Continues to be one of my favorite Mexican restaurants! I always get the Barbados taco sald and a couple tacos. If you're feeling hungry go for the chorizo quest dip, but the chips and salsa are delicious!!

Great classic tex mex style place that seems out of place amongst overpriced, neglected chains downtown. Highly recommend for the price. Enchiladas are amazing

Sat at bar for dinner. The drinks were good. The food was also good. I had the enchiladas. Although they were more like a soft taco than the traditional enchiladas I've had before. the staff was friendly and the service was good. I will be back next time I'm in the area.

The food was great and the house Margarita was the absolute best I have had. I have visited numerous Mexican restaurants across the country and this establishment has the best house Margarita of them all. If you are in the area you have to try Taqueria Mercado.

Awesome spot for a fast lunch, lunch specials are $11 and you can do combinations. All come w rice and beans. Chicken fajita lunch special ($14 fyi) was still a generous portion with 4 tortillas included. I was super stuffed after, can eat half and take half home next time!

We had a party of 10 while in town for a work event; stopped in for lunch and we had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious, service was fast and excellent, and a overall great experience.I will definitely be a returning guest.

I have been a regular at Taqueria Mercado (aka "TM3") for the past 10+ years and the place never disappoints! The food, service, and ambiance is always on point and it seems to constantly be busy, which is a breath of fresh air for a downtown Cincy restaurant. Keep doing what you're doing TM3 and we're thankful to have you as a downtown Cincy staple establishment!

A mellow Sunday evening meal to close out the weekend. The restaurant was well staffed and ready to serve towards the end of the day. I was impressed that all of the dishes were well seasoned and prepared carefully enough to allow for the flavors of all ingredients to stand out individually while blending for excellent taste. We enjoyed the tamales and enchiladas. Todo está muy rico.

Great place. Food was amazing. House margaritas even better! Go! Edited to include: one of the house specialties was right up my alley but included an allergen. They made it without the allergen for me. And wow - bartender service was just awesome.

The food was phenomenal! I am an authentic Mexican so I tend to be picky with my food. This place met all the expectations. Everything was delicious, but if you’re a sizzling fajita fanatic, and you’re eating with another person, try the fajitas for two. It’s very well served! I honestly loved it. I will be back!
