“Such a cute little diner where I wouldn't expect one. My partner and I stumbled upon this place while looking for a Sunday date while I was in town. We ordered large milkshakes, nachos, I ordered the shrimp quesadillas, they ordered the brunch combo. Let me tell you that was so tasty! We could barely touch our actual meal after half the milkshake and almost finishing the nachos. The staff was excellent and were super accommodating even though we had to wait a little. Do not walk away from a place like this just because of a wait. The milkshakes were gorgeous and the food was enough for two meals each while staying affordable. I absolutely recommend this cute little diner.“

“The food is amazing, let me tell you how flavorful the shrimp was.. I only ate one empanada and shrimp taco and was full but it didn't go to waste believe that I had to share this with the fam. I'm giving this place a solid 8.7. Only issue is that they only accept cash and they close at 8, but they have very good customer service. Look at the plating presentation even tho it's a to go order they take their time out for each order.“

Our favorites include the homemade tamales, guacamole, mole chicken and of course the decadent cheese enchiladas....who am I kidding? Everything on the menu is delicious. If this review doesn't convince you that they serve the best Mexican food in the state, the cars lined up around the corner will.“

“I can't say what I like best, because it is all delicious. I usually get the enchiladas huertenas because I can't decide if the mole, red sauce, or green sauce is better; they are all equally wonderful. So are their tender, flavorful tamales. even their chips & salsa are a cut above. Pickup during the pandemic is fast and painless, which we appreciate.“

“My current top hidden gem for amazing and authentic Mexican food. Hidden in La plaza del Mercado, this spot has the most amazing tripe soup, where the tripe was properly cleaned, no funky taste/smell, cooked perfectly tender. Great caldo de res as well, the meat was tender and had a strong beef flavor, soup was light and refreshing and the veggies provided a nice natural sweetness and the squash was incredible inside. Their tacos are great as well and their pricing is a bargain and their portions are quite good.“

“I tried their breakfast burrito and churros. The burrito was flavorful and had a good amount of food. I think they should give sauce with the burrito. Very nice young lady who took my order. The churros were delicious. This is take out only, I recommend calling ahead to put your order in. As most items are made to order.“

“The tacos are fire!!! Everything is fresh and flavorful. 100000% enjoyed the quality of the food and pleasant service. The people running this truck KNOW what they are doing. However, my only reason for not giving 5 stars is that I find them to be pricey. There are other options in the city that are just as great at a more reasonable price. I still highly recommend them for the quality food but the cost adds up super quick. Last time we had a craving and stopped here, they wanted to charge $35 for 10 tacos. Another taco spot I love charges $25 for the same 10 tacos. For the prices, I'd only go here if I'm buying for just me or in a pinch for something fresh and healthy.“

“We were in Hartford for the weekend, and were hungry for lunch as we were heading out of town. We looked for something interesting on yelp, and found the Mercado. We went in, and went to the last counter down the line, as they had these amazing Columbian Tamales. I had never seen such big and round tamales. They are to die for. Perfectly cooked, well spiced, and just simply delicious. Went very well with the fried plantains. Very much enjoyed.“

“Agave is one of my favorite bars in Hartford! There are so many things to love. First, I love their happy hour specials (both food and drinks). Second, I love their Sangriarita and any flavored margaritas! They will even let you mix flavors, I recommend mixing mango and guava! Third, I love their chicken chimichanga, it's my go to meal every time. Fourth is their endless chips and salsa. Fifth, it's a great restaurant or bar to go to before or after any event at the XL Center. Sixth, I enjoy their decor, it has a great welcoming atmosphere, including fun music. Last but not least, they love any excuse to celebrate. They will have drink specials for days such as national tequila day which are always fun to attend. Check this place out for yourself!“

“I'm grateful that a random craving and Google search led us to this lovely establishment! It is such a cute spot!! Everyone is friendly, full of smiles and jokes!! But y'all... THE FOOD..... THE. FOOD!! Is so good and flavorful. You don't even need the house made salsa, guac and sour cream but they sure don't take away from how fresh and delicious everything is. It really feels like someone's abuelita was in the kitchen working some magic. I tore those tacos up when we got home. Sorry I was so involved with my tacos that I forgot all about taking a picture. They hooked us up!!! I'm already planning a return trip!“
