They have daily specials, my wife saw this on Facebook. This time they had tamales with refried beans and Spanish rice. They were very good, in both the mild and hot. I even picked up a bag of a dozen to freeze. We are going to keep a eye on the daily meal offering and try everything. They also have a verity of Mexican groceries available.
Excellent place to go for real authentic Mexican food...Very satisfied customer here.. Friendly atmosphere and very respectful and professional...very grateful to have this store in our community.....
I have 0 clue how this place has such high ratings. The only thing I could come up with was that they have a bunch of family and friends giving out high reviews. The food was super bland hardly any flavor at all. Got the tacos and beans and rice and wow its really insane how little flavor anything had. Also got some flavored water drink that somehow costs $5? Are you kidding me for some flavored water LOL. If you have any taste buds at all just go somewhere else like Acapolco or Mangos.
I love La Unica! Stop there regularly for tamales and excellent fresh salsas and tortillas. Tiny, but well-stocked store with great lunch specials and breakfast/lunch on weekends. I am so glad that we have a real, friendly and worker-owned Mexican restaurant/market in our community and highly recommend it to everyone who loves great food.
I walked in to the new shop on university in Fargo to check it out and order some food. I stood there for 5 minutes and the ladies saw me standing there. They never said hi or just a moment and they walked away. So I just left and came home to write this review on how rude they were.
This is the real deal taco shop and Mexican Mercado in the FM area!!Ive been to Mexico many times and this is what tacos and burritos should taste like.OK feel daring? try the barbacoa taco, the tongue taco and.....on the weekends homemade Menudo better than anyplace Ive ever tasted. AMAZING. Get there early because they sell out FAST.testament to the quality and prices.Its worth the trip just to see a real Mexican MercadoHats off to you all.Mucho GustoJamie
Honestly one of my favorite storesThey have authentic goods that you just cant find anywhere else in town. And the Conchitas are to DIE FOR!!!😊🥰👍💯
Was super excited when Fargo location opened because the tortillas are amazing but customer service was terrible and atmosphere was very unwelcoming.
I having being there for a few years is awesome
Great little Mexican Market with a great little grill in back.
Small place with a great selection of Mexican goods that are hard to find elsewhere in the f/m area. The cashier was very nice and helpful as well!
Great little market with all the essentials for Mexican food.
This place is a joke went there because of positive reviews, but its awful. First they sold me 12 very small tamales for $13.50 . When I got home the sell buy date was 12/20/20 I bought them on 1/8/21. I purchase two pieces of Mexican sweet breads they were old, hard and stale. I also bought some menudo which I found when I got home had a chunk of ice on it. Also got a package of cheese and enchilada sauce. The total was $47. The lady and young man she was teaching about ringing up purchases went back and forth for five minutes. I think they were confused on costs. When I went there wasnt any freshly cooked food. There is a new restaurant where the old Perkins on highway 10 was. The food is good. In the last 10 days have eaten there 3 times.Hoping this wont be the only Mexican Market for long. LA Unica falls very short.
Tacos are amazing and lots of authentic goods to choose from!
One of the best authentic Mexican food in Minnesota, while you are at it they have some delicious bread, candy and drinks. I would totally recommend it.
Always have great food at a great price
Good food! Muy rica!
The daily takeout specials are awesome and the grocery side of the business is great too. I recommend taking home some handmade frozen tamales or barbacoa and pair with the famous “green sauce”.
My review is in regards to their frozen tamales only.I saw the reviews mentioning great tamales and so I came to buy 2 dozen. 2 different kinds, bean and cheese/ pork.Unfortunately these are awful. Small size, crumbly and poor taste. I cant even reheat them because they are falling apart. I spent almost $30 on them and I will have to throw them in some sort of casserole because they are unusable as tamales.There IS a chance I got a bad batch, but probably wont go back to try again unfortunately at that price point.
Great Food & People! Always a great experience!
They make their own tamales and flour tortillas. Omg, literally the best.
Best tacos de carne guisada... Love the store. Good customer service.
Delicious! The most authentic Mexican food in FM area. I’m from Southern California so I know my Mexican food. Great value, wonderful selection and friendly service. This is where I get my Mexican fix when I miss home.
A hidden gem of Mexican foods. And dont forget to try their baked goods and stand in line for the best lunch in town.
Go on Fridays to get fresh sweets. This place is awesome, they have almost everything you can think of. If they dont they will try to order it for you. The owners are great people!
This quiet little place offers amazing home-cooked authentic Mexican food. They also offer an assortment of hard to find Mexican spices, Seasonings and even Mexican sweet bread. They have a lot to offer in such a little store. What makes it even better it is family owned and they always treat their customers as if they were part of the family.
Good food great service.
One of the best places to stop if you like authentic mexican food!
Ive coming here for years, and have always had great food and the service is fantastic. Everyone whos ever helped me has been super helpful and kind. I would recommend coming here if your looking for some good authentic Mexican food.. definitely not for generic Mexican food..
Best pico sauce, salsa and tortillas. Made in the store!
Love the food!!! The customer service is always on point. Love supporting this hidden gem in the community.
Love this place, wish it was bigger
This is a hidden gem. Youll enjoy a grocery store with takeout food. The tamales are excellent. I like the spicy ones best. My friend was impressed with the tacos and homemade tortillas. Search Maps for La Unica. Enjoy the store. Its very good food and atmosphere.
The best Tacos in town on Fridays. Very friendly staff and reasonable prices. If you havent been here check it out. Its a bit out of the way, but definitely worth it. They told us they also have additional specials on their Facebook page.
Staff is always friendly and the food is great. Weekend breakfast burritos and the menudo are pretry good.
Only place to get the best in authentic Mexican food!
Awesome place, very friendly
My first visit.....I will be back soon!! Delicious!
Ordered my tacos that I wanted! Dont forget they do have mexican bread and cookies that will go with coffee anytime of the day.
Delicious food. Cheap prices. Super nice people
Highly recommend the spicy pork tamales - they are really, really good, and not too spicy but very flavorful. All of their tamales are good, small, and never dried out. We also ordered beans and rice, which was quite salty, but very edible. Nice people.
Great place for anything! They have great tamales and their breakfast is wonderful! Grab a sheet fill out your breakfast order (Sat and Sun only) hand it off and wait for some great food!
Excellent service
Only place worth getting authentic Mexican food. Everyone there is very pleasant and helpful. I will never be able to eat enchiladas anywhere ever again. I literally ate an entire bag of their cookies while writing this. Do yourself a favor and stop by and try it for yourself, they will not disappoint.
Overpriced.Either bland or overly salted food.
This place has it all. Great food, a family environment, great staff. And I love the smell of this place it reminded me of my child hood waiting for my Tia to let us eat the wonderful food. Will be returning over and over again.
Best and only Mexican market in the FM area. Changed my perspective on flour tortillas for life and make some of the best homemade sauces in the area.
Tamales were amazing ❤️
The Mexican Market makes it feel like I was shopping back home again! Feels good to have one in the area.
Friendly, patient staff. Great food. Tamales are awesome at a good price. Variety of salsas. Pan Dulces are delightful.
I drove two hours to get to this place, finding a Mexican Store is hard this far north. It was a waste of gas. Small store with very little selection and over priced items. The workers there were, though not rude, they were not exactly friendly. Dont plan on going there again, the Mexican Store in Long Prairie is better with more selection and better prices.
Ive bought sweet bread pan dulce for years. Not easy to find up N but still over priced. I will say the quality and flavor was amazing, but Ill never return thanks to the prices. Friendly and clean place.
Friendly staff and great selection. We love your porkrinds
Friendly and always polite.
Plenty of authentic food here. Way better than paradiso or mexican village. Friendly staff. Easy access from hwy.
Very positive and authentic atmosphere! Love going here. Fresh goodies all the time!
Delicious, authentic, fresh and reasonably priced to go tacos, and combo plates! Must try!
Had heard good things about La Unica, but my first experience there wasnt as such.I called in, and put an order in to be picked up at 3pm. When my girlfriend stopped to pick up my order it hadnt been set aside for me.I originally commented on their FB post with a couple questoins. My last comment was a complaint in relation to what happened.No one reached out to apologize.
To call this place a market is a stretch. I’ve seen bigger storefronts from people running stores out of theirs homes in Mexico. Got totally fooled by the website on the size and type of store this is. Was hoping on finding a real Mexican grocery store but all I found was a closet. People where very nice at lest and help me find some spices I knew I can’t find at Walmart. Didn’t have any of the food there that they supposedly had even though that was one of the things I was looking for. I saw some industrial cooking machines through a door when I was looking for help but didn’t bother asking about. Was already a big let down as soon as I walked in the door I didn’t want to make it worse.
Nice place to purchase authentic Mexican food. Owners were extremely helpful
Food is always top notch and traditional. Staff is always friendly and helpful. I frequent this establishment as much as possible.
Has everything you looking for
Since La Unica means The Only One it literally has Mexican Staples no one else close by has. They make a killing on the weekends with their Fresh Homemade Menudo, Breakfast Tacos, Especially their Barbacoba.
I love this store, just wish they sold carnitas or chicharones
Lots of ethnic over the border choices from fresh vegetables to candy they have it all. Beautiful art work on the outside of the building.
This joint is in a warehouse and its the best Mexican food in Fargo/Morehead. Forget Mangos tex mex garbage. Grab some authentic Mexican food to go and enjoy. Super friendly. Small menu but its all great. I had the Chimichangas and they were fire.
Good food decent selection needs better exterior for advertising
Things you cant find anywhere else. Great alternative on tamales made right there.
Nice and warm service, Good food,Friend brought me there my first time
Going here is definitely a must when we are in the area! Great food and great customer service as well.
Just had some of their tacos and my oh my were they absolutely delicious. Im sending my friends there!
They have expired items. The bags of tamarindos were $1.99 and they charged me $3.25. The employee called the manager and someone made a “mistake.” Other stores take ownership but NOT La Única. Not returning to this store for sure!!!
Always great food and service for a good price
I had the chicken flautas special and it was very good and inexpensive compared to other places nearby.
Very friendly staff and amazing food!
They Never have enough food for there hours.. not enough meat on there tacos.. normally theyre very nice, but not today lady behind the till was rude and neck full of hykeys looks very tacky notice there portions have been getting smaller n smaller.. disappointed..
Love products in store, the owners are amazing people and give back to the community highly recommend to check them out
Im from way out west, this place brings back good memories, so good.
Fresh, canned, authentic and ethnic Mexican food and products provided with friendly service each and every time I visit!
Seemed like they didnt want to wait on white customer. Got two packs of dried peppers, marked $1.99, and a two liter bottle of soda. Charged almost $8.00
Great Environment
Best tortillas and salsa in town! Their lunch plates are amazing as well!
Great place! Owners are very and helpful!! Thry also have great food!

I come for the pork tamales!! Yummy!
Great selection of some harder to find authentic Mexican ingredients.
Best in the area!❤
Great service and delicious food!
Very friendly staff, great food and products.
Its the only place ill go. It reminds me, when I was a young chavato in mazatlon mex. And the hot summers on the beach playing in the waves and drinking dos equis and patron shots.
Even Friday they get fresh pastries and empanadas!
Best breakfast tacos in FM!
