This is one of their newer locations in the area. I believe they converted an old CVS store. Of course, everything is remodeled and looking clean inside.
Walking in and taking it all in from left to right. Registers to the left, several pantry aisles, produce, butcher towards the back beyond the produce and the deli area at the far right.
I was hungry so I gravitated first to the deli. My experience at a Key Foods in North Clermont had me expecting the worst here where I thought I would find no prices listed and only Spanish speaking employees. Thankfully, that was not an issue at the Bravo deli.
Prices for most of the hot case items were listed on the menu above. I didn't see prices for the macaroni and potato salads but found out they were $3.99 lb. Both salads were very tasty. The prices for the hot case items seemed reasonable and the food looked really good.
I also purchased 2 empanadas that were made with cornmeal dough at $3 each. I'm not sure what country they represented but thinking Puerto Rico. The empanada dough was slightly sweet which I wasn't expecting but still pretty good. They were stuffed full with meat. I ordered a shredded beef and a shredded chicken version. I asked for a sauce and was only given an option to buy a garlic cream sauce cup for 50 cents. Sadly no Ají Picante option was offered to me which I usually like with empanadas. This garlic sauce was delicious though and we used it on everything to the last drop, including the salads.
The store has many Latin staples which is expected. Many options that you won't find at your local Publix. Everything seemed fresh. They even had a carved out space for the wine which they called the Wine Cellar with a rack of cigars at the entrance to the "cellar".
Checkout area is tight and the cashier was unfriendly to me which is the main reason why I knocked off a star.
Suggestion: have prices listed for everything in the deli. It is a pain to ask for what each unpriced item costs. They would probably move items quicker with all prices listed. read more
