Out on the Town: Mercadito

Sadly, Abby will be leaving us to travel in South America for a few months. Although we will miss her dearly, her departure was a good excuse to get together and eat delicious food. Abby chose Mercadito, a Mexican ceviche and taco restaurant on 11th and B. We were going to have the $30 tasting menu, but then we discovered that on Mondays they have all you can eat tacos for $23/person. We definitely got our money's worth! The tacos are small, but we ate plenty. We had tacos with shrimp, mahi mahi, pork, beef, chicken, and vegetables.


The tacos were incredible, particularly the shrimp and mahi mahi. They also make unbelievable margaritas and mango mojitos. Be sure to call ahead if you are in a large group as they are very particular. We all had to agree whether to get the tasting menu or the all-you-can-eat. They wouldn't let even one person deviate. Otherwise the service was very good and the atmosphere nice. I would definitely recommend it on a Monday night!
