Great authentic real Mexican food and amazing atmosphere (not like others). Their fresh bakery and fresh meat market is great. The staff is amazing, respectful, courteous, helpful, and overall great. The food is amazingly fresh, taste great, pricing is fair, and so many great things to say. But you have to try it yourself. I’m disabled in a wheelchair and I travel over a mile just to eat their amazing food. It is very worth it. In my opinion, no other so called Mexican restaurant compares. Eat great food!

This place is fantastic!! Free chips and salsa like most Mexican places but they also bring out free a free soup appetizer!! The food is super good I have had the steak breakfast burrito and the steak and fries burrito. My girlfriend got the pork torta!! All the portions are huge!! They are also very well priced!! They have a red and green salas that they will bring to your table upon request that is also amazing!! This has become my new favorite Mexican restaurant!! If I lived closer I would eat here everyday!!

This place has great food. I had street tacos with carnitas, birria, and nopal (cactus). They were all delicious. Atmosphere is clean and bright and the service (from Bruno and staff) was excellent. Highly recommend!

What a hidden gem! Excellent spot for brunch, lunch, and dinner. Huge menu, great prices, and delicious food. We’ve also gotten items from their market to make more authentic Mexican dinners and those were all great too! Highly recommend overall.

La Marketa is next-level amazing. I was recommended the steak and fries burrito and WOW—absolute flavor bomb. Every bite was fire. Service? Super friendly and fast. This spot has serious heart. Can’t wait to come back.

Friendly people with pretty good food! I had the Al Pastor tacos & the meat was tender & succulent. I will be back to try other menu items. Oh & their meat in the market looks good quality as well as fresh I will get some homemade Chorizo next visit also.
