    Tamales and soups
    Christy C.

    Such a cool market that sells lots of fresh tortillas, pastries, tamales, ceviche, Mexican snacks and goodies! They even have booths that sell tortas, agua frescas, tacos, pazole, etc! Also, they have daily specials and it comes with a FREE agua fresca! Parking can be difficult especially on the weekends because it gets pretty busy but they have a big parking lot. It can get pretty crowded so try to come early if possible since they open at 7am especially if you come on the weekend! Service was very friendly and welcoming! Prices were pretty affordable! Got a container of super fresh and delicious guacamole for $6! The bag of chips i got was only $2 and were so fresh, crispy, and not too salty. The asada taco was freshly made and such a good deal for $2! The meat was marinated well, tender, and flavorful and the taco consisted of a lot of meat! The tortilla was so fresh and soft! The watermelon agua fresca ($6) was too sweet so I only had a couple sips but I had a sample of their horchata and it was good and not too sweet! Would definitely recommend and return!

    Guacamole habanero was really good! The chicharones with meat was really greasy and not very crunchy. Would buy the guac again it was $7

    Agua frescas

    It's been a minute since I've been inside north gate market, but oh man is it a foodies paradise inside. No time to cook, no problem. North gate has you covered. There are so many options to choose from and everything tastes amazing! Staff is friendly and incredibly helpful. An absolute must try is the agua frescas. The horchata con café is like an iced coffee with horchata and it is absolutely delicious. Another must try are the tortillas. They have a variety, but my favorite are the nopal (cactus) tortillas. Super affordable, healthy, vegan, and also very delicious. Another favorite are the Mexican mini sandwiches made with ham, queso fresco, avocado, and pickled jalapeños. The sweet bread here is also very good. Not overly sweet and the bread is soft. Lastly, a must is the beans. Specifically, the ones with bacon, ham, and cut up hot dogs. Full of flavor and pairs perfectly with their carnitas. Overall, I highly recommend this market. It truly is a one stop shop. I definitely will be back!

    I'd been craving sweet bread for a couple of days and knew this place would have it -- so I decided to stop by. Glad I did! The sweet bread was fresh and absolutely delicious. You can really taste the quality. Definitely coming back next time the craving hits!

    Compare with Asian supermarkets, it is clearer and tidier, with wide aisles and good vibes. Staff are nice! We bought some bananas, vegetables, snacks and guacamole

    Did the tortas get smaller? Still decent price though. Especially if you get weekday lunch special with the medium size aqua fresca = $7.99 If you get the ladies, they work fast and give you decent amount of meat. If you get the young guy (who is most likely the only english speaking person), he will likely be slow and give more beans than meat. The cantina doesn't have it's own check out. You'll have to wait in line the grocery line. Sucks because the meal can get soggy. But you can eat on the spot, there are 2 tables inside. The supermarket has everyday low price items and produce is pretty good. Usually we get the fresh tortilla and salsa to make tacos at home. They're very nice.

    Los tamales son DELICIOSOS! RIQUIZIMOS! pero el pan dulce Salvadoreño que venden es horrible, un asco y caro! no gasten su dinero, se que no lo hacen ellos pero antes de comprarle a un distribuidor, deberian de ellos probar el producto primero, lo que venden en sus tiendas lo representan a ellos, a la compañia: encuentren mejores distribuidores por favor! no me gusta tener que dar 2 star review pero hojala esto llame la atencion del encargado de purchasing y muestre mas apreciacion por los clientes ofreciendo mejor producto

    A wide variety of beans

    It is all about Mexican food and ingredients i. this large store. You know it is authentic when the majority of the. customers are Hispanic looking for their favorite and usual items. They carry everything you need to cook Mexican and most brands are available. What makes this place special is that they have a lot of different fresh food items such as fresh tortillas , ceviches, soups ,tortas and pastries not to forget the usual tamales ! All fresh , nicely presented and checked carefully for temperature. The prices are the same as elsewhere despite a lot of signs indicating sales and deals. They don't have many stores but they are worth checking out if you are planning to cook Mexican . The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable so they can be of great help if you need advice.

    Bunch of flies

    Please don't order any cooked food here , flies everywhere and the ladies behind the counter don't care , I'm surprise the health department haven't shut it down , I use to enjoy this place

    I came here strictly just to get some hot foods. I can say I really enjoyed the tamales especially for like $2.50 each. The soups were a bit more expensive at $5.99 each but they tasted quite good. A lot of good stuff here including some really nice cakes, I'd def be back to try more stuff.

So I come occasionally go for certain things like their yogurt, ham, some healthier snacks. I've never tried their sandwiches! This time I ordered one and omg I never knew how good it is and with such a reasonable price! I am so excited I finally tried it! I will definitely order it more from now on! I love how their tuna is not overly dressed with mayo, so it's healthier. And I asked for extra lettuce and tomatoes so it was so refreshing!!!

Everytime I visit this location, the staff is super friendly and greet you as you enter. Plenty of parking available in the lot. I came in looking for their The Good Crisp Company Cheddar Cheese Balls which is similar to Cheetos Puff balls minus the calories and added orange chemicals. These bite-sized puffed snacks has a bold cheddar taste and satisfying texture and made without artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives. Since I am on a health journey, and I still crave some junk food, at least this version of cheese puffs is healthier. This is why I like Sprouts because you can find similar items that are organic or healthier with less preservatives. This location is easy to navigate and my next go to is their bulk section. I come here to grab just the amount of nuts, grains, or chocolates to help with portion control. I can even make my own trail mix to enjoy at work or on long road trips. Only downside is that I've seen adults and kids using their hands to grab samples and that's a big No No for me. That compromises the cleanliness of those bulk items. I hope they figure out something where samples aren't easily taken. I still walk by their bakery area and just smell the freshly baked goods, hoping to satisfy my cravings without the added calories. There are also deli items like sandwiches, salads, and ready-to-eat meals that I typically purchase to enjoy at work. Overall, had a good visit at this Monrovia location. Will check out their skincare and vitamin section next time!

    Until today, I have had extremely positive experiences at all of the Grocery Outlets that I have…read morefrequented. This evening, I went to buy some frozen pizzas at this particular Grocery Outlet as there is this particular brand that my kids like (Amy's Spinach Pizza) and they just so happened to carry them. When checking out at the register, I noticed that they rang up for higher than I had recalled. Just to be sure that I wasn't looking at an incorrect price tag, I went back to the aisle to confirm. Indeed, it was $7.99 each rather than the $8.99 that it was rang up as. I then proceeded to go back to the person that helped me checkout and he called the shift manager, who told him that they could only honor one at that posted price rather than all 3 that I wanted to purchase. This seemed very odd as I've never run into any issues with any other grocery stores honoring a posted price, so I requested to speak with the shift manager. When the shift manager came up, she was rude and adamant that this was company policy that they could only honor one at the posted price. Her colleague that was helping her stock shelves jumped in to tell me "We don't even have to honor this price, but we're doing you a favor by giving you one at that amount." I replied back and asked a very logical question - Are you telling me that you don't have to honor the prices that you post for the products that you are selling? This is the exact definition of FALSE ADVERTISING! If the Store and/or Corporate Management is actually reading this review, I highly suggest that you train your employees and leadership team to 1) have better customer service skills when addressing dissatisfied consumers especially when it is their fault, 2) change your policies when customers call you out for incorrectly posted prices, and 3) have a better point of sale system that allows you to provide product credits without your employees needing to go hunt down an alternative product that is at the correct price simply to get the system to give the credit. Not only was this extremely aggravating experience a waste of my time this evening, but I sure hope this review helps others shopping at this specific Grocery Outlet. SHOP HERE AT YOUR OWN RISK! They are literal scam artists as they will NOT honor posted prices and try to squeeze literally $1 at a time from hard working shoppers that are trying to make ends meet!

I'm also excited that they had so many different types of food. There is so many Asian, Hispanic, Middle Eastern, European brands that they happen to have their period on top of their organic items which I don't always look at, but, they had some really good snack bars that my kid enjoyed. Staff was friendly and welcoming. Their carts were a little annoying because a few that were unlocked. We're a little wobbly. Something that you can definitely overlook but does tend to be annoying if you're shopping for a long time. Must've came on an off day, cause they seem to be out of bananas, decent price overall.
