Merkado Mexican Grill & Bar - Fairfax

Make sure to have your favorite ride-share service ready to go and on standby. When dining at Merkado, rest assured that there are no bad choices on the menu – every dish is fantastic and comes highly recommended. Be sure to snap plenty of pictures and have some Pedialyte ready for later because at this Mexican Grill and Bar, La fiesta no para!

I made reservations and the place was closed out of business

The staff here are pretty cool. Food and drinks are great.Went there again recently, and their food was super bland. The drinks are still pretty good

My piña colada and old fashion was good, however it was overpriced for sure. My Paloma did not taste like a Paloma. My parrillada for two was not worth the $50. Looked like something I bought from the frozen section at Walmart. Not only that….my side was Korean fried rice. I love Korean food but are you serious? My taste spuds were confused. This was at the FAIROAKS mall location. The room was cold too. I don’t know. Wasn’t a fan at all. Oh yeah…forgot. The shrimp sucked too.

Hello, everything was excellent with the food, but I didn't like that they have a minor working and using illegal documentation,And that minor treats clients very badly, I think her name is Julieth Rodríguez.

Great food and drinks

food was delicious and the atmosphere is amazing! Very inviting and really cool decor. Our sever was Brian and he was great and understood the menu and events going on. I highly recommend

Great spot. Mole was fresh and delicious. Nothing was over salted. Tacos stayed crispy. Great alternate to Señor Tequilas.

Merkado was a pleasant surprise. The food was excellent, the meat was grilled to perfection and the sauces on the side so you could decide how much you wanted. The service was friendly and efficient.

the best mexican tomahawk in fairfax. great service melany. thank u

Lovely actitud from my server today Ms. Julieth was respectful, attentive, food was amazing, drinks the best I have try so far in a Mexican restaurant!!!

The service was excellent and Juliet she is so kind attention was excellent she took great care of us the delicious food

It’s sad that this restaurant is not so visible for people, but I can say my experience there was amazing Julieth make sure everything was perfect, food was great, drinks amazing definitely coming back for Friday night live music!

Not Mexican but more so Salvadorian. Food was disgusting, cold and brought in waves. Margaritas tasted of soap. Overall "HORRIBLE". Would never return nor recommend to anyone. A disaster in Fairfax.

Some of the worst food and service in the area — Taco Bell has better food ? The live band is excellent, but the DJ is meh (just like their drinks ?). Definitely eat somewhere else before and then come over to dance. Get there before 10 PM; otherwise, they have a ridiculous $15/per person cover ??‍♂️
