A little Chinese inspiration, a lot of Peruvian soul. 🇵🇪

Chaufa was born from the meeting of Chinese culinary traditions and Peruvian ingredients, what would become known as chifa, one of Peru’s most beloved styles of cooking.

Our Chaufa Mixto brings that story to the table: savory, wok-fired rice, bold flavors, and that warm, satisfying comfort you want from dinner.

And on a night like tonight? This is exactly the kind of plate we’re craving. 🔥🍚

A little rain never stopped a good brunch. ☔️🥂

We don’t mind getting a little wet when this is waiting on the other side.

Four spritzes, one tree, and a very good reason to brave the storm. 🌿✨

Fresh, herbal, and a little unexpected. 🌿

Selva Verde: Green Chartreuse, Italicus, cucumber & lime.

Bright, botanical, and made for slow brunch afternoons.

Golden hour, poured into a glass. 🌅

Andean Sunset: Aperol, passionfruit, lime & Prosecco.

Tropical, bittersweet, bubbly, and very easy to love.

Pretty in pink, but definitely not shy. 🌸

Guayaba Rosa: elderflower, guava, lime & sparkling rosé.

Floral, fruity, crisp, and made for brunch.

A Mercado take on a brunch classic. 🍷

Mercado Sangria: a South American-inspired Malbec sangria

Made for sharing, sipping, and ordering another round.

Why choose one when the table can have all four? 🥂🌿

The Mercado Brunch Spritz Tree brings Selva Verde, Andean Sunset, Guayaba Rosa & Mercado Sangria together in one centerpiece.

Bring the group. We’ll bring the tree.

Come a little closer. 👀✨

At Mercado, every plate tells its story through color, texture, and fresh ingredients.
The bright acidity of citrus, the heat of ajíes, the richness of fresh seafood, the crunch of herbs and vegetables, and the layers of flavor that define Ecuadorian and Peruvian cuisine.

Bold. Vibrant. Unexpected.

Food that’s just as beautiful up close as it is delicious at the table. 🇪🇨🇵🇪

Zoom in. Taste everything. 🌿🔥

A new chapter of ceviche at Mercado. 🌊

Bright citrus, bold ají, fresh seafood, smoky notes, tropical fruit, and plenty of leche de tigre.

Meet the new Ceviches & Tiraditos section of our dinner menu five different expressions, each with its own personality.

🔥 Ceviche Ahumado

Smoke changes everything. Smoked mahi mahi, shrimp, and octopus come together with ají amarillo and avocado for a ceviche that’s rich, savory, creamy, and just a little unexpected.

A deeper, bolder side of ceviche.

🥭 Tuna Tiradito

Silky tuna crudo meets the tropics. Mango, passion fruit, ají amarillo, creamy torched avocado, and lime create a bite that moves between sweet, bright, rich, and gentle spice.

🇵🇪 Peruvian Classic

Clean, bright, and timeless. Fresh mahi mahi cured in leche de tigre with red onion, sweet potato, and choclo. Citrusy, refreshing, and unmistakably Peruvian.

🌶️ Ceviche Rocoto

The classic with a little more attitude. Mahi mahi, leche de tigre, red onion, sweet potato, and choclo, finished with the bold, fruity heat of ají rocoto.

Bright first. Heat follows.

🇪🇨 Ceviche de Camarón

A taste of Ecuador by the spoonful. Plump shrimp with tomato, red onion, and orange come together in a ceviche that’s juicy, citrusy, refreshing, and full of coastal flavor.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ is nice… but this is our favorite kind of review. 🍽️

Empty plates, silverware down, not a bite left behind.

Nothing makes us happier than knowing you came hungry, enjoyed every bite, and left the plate looking like this.

At Mercado, the best compliments don’t always need words. 🤌🏽

Come hungry. We’ll take care of the rest.

A little smoke. A little spice. Something floral, something tart, something classic. 🍸

The cocktails at Mercado pull inspiration from across Latin America, familiar flavors reimagined behind the bar, from flor de Jamaica and chicha morada to naranjilla, Miske, mezcal and pisco.

Swipe through. Your next favorite might be waiting. 🌎✨

JAMAICA MULE 🌺

Floral, fruity, brightand finished with a little kick.

Vodka, flor de Jamaica, strawberry, lime and ginger b**r come together in our Jamaica Mule for a refreshing twist on the classic.

Sweet enough to pull you in. Ginger enough to keep things interesting.

PACHAS ELIXIR 💜

Dark fruit. Warm spice. A touch of bitterness.

Pachas Elixir blends pisco, amaro, spiced chicha morada and lime into a cocktail that feels both mysterious and familiar.

Peruvian inspiration, poured with a little Mercado magic.

CANELAZO SOUR 🇪🇨

An Ecuadorian tradition, shaken into something new.

Our Canelazo Sour brings together Lindero Miske, naranjilla, lime, cinnamon and egg white. A bright, silky riff inspired by the warmth and spice of traditional canelazo.

A little piece of Ecuador in every sip.

TAITA SMOKE 🔥

Sweet meets smoke.

Taita Smoke layers Lindero Miske and mezcal with charred pineapple, lime and agave for a cocktail that starts tropical and finishes smoky.

Bold, balanced, and not afraid to make an entrance.

PISCO SOUR 🇵🇪

Some classics don’t need reinventing.

Pisco, fresh lime, simple syrup and egg white. Bright, silky, balanced and unmistakably Peruvian.

The Pisco Sour: simple on paper, iconic in the glass.
