Checked out Mercadito's second restaurant on Ave B (between 11th and 10th) that opened just last week - called Mercadito Cantina. Its dubbed a "modern taqueria" and along with a full bar, they have a menu of appetizers, tacos, a few entrees and sides. Its set in a narrow and deep space, but is bright and lively with seating around the bar/kitchen and on high tables with stools. It was a great place for a casual dinner along with some drinks on a Tuesday night. The portions are bite sized, so be prepared to order many tacos if you're extra hungry. Sit at the bar to watch the kitchen in action and to get quick and friendly service.
What makes it good:
- Atmosphere and service
- Tasty Mini Tacos
Know before you go:
- Small portions
Recommended dishes:
- Tilapia tacos
- Beer battered shrimp tacos
- Guacamole and chips
