The 15 Best Shrimp Dishes In Philadelphia - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"Similar to the original 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 on a weeknight. While we love the tamarind margarita and tasty chicken enchiladas, the shrimp tacos have us fantasizing about a personal taco eating contest. Topped with pickled cabbage, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime, they are crisp, citrusy, and tangy. You can get them with the fiery roja salsa or a tamer, earthy verde. Either way, you'll be mopping up every last piece of it on your plate." - candis mclean, alison kessler
