Not sure what kind of business is being operated here but I have been told that the perishables sold here have somewhat expired. Also, not posting times of operation is a real downer.

They even sell some Valerios bakery goodies at the front near the check out. The vegetable selection is also pretty decent: ampalaya, okra, talong, a wide selection of pechay and root crops. It's honestly a life saver and a gem for the Filipino community of the desert. The store is very small and can feel crammed at times, but I am so happy this place exists.

My mom and I got the Chicken shawarma plate and oh my god it's SO FLAVORFUL. We needed help finding the meat section, pita bread, and more hummus and dips and the owner was so sweet and helpful Even told us to come back Friday when they restock.

Once we got home and opened the bag, it smelled awful and tasted terrible. We immediately got back in the car and drove back to the store where we were offered either a refund or a new cheese. Mind you we don't live close to the store, we were on a time crunch, and we were promised quality cheese given the date of the packaging. The store refused to compensate us so we asked for a manager. The manager then came with a terrible attitude, and never once apologized to us for the inconvenience. Eventually, we got our refund and our products but with a lot of attitude and no apology. As someone who's worked customer service i don't know how they let this shit fly. State bros and food for less customer service is way nicer and more compensating just go there instead!

When I first stepped foot in the store, the aroma immediately brought my back to my childhood when my parents always made me go grocery shopping with them in Asian markets. And to my excitement, they had everything I needed! Lol The man up front didn't say much, just a quick, little smile when we walked in, and continued to pay no attention to us. That's fine, I'm Asian and this is the usual mannerism lol But when it came time to check out, he was polite and answered questions that I had. Cash only- I can see why this is a problem for most. I dont carry cash either, but thanks to previous reviews- I went prepared. I guess this is my go to spot for the Asian spices/ingredients that I need!
