One of my favorite lunch spots in Fort Worth for some good wholesome authentic Mexican food. Let me suggest the Carnitas, come with rice and beans, side of guacamole and pico de gallo. Their Carnitas are so tender so you will not be disappointed. Service is top notch from the hostess to the wait staff. Restaurant vibe is low key, low lighting but you will walk away fully satisfied

Mercado Juarez is a spot I've been coming to for many moons. This was one of the worst experiences I've had here. To note, I haven't been here in about 40 years, but I can say for certain it will be the last time I go here. The restaurant smells musty. The place doesn't seem clean - I know it's old, but it just doesn't seem clean. I ordered the deluxe nachos (I think that's what they were called) that were supposed to have meat, beans, cheese, guacamole, sour cream, jalapenos, & onions.I was served a plate of stale chips with simply melted velveeta (that's not queso. that's NOT QUESO), what looked like dog food and that's it. When the waitress finally came back around, I asked "isn't there supposed to be guacamole, sour cream and something else?" she said she'd be back... no real yes or no response just "I'll be back." 20 minutes later, I get a little plate that has maybe a teaspoon of guacamole, 1/2 teaspoon of sour cream that is plopped down and she walks away before I can even pull myself out of the state of disbelief here. I ate 2 chips, paid one of the people in my group for my plate and promptly left. It's a hard pass for me. When there's a sense of nostalgia tied to a place, it makes it even harder when you're disappointed. And wow was I disappointed.

Stopped in for Lunch today very festive atmosphere and plenty of space to enjoy a meal.Our server who I won't name here had some issues understanding or request instead of medium rare steak she explained she though we said medium red...unsure what the cook heard but we received it bruised and battered which I decided after she didn't understand the difference between sweet & unsweet tea to make the best of it.We used both English (me) and Spanish trying to make sure she understood.The rice,beans, tortilla soup & flour tortillas were great.

Alex was our waiter on 9/2/24. He was very personable and clarified the ingredients in your delicious Tortilla Soup ( Ive since forgotten what the distinctive spice was). The restaurant was very clean and the atmosphere was lovely. I recommend Mercado Juarez as a great venue for out of town guests or visitors to Fort Worth.

We went for an early dinner, we were seated promptly and our server brought out our drinks; Dr. pepper and tea. I ordered my usual sizzling vegetables with chicken and my husband ordered beef fajitas; both were fresh, hot and delicious; their tortillas are homemade and are to die for. If you haven't tried Mercado Juarez you are missing out. It's great for birthdays or date night with all their beautiful romantic lighting. The service is always superb as well.

It saddens me to write this. We've been coming to MJ since I was a kid, almost 50 yrs, and I have many great memories here. But ever since Covid it's just not the same. Sadly our last visit will likely be our LAST visit. The queso tasted canned. The tortillas, although freshly homemade, were thick and doughy. The chicken fajitas were obviously frozen, not fresh, and dangerously undercooked. We couldn't finish our meal it was so bad. The only reason I gave them 2 was because the service was good and the salsa is still my favorite! Unfortunately it's not enough to bring me back. The vibe is still fun so some changes in the kitchen will help, but for now, I'll have to pass.

I love this place. I hadn't been in years, but it's just like I remember. True Tex-Mex deliciousness. Warm salsa should be sold by the gallon. I love the music as it really gives the place authenticity. Service is always outstanding, and the bartender made a kick ass margarita. The lunch specials are a bargain and will fill you up. I'll definitely be back.

We really enjoyed our food and ambiance!!Service was a little slow at first, but our whole party wasn't there yet; and a HUGE to go order had just come through, so we were patient.The manager came to support and fulfill our needs. Happy hour margaritas are so good!

Can for lunch this Thursday and they had a special where you get free queso. I ordered fajitas and said I would have to get it for two. It's just says entree, so that's cool. Service wasn't the best either.

Food was mediocre at best. Queso was cheese from a can. Service was ok but expected a much better food experience with the level of traffic I saw in the parking lot.
