Mercado is an ode to the flavors restaurateur Jesse Gomez and executive chef Jose Acevedo grew up with. It’s simple and honest food, filled with memories—think simple grilled elote, tamales made with fresh masa, chile relleno with mushroom-chorizo, and carnitas from chef Jose’s decades-old family recipe. Also on the menu: an excellent tequila list with over 70 varieties.
“We enjoyed our time at Mercado! Staff was very friendly, service was excelsior and quality of serce dishes was outstanding! The best Mexican we have had so far during our stay in LA. Totally recommend 👏🏽”
“We tried Mercado tonight and absolutely loved it! We came during happy hour and had no wait for a table. The prickly pear spicy margarita was one of the best I’ve had - super flavorful and strong. The carnitas nachos were amazing as well as the dos gringas tacos and enchiladas de pollo en mole. We’ll definitely be back!”
“We celebrated Christmas Eve at Mercado with a table of 10, and the experience was nothing short of perfect. The menu—particularly the tacos and seasonal specials—was outstanding. Exceptional service can be hard to find for large groups, but David was incredible and kept everything running smoothly. A five-star evening”
“OMG, Mercado is amazing 😍 !!! When my friend popped the idea of having Mexican food for lunch, I literally told her that I'm very picky with Mexican food as I used to work there for almost 3 years. But you know that, Mercado aced it !!! The fillet mignon taco was one of the most delicious tacos I've ever had, and the grilled octopus was so fresh and well-seasoned. Have to mention their guacamole 🥑, probably the best I've ever had, definitely will come again!!!”
“Mercado in Manhattan Beach is a great spot for Mexican food in a relaxed and lively atmosphere. The food is tasty and well made, with good-quality ingredients, and good margaritas. A solid choice for a casual dinner or drinks.”
