Amazing food, amazing flavors for an amazing price. The happy hour menu was lovely with plenty of food and drink options.
The following is a MUST (happy hour prices):
- elote / corn ($10)
- dos gringas ($11)
- grilled vegetables ($10)
- jicama shrimp tacos ($13)
- tacos de pescado ($18)
Service really depends on your server… but the food was very flavorful and everything was seasoned well.
Mercado is a must visit, most places don't have all 3 of these:
1. Good Drinks
2. Good Guac
3. Good Food
Mercado checked all 3 boxes. The guac was perfect,v the chips plentiful, the tacos delicious and not dry. The drinks were flavorful and creative and the service can't be beat.
Parked in the street behind the building. No wait when we got there to be seated. Community seating is interesting. Server and waitress was fine. Do appreciate the small touches like asking if we need straws. Food was DELICIOUS - worth the price. Tri tip was perfectly medium rare. I'm not sure if it was the manager who came by at some point to ask us how we were doing and if we needed a box to go, but he was really nice! We also got a free dessert since we were first time customers - really tasty flan with a bit of infused alcohol in it maybe? Would come again.
I came here for happy hour and it was absolutely incredible. They had an extensive happy hour menu such as poke tacos with jicama, beautiful cocktails, queso to dip, and calabasas like mom used to make. It was a little overpriced, but I enjoyed everything there. They also had a delicious carnitas taco that was incredible and I live in ELA! Well done, cute ambiance! Also, just go for the valet. Parking sucks.
Food was incredible, tried 3 different dishes with my friends and each was delicious and well presented.
The spicy margaritas were also quite good
