I wanted to ask what juice drinks they had but she wasn't able to tell me and just pointed at pictures. They have lots of fruits and even fruits I've never seen before. If I read reviews first, I would've gotten the sugar cane juice but since I only saw a pic of passion fruit juice, I got that. It was def fresh fruit w the sourness to it. I will def come back to try their sugar cane.

First time in this market. Was meeting my Indonesian friend here during Chinese N.Y. celebrations…read more It was close to all the festival action. This is a quaint family run store. The gentleman working was super kind. From what my friend says, it's where she gets her essentials driving all the way from S.F Valley. We bought a few drinks and snacks. My friend bought us some already cooked food to try. It was amazing...I didnt know what I was eating but it was so delicious. (food is pictured) The man working says hes been there at the location for 25yrs. He was a very sweet man. As we were waiting for our friends to arrive he let us sit inside the store and I observed how he gave free drinks to every customer as the day was super hot. He gave my 2 kids toothbrushs during checkout. I recommend this store for those in the area looking for Indonesian food supplies.

The server was friendly and took my order. Kiosk ordering is another option. I like their simple menu with specials on occasions. I always get my sugar cane drink with kumquat flavor. It is such a refreshing drink. I love that their drinks are natural with no added sugar or preservatives! Highly recommend!

Tiny store but serves big flavors! Amazing!!! Need to go back!!…read more One of the best sugar cane drinks I've ever had! (Better than Vita Cane in my opinion) All natural juices, no added sugars, no preservatives, made fresh daily! Half Cane Half Coco (half sugar cane and half coconut, large, iced, $9 plus tax) The sugar cane flavor was super prominent, and it tasted so good! It also comes with a few pieces of coconut. Glad that they didn't add too much ice. Would have loved to get it without ice, but $15 for a large without ice is quite pricey. They also have a special deal for the day, not sure how often they change the deals, but you could get a medium drink of their special for $5.50 which is not bad! The special for today was the pineapple sugarcane. The menu is not super big, which I like, while still having a good number of options. They have a kiosk for you to order or you can order with the staff. The staff member was nice to give me some recs when I asked what's popular. They also have dehydrated chili mango for sale on the side for $6.50 per container. The inside was nice and clean. I don't recall if there are seats. It's mostly an order-and-go type of place. It wasn't busy when I went around 1pm, and the drink only took 3 minutes to be ready! Lots of parking spaces in the parking lot shared with other businesses. Fresh Cane has its own reserved parking right in front of their store, so that was very convenient! Never knew a store like this existed so close to me!! I was in desperate need of hydration, so I decided to check this place out and I'm so glad I did! Highly recommend!!

Came here because I was searching Yelp for somewhere to buy Ceylon cinnamon and this was one of the…read morebusinesses that popped up. We love checking out natural health food shops anyways so we were excited to go. The shop was a little smaller than what I thought it would be since there were no photos of inside the store. People mentioned in other reviews that there's fresh organic produce but there wasn't as much as I thought there would be (about 3 small shelves in the fridge of 3 different things - apples, cabbage) and there was some squash out on display as well. Maybe there's more variety on certain days when it's restock day. When we walked in the person working wasn't wearing a mask but then put one on and asked us to wear them. There is not currently an indoor mask mandate for LA county (people are also no longer required to wear them in airports or on planes) so we didn't like that we had to wear a mask. We browsed the shop and there was some cool items but they didn't carry Ceylon cinnamon.

Yuen Fung Sum Yong Trading store is located in the San Gabriel Superstore complex (at the corner of…read moreSan Gabriel and Valley). As you'd suspect, it serves the Chinese-speaking community specializing in Ginseng as well as other "health" items. Ginseng is believed to deliver many benefits as a stimulant, aphrodisiac, or general cure for whatever ails you. Since it only grows in a few places in the world and ... apparently ... has wide variances in quality, Ginseng can range in prices dramatically. Yuen Fung Sum Yong is one of the "cheaper" sellers of Ginseng in the area, but it can still be hundreds of bucks for a small pack of "the good stuff." This store's main offering is Made in America Wisconsin Ginseng; however, wild Ginseng, Bird's Nests, Shark's Fins (allegedly), and other rare Asian medicinal and health foods are available, too. Bring someone who speaks Mandarin to negotiate ... and good luck. There's got to be a price you can both agree is fair. Parking is free for the entire shopping center.

Came by Sprouts in Alhambra to check out their deli sandwiches and honestly, this is a really solid…read moredeal. Sandwiches start at just $4.99 and they use Boar's Head meats, which already puts it above your typical grocery store sandwich. You can choose from their preset options or build your own. I went with a turkey sandwich on sourdough with all the add-ons, and everything tasted fresh and satisfying. They'll even toast the bread for you, which makes a big difference. What really stood out is the value--you can load up your sandwich and still keep it under $10. They also have combo options where you can get a drink and a bag of chips for $5.99, making it an easy and affordable meal. Quick, convenient, and budget-friendly. Definitely a good spot if you're in the area and need a simple lunch.

See hilarious review below by Robert H!…read more I would like to add my 2 cents on the sandwich situation, which depending on the time of the day you hit up the deli, can be very dire. The older Hispanic ladies who make the sandwiches in the morning = amazing. Love them. They are warm, kind, quick, and attention-detailed. The sandwiches they make? Literally chef's kiss! Heaven on earth! Now onto the men who the make the sandwiches later in the day. Complete night and day. Watching them make sandwiches is like watching Down Syndrome people compete in the Special Olympics or the infants race in those baby crawl races. No directions, no focus, no sense of urgency. Think of the slothes working at the DMV from Zootopia. They talk to each other. They stare at the sandwich order print outs. They make the sandwiches haphazardly. And they still get the sandwiches wrong! How can you make sandwiches wrong when the pace has been so leisurely?? In conclusion, can Sprouts please please please, for the love of God (or the universe if you're an atheist), hire more ladies to work during the lunch times and evening times?!

The Green Grocer was founded by two folx of color a year or so ago and is at the intersection of El Sereno, South Pas, and Alhambra (next to the neighborhood favorite Charles Trio). Co-owner Erika will welcome you with her big smile and vibrant spirit. As you browse their well-curated selection of breads, beverages, veggies, spices, desserts, and so much more...you start to notice the products by women of color small businesses and many hyperlocal growers (the lavender is from Bell, my hometown!) and it makes you feel good. Good to know that even though some prices might be a bit steeper than the box chain stores, you have confidence that your money actually supports a small business and in turn our community. Personally, I align with their overall ethos and feel at home every time I visit. Invest in yourself through yummy locally sourced foods (vegan options available) and stay for the good company and conversation (don't forget to check out the community cork board, too!). All the staff are very knowledgeable and super sweethearts. Stop by when you're in the neighborhood but don't forget to check their open hours beforehand. Also, there is a hidden little parking lot down a short alleyway behind the laundromat. I would recommend following them on IG for all the updates, weekly specialty foods, and weekend pop-ups where they feature a small cafe, bakery, etc. Who knows...I might just run into you there right before closing as I grab their chipotle crab ceviche and house chips to-go (my fav)!

First time visitor to this store…read more I was about to run out of protein at home and headed to Costco to purchase my regular 4 lb bag of protein until I stumbled upon this store on the way to the freeway Parking can be a bit challenging as there is a LA Fitness gym adjacent to this store and most spots are taken by people visiting the gym. That was the ONY negative. Now the good stuff: The store was fully stocked with so many health related products and well organized As soon I stepped inside, I was greeted with a, "welcome" though the gentleman behind the counter was assisting another customer. After a minute or two of looking around, this store employee who I would discover later, is the owner (I am TRULY sorry that I forgot your name. I believe it was Danny or Andrew?) asked me if I had any questions about any of the products which I did and glad he asked me I explained that I was on my own weight loss journey and simply need a good protein intake while on my quest to drop the lbs for good. After answering a few questions I was asked, I was directed to a huge canister/tub of chocolate or vanilla flavored protein. I was explained the benefits of porting and specifically the protein I was about to purchase which I truly appreciated. I love chocolate and I also prefer a round container as opposed to what they offer at Costco. The transaction went very smooth, I leaned a few things about protein and there was no attempt to try to upsell me to purchase other products. This store is 30-35 minutes from my home but it is definitely the only place I will purchase all my future nutritional products bcos of this one, initial positive experience. Thank you!!
