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 of Mexican food. If you want some great food and ambiance this is it!!!

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 and very fresh. The guacamole is so fresh and delicious. Must go and will definitely go back.

Out family absolutely loved this restaurant. What a beautiful hidden gem. First I have to say that the esthetics of this restaurant takes you to Mexico. The drinks are treasures with authentic flavor and flair. But the crown jewel is the food. You can definitely tell that the chef chose the menu to give you a great variety of foods from all of Mexico. This is now one of our families favorite restaurants. I would highly recommend this restaurant if you are looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion. Thank you Mesa Mercado for the wonderful hospitality and Devine flavors.

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 to take home. My daughter chose the house margarita which was tasty and refreshing. I went with one of their several beers on tap and chose the Golden Road Mango Cart, a very flavorful mango wheat beer. I have been a fan of wheat beers since first introduced to them in Germany back in the day. The atmosphere in the restaurant is very festive and inviting. We enjoyed our wait. As for our menu selections that evening, I will remember the next time that not everybody makes the same item the same way. 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, which surprised me. Who does not eat tortillas with such meals? We would have gladly paid extra, if we had been told. That said, my wife grilled up some delicious corn tortillas when we got home! My wife had wanted a chili verde burrito, but it was not on the menu, so we just got her a serving of chili verde. We did not receive the side salad we were told she would get. My daughter went with the carne asada and enchilada plate which was delicious! A nice portion of meat grilled nicely. We shared the deconstructed guacamole which was delicious as it always was, but not big enough a serving for three as were told. It would be okay for one, maybe two. The chips and salsa were very tasty. There were plenty of chips for the three of us. The salsa servings are smaller. I would recommend you choose your favorite and buy extra! The service was great! The food was of the highest quality 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 sure we check our order before we leave. We will be back!

I and seven of my friends ate at Mesa Mercado yesterday. When I first arrived, the table set for eight was filthy–crumbs and chips on each of the pads on the bench and each of the chairs. I had to flag down a helper to wipe down the seats.

The shrimp tacos were perfect! My partner was a bit disappointed because they don’t have burritos on the menu and he said the portions were small, but other than that, it was great. A bit pricy. $65 for 2 entrees, guacamole and no drinks. The guacamole was delicious, but you have to mash it yourself. I worked at a Mexican restaurant for years in the past and we mashed the guac for customers. The decor is fantastic, the place is beautiful.
