    Delicious!

    Love these Wafers and delicious Panettone. I will be back soon to purchase more. Thank you Cardenas for carrying these products.

    Very disappointed with the butchers service at this location. My mom bought her meat to make caldo de res and the butcher called her over and said you forgot a piece of meat, and when she got home the piece he sold her was not hers and it was smelling bad stop taking advantage of the elderly people, selling them your spoiled meat.

    So much frosting !!barely any cake . Will not order anymore from here.

    My aunt ordered a cake for thanksgiving and asked for not a lot of frosting and the cake is 90% frosting and 10% cake . It's very infuriating that we ask for not so much and yet it's this much.

    I can't believe this place!!! the kitchen is a wreck. grease on one off the extension cords where it plugs a next extension. the Fire Sprinkler is caked over with grease as well! the vents for swamp coolers to cool the area is layered grease as if it was smoothed over like a sweet topping. if the origin owner from the tortilla factory days in Chino saw this place I'm sure he would fire managers and buy it back from the Chinese group who bought it. All the Mexican Market's with the name El Super Cardenas La Superior are very low class and standards. I took pictures of the Cardenas and im sure the fire department would close this place. if I was the manager I'd resign or risk it with the owners to get the money and a overnight crew to mop that place till shine. I can't believe people buy the food from that kitchen then go home to feed the family

    They have good sweet bread, but their prices are high and also they charge EBT user's for a plastic bag, and it should be free.

    Found this in the beans. The chile stem was in the guac.

    Just because the majority of us here are low income doesn't give them the right to be selling low quality hot food that's ridiculously expensive.

I had a wonderful phone conversation with the owner Ben who personally took my order. We agreed upon a date and time two weeks out since I was going to be out of town for the 4th of July week. They called while I was out of town to confirm the date and time (between 10-11 am) which was great! When I arrived to the store with my son around 11:15 because of the heavy traffic on 91W I went to the counter and was told by a young female that I needed to go to the pay counter. She was curt and not helpful. There was only three people ahead of me so no problem. But the elder gentleman in front of me, who was being helped by the young man who would eventually help me, took an exceptionally long time with his order. I'm just here to pay and pick up. No problem, I'll be patient and keep waiting. Two other costumers are helped by the female counter person and finally the elder customer leaves with his order and I'm next. The young male counter person then waits for me to initiate the conversation and doesn't greet me with a smile or hello or how can I help. I brush it off. I tell him I'm here to pick up my order, a whole pig and give him my last name. He fumbles around a few seconds and then asks how to spell my name and eventually finds my ticket order and asks what time. The time is written at the top of the ticket he failed to notice. I pay for the order. He mutters someone will be out with my order and disappears. No thank you, no attentiveness like he gave the older gentleman in front of me. Again, I've been in my car with my son for over two hours from San Diego in traffic and this fella couldn't give me five minutes of courtesy. I'm waiting, and waiting and waiting while others eventually come into the store and are being helped and leaving. The older female worker at the pay counter is still there helping customers while the younger female at the deli counter is now apparently on a break and making herself lunch. She stops momentarily when a customer comes in for deli service. I'm still waiting by the counter to make sure I'm at least acknowledged but I don't see the young male counter worker who apparently left for lunch since it's now noon. The older female worker can probably see on my face that I'm not happy and says to me he's working on my order. He? Who's he? I am just here to pay and pick order between 10-11. How much time and trouble could it be to put this order together which was made two weeks prior? A different gentlemen finally arrives with three boxes and two large paper bags that comprise my order. On the way out the older female worker says goodbye and was very courteous. At this point I'm pretty upset because this is not a large haul and this order could've easily been second and not 45 minutes! I arrive home after the two hour drive back home to SD and looking forward to the meat, especially the sausages and putting it into the freezer which I cleared out in preparation for the meat. My older son is home to help. As we are sorting and placing the meat I notice that there are no sausages. It's just sausage meat but no links. I guess it's my fault for assuming and not specifying sausage links on at peat some of the order. It was a huge letdown. I had array went out to purchase rolls and buns for a bbq this weekend and to have friends and family over. Oh well. You live and you learn. At least the bacon was great.

There was also plenty of parking and several seating options inside. We decided to order a little bit of everything so we could try as much of the menu as possible. We had the brisket, brisket burnt ends, rib tips, several sides, and both desserts. The brisket burnt ends were definitely my favorite. They were smoky, tender, and full of flavor. The brisket had a beautiful bark and was cooked perfectly, and the rib tips were just as good. I was honestly just as impressed with the sides. My favorites were the spicy mac and cheese and the potato salad. The potato salad was creamy and was the perfect thing to cool your mouth after eating the steamed jalapeños. The coleslaw and green beans were also really refreshing and balanced out all the rich barbecue. The biggest surprise for me was the sweet yams. It was so flavorful that it tasted like it had been slow-cooked in brown sugar and spices for hours. For dessert, I tried both the banana pudding and the peach cobbler. The banana pudding was the winner for me, but I also liked that the peach cobbler wasn't overly sweet. Even the cornbread was delicious. I ended up pairing it with the barbecue baked beans and was a great combo. Our total came to about $110 before tax and tip, but we ordered enough food to try a wide variety of meats, sides, and desserts, so I thought it was well worth it. Overall, there wasn't a single thing we ordered that I wouldn't get again. If you're looking for great Texas-style barbecue in the Inland Empire, I'd definitely recommend giving this place a try. I'll definitely be back to work my way through the rest of the menu.

There were only about five customers in line, yet the service was extremely slow. I placed my order for meat and then waited to move down the line, but ended up standing there for over 20 minutes just to pay. There were only three customers ahead of me, and the staff seemed disorganized and overwhelmed--mainly due to a single to-go order. Meanwhile, everyone else's food was just sitting there getting cold. The customer in front of me even left to use the restroom and came back to more waiting, which says a lot about the delay. What made it more frustrating was seeing the to-go order continue adding items while several of us were stuck waiting just to check out. At that point, it felt like enough was enough. I would strongly suggest having one dedicated cashier and another person serving. It's not a good look for a restaurant running a hot line to struggle with just five customers. Hopefully this was just an off day, because I've had good experiences here before--but today definitely missed the mark.

I was turning into the Stater Bros. shopping center when the driver decided not to pull over and instead continued driving. Once I realized she was not going to stop, I followed the vehicle. She eventually pulled into a handicap parking space at Cooley Market. I immediately got out of my car to inspect my bumper and saw the older woman also look at the front of her vehicle before going into the market. I went inside and approached her to explain that she had hit me from behind and had driven away without stopping. She was very nonchalant about the situation and, instead of taking responsibility, claimed that I had hit her. I told her that was not true and that she had hit me. She eventually began apologizing, so I went outside to take pictures of both vehicles. While I was taking pictures, a man came out of the market. I assume he was either an employee, the owner, or possibly a family member of the woman. Instead of calmly asking what happened or hearing my side of the story, he immediately became aggressive and tried to intimidate me. He said he was going to check the store's cameras. I told him he was welcome to do so because I had followed the woman directly from the Stater Bros. shopping center. He then made the unbelievable comment, asking what my problem was because the airbags in my car hadn't gone off and questioning why it was such a big deal. At that point, I told him I was going to call the police. He immediately told the woman to leave. The reason I am writing this review is because I was extremely disappointed by how this situation was handled. The driver appeared to try to leave the scene of an accident without stopping, then denied hitting me. Instead of helping establish what happened, the man who came out of the market aggressively confronted me without even hearing my side of the story and then told the woman to leave when I said I would call the police. Whether or not the airbags deployed has absolutely nothing to do with whether an accident occurred. What matters is that my vehicle was hit, the other driver initially left without stopping, and I was treated aggressively when I tried to address the situation. I hope the store takes situations like this more seriously and understands that customers should not be made to feel intimidated when they are simply trying to address an accident that occurred.
