Northgate Market has just opened a Mexican-style Mercado with many colorful food stalls, including the famed El Moro Churro stand from Mexico City, carnitas from Carnitas Don Miguel, tortas by Chiba Torta, and tacos by Tacos Los Guichos. Located in the grocer's Costa Mesa location, the food hall and marketplace have become a hot spot for food lovers.
