Red Mesa Mercado has bestowed St. Petersburg with a true gift: burrito boxes.
At $10 per box, the EDGE District grab-'n'-go offering comes with chips and salsa, Oreos and a burrito of your choice; the lovingly rolled-up options are pork, chicken, veggies, beef, shrimp and beans, but good luck deciding. (After all, the California-style, walk-up Mexican joint did win a Best of the Bay last year for its arrestingly delicious breakfast burritos.)
Hey St Pete! Going to the Trop? Going to the Beach? Going to Vinoy Park? Grab some MERCADO BURRITO BOXES! Only $10 even!…

These new burrito boxes are fit for folks embarking on a day outdoors — parkside, beachside, wherever. And the restaurant also suggests scooping one up on the way to a Rays game at Tropicana Field.
Orders can be placed ahead of time (just hit up Mercado by phone). However, there's a four box minimum.
