“Love the chicken plate, comes with rice, beans, salad, salsa and tortillas! The best chicken in the 831 area, the food is so authentic and absolutely love the food section! Prices are reasonable and you get a lot of food!”
“I noticed some people complain about the pricing. I have no problem paying for not only good quality Arrachera but the best tasting in all the surrounding areas. I come from Gilroy and now I have family coming from San Jose. Haven't tried the chicken or seafood but I will review on that when I try it.”

1912 Main St, Watsonville“Went in to grab some pizza dough and sauce. I didn't find it at first. When I asked an employee restocking the shelves he was really motivated to help me: sifting through some shelves finding the product I missed.He also pointed me to the deli where I might be able to grab fresh dough. When asking the deli counter if they still had some dough left I was helped quickly and left with what I needed for a lot cheaper than I anticipated.”

1000 Main St, Watsonville“The store is not too big but it is well organized. There is a good selection of wine at reasonable prices. There are good but small, well stocked dairy and produce sections. The meat department has a basic selection at fair prices. The store is stocked with the necessities and has a good overall selection of products. I have not waited too long in the check out lines which is nice.”
“This place is amazing. The food is so fresh and delicious and they have great pre-made options for on the go. The coffee is delicious too. They were conveniently located for me as I was across the street unloading a truck. They are super friendly too. I definitely recommend them. They are the only reason I would be okay with returning to this receiver just to get more food.”
“Unique little place to shop. I’m from out of town and stopped in for some minor stuff. Was surprised at all the products I’ve never seen before in any other store. They even have a little taco/burrito place in the back of the store with amazing food. Everyone spoke Spanish but when they realized I did not they were friendly and accepted my disability lol. Parking lot is a bit small but I got my bobtail (tractor only) semi in there no problem. I really had a good time shopping there looking at all the unique stuff.”
“Bad a** place forever loyal a little over priced but forever my corner store the owners and staff are great their menudo is good and their chilly verde lunch burritos are damn good”
“This place is only been on site I don't know, maybe 1.5 or 2 years and become so convenient for everyone around. At least for me, I am very pleased that it's here. Very happy.”
“This place is great, there is always helpful/ staff except for one young lady with straight black hair. I wish i could of gotten her name, ive only seen her 2xs and both times she seemed bothered by working there. The young lady helped me with my purchase, gave me my receipt, but did not tell me thank u, or to have a nice day. Not even a here you go or see u next time. No communication from her at all. Ill make sure to avoid her next month i go in/ get her name”
“The friendly neighborhood market! Super kind and down to Earth, the cashier was courteous and attentive, greeting every individual as they walked in and making sure you found what you were looking for as you were checking out. Unlike many other convenience stores, the shop was incredibly clean, organized, and well stocked. I was able to find what I was looking for quick and was headed out the door in about a minute. Great vibes and convenience all around! Thank you for the wonderful experience and swift service, cheers!- A Princely Review ?”
“I ate food to go through door dash from this location, and I didn't know what to expect. It was packaged really neatly. The drink was in a plastic bag within lidded cup, and the taco play and burrito were covered in foil. I was pleasantly surprised! The food was also hot and the drink was nice and cold! This is probably my favorite horchata so far, which isn't compared to many others like 3 places. It's really smooth and creamy. For a grocery store restaurant take out food, I recommend. Usually, I only ever bean, cheese, rice burrito or tacos. The taco was delicious it had a lot of meat. The taco ordee had radish and lime on the side. I like the way the limes were cut, in the triangle shape so it's easier to squeeze, unlike the corners being cut. If you like plain burritos like myself, I would recommend.”
“As far as comida para llevar(food to go)I just had an awesome burrito de carnitas that I watched being prepared at an excellent price. I used to always go to the taco truck down the street but this place has won me over, the grocery store is not too bad either with it's meat counter and produce section I'll be coming back!”
“I followed a sign that said "food & drink 3 miles" off the freeway, and by gum, 20 miles later, I found this nice little market. They had food & drink! ?”
“Great place for all your food needs, at this place you will see everything clean and organized, there is even always somebody continuously walking through the entire store making sure everything is in place.”
“It's a different world at Cardenas Market. I was amazed at the diversity of everyday grocery staples as well, they offer an active customer service counter that even offers check cashing service. The meat dept is top quality. All the staff strike me as proffesional and friendly.”
