    Most amazing sando I've had in my life. No further questions. Such a gem. Go here but let me cut you in line.

    Meatball Sandwich
    Sandra S.

    The service was excellent... the Meatball Sandwich was SO SALTY! Geez! It looked so delicious (see picture) but OMG! I'll come back and try something different next time...the low stars are based solely on the food not the service.

    Italian Beef with bell pepper. I added provolone cheese.

    Great local spot that was suggested by someone who lives here. I always try to fi d a non corporate place to eat when I'm out of town Very friendly staff when you order. Classic old school family owned Italian Delicatessen. I ordered the Italian Beef with Bell Pepper and added provolone cheese. Everything had great flavor and the bread was SO fresh and soft. It really sealed the deal on the sandwich.

    Exactly how we remembered

    Frequented Dominick's for lunch when we first moved to Fallbrook in 2011. We left in 2013 and hadn't been back since. Moved back up here in 2018 and decided to try them again for lunch today after 11 years, and it was just as good as we remembered. The bread, the toppings, the meat and of course, the avocado! Will be back again soon.

    Italian goods

    Great little Italian deli, everything made fresh. I've never been to a place with so many extra options, which is great! Sandwiches were phenomenal, so much so that I didn't even get a picture of them. We ordered the BLT and Italian Beef with peppers. Service was great, staff was friendly and greeted everyone. There is even a little dinning area in the next room for those who want to eat there. If I'm in the area again I'd definitely come back and try another sandwich.

    What a wonderful store! The real Cadbury chocolates, violet Crump, you name the brand and it's here…read moreat This origins world foods market. Service was great as I walked in I was given a salutation, and asked if I needed assistance as I browsed. They had meat pies from England. Play smells great, very friendly open atmosphere, enough for a wheelchair or mobile device to get through each market aisle. The only thing I'd like to mention is the fact that a few of the items that I would get here that I'm familiar with I can purchase a few dollars cheaper elsewhere. However, if I want to buy it all in one location, and save gas money and try something new then this is the place to be so therefore it gets five stars. The community appreciated this unique grocery store. It was really nice seeing free chocolates for the kids sign outside as well.

    What a cool shop! They have so many unique goods from mostly Europe and South Africa. Prices are…read morepretty good, considering they import pretty much everything. The shop is also very well organized and their offerings range from snacks (sweet, salty, savory, mainly) to condiments, teas, coffees, sauces and spices...they even have frozen goods, some decor, and some pots. When I went, there was also a couple of discount carts. Plus, they handed out samples! I didn't recognize much, so I asked for a rundown and some recommendations, which was really helpful. I came away with some Tim Tams, Dallmayr coffee beans, Monaco espresso, Tayto chips, and some teas, cookies, and cakes to try. Service is pretty friendly, and parking is super easy in the lot.

All so very delicious! My own Michigan Polish/Maliszewski family (I am fourth generation, back in Lincoln Park, and still cook Polish for my family when I visit there) did not garnish savory farmer's cheese pierogis with caramelized onions and scallions dipped in garlic-sour cream sauce or ever add fresh dill to the filling --but it is a delicious touch! ) In Michigan, we boiled them slightly in salted water till they floated to the top, drained the water off, then lightly browned them in butter and served them alongside a dollop of cold sour cream. I am very impressed at the quality of the food here, the lightness of the dumpling dough, and definitely had a delicious dinner in my car, a first for me in the 36 years I've lived in CA. (I brought my polka-dancing shoes along as well, but no band was playing in the parking lot outside!- does anyone know of a place for polka dancers like me near San Diego?). Rita Maliszewska-Farkas

    The store seems very clean and organized. Hadn't shopped there in years but had business in…read moreFallbrook. I bought 6 fried chicken legs that were fresh. I didn't realize the kid put them in a plastic bag and then into another bag that fried chicken usually comes in like at Albertsons (they have great, crispy fried chicken). I finished my shopping and a nice kid helped me with my groceries to the car. I hadn't eaten since yesterday and I opened the bag of chicken and it was completely soggy! Disgusting. I couldn't even pick it up without it sliding from my fingers. I removed the plastic bag but it was too gross to eat. I went back into the store to ask for chicken this time that is NOT in a plastic bag. Not to mention hot plastic is full of chemicals! I spoke to the manager and she confirmed they put fried chicken in a plastic bag! Why?? Exactly who does that? I returned to the chicken stand with permission from the manager and asked the gal to give me replacement chicken (per Monica, store manager-I think that was her name) and the employee started rolling her eyes at the other employee. Shame on you, ma'am....do you treat everyone with disrespect? Very reluctant to help me. Absolutely no empathy, kindness or compassion or understanding of what happened. Was more interested in eye rolling with her compadre. While I was waiting, all of a sudden the chicken just dropped out of the bottom of the bag all over the floor! So it's no wonder they put the chicken in a plastic bag inside the actual chicken bag! THE BAG IS TOO FLIMSY AND CHEAP TO HOLD FRIED CHICKEN! GET SOME GOOD BAGS!!! After seeing this completely ridiculous attitude I asked they put the replacement chicken in one of the cardboard containers behind the case. Got more attitude. Then she started doing the price tag. I explained I had already spoken to the manager and it was an even exchange. Again, attitude like I was a real pain in the a$$. What the hell is wrong with people who act like I'm the problem!?!!' I have been in the service industry my entire life and NEVER have I treated anyone (even a legitimate pain in the a$$) like I was treated today. I even apologized for the chicken falling on the floor. I was mortified. Another manager (older guy) was in the isle pretending not to hear the issue and he didn't make an effort to help. So I asked him if anyone had complained about this. Nope! I was the only one....EVER! Here's my question; who eats soggy fried chicken? Not Col. Sanders! Nobody like soggy fried chicken. I ate one piece of the new chicken and it lacked flavor. Threw the rest out. It's hard to find good help that treat the customer with kindness. Kindess doesn't cost anything...but it makes you feel good when you are nice to people. So sorry I shopped there today and bothered you ladies who graced everyone with your presence today. The floral manager is a very sweet lady as she directed me to a manager.

    I didn't appreciate Major Market as much as I do now. I've known this store for as long as I could…read moreremember; I am a Fallbrook native and my mom would always take us here. As a kid I didn't like going here because I didn't think it was as "nice" as Lucky's (aka Albertson's)...how wrong I was!!! Major Market is so much better than Albertsons by a long shot. The produce is better, the hot food is better, and they have a lot of niche/local baked goods that you can't find in most mainstream grocery stores. Not only that but the prices are not too bad, especially for an independent grocery. Unfortunately the last time I visited here, I didn't see that many people. My mom told me that less people have been shopping here and are opting for the Grocery Outlet down the street. As much as I love Grocery Outlet, that makes me sad. Honestly if I lived in Fallbrook, I'd try to come to Major Market more! Love this place!
