“Best Mercado around! Unbeatable prices, and the most friendly staff one could ever ask for! Food is quite enjoyable, although I don't order it often. Their breakfast burritos are worth it! They make an awesome variety of salsas as well and the Ceviche? AMAZING. Have to try! We love to get the Fajita de Pollo meat, Carne Asada, and Pollo Asado and all of them are top notch. Check it out!”
“This is like the best market in California. It has everything you want to purchase from the Middle East!! It's like walking through the aisles of many markets in the Middle East. Very well done Najat!”
“These guys are awesome! Great customer service, super friendly, and always have what I enjoy in stock, if not I’ll ask about it and they are always on top of it! Overall, they have a great variety of things for everyone to enjoy ?? They treat you like one big family. Easy 5 stars ⭐️”
“Sadly it's right across the street from the park so alot of adults buy beer from here then go to the park and drink. I've never had anything happen just a sad factor of the area to consider.”
“Such a good variety of everything, pastries, meats, fruit, veggies, wine, liquor, and everyday essentials too!At the meat counter, they had plenty of friendly staff on hand to help customers, several cashier to get you in and out quick, and even food/restaurant/counter service right when you walk in.And the cakes! Gorgeous!Very clean and well maintained too.”
“The staff who work here are all so friendly and helpful! I didn't realise there was prepared food, and was offered samples and received a beautiful lunch!The spices and dry fruits, nuts and legumes section is also wonderful!!Thank you all for making my day today ”

“The new owners have made dramatic improvements, installing a beer cave that allows for a greater variety of beer available to purchase. Improvements in aisle displays make shopping easier and more convenient.”
“This Aldi is clean and had a lot of options. I've become a newbie to Aldi but appreciate their prices and quality of items. They have decent prices for fruits and meat. They sell some of the stuff you'd also see in a Walmart or Target (snacks and drinks) but also have their own items you can only find here. Their quarter system to use their carts (guessing to prevent theft) and their option to use your own bags here add to their Earth friendly atmosphere. I can see myself shopping here more often. The bottom line is they do sell quality food items here.”
“I stopped in to Smart & Final today, 12-13 and was having so much trouble with the online app. Andrea and Michelle were so helpful. Couldn't have gotten through it without them. Thanks ladies!! I love this store. I stopped going to Walmart because it is so busy and no one to help you ever. So to wrap it up. Try Smart Final! Great store and the nicest staff.”
“Clean grocery store that are kind of unique with their chips and chocolate selections. They have a big inventory of cosmetics and detergents. Their groceries are good quality, but I found Walmart is cheaper in some of them. Not that many workers are available to answer questions though”
“THANK YOU FOUNTAIN LIQUOR! You went Above and beyond for my order 2nd time I have had problems with doordash but you have stepped up to the plate and hit a homerun. I think I may contact your establishment in for my future needs MARIE O.”

It's a one-stop shop for all your needs. The prices are competitive, and I appreciate the occasional discounts and promotions they have.What truly sets Leo's apart is their commitment to quality. The produce is always fresh and top-notch, and I've never been disappointed with the items I've purchased here.The store is well-maintained and clean, which is essential for a market. I also appreciate that they take COVID-19 safety seriously, with clear signage and sanitizing stations.Overall, Leo's Market is more than just a store; it's a community hub.

“Taco Tuesday? Make that Taco Thursday! These guys started a taco stand outside that's open Thursday 4pm-8, and Friday/Saturday 4pm-9. They make Carne and Pollo tacos and are the best around! I normally have to drive to Chula just to get tacos this good! The salsa is amazing as well, spicy and goes great with the tacos. Grab some beer and tacos to go!”
“They sell to the general public as well. Very good pricing on fresh fruits and vegetables everything they sell is healthy. I’m a staff so helpful and so nice! :)”
“Great family owned business and has a wide selection of items to accommodate customers from fresh fruit and vegetables; frozen foods and meats to household cleaning supplies and personal toiletries. Lots of items for your personal and family essentials; walking distance and convenient especially for hotel guests staying nearby.”
“Stopped in today to just grab some ice and Discovered an authentic Carniceria inside this Mom and Pop neighborhood shop. I also was pleasantly surprised by some good old-fashioned customer service! This husband and wife team offered service with a smile as well as "anticipating need," one of the cornerstones of customer service. If ever in the neighborhood stop by and see for yourself. Cheers!”

“This is a great small business market. Great prices on produce, which can range from super fresh to past prime. Their herbs are fresh and fragrant and a great deal compared to the little plastic containers of herbs from grocery stores. They have a great selection of Arabic or middle eastern prepared foods that rival local restaurants- including family meals for five with rice salad and kebabs, they have a bakery that turns out amazing traditional bread, and a deli bar with a great selection of hummus salads and olives.”

“this month has been really hard for me. I have a stroke and been having money taken out of my purse in the hospital. I was short on cash. We ran out of food so I went to the store and got sell items. I counted the money and thought I had enough but when I got to the register I was $10 short so I was taken out items to return to the store and the manager came up and gave me a $10 coupon so I could get everything that was in my basket. This is why I always shop this Albertson's. They are the best when I get home my brother and I ate good for the first time in days , thank you Albertsons”
“It's been a while since I've gone grocery shopping here. Usually Costco or Trader Joes fulfill what I need but today I wanted something different and more stuff not found in those places. I visited the Meat Section and got some fresh seafood and meat. Christian behind the counter was very helpful and kind. As I made my way thru checkout, Emilio and Lupe took great care of me.”
“Organized and clean grocery store in the Ranchi San Diego area. Their produce is fresh and the store is welcoming. Perfect for Thanksgiving shopping and for organic and other zero sugar zero fat products for people on diet. They have a selection of vegan too. Their bakery is not comparable to Albertsons across the street. I prefer Albertsons more due to the more variety and the freshness of the cakes their”
“Smart 'N Final is my one-stop shop. They've got everything I need. I am impressed with their quality of produce at good prices. Plus, they are the closest grocery store to me. I like Costco's prices, but not the traffic, parking, and shopping cart traffic inside that big box store. I also like Trader Joe's, but it's too far to drive for a few items.I'd give 5 stars if the checkout lines moved quicker. They tend to be often understaffed at the registers.”
