Fabulous local grocery store with TONS of very fresh, very affordable produce. Theyve got aisles packed with all sorts of products - Mexican, Latin American, and US staples. Theres also a meat counter that looked like it had a lot of fresh options. This place was kinda out of the way for us, but it was more than worth it to come here! Will definitely be back :)

Well stocked supermarket with all the basics and more, and friendly staff. Great selection of snacks from all over Latin America. Also has a meat counter and some pre packaged foods like ceviche. Highlight is the cafe, which has burritos and tacos, including great lengua ones (pictured).

This is my favorite little market. I stop by for specific goods, such as nopales, pan dulce, and bolillos etc. Everything is priced well. You can sometimes get good deals on fruit too. I highly recommend Mi Tierra!

They have a good selection and they also have a grill inside and they make great food.

Aside from groceries, they have a burrito/small plates kitchen inside which is usually realllly good, but sometimes they have someone at the counter who just has no idea what they are doing. But they normally have lengua and thats what does it for me. Update: hot food issue mentioned prior seems to be remedied and forgive me for not saying anything about the groceries, carneceria and produce. A varied selection of ingredients not common in chain stores along side the standard items. Carneceria is decent and definitely the produce is quality and very well priced. Matter of fact, the entire store is priced very well.

The service was great. The store had already closed, but we had to call in a ride service, and they let is stay inside with the cart while we waited. It helped tremendously to just be able to load the stuff directly from the cart instead of having to wait 20 mins outside with all the heavy bags we had. Thank you so much!

Review №23

I love this little market. Great produce, butcher and lunch counter. Id love to give more stars but I cant understand why they seem to always sell out of their delicious tamales. Whenever Im in I ask and they are often sold out. I manage three retail shops and whenever I see an item that sells out regularly I make sure to stock more of that item. I cant understand the business thinking behind their decision.

This is a wonderful neighborhood store with a good selection of Latino foods. Great place to get your dried Guajillo and Ancho chilies for making Pozole! The meat counter has some good prepared Al Pastor ready to grill.No down sides here, small clean neighborhood store with pleasant helpful employees.

What a bummer! On my valentines breakfast with your tamales with anything inside, 😳10 tamales @ $2.50 each = $25 for just masa!! And its not the first time, a while ago, they did not even have salt. Can I get my money back?

Review №41

Friendly staff, reasonable prices, and clean.The restaurant inside has great food at reasonable prices. They need to add a tipping option on our receipts from that register since so many people do not carry cash anymore. I hate having to give just $1 for a tip since that is almost always the only amount of cash that I have on me. The workers deserve to be tipped for a job well done.Support local business and shop here.

As someone who grew up in a very Mexican part of Southern California, this store is a godsend! The only thing I havent been able to find is a specific candy/chamoy brand that Ive only ever seen in Mexico/Southern California (which is probably for the best since I dont need another excuse to eat candy).

This Mexican grocery store has been revamped and looks much cleaner and nicer now. Nice and friendly staff. Very affordable fruits and veggies. They also have fresh squeezed juices every morning and a bakery in the back. They have a deli shop where they make fresh sandwiches everyday on their homemade bread. The turkey sandwiches at $4 are a steal. They are filling with good ingredients. I usually grab them for a picnic when going on hikes with friends.

This is a great West Berkeley Mexican Food Center near University and San Pablo. Theres a Mexican grocery store that also has a Mexican deli with coffee service, the food is cooked fast and tasty. The Mexican grocery store is well-stocked. Staff speak Spanish, English, and perhaps other languages. Bike racks are in front. Across the street is the country cheese store.

Great selection, fair prices! Long time customer, even before the secret was out. This little store isnt so little anymore, and they remodeled in a way that strengthened their Latinx roots and doubled down on community. They still have a really good selection of groceries, produce, frozen items, and pantry goods, with the added bonuses of a real-life butcher counter (the pollo marinada and carne asada is the best), an in-house pan dulce bakery (conche!!), and a revamped to-go counter for tacos, burritos, and platos. You can also get staples to go from there, like a quarts of rice and delicious pinto beans. Amazingly easy!The grocery selection includes staples youd find in any Mexican grocery, along with some smart pulls from the organic set to give Berkeley Bowl a run for their money. The organic produce section has also been about doubled in the last year or so. They offer a huge selection of milks and eggs, but if youre looking for non-mexican cheeses, Id go elsewhere. They have a few blocks of locally made Sonoma cheeses, but if its brie or fancy goat cheese or something, sorry, but the Country Cheese Store across the street closed a year and a half ago. Sad face.Covid 19 update: Everything is clean, well run, stocked, and organized here. Masks are REQUIRED. The take-out option is still available from the cafe, calling ahead to order is best. The line usually isnt that bad unless you go around dinner or lunch time, and even then its maybe only 10min max. Id rather shop here than anywhere else, at the moment!

Nice neighborhood grocery focused on serving the largely Hispanic clientele. There is a meat counter, and a small selection of organic veggies and fruit. A small taqueria is Im the entrance, and had decent burritos. It seemed a little more expensive than Safeway, but the quality was good, and its the only grocery in the neighborhood.

If you want to support a locally owned family grocery store that has pretty good tropical produce, an amazing taqueria, pasteles, tortillas gruesas and signature salsa roja and salsa verde - **You have to try this place**. Theyve been around for a while and have serious local history. Reasonable prices. In addition to the terrific food, I feel better shopping here or Monterey Market than going to Whole Foods.

Came to this market looking for Peruvian products and came out with what I was looking for. This market has a section for each south american country. For Peruvian products, was able to find Aji Amarillo (frozen, paste and canned), choclo (frozen), yellow potatoes (frozen), Inca Kola, Tari, etc.It is now part of my grocery shopping stops for Peruvian products.
