Supermercado Ortega is a small grocery store known for its fresh meats and produce. It offers a variety of delicious foods, including weekend specials like carnitas, barbacoa, menudo, and tamales every day. Their carnitas are highly praised as the best in Hammond, with many customers enjoying the hot, flavorful meat and freshly harvested produce like avocados. The store also serves tasty birria on Sundays, tacos, burritos, and tortas. The staff is friendly and helpful, often going out of their way to assist customers, such as warming tortillas or offering advice. Despite sometimes long lines on weekends, visitors find the quality of the meats and hot foods worth the wait. The store’s convenient hours, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on weekdays and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekends, make it a popular spot for those seeking good food and friendly service.
The meat is very fresh, very delicious, the chicken steaks are well cut! The carnitas and barbecue are very tasty! The tamales for my taste are a little salty... Shipping can be made! Most things from Mexico can be found!
