    5 Stars for the food alone. Not a decorated interior, but still clean. The Staff was very kind and the prices were more than fair. There was plenty of seating if you were going with friends. We got the mixed pupusas, asada tacos, and an extra side of rice and beans. I was pleasantly surprised with how much I enjoyed the slaw that came with the pupusas. The tacos were the authentic style I craved for a while. Looking forward to going back and trying new things. We looked around at the market after Dinner; they also had a great selection with fair prices.

    If you haven't tried their food, you're missing out on this hidden gem!! I finally got a chance to check this place out after driving by multiple multiple times. This is one of those hole in the wall places so you know its delicious! Behind the grocery store they have a little restaurant area where you can dine in or get take out. My partner and I were craving some pupusas so we got 1 one kind. Not only did they come out with gooey cheese but also super soft and chewy. My favorite was the pork and cheese because the meat was so flavorful. The cheese and loroco (a type of flower) was also solid. It tasted kinda like a slightly sweet but also seasoned broccoli florets to me. The gordita lengua was also delicious! I haven't had a quality gordita for years now and their was crispy and packed with chewy, well-seasoned lengua pieces. I wish they gave me more lettuce but the combination of the fried tortilla, meat, veggies, sour cream, and salsa was perfecto! Their salsa also had just the right spice kick - aka went well with everything I put it on! Got to try some of my partner's beef burrito and it was so flavorful and seasoned nicely! I appreciated their of meat to cheese to beans/rice ratio! Staff were super nice/smiley and patient with us. Its not the most pretty/sanitary place but the food sure is yummy! The store also sell lots of cool things and we were able to find some Latino/Mexican snacks from our childhood. They have a mini-parking lot too which was quite convenient. Hands down would come back for their food!

    Steak taco, rice, homemade salsas, delicious Mexican beer.

    Authentic Hispanic food, they have a buffet style lunch and you can also order from the menu, tgey offer from a whole deep fried fish to tacos and soup. I always enjoy coming to this place and the service is good.

    My Latina friend took me here telling me it's one of the most authentic tasting places she has found in Richmond. Papusas were 10/10 and the carne asada tacos were so fresh and had incredible flavor. Traditional style with cilantro, white onion and avocad kn for. Tortilla. Served with a verse salsa that had a little kick to it! Will definitely come back and try something else. J saw some soup dishes on the menu that I want to try, but I was craving tacos! Everything is very reasonably priced !! And very friendly staff.

    Food was good. Service was terrible. Meal total was wrong three times. They couldn't give me an actual check.

    Stella's was a great spot to start a fun day of co-working and exploring in downtown Richmond. My…read morecolleague and I were having breakfast next door at Perly's, and stopped into Stella's for a couple of iced cherry blossom lattes to get the day started in style. This little shop is full of Richmond cuteness. From specialty groceries, to locally-made art, to unique gifts and treasures, I could easily have filled my suitcase with goodies. I ended up buying a gorgeous postcard here (designed by a local artist) - the design featured the coffee shops of Richmond. Of course, I forgot to take a pic (who me?) but it was adorbs. The latte was delish, too! I don't usually like cherry-flavored things, but on a warm morning this was the perfect touch. The edible flowers made it just that much more delightful.

    I am a fan of Stella's Grocery. They're always in the area when I need an afternoon pick me up or a…read morecute gift. I usually come to this location for coffee, specifically coffee during a long wait at Perly's next door. I love their coffee options. This is an intimate/smaller Stella's Grocery, but it has all the local goods the others have packed in. There is a good amount of seating at the front too. You can order your coffee drinks at the front. They also have all the standard Stella's Greek food to go options. At the very front you're greeted by cute Richmond souvenirs and gifts. They have favorites in store like Nightingale Ice Cream sandwiches, Blanchard's coffee beans, Mad Kitchen Co. postcards, and more. I'd recommend getting a drink from here!

    Sun-shelter parking! How awesome is that? I'm traveling this week for the Fourth of July and…read morevisiting my hometown, and this, ahem, relatively new location, replacing the Pleasant's Hardware. As I said, they have sun sheltered parking off to the left of the main parking, a great option when it's 99 degrees outside, and a decent rain shelter too, though it would be a bit imperfect. The store is typical Whole Foods though a tad smaller than the location I'm used to, it still has great options for vegetables especially organic, and other healthy items like kombuchas and limited ingredient prepared foods and some great meat and cheese options. I asked for directions to find an item on the shopping list and had a friendly response, and our checkout person was friendly and helpful too. The market was busy and but not overcrowded and there is a lot of space around the perimeter (they say shop the perimeter for the best foods and WF seems to have given thought to giving you more room for that and a tad less for the aisles, a decent approach for my tastes. They were having an issue with their freezers on this day but had the wherewithal to direct customers to the location the frozen items had been moved to, a very customer-friendly move. The AC kept things nice and cool inside on a very hot day. And the meat department was even more chilled. From my Mother, While WF can be a bit more expensive, they offer Prime Deals often and carry a 365 prime brand that is dependably low priced and high quality. Watch for a once a year ice cream discount too!

    I am left to write a review about this since I've talked to someone in store and online and over…read morethe phone but the fact that when you return home with a three year old and find your bread is moldy and you cannot easily process a refund is reason enough to not go back. Do not tell me in this day and age that is not possible. That is a choice. That's a choice Amazon and Whole Foods is making to make the lives of their customers harder. I have a prime account. I check out my own items. I use the card you promote and have a digital receipt. Yall can laugh and hang up on me and say that isn't the way you do things. That's fine but I'll just got to Kroger then. Because of the way they do things. When there's choices treating people fairly instead of giving them the run around matters. Especially when your products are expensive. Maybe Whole Foods and Amazon will change their policies if enough of us say enough is enough. Probably not but it's worth adding five minutes to a 45 minutes saga of unsuccessfully getting a refund for moldy bread. As if there aren't enough reasons to cancel prime.
