“Great variety, love the market feel this establishment has. Their carniceria has great cuts and has variety as well, I always get the ranchera for grilling, well worth it.”
“I love the store mainly for their meat and deli counters, its like a step back to old meat counters. Their Black garlic pepper marinade is phenomenal and the butchers are always happy to recommend items to you.”
“I had an incredible shopping experience. All of the staff were super friendly and very helpful. Would definitely recommend shopping here, and I will definitely be returning. I had the pleasure of talking to the store manager, Tina, and she was able to answer all of my questions, as well as help me with everything that I needed. They provide quality products with very good deals, and made grocery shopping a wonderful experience.”

5801 Calle Real, Goleta“Classic mid-century, unupdated grocery store in Goleta. Cash & credit cards accepted. Friendly staff. Smaller meat section but a robust liquor section. Good basic fruit & veggie selection.”
“I found this place by accident (I was trying to get some snacks at La Tia Joanna nearby but they were closed). I walked in because of their sign for $2.50 coconuts. I bought two, they cut and packed them for me along with the juice. I also got a small container of cut papaya and jicama. All mouthwatering and delicious. People were friendly and helpful and I'll definitely be back, I'm looking forward to trying the salsa. Great piñata selection!”

“Probably the best option for semi bulk groceries. Offers good quantity at a low price. Imagine Costco without members ship but less packets. Cashiers are nice. It's got everything you need really.”
“I love this market. It's definitely my favorite place to shop in Goleta. My fiance and I have been coming here for years and we're always happy with our shopping experiences here and always treated very well by the staff who are always very friendly and kind. There's so many unique and hard to find items here. I really love coming here. Thanks Indo China Market for the amazing foods and great employees!”
“This is a decent little market tucked into the the old town area. It's over by the Toyota dealership. They have all kinds of Mexican food items. Real authentic, but they also have prepared items like tacos and burritos and tortillas. If you're in Goleta and looking for some authentic food, I would for sure give them a try.”

5801 Calle Real suite d, Goleta“BASIC STORE WITH EXTRAORDINARY WORKERS:This is a relatively small-sized Albertson's, and yet one of the busier locations due to it's prominent space in the Calle Real Center in Goleta. It's not fancy, and in fact, is likely overdue for a much-needed makeover. However, it's clean and the workers go out of their way to smile and extend a little cheer, despite their busy days. I have had the pleasure of getting to know a few of the checkers as I often find myself stocking up at this location. Things I would not change:***Their lovely workers and their great attitude. Things I would change:*** More diversity of products (such as what I find at the Buellton Albertson's location).*** A much larger baked goods section or actually adding a small on-site bakery. Remember to say hi and thank your hard working essential service workers as you peruse.”

“Is basically a full blown grocery store in Isla Vista! Has a very wide selection, and a good amount of international food items. Very well stocked with everything someone living in IV would need. Helpful staff as well!!”
“I worked for Vons Grocery Company for many years - for a short time, I worked at Vons Turnpike in Santa Barbara. I understand how difficult it is to be on your feet all day and engage with (and pacify) the public. The grocery business is hard work. Therefore, whenever I recognize employees who go out of their way to satisfy me, I will shout-out my thanks. Here goes: To "Sushi John" who makes me a fresh Chef Special (artful and delicious!) nearly every Friday afternoon, and John's Service Deli "neighbor", Trisha, whose kindness and good humor are sincerely appreciated, I offer you both my heartfelt thank yous!! - Your friend(s), Rebecca (and Logan)”

5170 Hollister Ave, Goleta“Nico in the floral department was very helpful and so kind in helping me get balloons for my work event. He worked with my schedule and even picking the colors of the balloon over the phone. This is the best service and deals on helium balloons in the area. Highly recommend!”
“At first I felt silly writing a review of a grocery store, but I feel I have to because this Ralph's is my favorite grocery store in SB. The staff is so sweet! I have a 6 month old baby, and I had forgotten my stroller and was carrying him. Someone walked by and saw my hands were full, and without saying anything went and got me a cart. It was very sweet”
“This Trader Joe's has the best parking lot of any location in the Santa Barbara/Goleta area. A definite plus. Also, they have a slightly larger store meaning the inside feels less cramped, and the shelves are always stocked.”
