“ Man, Merida did not disappoint. Walked in with a party of 7 and was seated immediately, no wait time. The first section was full so we had the whole second section to ourselves. Food was good, fast, fresh and plenty to take home. Everyone was full and satisfied. First time visiting and will recommend. ”
“ Stopped in 4/22/24 @11am with my mother, it was my first time visiting. I really wasn't hungry so I ordered 1 taco, the big breakfast taco... I didn't think nothing much of it till it showed up lol. My mother ordered the chicken fajita taco lunch special. All was good and the portions were great. Can't forget the fresh salsa and chips which was still hot when we got it. Thank you for everything. We'll be back for sure. ”
“ Went for brunch yesterday around 11 and both the parking lot and restaurant were fairly full. However I parked on the street without a problem and walked in and was told that our party of 2 getting seated would be quick but the food could take up to 30 minutes. I got the Merida Special and it was delicious with lots of cochinita pibil! I believe it took less than 20 minutes so it didn't feel like a long wait. The pina colada was also tasty and the service was friendly so overall it was a good brunch spot! ”
“ This place NEVER disappoints. I can ALWAYS count on a scrumptious breakfast . This is definitely a hidden gem. I ordered the JUMBO breakfast taco. This taco can feed 2 people. You only need 1 taco to be satisfied. I highly recommend everyone to at least try once and you will not be disappointed. ”
“ Super friendly place with fast and efficient service. The portions were very generous, so much so that we all went home with doggy bags. Specially recommended: alambres al carbon (shish kebab). ”
“ Everything was Great as always. Well worth the drive downtown to experience to Mexica food at it's best And the flour tortillas are made by hand and NOT for a mix. Truly original. Always buy a dozen to bring home. Thank you so much ”
“ Great food, huge portions, low prices. We tried the huachinango and the cochinita pibil and both were delicious. Love the tortillas too. Will be returning! ”
