The coffee is made in house and you can clearly tell the difference in quality and freshness.

I love el merkury! I had the elote salad which was delish and taquitos. My partner got the pupusa taquito combo with the cheesy rice and plantain chips. We LOVED! The service was great too. I especially loved the squash taquito and I’m not even vegetarian.

Vegetarian options: Squash taquitos, jackfruit taquito
