About this business
Expertly blending traditional Mexico with creative interpretations of local and seasonal ingredients is the inspiration behind Mercadito restaurants. Spanish for "little market ", Mercadito is modeled after the markets chef Patricio Sandoval shopped at while growing up in his native Mexico. His muse is the cuisine of the southern region but when mixed with his own style he creates authentic dishes with an added flair.

Great folks – My family doesn't eat prok for religous reasons and they accidentally served us someone else's pork tacos. They didn't mention what it was when they put it down and we ate it. They felt so bad they bought us dinner and appologized profusely. The chef even came out to say he was sorry. A wondeful, warm place with fantastic, authentic mexican food.
nice pork – I went to Mercadito with the girlfriend for a delicious Mexican Feast. We ordered two margaritas to start things off, and the one named La Playa was actually gross, it was overly spicy, dispite positive reviews. The food was good, the guacamole was delicious, as was the pork tacos, but the fish tacos and cerviche was simply OK. I am not sure if I just wanted more mexican-american rather than what thye consider authenic mexican so I might give it another shot...
Wow! – Absolutely fantastic! I highly recommend this nice little 'hole in the wall.' With their future expansion in mind, this 'little market' will certainly become a great attraction. If you haven't been here, go! The co-owners, Darin and Patricio, were perfect gentlemen and very active; they met with us after our dinner to ensure our satisfaction. Top-rated Mexican-South American food has just found its newest star!
A little slice of heaven – My boyfriend and I were absolutely amazed by this wonderful new restaurant. We had great margaritas, and a set of 3different guacamoles. The guac was SOOOO WONDERFUL, each of the 3 types had amazing flavor - absolute perfection. We also had steak tacos which were tender and delicious, and a side of rice and beans which was amazing. We were served by 1 owner, Darin Rubell who was so friendly and attentive. The 2nd owner, Chef Patricio Sandoval, personally came up to us, introduced himself and checke... read more
wonderfully flavorful – "Intimate" would be a nice way to put a little on the cramped side, though it didn't hinder my eating experience at all. The mango guacamole was out of this world, and the scallop ceviche has such a unique flavor that I literally can't get it out of my head and am already planning when I can get back to eat some. For some reason I was expecting your average Mexican eaterie. At first I was intimidated by the whole sharing concept, but overall I can't wait to go back.
WORTH A PEEK – I enjoyed the authentic mexican flavours and the cute little Ave. B environment. Prices are fair. Tacos are supurb. Margaritas are falvourful and fairly priced. Do not go if you are more then 2 people - Summer time should bring additional seating in the garden
Great ambiance, fantastic food – small place though, actually had the take out (which was very well prepared, packeaged nicely keeping the flaovrs apart and nothing was soggy) the first two times I tried to get a table, but finally sat there on Tuesday. We had a great dinner, reasonably priced, and the Fried Plantains were the perfect ending for a great meal. can't wait for the back to be open and expand the seating.
Mercadito is the BOMB!!! – My dining experience at Mercadito was great! Service, delish food and the tab were all to my expectations! It's a place that everyone will enjoy!
Everyone should eat at Mercadito!! – Top 3 things I look for in a restaurant: great food, fun atmosphere, and affordable prices... this restaurant accomplishes all of those things! The food is so fresh, creative, and delicious! The drinks are great, music is great, and it's totally affordable. I like it also how the staff walks you through the menu and makes suggestions. You can share everything, and you walk out feeling like you just tasted a million flavors in one meal. I've already been back a few times!
