What customers say?

“ Just steps inside the Mercado Roma sits Pato Manila… it is only one of about 35 or 40 different pesto’s or stalls that are serving up delicious food amongst the ricotta Roma, but what drew me here was the fact that this place serves only one protein and that is duck. Duck egg rolls duck wontons duck tacos, Cantonese style duck… Duck everything. I ordered one of each of the four best sellers. The clear star of the show was the eggroll and the Cantonese style Taco. The wonton and the taco Manila with beans was good, but I’m in Mexico and I want more than good for a meal. All in all 4.5 stars and if you’re going there, make sure to put the chili oil on the Cantonese style taco and get the sweet and hot sauce for the eggroll and wonton. That is the correct move. The only con about the entire experience was the beer. It wasn’t bad. It was just a pale ale that was barely colder than room temperature. Get a better fridge, gentlemen! Lol ”

“ @mealsoflegend: An absolutely delicious fusion taqueria that brings the best of Peking duck and places it on a simple menu that is elevated by the variety and quality of the sauces. Try one of each but skip the torta. The bread subtracts from the succulent flavor of the duck. Great music selection too and the vintage boards are class. ”
