Great place! The Owners need to put some outdoor tables on the third floor. Some people still do not want to eat inside because of the vaccination levels.

This is a very old school place it has been in Los Angeles many years it has from trinkets to Big Time spices and herbs with food and music on the third floor which is awesome I suggest to everyone that visits Los Angeles come to this place you will find it to be very nice. This is a place to pray a little bit in the plaza.

I like coming. here but its very crowded parking hard to get. Bit food and products are. Great.

Have a craving? This is the place to take care of it! Couple of things I keep coming back for.. #1 the Birria Tacos!! Sooo Good! The place where I get them from is on the right side as soon as u enter.. and 2nd.. the Raspados they have natural fruit raspados delish! I wish I had a pic of it but it was soo good I drank it before I even thought of the picture 😅😋

Its not what it use to be before the pandemic a lot of stores closed even a meat market that was there closed down. Kinda boring and too high priced.

Love this place. Picked up some maiz for a pozole . They had several different styles. Great prices Los domingo son los mejores dias para comer unas carnitas.

Look for: Almost all things Mexican.Great pan dulce, bread, food, strawberries and cream, knick knacks and so much more.Location: Tons of parking

Hadnt been here in years. Only gave it 4 stars due to so many of the locales being shut down. The smell of leather from the boot/shoe stores made me nostalgic. You can find a variety of moles and spices here. You can find authentic cooking/kitchen vessels, utensils, etc. If you want to find ponchos, guayaberas, embroidered blouses and skirts or rebozos(shawls), this is where to find the real deal. Cowboy boots and hats? Here. They also have a little snack area where they sell, mangoneadas, Tostilocos, elote, Mexican ice cream and other goodies.

The gorditas and chorizo Español are my go tos.

Best place to grab some food, snacks,drinks, and T-shirts.

Best place to get your fix of antojitos! Parking on the wekeend is crazy busy.

If you havent tried these while visiting el mercadito youre missing out. Tacos de birria estilo Tijuana. Amazing deal at $3 each taco.

Best place if you want to go get a snack or two

We loved El Mercadito! First time there and loved the atmosphere and the variety of choices that they have available. You can find food, beverages and many pieces of art (artisan products)

Great place to find Mexican stuff, from traditional Mexican attires, mole pastes, spices and of course good food. Parking lot is a bit small therefore is highly recommended to arrive early. They have live entertainment in the evening hours. 👍👍

Indoor swapmeet and lots of food.

Benn a long time since ive been here its still nice to visit. Not all food locals were open but lots of gift places.

Even though the 3rd floor isnt open at the moment where ALL the real beauty happens, Everything about this place is phenomenal! The goodies and the atmosphere feels like no other. Chingon😎

Its so nice here Its like a little mexico in one small place they have everything you need.

Mexican florkorr, at its best!! Family oriented. Good Mexican food n goodies!!! Must go n visit. Enjoyable place. Awesome place to take a date. Or an friends n family!!😎😊👍😁

El Gallito restaurant... is delicious food... menudo is bomb ..la birria de chivo and everything also theres is good definitely recommend to any one looking for a good desalluno...

I love coming here, its almost like taking a trip to Mexico. They have tons of traditional Mexican items throughout the entire Mercadito and the best part are the goodies to indulge in!

Great place to visit if you are into the Latino culture and enjoy entertainment and good food as well as some good merchandise. They have also recently added a lot of anime merch to the the stores if you are into that.

I been to different places and flea markets but I can honestly say I am satisfied with my purchases and the pricing they have !

💯 satisfied for what I was looking or needed, mole souvenirs food, no complaints.

Nice people and very helpful. I like the las palmitas raspado

Tooo much to eat am in love but am gona need a good diet after this 🐖🐖🐖🐖

It was nice to be able to be there againEveryone was very nice and very helpfulThe prices are no to highA lot of things to pick if you like Mexican stuff

Nice place to walk around if you are in the area and want to support the locals

Best place to go.. for the esquites at Chivas. And the churos con el tocayo Erik

I went today 8/10/21 and was surprised to see most of the shops are now in the parking lot. I purchased a pistachio ice cream.. Snacks are pre-packaged. Also, the ice cream, raspados and chips out door area is now behind plastic plexi. People seemed to keep social distances for the most part. I did see a few people with no masks and no masks on their kids. If you go just know you cant really eat there and their food is packaged to go. Keep your eye out for people that dont wear masks because those people werent socially distancing at all.

We ate at El Gallo. The food was really good and our waitress was very helpful

Good variety and excellent food ... MMMMMMDELICIOUS

Excellent gorditas. A lot of nice stuff to buy and eat

Abren muy tarde, 10am, lo demas me gusta mucho.They open very late 10am, the rest I love it. We got mole poblano and a few other things

Good food, nice clothes and good vibes. It tends to be overly packed to fully enjoy it. Perhaps on a weekday would be best

It was a nice place a lot of beautiful Mexican things to buy it was like being in Mexico and all the people were friendly, they just didnt have what I was looking for but I bought a lot of other beautiful things I was very pleased .

Thr food is great, the costumer service not too good. I guess they need s better system to take the orders.

Really nice place full of Mexican foods, clothes, accessories, and artisans

This place is my favorite . I use to come very often before covid. I normally like to avoid crowded places, so I went today. Not a lot of vendors which was okay because I went for the food. The food on the second floor was good ( customer service can be better. )The fruit I get is from a stand by the stairs ail... Soooo good and the aguas frescas are bomb.

Great place been here since i was little still love it

Its a great spot to get mexican souvenirs and meals.

Great place to shop and eat their a lot of people.

La Cocina sales the best Gorditas in East LA. My family and I have been going there since 2004. Of course the wait time is a bit long but worth it.

Lots of traditional plates to choose from and love the atmosphere.

Bad customer service and food not well served. Its pricey too and not that good. It was at the El Gallito. Wouldnt recommend it.

Great place to find Mexican stuff, from traditional Mexican attires, mole pastes, spices and of course good food. Parking lot is a bit small therefore is highly recommended to arrive early. They have live entertainment in the evening hours. Overall a good place to have a good time.

Great place. Parking situation sucks but you will live lol.

The food is still phenomenal! The place still rocks! Food,clothing, shoes as well as lotions and potions!

I love it here.. a little of everything, gotta go back

Delicious snacks and great prices! Perfect place to come and distract yourself. Nice.

Have been coming here since I was 6-7yrs old, the food has always been the same... Mucho Sabroso 👌👌👌

Not the same after COVID-19!! Its a different vibe.

Nice place to look for Mexican artesanies, and delicious food

LOVE TO COME HERE EVERY NOW AND THEN, LOTS OF THINGS TO SEE. LOVE THE STRONG MEXICAN CULTURE THEY HAVE ON DISPLAY HERE. I LOVE GETTING THE NIEVE THEY SELL OUTSIDE, THERES ALWAYS A LINE BECAUSE ITS SO DAMN GOOD.

Best Mexican food and products my favorite place to shop in Los Angeles

The best place for Mexican food

Everything here is so good and authentic I love coming here with my children and showing them about their culture

I like to buy Mexican stuff that you can’t find anywhere else only traveling to Mexico of course but is low key tho lol

Bad waiter service inside. They are all over the place forgetting orders.

Fun place to visit. A bit on the expensive side. Bring cash!!!

Love it all in one place food tacos de birria guaraches beautiful sandals belts Comal

Love coming here for fresh and warm churros and the nieve de nuez is the best. Every scoop is full of nueces, this is so far the best nieve de nuez.

Whenever I go to Los Angeles I go to buy Ice cream fried plantains but above all it makes me remember the markets of our country

Delicious 🤤

Always a great place to have Mariscos and live Mariachi!

Great place if your looks for old fashion Mexican stuff

I come for the ambiance. I love the live music upstairs on the 2nd floor...dinner and mariachi entertainment. I always have to grab a bite...some of the best gorditas in Los Angeles can be found on the main floor, back entrance in front of Tamayo Jewlers. Expect a line....

Great selection for Latin/Mexican items

Good place for walking around with the family

It has all types of mexican food natural drinks orchata jamaica. Dine outside they sell clothes toys for kids & raspados i recommendedtype

Good service, I bought a bionico.. a bow with different kinds of fruits, granola and lechera syrup. It was delicious not too sweet!

Its good but to many people I dont like so very dificult to parking there

It was great, I love the positive energy around the people and I know that due Covid not all of the spaces are open but still its a good place to go.

Enjoyed it. Some places were pricey but if you go around the shops you can find decent prices. Very cultural.

Best mole ♥ 😍 😋

Culture and tradition, the best place for sweets.

Everything is open that the mercadito

Good found a few things not bad

Prepare to bargain and eat good food.

Hard to find parking on the weekends but worth it for the ice cream they sell there.

Very rich in culture and a fantastic experience. Must visit if youre an la local.

This is the go to spot in LA for some real Mexican snacks, candy, churros raspados. You name it, they have it!

Best churros in town!

Although many shops are closed these days, get ready for a serious Mexican experience.

Its a good place to get a quick bite to eat and safely is their priority.

Nice place

Very fun and friendly environment. One of those places to visit when visiting LA. Food is very very good and best place to buy good cheap souvenirs. 10/10 recommended

They moved a lot of vendors outside so theres less of a contagion risk. There are still some vendors indoors but most are outside as well as some food vendors. Parking is more limited now so I suggest you get there early to avoid crowds and get a parking spot.Most people were wearing a mask so that was also reassuring. All vendors I interacted with wore masks and were very helpful!
