I love this place. Got the three taco combo with Asada meat. Rice & whole white beans. Tasty. La Cocina was on their game this afternoon. I left with a full belly. Service was quick. You know the saying, never shop while you're hungry so I ate first. Next stop at the Panderia for some pumpkin empanadas. They make them so soft, fluffy with plenty of pumpkin filling. I'm gonna gain so much weight today. These empanadas are dangerously good & easy to eat with one hand one the drive home. Ambiance: oh so casual. I got a large piña & mint drink to sip while I shop. Trump may be exporting Mexican-Americans right now, but Americans sure do love & partake in our culture & love to eat our spicy food. Anyhoo stop by today read more

Visalia Vallarta: I had the paletas. No bueno. Too much sugar. I had the pineapple- honestly it was disgusting. My friend had the coconut and it was also very sugary. It tasted like condensed milk. Where was the fruit? read more

Really disappointed they would not return a bad bottle of wine for $17. Had the wine before and not returning because we don't like it, but it was bad. We spend hundreds of dollars a week at their store but will go elsewhere because of principal. Really like the store and would have been happy with a swap of guacamole. Don't buy the wine there. Yuck. read more

These supermarkets are amazing, everything and anything you need in a Mexican store. People are nice and friendly. The food is top notch, and the locations are great. read more

I do shop at this store only once or twice a year. For specialty items such as tripe and pork fat to make traditional Mexican dishes. The store is clean. No one speaks English unless you speak English to them as far as the ambience feels like you're in a different country. Their prices are very high probably because they cater to people on EBT. read more

My experience this morning was great! Grabbed everything I needed for my posole! Everyone (the employees) greeted me with a "Buenos Dias " and everyone was super helpful. read more

I love the people, service, prices and all the food they have to offer. The ambiance is awesome!

They have good quality food and are clean inside the market, so also love their fresh food made they cook with authenticity.

OMG this store is very BIG and it's a one stop shop,, very clean and organize. Please open one in Santa Barbara read more

The price of eggs images at Vallarta in Visalia is so high . I can't afford to buy eggs anymore.

Worst place to order a tres leches cakes if you want it for a birthday. They literally didn't think of how to execute a basic birthday concept on a simple cake. They decided to drown this in a bunch of frosting instead of simply printing the message on a slightly larger piece of white chocolate. On top of that they put it in a ridiculous tray that didn't fit the cake. ‍ read more

Found wall pins in our chicken breast! Customer service horrible to just say oh sorry here is a refund& having the audacity to offer more chicken before the refund ! Inconsiderate that five kids would have bitten into the chicken had I not notice and found it first. Normally stores would say they are going to clear their inventory but not this one! Watch out shopping here! Disgusting! read more

I decided to give Vallarta Supermarket another chance since their upgrade. I am very sorry I did. I loved the clean layout and the variety of prepared foods. Deli, juice bar, bakery, meat market. tortillas and salsas. What I didn't like was after buying $250.00 worth of groceries, I was expected to not only purchase bags, but bag my own groceries. I am 66 years old and just going to the market is a challenge, but then to have to bag my own was more than I could handle. I threw everything back into my cart and then had to put everything in bags at my car. I am Hispanic and feel disappointed in what my race considers customer service. Needless to say, I will not be returning . read more

Love the deli, tamales, fresh cheese, meats. What a great upscale Mexican market. Service is okay. Occasionally long lines at check out.

The meat counter tried charging me for a more expensive cut of meat than what I wanted or was given. I watched the attendant pack the meat I requested and knew I received what I asked for. Because of the large quantity of groceries/meat I purchased, I didn't notice the overcharge for a different, more expensive, cut of meat until I arrived home. The meat was more than double what I should've paid. I immediately went back to confront the person that packed the meat and he suddenly couldn't speak English. After arguing with the manager and proving the meat I had been given and what I was charged for were not the same he finally refunded what was owed. The entire time I was arguing with the manager, the person who sold me the meat said nothing. I have not been back and will never go back. read more

So I have a friend that lost his wallet at this super market and had over 2000.00 in cash in his wallet.... Not the smartest move, but the employees at this store recovered his wallet and returned to him the following day. Now with that kind of money I would think some would have been missing, but it was all recovered. The workers/management were very Helpful to him and I appreciate the integrity of this place. read more

Be careful with the meat products especially the meat that is marinated does not work anymore. It is rotten. That's why they marinate it. I know because my brother work at one of the stores in the meat department and told me what they make them do with the meat and chicken. That's why he no longer works there. He was Discussed by the managers obligating them to marinate the rotten food. read more

I live out of town and visiting my parents for Mother's Day; so I never go in. I stopped in (Tulare store) to get some flowers and my change back ended up being $2.09. I asked the cashier to take my penny so that he could just hand me a dime back. Instead, he said he didn't have time for it because there was a line. Lol! There were two people in line and they were together....and it would've taken less time to just grab a dime! SMH.... I've never once in my life ever had a cashier deny me whole change because there was a line. It would've taken less time, two seconds. Can't help but wonder if he took one look at me and realized I wasn't Hispanic/Latina...I'm white. ‍. DO BETTER. Don't worry about any more burden with change...I'll never be back. Thanks. read more

Vallarta is great for fresh veggies and fruit. It's my go-to store for produce. Also one of the only stores around to have a meat counter--fresh fish, meat, poultry at good prices. And they have a prepared foods cafe. Delicious! read more

I hate this place! Every time I go to the meat department to get a couple of pounds of meat. There is always about 20 to 25 people waiting to get meat and only 2 people helping in the meat department ! It takes about 30 mins for the 2 people to get 6 people's order. Get more people to help out or you will start losing customers ! read more

I couldn't help but notice that there weren't a lot of black people in this store. I went in to check out the pastries and was followed closely by the security guard. He went where I went. Thanks for making me feel uncomfortable in a state I'm visiting. Also I'm military read more

Tonight we odered a family Carnitas meal with grilled onions and peppers, red salsa, tortillas, beans and rice and paid extra for a small pico, green salsa and guacamole. Cost 32$. Meat had heat but absolutely no flavor just tasted like grease... Tiny container of guac cost $4.50 and all of the containers were so much smaller than we got before Covid. I was so disappointed. We had been buying this dinner for years before Covid. The tortillas and salsas were the best part of dinner. Tortillas were really good...salsa and tortillas are the 3 stars. I really hope it gets better. Miss their old food. read more

The meat is unprofessionally cut and the marinade is terrible. The meat is probably old. The Tulare location is WAY better. Must be the employees or the management. Won't be buying here again. Side note. Their bacon is ten dollars for a pack. Smh read more

This review is as a grocery store. They do have a deli and I would say that their deli food I would rate as 3 1/2 starts. The prices are about the same you'd pay at a Mexican restaurant. The taste has gone down a bit in quality but if your in a rush or need something fast it's not bad.. I've definitely had worse.. much worse. The aquas frescas (flavored water) are really good. As a grocery store I love this place. It has a variety of food from meats & cheeses, bakery, fruits and veggies. I know a couple people that don't like it bc "of the smell"... not sure what that means but I suppose if you have a hound nose the different smells may be overwhelming. They have a sale on their meats every Tuesday and on their fruits and veggies on Wednesday. The bakery is constantly making fresh bread. The rolls are sooo good when they just come out of the oven. Staff are always helpful. I would say the worst part is probably the restrooms. So tip: use the facilities elsewhere and than come shop. You'll thank me.. lol. McDonald's is at the same parking lot and there are many other businesses around. read more

Lengua burrito is small, salty and dry. Mostly rice with little beans and even less lengua. No salsa was included. Mutton stew plate is better. read more

Customer service is not good here. I was waiting at the counter and looking at the women waiting for them to offer help and they just kept talking to each other. Then helped the lady behind me while still ignoring me. This isn't the first time this has happened here. read more

Rosie is the worse!!! If you don't want to work! Don't work! I've never had a bad experience here until I ran into you! You're so damn rude!!!! The vallarta employees are always so kind and caring and Rosie treated us like she was to Good to even greet us and then tells me start "bagging your stuff!" With an attitude and then rolls her eyes and continues to scan all pist! I've never been talked to like this ever!!! It's gross to have employees like this Vallarta DO BETTER read more

Vallarta sucks has pore customer service they need to show there employees how to speak to customer instead of a man rolling there eyes when you ask him something it's not my fault he don't like his job that's what makes me not wan shop there the lines are long no cashiers are open at all read more

People!!! go only if you have time to kill. The Visalia store is terribly managed. Tuesday Nov 6 2018 time 12:30 only 3 registers working. Croweds are long. I walked in to purchase meat and vegetables to make soup. Never again will I show up at this location. Will go in when I visit Fresno read more

Purchased a shrimp cocktail for lunch today. I was in a rush and didn't check the expiration date, but it is assumed that ALL shellfish should be FRESH. Nope ! As I started to eat it, the taste and smell were terrible, it expired TWO DAYS ago. This obviously means that Heath and safety protocols are NOT being met. Food handling should always be under compliance! read more

This Is The worst Vallarta I have been to. A store full of employees and the women's restroom was the worst I have ever seen. How is it so hard to clean restrooms? Employees were issuing this restroom with no issue it was gross. The service is so slow, waited almost 10 min in line for a fruit water, there's workers everywhere and only 1 cashier at every station. Not sure why this store isn't more organized today is Wednesday and it was a horrible experience. read more

They have definitely vamped up the way the store looks. Over the years, the customer service and staff have gone downhill. Customer service is pretty shitty at checkout. I stood in express checkout as I had 7 items, and they placed the placard card and said closed. I thought seriously. And the guy cashier didn't even look up. There was a guy collecting carts...probably my favorite because he gave me a good laugh. He just didn't give a f. He collected four carts, stood in the middle of the parking lot and chatted on the phone. When I was out of the store, same spot, but he now collected 7 carts. Honestly, I can't say their fruits or meat are the freshest around, but unless you catch a good sale, not sure it ends up being worth it. I do enjoy the convenience of being able to get fresh green salsa and my conchas and baked goods in one spot. But something the shitty services makes me wonder why I don't just go to the panadería down the road and just make my own salsa. read more

Went for a cake. They told me to purchase the cake before they could write on it. Went back to get the cake and this is what they gave me. Let's just say I'll never buy a cake from here again. read more
