About Restaurant
Nestled in the heart of downtown Fort Wayne, Mercado brings a slice of the West Coast to Indiana with its vibrant Cali-Mex cuisine. Located at 111 W Columbia St, Suite 103, this spot is a go-to for those craving bold flavors and a lively atmosphere.
The menu is a delightful fusion of traditional Mexican dishes with a Californian twist. Take the Carne Asada Taco, for instance—tender steak topped with onion, cilantro, and a guac sauce that packs a punch. Or the Broken Spanish Taco, featuring chicken tinga, lettuce, cotija, and crema, offering a harmonious blend of textures and tastes. For something heartier, the Chicano Chicken doesn't disappoint: grilled chicken served over chamoy-glazed Brussels sprouts, garlicky potatoes, and drizzled with queso sauce.
But it's not just about the food. Mercado's ambiance is a blend of hipster chic and casual elegance, making it perfect for both a relaxed lunch and a romantic dinner. The moderate noise level adds to the energetic vibe without overwhelming conversation.
Don't miss out on their Queso Fundido Plate—a cast iron skillet of melted cheese served with tortillas, ideal for sharing. And if you're in the mood for something comforting, the Enchiladas, stuffed with chicken tinga and topped with salsa verde and red guajillo sauce, are a must-try.
Whether you're a local or just passing through, Mercado offers a dining experience that's both trendy and rooted in rich culinary traditions.

“ I hadn't been to Mercado in a while and it was as delicious as ever! I had the #SquadGoals Jamaica Margarita and it was great -- a little sweet, a little smoky! We shared the Dip Trio and polished it off -- and it came with plenty of chips to enjoy all the dips with. For my entree I had the Chorizo Bolognese (yum!), our son got the perfectly-executed Carne Asada Fries, and my husband couldn't stop raving about the Al Pastor Pork Chop! Our server, Mackenzie, was friendly and helpful! Can't wait to go back! ”

“ This is definitely my favorite restaurant in all of Fort Wayne to go to. My friends and I love them and we all agree that our favorite item on the menu is the carne asada fries. I'm not a big steak person but they're just that good. The staff are always helpful and kind. The vibe of the restaurant is good and I feel like it's always some place cool to show others who have not been there before. ”

“ Mercado... one of my favorite places to visit in Fort Wayne. My friends and I went for the Cinco de Mayo celebration over the weekend and the atmosphere was perfect! A live band, a covered tent, and quick service. It had been ages since I'd been back, but the food only got better. The chori-queso and carne asada tacos are incredible, and we shared the dip trip at the table. Highly recommend visiting with friends to try multiple items, and enjoy sitting on the patio with good weather this summer. Love it! ”
