I made some wonderful green salad from the lettuce, tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, carrots, snd broccoli. We also got some sweet corn that was really great. The workers provided helpful service.

We walked the strawberry field and picked our own baskets, then we shopped all the fruit inside. They even offer larger wicker baskets for holding your items. They were busy, but still attentive and efficient. . For all four of us, all of our totals were $30 or less. This will definitely be a regular produce spot now that I've found them! If you're tired of being gouged by grocery store prices, check out these local farmstands you will not be disappointed!

Oceano Packing is also the home of Garcia's Fruits and Vegetables, one of those semi-rural hidden…read moretreasures one can run across quite accidentally, when rolling down the road. This operation is family owned and operated since 2001, and has a pretty good selection of locally grown fruit and veggies, depending on the season. BEST thing is the prices!! The prices here are generally 50% to 75% better than supermarket prices, depending on what you get. I have been shopping here twice a week for a few months now, and have never yet been disappointed in the quality of their produce. Their friendly service just adds more to the experience, especially if you speak Spanish. They have a variety of stone fruit, such as plums, pluots, peaches, apricots, as well as avocados. They have cauliflower, broccoli, celery, corn, watermelons, and the list goes on. If your Spanish is a bit rusty, come by on Sundays, when Martha, one of the owners' nieces is there. She is a nurse during the week, and her English is perfect. ALL of the family members who work there are friendly and helpful. Even though they are open 7 days from about 8 AM til about 5 PM, I have found that the best days are Wed. and Sun. Do not be afraid to ask if they have fresher specimens of what is on display, they will fetch stuff from the large walk-in fridges, or even let you do that, if you have a mind to freeze a bit! Big plus, they also carry fresh made guacomole, chips, honey, Mexican candies and salsa. I submit to you that it doesn't get any better than this...really!

Wonderful Oakland-based whole bean (and a grinder) coffee by Peerless Coffee & Tea for $10.99/lb. Delicious soft flour tortilla tacos at the deli counter. We had the chile verde and the al pastor- both delicious! Really good cold drinks section and extensive hot sauce selection! A fun and fresh assortment of tropical produce (like baby bananas). Shop here!

Will be reviewing the tacos from the deli…read more FOOD: The tacos were not bad at all. It had great flavor and meat to tortilla ratio was also good. We got the quesa birria tacos and one asada and one pastor. All were delicious along with the salsa. The consomme was delicious too. $2.99 for regular meat tacos and $3.49 for the quesa birria tacos consomme included. SERVICE: One woman doing it all when I visited. She was quick and nice. AMBIANCE: It's a little food court portion inside a supermarket. It has a couple of tables and chairs. It was clean and had no foul smell when I visited. Not loud inside at all. Will come back and try the burritos and chicharrones!

We were placed on the back patio, which was beautiful, covered, heated, and thoughtfully decorated, making it a very comfortable and inviting space. We ordered the Cajun Seafood Boil, and it did not disappoint. It came with a generous amount of crab, shrimp, lobster, clams, and mussels. The seasoning was bold and flavorful without being overwhelming. The corn, potatoes, and sausage were perfectly portioned, complementing the seafood instead of taking the focus away from it. The rich, buttery garlic sauce tied everything together and was absolutely delicious. We also ordered the half-shell oysters, which were the perfect medium size. They were meaty and had the rich, briny flavor I enjoy. Our server, Angel, was outstanding. Our food came out quickly, she checked on us regularly, and she was attentive to everything we needed without any delay. Overall, we had a fantastic dining experience from start to finish. Great food, excellent service, and a wonderful atmosphere made this an easy place to recommend for the whole family.
