The food is very fresh and most importantly, AUTHENTIC Mexican food. They must have a pastry chef because the selection is beautiful and fresh. We have purchased the desserts before to take to parties. The meat counter has all the traditional American cuts plus all the Mexican recipe cuts. This is the only place I buy fresh meat any longer. I find the prices lower than the large grocery store a few miles away. If I lived closer I would frequent this mercado much more often. Five Stars!!

My first visit to this establishment was my last. I've seen…read morethe Poco Loco chain around, I love mercados and carnicerias, so I stopped by the one on FM 21 to pick up some fajita meat and some empanadas. I was overwhelmed by the awesome selection of baked goods, and the meat market had an amazing selection of cuts. I got 2 pounds of marinated fajita meat, some sweets, and a mango beverage. I purchased my groceries and headed to the car, feeling great about a new store to visit. I opened the car and reached for the fajita meat only to find that it was not in my bag. I double checked my purchase and my receipt. I have health issues that require me to check myself constantly to make sure that I'm functioning properly in an orderly society. The fajitas were not in my bag. I went back inside and found the cashier, and the fun began. She immediately played stupid and pretended to not understand English. I thought, cool, a mistake was made, here's my receipt, get me someone who can speak English. She gets the assistant cashier, who hears the story first from the cashier. She was told in Spanish by the thief, who didn't know that I've lived in South Texas all of my life and can understand the language, "I don't know what his problem is, he said he doesn't have his items, I think he's drunk". The assistant looked at me in disgust and said that perhaps I should check my bags and my car for the missing item. I was enraged. I have medical issues and haven't touched a drop of alcohol in 2 years. They obviously were trying to provoke me into creating a scene so they could have me trespassed. I asked for the manager, and he joined the conversation. All in Spanish. Once again, she told them I was drunk, and needed to leave. I showed him my receipt, which he promptly tried to pocket. I demanded it back. I showed him my bag of groceries that had a definite lack of fajita meat. He tried to tell me that I was out of luck. I told him to please come out to my car and I would show him everything in it to prove that his cashier was a thief. They STILL told me that it was my fault, and I should leave. I told them I was calling the cops. That got me a look of fear from the cashier. She knew she was busted, but the look of utter contempt for me was enough to make my blood boil. I had enough of her thievery. I was reaching for my phone when the manager demurred and gave me the $25 for the fajitas. I will NEVER set foot in an establishment that tries to rob me and make me feel like I'm the culprit. Adios, mofos.

It's way more "manageable" than bigger H-E-Bs, & while they might not have the obscure organics or artisanal offerings of a Central Market or other H-E-B's, this store is a hidden gem. The shelves are always stocked, the aisles are always clear, & the associates are always happy & quick to help. I pretty much know where everything is, but the few times I've wandered aimlessly looking for something, fellow shoppers -- mostly older & wiser -- have helped me find whatever it is I'm hunting down. I've always preferred small grocery stores to large ones, & I really have a soft spot for this one. Maybe because I grew up in the area, or maybe I just like how leisurely a shopping trip here is; I enjoy my time spent here, & I think it's a nice change of pace from the Walmarts & Targets of the world. A pro-tip: the H-E-B app is a great help for a store as condensed as this one (& any H-E-B in general). It tells you aisle by aisle if they have something you want in stock, so you can save time, gas, & energy if you need something in a pinch.

When it is cold I often come for the warm and ready gumbo and tortilla soup. Their low carb ready to go meals have made my life so much easier during the busy week. They even have sourdough fresh made in the bakery. I usually end up here over most other stores for my main groceries due to the always pleasant experience. It does tend to get pretty crowded and parking can be tricky. So I often come during early hours during the week.
