A rooftop bar with reasonable prices? I'm sold! This was my first time trying oysters so I can't speak to how they compare to others, but they certainly were delicious and looked exquisite. Chips and queso were fresh and flavorful! Would definitely recommend for a beautiful view, great service, and delicious food and drinks.

Found this delicious spot when searching for tacos on a whim! We tried the Barbacoa tacos and the salsa trio, and we will definitely be back to try more. The service was great, the vibe was fun and eclectic, and the menu was fantastic.

Our son and his wife suggested we come here for dinner as we were visiting them in Nashville on a Saturday evening. They made a reservation and we were welcomed as we walked in, and then shown to our table. The atmosphere at Mercado is lively with a youthful vibe. We ordered our drinks and they were all delicious. I had the house margarita and it was very tasty. We then ordered our food - oh boy! we decided to order a variety of things off the menu and share. So we ordered the Grande Taco Board (for 2) with brisket, pork, barbacoa and chile chicken. All were excellent! We also had the Ceviche Mixto, Baja Fish "crunch" style (fish is fried with a light breading), the Barbacoa Birria Dumplings -- all of which was fresh and extremely tasty! Our server was excellent and he gave us great descriptions of all the things we asked about and made some wonderful recommendations. I can highly recommend this restaurant for a tasty dining experience in a very lively atmosphere. Thank you J&E!

We recently had the pleasure of dining at Mercado by Butchertown, and I can't recommend it enough! This upscale Mexican restaurant combines creativity with a warm atmosphere, making it a perfect spot for both a casual night out and a special occasion. From the moment we walked in, the vibrant crowd and inviting ambiance set the stage for a delightful evening. Our waitress, Avery, truly elevated our experience by helping with recommendations, and even bringing out two excellent wines for us to taste, ensuring we found the perfect match for our meal. The wine list may be small, but it's thoughtfully curated, showcasing quality selections that complement the menu beautifully. One of the standout features of Mercado is the rooftop bar. You would not necessarily know that they have one, just upon walking into the restaurant. You go to the back and take an elevator to the top floor. With stunning views of the city, it's the ideal spot to unwind with one of their cocktails. The lounge furniture adds to the relaxed vibe, making it a great place to enjoy drinks with friends. While it can get crowded on popular nights with a younger crowd, I can see it also being a lovely escape for anyone looking to soak in the scenery on a less busy day. Overall, Mercado by Butchertown offers an impressive dining experience with fantastic food, creative cocktails, and a beautiful rooftop space. Whether you're a local or just visiting, it's a must-visit gem in the city!

The rooftop bar is the perfect happy hour! You can't go wrong with $8 margs and $1 oysters, and the service is great. Everything came out super quick, and the view is beautiful. Will definitely be coming back!

Came here on a Friday at 6pm with reservations. We ordered some tacos and queso which were both great. The queso was easily large enough for 4 people. Tacos were good albeit not mind blowing for the price. The atmosphere and vibe of the spot really started popping off around 7-8pm. Their rooftop bar has one of the best views of the Nashville skyline I know of. We cant wait to come back and grab drinks with friends here.

It was a perfect night to eat and grab some drinks outside, and I think Mercado is a great place to do that! We decided to have some drinks and apps on the rooftop. The view is absolutely amazing! You get to see the whole Nashville skyline. We luckily got one of the last tables of four so we were able to sit right away. It was very busy there, so it take the waiter a bit longer to get to us, but that was ok! I ordered an Aperol Spritz which is the perfect summer rooftop drink in my opinion! We also decided to share the broiled oysters and the queso. The broiled oysters were fantastic, especially when you sprinkle the lime on top. I knew I'd love the queso since the queso at their sister restaurant (Butchertown Hall) is to die for! We did want to order the ceviche, but the waiter told us the runner had left, so there was only one runner working the whole restaurant and it would take "a hot minute" before we would get that, so we decided to skip that. I will say the parking situation can be pretty touch around there. It did take us a few minutes to find street parking, but we eventually did!

Mercado's is one of my new favorite spots in Nashville. It's tucked away in the Wedgwood and Houston area. The ambiance feels like a modern beach town with all the beautiful interior. My favorite thing about this spot is the upstairs bar. It overlooks the views of Nashville. The service has always been very good here considering how busy they are. Food comes out at a reasonable time as well as the drinks. The food is high quality. I would recommend the guacamole over their salsa and get house margs. The "Grande" Board is a great meal to split between 3 people. This place really is such a great place without dealing with the chaos of other Nashville restaurants. The only complaint is the limited parking (which is not their fault). Check this place out!
