The food is incredible and the people who work there along with the owners are very friendly and cordial ??. P.S. Open again please
Always tasty and always consistent. Thank you for bringing some diversity to the North Shore!
Excellent! Authentic Latin American food. The Carne Asada tacos are perfect. I travel here once a month. This will be my go-to spot. 5 stars with no hesitation.
The food here was amazing! Truely authentic. The staff was great and very attentive. Have mentioned this place to several people. It's a must try.
Stopped here for a quick dinner, had the beef soup and shrimp tacos . Both we were extremely delicious, our waiter was friendly and food was hot and came out fast.
Outstanding! This place makes me wish I lived in Covington so I could eat here more often. Soooo delicious and a pleasant atmosphere.

A true hidden gem in covington! Love the atmosphere and friendly service and love our waiter & owners. I come here a few times a week to enjoy good Hispanic foods from different countries i.e Honduras, D.R, Peruvian & Brazil to name a few. Dance lessons, good music and merengue bands are a plus :)??
I was so excited to find this authentic Latin Restaurant right here in Covington! The food was delicious and homemade, not like other restaurants in town.The flavors were amazing and fresh. I ordered the Al Pastor pork tacos which were marinated to perfection. Not to forget the delicious and all natural ingredient mango margarita…..yummy! I will definitely be back for sure!
This place is incredible! Chef Oscar has put together an amazing menu influenced by Latin American and Portugese cuisines. The flavors in every bite are simultaneously recognizable and new. We can't wait for their taco truck to cater our wedding. Check their schedules for live music.

Clean quick and delicious. The waitress also was super chill and lovely. Would go back. Amazing salsa.
The nachos were AMAZING!!! Love it
I am writing this sitting in my car because I was that impressed with El Mercado. I had not been here before but I am so glad to know it exists and I will be back often. The staff was incredibly friendly and kind and the food was fresh, fresh, fresh! I got the tacos Al pastor and basically inhaled them. They were also respectful and kind to my service dog and brought her a cup of fresh water. It may not seem like much to some people but as someone with a disability it means the world for people to be considerate and kind….especially to my service dog. ???? El Mercado has my business for life and I just texted about 15 people to tell them to visit. All before I have even left the driveway.
First time there and it did not disappoint us! The food was amazing and our server was absolutely wonderful. Definitely will make this a favorite place to go!
We have eaten here a few times now, and the food is consistently excellent. The flavors are “on point”, and the owner is friendly. If you are looking for good, inspired recipes that are not patterned after the typical mex/Tex mex fare, then give el Mercado a try.
