Portions are a little on the small side. Would have benefited from a side of beans and rice included, or maybe some chips and... salsa at the table. The food was delicious though, and there were lots of vegan and gluten free options. Drinks were good too. Will definitely be back. Read more
Delicious and the service was impeccable. Got the chicken enchiladas with half red sauce and half mole and they were delicious.... My father got the half green and half red and loved them. My sister and mom got their shirmp tacos were crunchy refreshing andvery fresh. The guacamole is so fresh and delicious. Must go and will definitely go back. Read more
My favorite spot for great Mexican cuisine, the beautiful decor is the icing on the cake. I recently went and was pleasantly... surprised to see the menu has more options for meat eaters to vegans and vegetarians, without compromising the great flavors ofMexican food. If you want some great food and ambiance this is it!!! Read more
Only had some simple tacos with shredded chicken, frijoles, lettuce, and diced tomatoes, but really enjoyed the food. The... Tamarindo Margarita was also quite good. Read more
This was our first time back to Mesa Mercado since Covid struck. There was a light crowd on Saturday at 5 PM. The... hostess/bartender greeted us nicely. We chose to sit at a table and have a drink while waiting for our meal to be prepared totake home. My daughter chose the house margarita which was tasty and refreshing. I went with one of their several beers on tapand chose the Golden Road Mango Cart, a very flavorful mango wheat beer. I have been a fan of wheat beers since firstintroduced to them in Germany back in the day. The atmosphere in the restaurant is very festive and inviting. We enjoyed ourwait. As for our menu selections that evening, I will remember the next time that not everybody makes the same item the sameway. That said, my carnitas were good, but not what I expected. I could have done without the rice. The beans were delicious,but the serving was the size of a small salsa container, not enough! We did not receive a single tortilla with our meal, whichsurprised me. Who does not eat tortillas with such meals? We would have gladly paid extra, if we had been told. That said, mywife grilled up some delicious corn tortillas when we got home! My wife had wanted a chili verde burrito, but it was not on themenu, so we just got her a serving of chili verde. We did not receive the side salad we were told she would get. My daughterwent with the carne asada and enchilada plate which was delicious! A nice portion of meat grilled nicely. We shared thedeconstructed guacamole which was delicious as it always was, but not big enough a serving for three as were told. It would beokay for one, maybe two. The chips and salsa were very tasty. There were plenty of chips for the three of us. The salsa servingsare smaller. I would recommend you choose your favorite and buy extra! The service was great! The food was of the highestquality and very tasty! The next time, we will do a better job ordering the right menu items and if we take it to go, make surewe ch Read more
We did girls weekday lunch here and I was beyond happy with the service, the atmosphere, the menu which offers vegan options as... well as a kids menu, the portions and most importantly the food. Do not pass up the quacomle/chips appetizer. Freshly made atyour table served with fresh tortilla chips. They have salads, combo plates, even shrimp tacos. They also have a full bar aswell as indoor and outdoor dining Read more
I love this place and will be a regular. We went on a Sunday night and it wasn't too busy at all. Our waiter was fantastic and... helped us pick out drinks and food. We all loved our food. The only thing I didn't love was the enchiladas but the tacos werefantastic. Read more
