Love this place! Everyone is always so welcoming and friendly. They have an amazing selection of hot food, fresh produce, quality meats, and delicious pastries. This has become my go-to spot for spices and all the hard-to-find ingredients that make cooking special. The store is well-stocked, the food is consistently great, and the staff always makes you feel appreciated as a customer. Whether I'm stopping in for a quick meal or shopping for groceries, I always leave satisfied. Highly recommend! read more

La Super Altena Market - Carne asada Fries - Grocery Near Me - Manteca, California

I love this store and even better now that it has been remodeled, with an upgrade on the bakery and food areas. Service is always good, fast and courteous. The only thing I wish was better, is the parking. Adding one more handicap parking space will help and designing the spaces in an angle vs straight would help even better. read more

It seems the safe Mexican market to shop. I first went there with Mr. Perez from Starfrutas down the block and was impressed by the variety of produce. That said, you might need to pick and choose carefully They have a deli "Cocina" where you can get packaged salads, or cooked items like burritos and tacos. This first time on my own, I ordered two carne asada tacos and a large Jamaica drink. The conversation was in Espanglés/Spanglish but they seem okay with English, if you do that, though not everyone might be at the same level. They had quite a few working the deli area and they worked through the line quickly. You pay for the food at the cash registers toward the entrance/exit, and there is a seating area around the corner toward Yosemite Avenue. Service was friendly but the tacos' tortillas fell apart as soon as I lifted them, as if they hadn't been fried. I don't usually eat tacos with a spoon but that's practically what had to be done. The taste of the ingredients was good but whatever happened to the tortillas, I don't know. read more

See all

The worst customer service experience of my life in the food service area and at the register. First of all the lady was upset she was working or something. She had a attitude with everyone and made me want to leave but i needed the carnitas to feed guest at my house so i put up with it but i felt like throwing my food at her for the attitude she had not just with me but with other people before me. Then I'm in line at the register and the girls are not train or anything to deal with customers like the owner just places anyone anywhere and they look afraid or something i got this weird vibe from them like the actors on the movie GET OUT and they didn't bag my groceries like I'm just supposed to carry everything out. I don't think I will be back to this place just because of the customer service. read more

I have been a customer of this yummy little gem since we moved here in1998 and they were located in that tiny store on main. The sons have done a fabulous job. The food counter is delicious although sometimes the tamales tend to be a little in the salty side everything else is delicious. The meat market is always clean and tidy with a lot of grey prices. My go to for skirt steak even cheaper than Costco with what appears to be the same quality. I'm so sorry that the person with the negative review felt that way. I have never had a problem and I also don't speak Spanish. To me best Mexican market in town! read more

Si ponen en el horario que van a cerrar a las 8:30pm así debería de ser. Llegue 8:10 por una emergencia y el lugar ya estaba cerrado. Me vieron llegando en el carro y apagaron la luz. Falta de respeto. read more

Great product great service and great food. I love their sweet bread and their chorizo meat is amazing. Everything is a great deal and I'm excited to visit them soon again thank you read more

I so disagree with the negative postings. The place is great. I have never experienced an issue with service, friendliness and their offerings and I don't speak Spanish. It helps to understand the culture and be patient. They are the best in town and I've tried most. This is my go to place for shopping, take away food and the bakery items. Their Tres Leches Cake is awesome. It's our birthday and other celebrations number one choice. read more

They used to be my favorite place to get meat and dinner but after today I will never step foot in that market! We waited in line to order the catering and had a couple questions the lady who works the window helped everyone else except us. Even people who came in after us! Terrible customer service!! You have lost mine and my family's business forever! Solían ser mi lugar favorito para comer carne y cenar, ¡pero después de hoy nunca pisaré ese mercado! Esperamos en la fila para pedir el servicio de comidas y tuvimos un par de preguntas, la señora que trabaja en la ventana ayudó a todos los demás, excepto a nosotros. Incluso las personas que vinieron después de nosotros! Terrible servicio al cliente !! ¡Has perdido el negocio mío y de mi familia para siempre! read more

LOVE their cakes!!! So fresh and creamy, no too sweet....just right Guests at our party love the read more

It's ok place. Not so clean inside the store. Small and crowded most the time. Staff are nice and friendly though.

Delicious food and good selection of groceries. Nice employees too. Also great environment.

Best chorizo!!! Love this chorizo, always stop by and have to pick up some for me and the familia! My family likes it so much they beg me to take them some, they live in LA. read more

Altenas is my Mexican super store of choice. I love that it reminds me of the Mexican markets that we went to growing up in Oakland. I love that it is a Mexican family owned business and has all the authentic products read more

The owner of the store deserves a big award. I personally seen when he helps to feed the unfortunate people that don't have nothing in life by offering them free burritos etc... that was awesome and the food was 100 read more

The chorizo here is excellent. Deep, complex flavor and spicy! Try it you won't be disappointed.

Is this really the best Mexican market in town? It's overrated. The cashiers are often not at the register when I'm in line. It's disorganized. They didn't bag my groceries, but they bagged the next young woman's items. The mini carts were filthy. And their produce is bruised and the service was mediocre. What happened to welcoming all kinds of people? read more

The best tacos I've ever had. Great portions depending on who makes the tacos though. Really good chicken fajitas. Everyone is pretty friendly for the most part. read more

While I'm aware that Yelp reviews aren't as prevalent in Manteca as they are in other cities/towns, I am surprised this place has not been reviewed! This supermarket isn't that big but it definitely has everything you need. They carry the typical Latino groceries (vegetables, can goods, drinks...) and have a fresh meat section all the way in the back on the right hand side. There is also a small selection of pan dulce which I was happy to find. But before I could grab any pan dulce I noticed the hot food section just behind the cash registers. I ate two of the best tacos I have ever had. One carne asada and the other al pastor. The tacos were only $1.19 and were over flowing with meat...and the meat was delicious. Part of me wonders if maybe someone new was working in the kitchen because with every bite meat was just falling off of the taco and I could hardly taste the tortilla (just the way I like it). I also had a pork tamale for $1.50 which was also very delicious. And their chips and salsa have a very fresh taste...the chips alone are delicious. If the rest of their food is as good as their tacos then I have found my new spot. I look forward to coming back and I encourage anyone to stop by and order a couple of tacos. I'll update my review upon my return...and if their other food is as good as the tacos I will give them 5 solid stars! read more

I use to go to there store on Main street prior to them moving to this "bigger" location. Now it seems that there standards have gone down even more. The store is still very very overcrowded with supplies and goods. The produce is awful, I wish I had taken a picture of the rotting habaneros and the very overripe fruits and vegetables. The meat department is okay. Only reason I go to La Altena is for their fresh meats and cheese. I do however wish they used gloves after handling several different types of meat/fish. I request who ever is helping me handle the meat with a bag over his hand. There isn't many Mexican/Hispanic groceries in town, but overall they are the "best" in town. However, if I really need my fix, I drive a bit out to Tracy and go to Mi Pueblo. read more

3 stars for excellent selection, minus 2 stars for the prices. Far over prices and flies everywhere. Gross. Assad was nicely marinaded, and polo seasoned well. But at nearly $10 a lb it wasn't that good! read more

Always friendly! The only thing that sucks is the parking! Great food, great meat quality and delicious jalapeño cream cheese stuffed bread

This place is plain bad. It doesn't look well kept or clean. It's a tight place where they expect people to move around. And did I say dirty. Just gross. read more

Do yourself a favor and come see for your self. read more

I bought the taco meat on May 4th. I asked him to season it for me. I came straight home and put the meat in my fridge and didn't touch it until Saturday evening when we wanted to bbq for Cinco de Mayo. When I opened the bag and put the meat in a pan, I saw a MAGGOT!!!! I was disgusted!! I didn't save the receipt because i wasnt planning on returning it. So now I'm out $20. I had bought a little over 4 lbs. I will never visit this market again. read more

I went in to super Alteña market to get some bakery items when I came up to the register to pay she charge me everything and told me the total I use EBT but there still was balance of five dollars left to pay with cash. I asked her what is that for five dollars she pulled out of a can of Small axe I told her it was not mine I don't want it I don't know where you got it from but please Take that off. She insisted that she can't because it is all together even though I have not paid for anything yet I could have walked out of the store without getting anything but I really thought she would just cancel the small thing of X. This Was so disappointed maybe not as much as the store as whole but the single cashier who I believe would have done it for any other person inside the store that are Hispanic. Which I am not a Hispanic , Previously every time I have went into the store she always looks at me up-and-down but again the store is the closest small grocery store from my house in Manteca California. If any management happens to read this this happened between 8:30 AM two 8:50 AM it was a bit older female that I've seen there many times.I told her I would overdraft because I was getting cash back and she could have easily canceled maybe the whole order or just ask it's self but no she made me pay for everything including the X and she did not let me return it she bagged it up and she told me Gracias. to early to deal with someone like that, In future I hope that the employees treat all the customers the same and maybe need more training to learn how to cancel one item or redo the whole thing.. Be more like the gentleman in the money center Ron P 3-11-21 8:20 am - 8:45am read more

Purchased chorizo , the best I have had ever I am not from Manteca but I will only buy chorizo from them .

The food is usually good, but this time I bought some tacos and the meat looked kind of disturbing, maybe its notting but it looks like there could of been some kind of pimple or something that got cut off before cooking. Meat quality not looking good. read more

La Super Altena Market - Grocery Near Me - Manteca, California

Solid place to get seasoned meat and a few necessities...i.e. eggs, veggies, beer, etc. Love their beans, rice, and salsa! Oh, and they have a large pan dulce selection! If you spend over a certain amount on meat, they give you a free 2 liter of Mexican soda. How can you beat that? The only reason for the 4 stars is that it is a small market, not a huge chain store...thus they do not have as much stuff and larger Mexican markets & the produce quality suffers. But still my go to spot whenever we are grillin' & chillin'! read more

Went in because the smell of carnitas pulled me towards the store, was not disappointed. The chicharon con carne is also very good, I live in Stockton and would for sure drive back to get more read more

Awesome food and great pan dulce (Mexican sweet bread). The burritos are huge and delicious. They will make it with any meat you want.

Went in to get a steak super burrito, waited a long time to get my order taken. When I got home to eat my burrito took one bite and was not satisfied with the burrito. My steak meat was not fully cooked the meat had a weird taste to it had chunks of fat in it, had no sauce in it had more rice and beans than meat just not what I wanted. After this I don't think I will order anything from there taqueria anymore. read more

Amazing food always get my order right. Definitely a must for good Mexican food. Everything thing from chips and salsa to burritos place rocks. My work eats there at least once a week sometimes twice read more

The Chicharon con chili is the bomb. Love the combo meal $7.99, with chips and salsa.

Quite dissapointed with their Super Carnitas Burrito. Bought 2 burritos and both were filled with lots of rice and very little meat. I was super embarrassed because I always bragged about how generous their portions were. For the same price I can go to a taqueria for a super burrito with an adequate amount of meat. Don't know what happened to them. read more

Manteca born and raised and i gotta say that this place has the best burritos in town

Every time I have gone here I have always gotten quality, both service and food! Only complaint is that the daily lunch schedule is only Monday thru Thursday but hell so is my schedule so I'm good! read more
