean it! 😋🔥 We got a dozen of the mild and spicy tamales, the Shak Attack burrito, and an order of beef tacos, and let me tell y’all, they did not disappoint one bit. 1000% recommend giving them a try! 🌮🌯✨
