great if they're open We love the food at el burrito mercado, but beware they are not always open until 9pm like the sign says. We arrived at about 8:20 on a Sunday night and the mercado was already closed.
Disappointment numero uno... – We were looking to give some out of towners a treat at an authentic Mexican Restaurant. But... 1) We made reservations, but they weren't honored. Apparently the person answering the phone doesn't know what's going on. 2) We were told we could eat at the cafe part of the market, but NOT told that we couldn't order beer or wine there, until it was too late. 3) The food was cold. 4) When one of our guests asked for guacamole she was told there wasn't any (what!!!? at a Mexican restaurant?)

Fantastic Authentic Mexican The food at El Burrito is mouth-watering, and the portions are very generous (I could never eat an entire burrito in one sitting). I usually take it to go, but sitting in the cafe makes for good people-watching. I suspect that Spanish speakers might get better service, but I've never been disappointed or hungry after visiting El Burrito. I think the prices are very reasonable too.
TOO EXPENSIVE This store is severely overpriced! The cafe is also overpriced and you get very small amount of food for the cost. If you want to buy mexican grocery products go to BuyMore on Payne ave - if you want to eat good authentic mexican food go to El Campo Tacos on Arcade St in St. Paul - don't go to El Burrito!
Fabuloso Great Latino market on the westside of St. Paul across the river from downtown (actually south). They carry a wide range of grocery products from Latin America or that are used in Latin American dishes. They also carry some planters, furniture, candles, and pinatas made in Mexico. They have a nice selection of Latino music artists and a great bakery and deli with seating. Check out the great mural on the west side of the building. The shoppers and the workers are very friendly and fluently speak both Spanish and Eng... read more
Speak Spanish and get preferential treatment.. – I used to enjoy this place, but lately the staff have been shorting the portions on "Gringo" guests. Seeing the exact same thing being served to the person in front of me, but with larger portions, just because this person is Latino. I speak Spanish and the things the cooks and servers tell each other (in front of the customer no less!) about the person ordering is shocking! Rude and obnoxious behavior. I only went back to this joint on the insistance of those in my eating par... read more
Amazing authentic Mexican food. This place is great there is a market, deli, fast food, as well as sit down full menu service. My daughter and I sat down at El Cafe. Our server quickly brought us chips and a salsa verde. It was hot just like I like it. The guacamole was fresh and wonderful. I had the tamale plater and it was great. The best I have had since living in AZ. It was so good after we were finished I went to the deli and purchased 6 tamales and a container of pico de gillo, as well as the salsa verde. The service w... read more
Ethnic grocery store! This is the perfect place to shop for latin food and products. There are spices, drinks and groceries that you won't find anywhere else. The staff is helpful and know their way around the store. Prices are normal except for soem US products. Theres also a bakery that serves up fresh breads every day and the occasional cheap day old breads.
