Mercado La Torre - Sunnyvale

Finally came to check out this local restaurant for dinner. They close relatively early (8pm the latest but varies based on day) and I normally eat late. The menu is relatively simple, but there's a good variety. We ended up getting the camarones a la diabla (spicy shrimp), chicken enchiladas, and an agua fresca (Jamaica). Food came out pretty quickly and we were given some chips and salsa to munch on while we waited. We enjoyed the food. The spicy shrimp had heat, but I could tolerate it with the agua fresca to cool down. I also got to sample the chicken enchiladas and I enjoyed that as well.The agua fresca came in a giant mason jar. We were glad we were sharing given the size because we are limiting our sugar intake. It was good and sweet, but you notice the sugar when you normally drink flavored seltzer. Overall, we had a good experience and enjoyed the food. It is just a slightly pricier option but worth it. Of course, this is a small business and all prices are going up nowadays. Plus, we haven't been going out as much for a while, so my scale may be out of date. We also got plates and one was a seafood dish. They offered some less expensive options as well. So, I'll definitely come back to check out some of those other options soon. Highly recommended.

I came here for the Pozole they did not disappoint! The carne was so soft the caldo was even better! It came with Tostadas, instead of tortillas and a side of chopped onions, cabbage, lemons and a clear container of spicy salsa to add on to it! Overall, 5 Stars!!!

Though unassuming from the front, this place honestly surprised me. The al pastor and carne asada were well marinated and were crisp yet juicy. The super tacos are a bit messy and a little heavy with the inclusion of rice AND beans but for the amount you get, I can't complain. Opt for the regular tacos if you really want to appreciate the taste of the meat

Got a carne asada burrito and it was terrible. It has no flavor other than being extremely salty.

This is a hidden Gem! 5 Stars all the way. Their Quesa Birria Tacos are awesome, their burritos are awesome, I can’t wait to go back and try their Shrimp cocktail.
