Go here for most all my produce..good selection and prices verses the big chain stores. . They have loyalty program to get free eggs and they are nice enough to give me tortillas instead since I don't eat eggs. The tortillas are fresh and best in town. I like the weekly text to see their add on my phone !

This place just keeps improving! The take out food is delicious. Hand made flour tortillas and tamales. Beautiful produce and meat sections. The groceries are a little more expensive but it's there for the convenience. Great staff!!

I give this store a 3 stars, because lately the flour tortillas have been getting really thin. I'm not exaggerating. They taste great but almost paper thin where you can almost see through them. When we started shopping there way before the pandemic the flour tortillas weren't as thin..Yes inflation has hot everyone, but $5.00 for flour tortillas is a little bit high. And the meats are pretty high priced, yes they have some select meats, but you can find the same quality of meats elsewhere and cheaper. Hot foods overpriced, some of the foods sit for at least 1/2 a day. Veggies and fruits when on sale are probably the best priced anywhere. We would definitely do more shopping there if we could afford it because we are on a fixed retirement income. We still continue to patronize this business but please please 🙏 please make the flour tortillas a tad thicker when making a burrito they usually tear.. question, what do they say Hand Made tortillas when infant the dough is mixed in the mixer and separated by machine and only hand rolled before being put on the press? Thank you.

A great place to shop. There super nice staff continuously helped me even though I had to come back 3 times for more stuff.

Fresh made tortillas, a lot of fresh food, tamales, and extensive array if beers and wines, an impressive selection for such a small store

If this is in your area I would recommend making this a primary store for your fresh food needs.

I purchased a pack of hamburger meat along with a bunch of other groceries yesterday.... My car broke down the mechanic had to come fix my car today it is now fixed I went into the store to return the hamburger meat because they are not the lien that I wanted... I was told by a lady who claimed she was the management... That we have to return it the same day... I explained to her it hasn't even been 24 hours it's not open touched or anything and it's not what I wanted.... Not only did she hang up on me twice... She said she was management but would not give me her name... Now she is completely ignoring the calls... This is very bad customer service... She would not give me her management name to claim she was management.... Would not give her name and is very rude.... I do not want your overpriced groceries or you rude customer service...

Update store picked up the phone finally management got back on... I told her she was being very rude and she said thank you.... I told her the way she is handling customer service is not professional and that she needed to give me her name..... She said what do you want me to do.... I said return my meat we cannot return meat within 24 hours from the store... Which makes me feel like they're selling bad meat... Most stores give you a couple days for me at least. . Only 24 hours makes me suspect that maybe their meat at the store it's not good for their consumers... Not to mention I have not even had it for 24 hours... This is very suspect the way the lady spoke to me was very disrespectful. I will be contacting Management in the morning I'm on SSI I'm disabled and I have nothing but time on my hand to deal with this problem... They need to fire that employee are clothes their bad meat store...

Another update I believe the same rude employee answered stating that I need to call the owner on Sunday... So basically in 2 to 3 days I need to call the owner... This makes no sense this store needs to be shut down and then I was hung up on again

I bought a cake for my daughter’s birthday, it was beautiful and so good!! Everybody at her party asked where I had gotten it because it was so delicious. The baker Anna did a fantastic job, thank you!

I will never shop at this establishment ever again. I understand wanting to stop theft. But when your efforts are so militant that it makes your loyal customers feel harassed, then you’re now losing business. It’s ridiculous. Grow up.

Went to Garden farms market in Lakeside to get some carne asada and the sides for a bbq. The carne asada was not marinaded as advertised in the butchers case. The pico de gallo tastes like old produce. We’ll not be returning.
