I came here last night, after having this place on my list to try for a while.i was not happy with the way my enchiladas looked, but I took a bite and didn’t want to judge how they looked and they were just as bad as they looked.We sent them back and got double fajitas and those were actually pretty good. The drink was my favorite thing.However I would not recommend getting the enchiladas, if this is how they are normally. Many people I’ve shared the photo with have said they usually don’t look like that, and they don’t even believe me when I say it came from this restaurant.That would be where I would just like to leave a helpful note of how important it is to make sure the food is good and don’t give a customer something that is not your best.I won’t be going back to give this place another try.

Overall, I don't recommend Mercado Juarez. In my opinion, it's a restaurant whose time has come and gone. The service was spartan, but that's not to say bad. The restaurant was mostly empty for peak dinner service, and there was only one waiter for the entire great room we were seated in. We received very good service, though I had my concerns at the beginning when the glasses of water and Margaritas were very slow arriving. The food was fine, not bad, but well below average. The fajita dish was lively and fresh with brightly colored vegetables. It was a good choice. The enchilada platters, unfortunately, were unremarkable. The best way to describe the flavor of the ground beef is that it reminds me of leftovers; made fresh yesterday. Though it probably wasn't leftovers, the food didn't strike me as fresh. The taco also suffered from the same problem as the enchiladas. The salsa was okay, but it seemed a bit lowbrow to serve it in disposable plastic cups like we're at a sports bar. Overall, the menu options are tried, tired and generally uninspired. There's at least a dozen better Tex-Mex restaurants in the immediate area including Pancho's Mexican Buffet just a few miles away that shamefully would have been a better choice for dinner. The ambiance is colorful and reminiscent of old Spain or traditional Mexico. It's the best part of the entire visit. But, the pink exterior looks like they found a sale on paint back in 1970 and were too lazy to update it ever since. Because the restaurant was mostly empty of customers, the interior frescoes looked like they wanted to tell stories of the glory days of old. In short, I can't recommend this restaurant. It's not a bad experience, just certainly disappointing and left us thinking that we should have gone elsewhere.

Yesterday i was here to celebrate my sister's birthday at 5:15 pm, I've never had no complaints about anything, been coming here for years the host was very unpleasant, and very rude, everyone was very welcoming, and polite as usual, my waitress was excellent, as well as the food, that front host ugh was just awful!
