I have 0 pictures, which speaks volumes to where my attention was. First, the stop work sign on the front door from the city. jajaja, perfecto!! Then all Latin patrons. Then the chrome apparatus they bring with bowls of sauces, nice. Hot, hotter, and prayers required for the last two. And finally, fresh squeezed juices, and tacos with several excellent, heavily loved and slow cooked meats and just the right toppings. (the lengua is impeccable) Nothing else. No chips. No quesadillas. No tequila. No nonsense. Don't go there, you'll ruin the ambiance for me.

They have a very short suite menu, but what I had was terrific I had a a salad with salmon on it and a lot of other veggies. It was terrific. The salmon was jerk, salmon, and the whole thing was a delicious repast. We had a appetizer of a couple bowls of their homemade chips. Unlike many places that don't salt them. These were salted just the right amount not too salty and I can't say anything bad about it. Our server was terrific and his name was Alex and the place is shaping up. I guess they just took it over from someplace else. The walls are a little bit bare needs a little more decoration and the ceiling is bare, but the chairs are very comfortable so it's an easy five star.

Now they have parced things down to basically tacos, a couple burritos, and one or two other items, all at more reasonable prices. This trip I tried the "wet" burrito, what most places would call "smothered". The sauces on top were lacking in both quantity and flavor. For the burrito itself I chose asada meat. It honestly might as well have just been a flour tortilla wrapped inside another flour tortilla for how bland it was. Nothing inside but the meat and rice and both offered nothing in terms of flavor. The location on the landing and a decent interior are the only things Mercado has going for it. House made chips were the highlight if there was one. Honestly not surprised to see their pizza concept next door folded. I doubt Mercado is far behind. I definitely won't ever be back.

I took a quick look at the Yelp reviews and decided to order carry out for lunch. I ordered a chimichanga with tofu, and a side of queso blanco. It isn't often that I see tofu on the menu at a Mexican restaurant so I was curious about it. It was excellent! The queso blanco was smooth and creamy with great flavor. The rice was flavorful but the beans were very salty. There are many vegetarian options here, more than most Mexican restaurants. The patio is large and beautiful. There were many people taking advantage of this warm and sunny early spring afternoon dining on the patio. The patio features approximately 20 tables, including several larger tables. Although I took my order to go this time I will plan to return with a group of friends to enjoy dining on the patio.
