I had the CJ Plate (one brisket taco, one cheese enchilada, queso, rice, and beans. It was delicious and the margaritas are great. I ordered the homemade bread pudding to go and it’s the best bread pudding I’ve ever had. On top of all the good food, the staff were really friendly and attentive.
We were looking for a lunch spot after visiting the LBJ Library and a security guard there highly recommended this place. The chips and salsa that we munched on while waiting for our entrees were top notch. The shrimp tacos and brisket tacos were good, not great. Service was pleasant and attentive.
Ordered the brisket tacos. Was delicious!! Jeremiah was waiter fast service. Went in a Sunday between 3 and 4pm. Wife had shrimp diablos. Said wasn't that spicy but taste great. We will be back!!
We had such good service here and the food was good at a reasonable price! I would recommend walking here if you paid parking at the Bullock Texas History Museum. This was a great recommendation from an employee at the museum and we were so glad we took his advice. It is a family friendly restaurant
We had a good lunch here with a nice waiter who was friendly and curious about us coming all the way from Sweden. It was a kind of slow day so not many other customers and we got our food quickly. The waiter was nice enough to let us try a fried pepper since we said we liked spicy food.
Amazing food and great staff! Their salsa is delicious and as a local Texan, us a big compliment. Taco salad is bomb and huge for only $10
Ordered Fajita enchiladas for lunch. The place is clean, wait staff was attentive, lunch did not take long to be delivered, prices are reasonable and food was good.
The best queso I've ever tasted! Phillip's special queso was unbelievable! Margarita mix is made in house and the food is fresh and delicious. Amazing Verde enchiladas, and Salsa is on point with spice and flavor. Service is great as well. Definitely go here!
The place has a nice atmosphere.place is clean.the staff is really friendly and helpful.they keep refilling are drink and chip &salsa.the food looks great.Most of the items are pretty expensive.but overall it was all good.
Very friendly staff. Quick service. Nice atmosphere. Live music some nights. Oh yes, great food too.
Awesome happy hour Taco Bar as always!!!!! Very tasty margaritas!! Excellent service!!
Wonderful food, staff, and atmosphere. Good lunch specials too!
We always enjoy El Mercado! The food, drinks, and service are awesome!
The pork burritos were outstanding! Both the red and the green sauce were good. The enchilada with cheese and meat sauce was not good. Seemed like stadium food with nacho cheese and canned chili. The crispy beef taco was pretty good. Good portion size and excellent service. Would definitely recomme
Loved the Tacos. Great local Austin chain. Close to my hotel and the AT&T center. That happy hour Margarita was great.
