ORIGINAL FAMILY RECIPES WITH CALI-MEX AND OLD-WORLD MEXICAN FLAVORS. Mercado came to life after looking past the obvious icons of contemporary culture — going as far back as the Aztec culture that gave us maíz and chiles and the foundation of everything we all enjoy today as Mexican cuisine.

Pete’s Edge District the goto spot for quesadillas, burritos and street tacos, it’s a fast-paced outdoor eatery that also includes a full liquor bar. What to expect when you arrive:
Place your order at the “Order Here” window and pay. In a couple of minutes you pick it up at the “Pick-Up” window. Take your order with you or sit at a table in our ample, covered outdoor dining area. Our indoor/outdoor bar offers additional seating and serves as a convenient point for ordering or reordering soft drinks, beer or wine. Want to have Mercado cater your event?

Same margaritas. New glassware. We wanted something that matched the Mercado West vibe a little better, and we think these do the trick.

So... what do you think? Are you loving the new look? 👀

Swing by this weekend, grab your favorite marg, and let us know if the glow-up gets your approval. 🌮✨
