This was my first experience with Mercado. We were so excited to try this restaurant as we love shared eating experiences. Diego was our host - he is super knowledgeable about the menu, was so lovely and hospitable and made us feel special. The food was absolutely to die for. Every menu item was delicious. We had the full experience menu and can highly recommend! Will definitely be back.

wow absolutely lovely! We got the set menu for $70 PP, which was Devine! The highlights was the pumpkin pasta & chicken! Our waiter, Diego, was so attentive and polite. We got extra sauce for the dish he saw us love the most, and he gave us a mini treat for our anniversary! Lovely atmosphere in the restaurant, delicious Manaderin Virgin Mojito, absolutely worth trying this place out!

Haven’t had more high-dining food at such a high scale anywhere else, and the customer service was amazing—the best part of all. They cater to gluten-free, dairy-free customers, and best of all, everything, even dessert, which I never consume, was perfect.

We were able to get a table as walk-in guests on a busy Saturday night; front staff was very accomodating and considerate.

The whole experience was just so perfect that 5 stars would not be enough to give it justice. Me and my friends tried most of the dishes; and all of the dishes were superb quality. Our favourites were, liver pate, beef tartare, scallops, prawns, pumpkin-ricotta gnudi and dry-aged steak. I can say that Mercado is one of the best restaurants that I can highly recommend to anyone because they have a wide variety of options and the quality of food does not change, since the last time I came here.

We commend Diego for being so attentive and providing us an exceptional service.
