This is by far the best market Calipatria has ever had. I remember going to the old market years…read moreago--it was very outdated. Now, whenever I visit from LA, this is one of my favorite places to stop. Everything is well organized and clean, the employees are friendly and helpful, and they even carry my oat milk creamer for my coffee. They also have fresh sweet bread and cakes, which is a huge plus. I still need to try their food, but everything so far has been great.

If ever a little town needed a grocery store, Calipatria is it! The few stops in town have tried to…read moreprovide for us but there will always be something they don't carry that you need now. Step in State Foods Supermarket. You can tell that this business is really trying to give Calipatria a nice store. Looks like there are all new frozen and refrigerated cases, as well as a new produce area , meat, deli and bakery. Though the bakery has yet to be serving, there is a pretty nice space for them with tables and chairs by the deli section. They are still in the early stages so I'm looking forward to tasting their offerings. Plus there is actual signage on the building! The grocer is are well organized with a good variety of products. Don't see what you need? Be sure to let the staff know. They want to be open to the communities needs. The bad part? Like many businesses they have to charge a premium. Thought prices was high at Vons? State foods is at least $2-$3 more. I really understand. Being in the middle of nowhere you pay more for the convenience. And convenience is what State Foods Supermarket is all about. Please check them out and do business with them when you can. Calipatria would really like this store to stick around.

It turned out to be the best biscuits and gravy I've ever had, absolutely phenomenal. I could t save any they were so good. The best ive ever experienced.

Best carne asada EVER!!!! I drive here from San Diego to buy their carne asada on a regular basis…read more Yumm!

Well I'm not the only person to write this, but I had to add my two cents. It IS the best carne…read moreasada on the planet. Call ahead to be sure they have it, they go through a lot of it. Like the other reviewer I drive from San Diego and buy it 20 pounds at a time. They are always nice and package it into small 2 pound bundles for me. The polo asada is pretty good too, but the beef is unlike any other I've ever had. Kind of reminds me of the old Alfonso's in La Jolla, (before it changed hands). It is a bit of a drive just to take my word for it :). But keep it in mind the next time you are passing through El Centro and take the 30 minute detour into Brawley.

We got seated right away thanks to our reservation and the place wasn't too loud; it was just right to be lively, but also carry on a conversation with your group. We ordered the Anza Burrata (Burrata cheese, Coachella Valley roasted grapes, hot honey, pistachio, side of warm sourdough boulé); the Caesar Salad (Baby Gem Lettuce, Parmigiano-Reggiano, House Croutons, Garlic Dressing, Seed Mix); and Braised Short Rib (BRANDT beef, potato puree, grilled broccolini, sweet garlic). Everything was great! The burrata was incredible and the bread had a lovely combo of flavors. The short rib was fall off the bone tender and delicious. And the salad was flavorful, too. Will definitely come back when I'm in the area!
