Came here to buy dinner ingredients when staying in the area. Got the pre chopped and marinated chicken for tacos. The chicken was excellent, very tasty and saved prep time. Service was friendly and helpful and prices were good.

We sailed here to Santa Barbara from Bay Area. This store is a short walk from marina, the prices are fantastic especially the meat (2 x 2 thick T-Bone for under $11.00 on special WOW). The produce looks good, tastes good and doesnt rot two days after purchase like 90% of stores. Its on the smaller side but carries a nice selection of many daily items.

Review №33

For walking distance this place is ok with me. The staff is friendly enough. The vegetable selection and price is reasonable. Great spice selection. The deli is good but like another reviewer said, they cant be bothered to trim and cut something to your liking. I will update on my next visit. Hitting the beach for a BBQ? This is the place to go. Rice and beans are a bit overpriced. Overall three and a half stars.

Review №34

They had low prices on produce. Cucumbers are 2 for $1..00. Tomatoes were also a great deal.

Good enough but not clean

Review №38

This is definitely the place to go to buy Street Taco-sized corn tortillas. You know, those small ones? They are soft, and if you dont refrigerate them, will keep practically forever on your counter, and still be perfect for your soft taco meals. Glad a friend told me about them! Get them over by the meat counter, not with the rest of the tortillas.

It is a very small store, but with a surprisingly good selection. For a touristy town like Santa Barbara, the prices are quite alright. The staff is really nice.

Review №44

The meat is cleaner and fresher here then the other smaller hispanic stores, the parking is small and often full on weekend but worth it, i like coming to this one more then the one in goleta because it is cleaner at this store, most of the staff has been here for a few years, the only thing is the staff should greet people or acknowledge people around the store, they just stare at you and dont ask if you need any help.

Review №45

My favourite place for making groceries! They have always plantains, yuca, fresh vegetables, good meat, and great attention!

Ch
Review №46

Cheaper than Ralphs. Not nearly as busy as Ralphs. Friendlier than Ralphs. Latino focused produce an dry goods. They have a totally respectable produce section as well!So, are you itching for plantains and black beans? Come here. Youll have money left!Speak Spanish at the butcher counter. It will make your life easier. Y, es facil. Dos piernas de Pollo, por favor.

Review №80

Been shpoing there friday, the food selection and cleanliness is remarable (even has a very small kosher chicken & turkrey fridge), the amount of produce employee isnt sufficient (at last on a peak time such as Friday aternoon).The main reason that i will not go back there so often as i wish for some more shopping is the high prices, I understand that organic cost more, but you should he rasonable and not overprice produce, there is an acfeptable markip for the convenience and location and the fact they are organic, but with those prices it is rediculosly expenssive.
