    Omg. Wow. Just wow. I've wanted to go to this place for a while now and finally made it. The decor. The vibes when you walk in like you walked into an enchanted forest. It's so insta picture worthy; you'll want to take a pic of everything. Once seated the next decision is to choose what to eat!! The pictures speak for themselves. The food was amazing. And The service was good too.

    Chicano Chicken
    Suri Y.

    The Chicano chicken was superb! Came here right after I landed and it was open later compared to other places that closed earlier and I was not disappointed with my meal and service. My server introduced me to the popular items on the menu as it was my first time and was very friendly. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and it was tender, not dry. I love the brussel sprouts is glazed with a different flavor and the addition of the queso was the cherry on top for me. I also like how the potatoes were thinly cut. I would definitely come back here and would probably try their tacos!

    The food here is amazing, comes out pretty quick too, hot and fresh tasting! The service is amazing too! Been 3 times so far and one server even remembered my name. Very kind super attentive, everyone seemed so happy to make sure you're enjoying yourself and I love that! The Ambiance gives date night, drink with friends, and solo time! Whatever the occasion it will fit! Come here! Enjoy the great service, the amazing food, and drinks to top it all off!

    Loved the chicken tacos for lunch, especially with a choro margarita. You order inside and can sit anywhere lots of shaded outdoor seating, ideal for warm days. Great food at a great price. I'll be back next time!

    Wet burrito
    Nelson M.

    I finally had a chance to come to this restaurant on the landing for lunch. The restaurant has a unique system where you order at the front and they give you a number and bring the food out to you. They will also fill cups of water for you if you don't order a beverage. I was a bit underwhelmed by the taste of my wet burrito. There was significant amount of rice and beans in the burrito and not that much protein. The Carne Asada in the burrito seemed to lack much flavor and was overpowered by the Spanish rice. At times I felt like I was just eating rice and beans. For myself I think that the meal was just OK but for the price you pay, you could probably get more authentic and flavorful Mexican food.

    I hadn't been to Mercado in a while and it was as delicious as ever! I had the #SquadGoals Jamaica Margarita and it was great -- a little sweet, a little smoky! We shared the Dip Trio and polished it off -- and it came with plenty of chips to enjoy all the dips with. For my entree I had the Chorizo Bolognese (yum!), our son got the perfectly-executed Carne Asada Fries, and my husband couldn't stop raving about the Al Pastor Pork Chop! Our server, Mackenzie, was friendly and helpful! Can't wait to go back!

    Ube Horchata

    This is my new favorite taco spot! I went here for lunch, and I'll definitely be back for more. We did two of the $10 taco combos and one Ube Horchata. Ube Horchata - $6 - This is a must get. It was so smooth and flavorful. Hands down the best horchata I've ever tasted, and probably the best you'll ever have too. I seriously need this recipe, hint hint, cough cough. They also have regular and strawberry. Get this, you won't be disappointed. 5/5 stars. Ernie's Fish Taco - Extra $2 - You get two fish portions, perfectly cooked, with a delectable spicy sauce on it. Now, I can handle about a medium spicy for most things, and this was nearing my limit of spiciness. If you can't handle spice, avoid this. If you're like me and can do medium, you definitely need a drink to offset the spice. Now, that being said, this was an amazing fish taco. Tortillas held up well, the taco was overflowing, and plenty of sauce. 5/5 stars. Chori-Queso - I was worried about this being too greasy, but it wasn't that way at all. The fried cheese kept the tortilla from soaking up too much grease (but really there wasn't much to begin with), and the chorizo had a good flavor. 5/5 stars. Carne Asada - Good flavor, wish it had another tablespoon of sauce, but it was still a good taco. Nothing dry or bland here. 5/5 stars. Cali AF - This was an interesting taco. It's like eating elote corn with chicken. I'm not a big fan of elote corn, but my boyfriend is, which is why he picked this taco. It's good, but you need to like elote. Chicken was tasty. This one definitely had plenty of sauce. 5/5 stars. Rice - It's good, but it's just typical rice you expect to get. This is by far the best taco place in town. Go here now. You must get the horchata.

    Cheers! I cannot believe that after so many visits to Mercado this is my first review. Anyway, let's get to it! Let me start by saying that while I enjoy Mercado very much, there are certain things that keep it from being my go-to, perfect place. Mostly this has to do with the prices. I will not shy away from paying what is due to establishments for exceptional dishes. Paying $15 for some meted cheese makes me a little mad. I happily ate all the melted cheese though. Come on, it's melted cheese in a little cast iron pan! It's the principle of the thing that bothers me. Great cocktails, great food! (With one small hiccup a few years ago when my daughters and I got sick from the chicken tinga...we have since become brave enough to go back) I don't want to bash Mercado. I think it's a special place with good food, great atmosphere and a perfect location. By why so expensive? I'll probably keep paying up. Melted cheese is really good.

    One word... Outrageous. Mercado is unarguably the best Mexican joint in FW. Marketed as Cali-Mex, this place is purely authentic... As good if not better than anything we've had in Mexico. When you walk in, the atmosphere doesn't disappoint... Trendy, lively, good music, and a friendly staff. But onto the food and drink... Their margaritas are exceptional (maybe the best of I've had) - We had the blood orange margarita, and it was fire... So good. This time around I got the tacos (carne asada, chicken tinga, and fish) and my wife got the chicken enchiladas; just outright ridiculous and insanely fresh/good food. To top things off, our server Gabby was exceptional... Super friendly, attentive, and timely. The best way I'll put it is this place is a party in your mouth and all of FW is invited... From management, to food quality, to service, Mercado does it right all the time.

    Chicken taco and rice

    I can't say enough about this place. From the customer service to the taste of the food everything was amazing. The decor is very cute. I ordered the Carne Asada fajita, my husband ordered the chicken Tinder, and my son ordered the tacos. I could hardly get a picture before he done the first one. We also had a side of guacamole, which was very fresh and also perfectly seasoned. Highly recommend.

    It is the Chicano Chicken

    The food is amazing and the menu is well crafted. Drinks great as well. Good service. Good ambiance, specially outside

    Not bad, both my friend and I loved it. I hope the main dish can be made with a little bit more spices.

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.

Large party, and family friendly! Overall, it's a solid spot for anyone craving reliable, delicious Mexican cuisine with great service.

As an avid lover of Mexican food, my boyfriend has been searching high and low for a place that he can frequent for a good meal. After trying a few other places, we decided to try Mi Parrilla on a whim after a long day at the local zoo. We walked into a lively interior, with ample seating and comfortable booths. Our waitress was friendly and prompt with checking on us before and after we ordered, and we were quickly settled in while waiting for our meals. I haven't had a lot of experience with Mexican cuisine, but I love birria and wanted to try that here; as for my boyfriend, he got a chimichanga. We were immediately impressed at the portion sizes when the food came out - everything looked amazing! And honestly, these are the best I've had so far. They were crisp, filled with meat and cheese, and so flavorful. My partner was also very satisfied with his food, saying that this would probably become his favorite spot in town. We'll definitely come back to try more of their enormous menu!
