   Got a reservation for Sunday brunch when they opened and it wasn't necessary! We started out with the house mimosas, the guava was great! We shared the Mac and cheese and elote and both were very tasty. I had the empanada platter and all three were delicious. The other two in my party enjoyed the divorciados. Service was quick and attentive. It was nice to get a different take on Sunday brunch and it not be overcrowded.

   Great service, good ingredients, but the food was not good. The salsa was just lemon, onions, and garlic with a hint of tomato. Everything else had way too much lemon.

   Really fun brunch with the family. They had Halloween bingo games and even my mom played. Plus the food was great.

   Rope Veija was very good. Tapas was just fair. Service was just fair. We ordered cocktails when the food was brought to the table, and it took so long for the drinks to arrive we figured they were forgotten. They finally arrived after the meal while we were waiting for the check. So, we enjoyed the drinks at the table without food after we paid the check. At least they weren't trying to rush us out of there.

   We've been to Bar Mercado many times but we had the best dinner and service on our last visit. We went on a Wednesday for dinner and had the pleasure of dining on the patio with our dogs. Our server (I can't remember her name, which makes me sad) but she was AMAZING! She was friendly, attentive and all around a pleasure to be around. Every employee from host, servers, food runners and so on were so friendly and made the experience top notch. We can't wait to come back and dine again!

    Everything about Bar Mercardo was great! Asha the bartender were so friendly and the drinks were delicious. The food was terrific - we had the trio dip (guac, queso, salsa) cauliflower, papas, street corn and the chicken, beef, and shrimp tacos (yep we're greedy :-) ... all delicious! Parking Situation BE AWARE - I parked in the paid parking and went over the time by 15 minutes, laughing and eating it just slipped my mind. I thought I'd be able to just pay for the overage but was booted instead. The writing on the parking sign about being booted if over on the time was so small I didn't see it. Needless to say there were 10 other cars booted as well. I guess i'm in the wrong business - i should be booting cars and making $750 an hour. Anyway I paid, had it removed and went on my merry way. Be sure to have the parking messages come to your phone not your email or PAY THE PRICE! It would be nice if the eateries would have a sign to this affect but anyway I had fun and will return.

    I enjoyed it, our waiter was super nice. Outside of that our experience was pleasant. I loved the fact that the tapas were actually shareable and not extremely tiny! Good for a group of fiends sharing food or family or date.

    Environment was less than clean, very worn, in need of a good clean up and a refresh. Food was just fair. For the price, it was only fair. For a $60 per person brunch it doesn't compare to other choices in Atlanta. Flavors were good but details like the smashed crispy potatoes--NOT crispy-great sauce though. Chicken- too much breading and dry and they forgot the strawberries, steak tasted aged but not in a good way, drinks--$15 for a bloody mary, really?

    Everything was very good except the cocktails. I’ve tried several different margaritas here. I’ve yet to find one I liked. Also, from the main dining area, the sound of the blender in the kitchen was annoying.

    Why restaurants continue to just have one person at the bar when they could be making so much money with two bartenders is a mystery. One bartender took 10 to 15 minutes to get drinks out. I know most places are understaffed but this is clearly a place that restaurants can make more money if they pushed out more product. Anyway, the food was good as we ordered the shrimp, pork, chicken and three or four ribeyes or good except one was extremely fatty and the meat overall was tough for all ribeyes. Was probably not ribeye, it was some other type of sirloin as ribeye would have been much more tender. Service at the table was okay, and he was trying but was having a hard time keeping up. The two shrimp entrees came out first and then the pork entre about 10 minutes later and then the chicken 5 to 10 minutes later and then four ribeyes came out about 15 minutes later and everybody was waiting, so about 30 minutes in between the 1st and the last meal being delivered was awkward.

    I don’t normally leave reviews because I usually enjoy anyplace I go. But this time want the case. I visited Bad Mercado for the first time. The host and my server were awesome. My food and drink was not. My first disappointment was watching the guy go from table to table to table with a portion of my meal (fried corn) before he realized it was my table where he needed to be. Next came my frozen peach margarita, taste like frozen juice w/o tequila. My server asked if I wanted an additional shot and informed me that it’d be $8 extra. At first I declined but the mere fact it tasted as though they missed the first shot, I asked Todd the additional shot. Minutes later came my shrimp dish. As if things couldn’t get worse my shrimp were lukewarm and the coleslaw/cabbage topping was wilted and dry, no crunch whatsoever. As hungry as I was, this first time experience her was surely going to be my last.

    Main miss tree/ Waitstaff was less than interested in friendly service. Act as if we were an inconvenience and didn’t bring us some of the things we asked for. However the support staff such as the woman showing the water and the young man that came around to bus the tables were all very friendly.
