    Entrance to good Mexican food and products
    Arnel D.

    Not the best Northgate that I've been to but still decent if looking for packaged food. Much smaller than other stores but still have a wide variety of snacks and drinks. Tons of parking though as well as patio seating. I expected to see tacos available for sale like other locations but they weren't available. What they did have was aguas frescas! The staff were friendly and welcoming. Prices are reasonable. Especially on Mexican Style Beer. They have all sorts of ceviche too! When craving something other than taco shop food, this is a great place to visit. Pork rinds galore... they sell it buy the pound. Perfect for keto style gains... Drop in and give them a try. You're sure to find something good to buy. You can thank me later.

    Pollo Salio Crudo.

    Fui a comprar pollo asado y salio crudo de adentro. No entiendo como no se pueden tomar el trabajo de cosinar un pollo bien. Pueden enfermar a las personas. No recomiendo comprar pollo asado de alli.

    If you've never been to a Mexican Supermercado before, you'll have fun here. With the Ranchera music blasting away, you find yourself in new uncharted foodie territory. You'll notice that there are so many new flavors of chips, ice creams, sodas, and sauces that they wont sell in VONS and Albertsons. These things I found to be very cool and tasty! - The Pico De Gallo from the service counter. - Warm Tortillas de Nopal (Cactus Tortillas). - Regia Extra ( Beer from El Salvador). - Coconut Ice Cream and other amazing flavors (Michoacan brand)

    How can we preorder for a party order?

    Do they sell masa preparada for tamales?

    Most likely. I've seen the corn husks, the masa flour, and other tamale ingredients there. It's the place I'd look for it first in Fallbrook. Call them or stop by, and they will be happy to help you.

    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!

Every time I've seen her since I can remember she always carries a bitter and sad face. And I had the displeasure of now interacting with her.yikes! I've returned items at other local stores like Albertsons and North Gate without a problem and without receipt as well. Its only $10 dollars and they made a big deal out of it. I am very committed to not shopping at Major Market ever again! That's my last $10 they get from me.

The 395 had jalapeños I had to remove those but left some for my husband and he absolutely loved it. I still love the sandwich. The bread was delicious. My avocado was fresh. There was lots of meat and a thick slice of delicious cheese when I got home I added my own mayo and mustard, but they do come with packets, which has been used . These are giant sandwiches so you can actually share. we often use this market when we are making something and need some celery, some cilantro, some onion something that we just need and don't need to go to a giant grocery store for. The checkout counter is always kind and upbeat and friendly. Everyone is nice there if you're craving anything, you will definitely find it here a bottle of wine, some chocolate chips, food, avocados, fruit, or whatever you're looking for. what does a writing review?

Almost like a one stop shop/mini grocery store which must be convenient for the residents in this area. They have anything from home goods to frozen food items, a small produce section, dairy, snacks, breads, candy, a cigar case, lots of alcohol beverage choices and and an impressive selection in the wine aisle. They even have a deli counter to purchase meats and sandwiches as well as a Thrifty's ice cream counter. Service was friendly and helpful, an employee stopped to ask if we needed help finding anything. This will definitely be a must stop the next time we are in the area!

Overall, there is a good selection and with weekly coupons there are a lot of good deals to be found. Their buy six bottles of wine is a really good deal. We have found some very good wine, like Opolo and Austin Hope. Also very convenient is the pharmacy. Their florist department is not as good as other markets in the area. Recently I had an issue with an Amazon gift card I purchased here. It seems the issue is with the gift cards from Amazon, which when you scratch off the back, the middle numbers are missing. One of the cashiers told me they have recently had this happen often. It was a real hassle getting my money credited back. I hope Ralph's pulls the cards and returns them to Amazon. Just beware if you buy gift cards for Christmas gifts--your gift recipient may not be able to use the card.
