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 andthe service can't be beat. Read more
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 tipwas 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 weneeded a box to go, but he was really nice! We also got a free dessert since we were first time customers - really tasty flanwith a bit of infused alcohol in it maybe? Would come again. Read more
This restaurant is definitely a vibe and ideal for larger parties. The music play list is great (maybe too loud) and the food... was good! Highly recommend ordering the guacamole and Carne Asada! Read more
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 enjoyedeverything 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. Read more
Food was incredible, tried 3 different dishes with my friends and each was delicious and well presented. The spicy margaritas... were also quite good Read more
The Mercados are one of my favorite restaurants in LA. The quality and flavor of their food is unparalleled. You can understand... that from the plain chips and guacamole. They are to die for. My favourite dish of theirs is the carnitas. I am mindblown everysingle time by the tenderness and flavor of the meat. Even their tortillas are incredible. To top it off they have someincredible and innovative cocktails. Super highly recommended. Read more
Excellent Happy Hour here on a Tuesday . Really glad I came here . Got a Mercado Margarita from the HH menu for $8 but the... special Guava margarita was really special ! Get that one , it has a depth of flavor .Get the grilled fish tacos appetizer . Besure to ask for the grilled one, it had a delicious charcoal grill taste as did my salmon main dish with good mashed potatoes.This place is a cut above the rest Get the flan for dessert , it had a strong rum sauce on it . This thing was delicious ! Thewaiters are really nice too. Definite 5 stars for the service . Read more
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 shrimptacos ($13) - tacos de pescado ($18) Service really depends on your server… but the food was very flavorful and everythingwas seasoned well.
