Tamalex Bar & Grill

Similar to the South Philly location, Headhouse Square’s Tamalex serves great, affordable Mexican food in a space that’s casual enough to walk in with a few friends. But this new spot has the bonus of a bar and live music (though there's no all-day service or Honduran food, like the 7th Street restaurant). It's a great option for Happy Hour, especially since the drink specials run until 7pm. Come for good tacos, Modelo on tap, and an impressive variety of mezcal and tequila. There’s probably going to be soccer playing behind the bar, and someone might even randomly start playing the piano next to a tequila bottle shaped like a shotgun. Either way, you'll be mopping up every last piece of smoky al pastor on your plate.
