El Burrito Mercado - Mexican restaurant in St Paul - 175 Cesar Chavez St, USA

I can not say enough about out experience here last night! We had a party of 12 there especially for Mariachi night. The Mariachi was amazing and they made us feel so welcome and encouraged us to get up and dance with them! Our server, Jo Jo i think? Was amazing! Perfectly explained all the foods and drinks! Him and another employee went out of their way to help us get great group photos! Once outside for more photo ops we were then helped by one of the owners, Suzi I think to get more good shots! This was a great night for us and we will be back!

Great place but moderately overpriced for everything. The food looks good and it’s a cozy place. The marketplace has a lot of things that are unexpected. More virgin Maries than you can afford. This place is awesome because it’s huge.

Super tasty food, and great service. We loved being able to shop while we waited for our meal to be prepared.

Loved this restaurant! It was so good! The best part? This place has an incredible atmosphere inside and out. We sat inside because it was so hot out but their outdoor seating area is so cool. I’ve been told they even do mariachi and I want to go back to hear that. I ordered chilaquiles, hibiscus drink and a choco flan and it was all amazing. The worst part? Not much to add. Our waitress took a bit to come to us, especially after we were done eating but it was fine because we chilled and hung out for awhile and no one was rushing us or anything. We also got good street parking right next to the restaurant which was a bonus. The salsa that came with the chips were both super good by the way.

Great one stop shop for most groceries and especially any Latin/mexican foods. Been going here with my family since I was a child and it’s been amazing to see it grow and offer more and more for catering and grocery! My family owned a Latin restaurant and we relied on them for much of our specialty items. The gift shop is growing and I love checking out what’s new.

Just visited for the first time and was blown away. The food was incredible, the staff was very friendly and helpful and the atmosphere was upbeat and fun. I would highly recommend. We will be back.

The cafe used to be one of the greatest dining experiences in Saint Paul. You could engage with the people making the food. The cafeteria style layout made it possible to visually browse the amazing food they made, which was the best way to explore what you wanted and discover new possibilities. It was vibrant, human, and one of the hearts of the city. And then they killed it. The buried the cooks behind a dead wall. And now instead of engaging with people, you engage with iPads to order the food. You can’t see the food anymore. It went from being lively, warm, and amazing to dead, cold, and depressing. They really should recognize the tragedy of the error and go back to how it was. Really, they should.

This one was a surprise for me, landing in Minneapolis wanted something delicious for breakfast. Somehow this place popped up, and let me tell you, I was shocked to see how good it was. Only had time for one thing, so I asked what their specialty was and they told me the birria tacos. Amazing, very tender beef, crunchy tortilla. I can go on and on, but it was very delicious. Talking to the locals, they told me that I need to go through the menu to truly enjoy this place. Parking is a little tight, but it wasn’t hard to find on the street. The restaurant is located inside the neighborhood market, which has plenty of cool stuff. Prices are reasonable for the amount of food you receive. Extremely happy I found this place, hoping to come back to St. Paul again to try the rest of the menu.
