It’s a nice big area and the tables are spread out so you have your privacy.
The food and service was good. The flan however was very disappointing.

The food was absolutely delicious—the enchiladas and potato tacos were especially good. The servers were very friendly, and the ambience was lovely. The desserts, however, were the highlight for me. I tried Mercado Pot De Crème. Highly recommend checking it out!

Honestly might be one of the best sit down Mexican restaurants I’ve been to. We went on a Tuesday, and it wasn’t that busy but that atmosphere was calm and intimate. There were still some big groups around us but it never felt loud and the tables are small but it still was cozy and slightly elevated.
It was me and a friend so we ordered 2 tacos from the Taco Tuesday deals. The chicken taco and the spicy pulled pork. The chicken was honestly so good. It tasted like shawarma chicken; juicy and packed with flavor. The spicy pulled pork also packed in a lot of flavor. They also had a special of the day for $10 which was a blue corn tortilla quesadilla. We also got the Mercado nachos with spicy salsa (wasn’t too spicy). All of that ran us to about $25 for each of us. Every single bite from this place was sublime. Their plating is simple but adds to their vibe of authenticity. Will definitely be back here.

The most delicious Mexican food in a town full of amazing Mexican cuisine. The ambiance is cozy and lively. The mole was the best ever. A crowd-pleasing kids menu is available on request. We will definitely be back as a family and hopefully for a date night too. It would also be an amazing place to bring out of town guests.

Absolutely delicious, the food was an incredible celebration of taste. A true feast for the eyes and the soul. The new extension of the restaurant feels like a vacation zone, transporting you far away from Berkeley. With great service, generous offerings, and reasonable prices, it’s a must-visit spot to experience. We love to come hear for

I’ve been wanting to try this place out for some time and finally was able too. The decor was cool in the new extended section of their tequila store. There is an upstairs area for seating. We started with the guacamole and chips and they were good, but some of the chips were stale. The beet salad was okay, but I liked the dressing. The al pastor tacos were also okay. The al pastor was not as juicy and flavorful. The vibes were cool, but the food that day fell flat for me.

This place is now on our list of best Mexican food. The reviews are totally legit—everything we ordered was absolutely delicious!
We started with the guacamole and chips and chicken empanadas, both fantastic. The guacamole came with an extra spicy salsa that added the perfect kick. For mains, we had Carne Asada tacos, Carnitas tacos, and a beef enchilada. Every dish tasted incredibly fresh, and the meats were perfectly cooked. Even the enchiladas, which can sometimes feel heavy, were flavorful without being overwhelming.
The service was a perfect 10/10—friendly, attentive, and quick. The restaurant is spotless and beautifully decorated with a clean, modern Mexican vibe.
If you’re looking for an upscale yet authentic Mexican restaurant, this spot should be at the top of your list.

We stumbled upon this awesome Mexican restaurant by chance and were totally blown away.
The food was incredible, the service was super friendly, and our dishes came out really fast.
The value is unbeatable – highly recommend!
Quick tip: You have to try the quesadillas… they’re to die for!

Elevated Mexican fusion, in my old neighborhood, (or one of them, at least) serving really fresh high-end Mexican food with a homestyle touch.
Ceviche is to die for, platanos and mole are off the charts, And while the carne asada tacos were tender and fresh they didn’t have a lot of flavor for me, maybe the result of cooking for people around here with mild tastes. Excellent tequila and drink selection which I did not take advantage of this time around.
I’m not sure if it’s like this all the time but during this lunch crowd, you go up to the counter and order yourself and they bring stuff to your table, which is okay I guess. Staff is really nice and courteous, the place is spacious and nice inside place a nice place to get away from the noise of the world, and I think it would be great to bring a large party of people here. I’ll be back soon!

After touring around Berkeley we stopped into Mercado 925 for a lovely Mexican dinner.
We started with tamarind margaritas, guacamole & chips followed by their La Remolacha salad (greens, beets and mango in a basil dressing).
For mains, she had the Pozole Verde (hominy soup with chicken) and I had the vegetarian enchiladas de mole.
