Quiet, unassuming spot for authentic Latin American cuisine. We came for the papusas revueltas, which were excellent - served hot with plenty of melty cheese. The chicken tacos were also seasoned perfectly. Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Latino food! We will definitely be back. They also have a small store section selling Latin American groceries. read more

Great people, great food selection, and prices. Portions could have been a little but more but it was fine. Thank you!!

My boyfriend and I decided to try this Latin, El Salvador cuisine restaurant. It wasn't very busy in there but the waiter seemed busy...4 stars for customer service because the waiter and supposedly Cheff don't really tailor meals...They didn't want to add avocados to my dish...But the food here is delicious. 5 stars for the tasty meals. The Cheff's recipes are fantastic. The restaurant isn't big but the decorations are interesting. My boyfriend tried the Plato Salteado with shrimps. The Cheff listened to my boyfriend and took out the bell peppers from the meal. That was very nice. My boyfriend ate everything and enjoyed it. I tried the Yuca Vegetariana. I grew up eating fried yucca. It's like a mild, slightly salted potato. I find them very yummy. I also ordered 3 cheese and beans pupusas. The cabbage that comes with the pupusas was surprisingly sweet and not spicy. I really adore this version. The way my family does it is different but I enjoyed this restaurant's version. The pupusas were superb! The cheese is sweet and super cheesy. The Horchata drink I had was good too. I will definitely come back to this restaurant to try more items. read more

The tortilla soup was excellent. As were the quesadillas. Polite service. Clean cafe and washrooms. Very reasonable prices. Closed Sunday and Monday. read more

Mercadito Latino is a small family owned restaurant. Since it's a small family restaurant, it's never well-staffed, hence, the service is relatively slow. Even though the restaurant feels like it's a hole in the wall, I keep on going back because they serve the BEST Latino food in the City! The food is nothing but excellent! I can honestly tell you that Mercadito is significantly much better than La Fiesta Cafecito if you're debating between the two places. If you are looking for an authentic restaurant, this is the place! Here are my food recommendations: 1) Sopa de Tortilla (Tortilla Soup) 2) Tacos des Res (Beef Taco) - My Go-to for entree 3) Pupusas - my Significant Other's Go-to for entree 4) Corn Tamale (appetizer) 5) Quesadilla des Res - They serve the BEST quesadilla ever! Only if I can eat 10 meals in one seating, I would order everything off the whole menu! Overcall, this restaurant is highly recommended! Attire: casual read more

Really amazing food. It was so fresh and so perfectly done. We had beef tacos and quesadillas and both were absolutely amazing. Will definitely be back here again and again. read more

Mercadito Latino - Oh my wow. So good. - Mexican Near Me - Winnipeg, Manitoba

Great little restaurant and Mexican/Salvadorian food supply shop. Felt cozy. Food was delicious, we had Pupusa and chicken tacos. Very authentic. Note, his card reader does not accept cards from outside Canada but there is an ATM at a bank a very short distance away. read more

Delicious food... every time we try something new we are not disappointed. Our top favs include the tortilla soup, pupusas and yuca con chicharrón. Everything is made fresh to order. Not the ideal place if you are in a rush or in a large group wanting all your orders out at the same time but it's definitely worth the wait. read more

Okay been hunting for a good Mexican restaurant and I think we have found it! Yes a little pricy but cheaper than Modern Taco Company. We recommend having the sweet corn tamales, just like the ones they sell in Los Angeles! Yum! Unfortunately, they don't have a house salsa. read more

Small place with amazing cuisine. Fresh and delicious. Be prepared that service can be a little on the slow side but it is more than worth it. read more

Very tasty and I got my order fairly fast. If I lived in the city I would definitely take Spanish lessons here. Absolutely will return.

Great place to find all your Latin product needs from menudo to fresh Salvadorain food. The family that owns the place are really nice, mom does all the cooking and she is fantastic! The pupusas are delicious! read more

Great food. I enjoy this place, and would send any of my friends there without hesitation. The beef tacos are the star of the menu. The pupusas are also good. One downfall is that they don't have a liquor licence. read more

Good food, and good value. The best part is the market - they have hard to find items that are really worth the trip for...and you might as well eat while you're there! read more

Just had lunch there, we felt like we were in a little sidewalk restaurant in Mexico. The food was excellent and authentic staff was attentive and friendly. Definitely going back. read more

Sadly horrible service. Took over an hour to get apps. Good food but really not worth the wait, especially since the service staff was sitting behind the till texting. Rude and slow service negates any good flavors. Too bad. read more
