The Mexarican Story

Mexarican is a bold fusion born from two vibrant culinary traditions - Mexican and Puerto Rican. Every dish we craft carries the soul of abuela's kitchen and the fire of a street-side taquería. From our signature Arrachera Bowl loaded with grilled skirt steak and guacamole, to our crispy Tostones and soulful Jibarito Dinner, we bring authentic Latin-American flavors to Merrillville, Indiana. This is food that connects cultures, satisfies cravings, and feels like coming home.

Straight From the People

I'm a proud Boricua so finding out there was a place serving Puerto Rican food so close to me I was very skeptical. I HAVE NO COMPLAINTS. NONE. I got the Arrachera Bowl (Skirt Steak) and Tostones and the flavor is authentic! Price point was high but I believe worth it. Quality is there! Food is enough to serve two i felt. If I had to knit pick I would just say the beans are watery and my preference is for a little thicker sauce but that did not affect the flavor whatsoever!! And more garlic in the mayoketchup but that's literally it! 10/10
