Walk inside and find shelves and shelves full of produce, grain, smoked fish from Norway, and over 100 different spices.

First off, someone needs to check that they're allowed to charge $0.20 per bag. Last I checked,…read morethat's not the rate in Maryland. That's what we were charged last week when we visited; I was shocked because nowhere else I've been to in MD charges that much for bags. So are they wrongly charging customers for their bags?! Second, horrible customer service. Very, very rude checkout lady last weekend when we visited. She had such an attitude & for no reason. Quite disappointing as I've been visiting this market for years and now I won't be returning because you don't treat patrons with disdain and disrespect and you don't overcharge them for your mistakes. They charged me extra for bags even though the bag they gave me that I had already paid for ripped & broke! It wasn't my fault you overstuffed the bag & then when it breaks you're upset because I ask for another bag that's not now broken. Horrible! I went ahead and paid for the extra bags (mind you $0.20/bag) - even though I didn't agree, but that's absolutely not right!

At every bbq I've had, everyone always asks were I bought the meat and how I marinated it. They also have a big selection of juices,drinks and sodas from a lot of Latin countries. Their avocados are always on point, they are BIG and they will give you an avocado that is ready for that exact day you purchase it or the next. If you happen to be there when they have fresh Empanadas at the counter, they are pretty good. They are from Colombia I believe.

The receipt did not print properly so there was a big misunderstanding, not an error on my receipt. I am sorry that happened. Mr. Parrish, Chairman, and Jamal provided outstanding service. I am grateful we can buy our childhood favorites here after over 20 years. Please continue to take care to provide the best fresh food and great service with quality control checks for all to enjoy now and many future generations to come. Thank you.

Keep in mind though, the isles are extremely narrow and 2 people can't pass by one another, so maneuver carefully.

It has the…read morechiles, spices, canned goods and fresh produce that I use often, but don't typically find in the DC grocery stores (HELLO, I often can't even get Jalapeno peppers in DC!!). Their products are authentic and their snacks take me back to my childhood. You can find ripe mango, avocados & platanos, crema mexicana, chorizo, Mexican cheeses, enchilada sauces, tortillas, and a whole lot more. Prices are higher than the big grocery stores, but given that I know I'll find what I need here, I don't mind!! The store is not fancy, and a lot is crammed into this small space, but do yourself a favor and visit it - it will transport you from your daily life to another country & culture.

Only things I would change is (1) How the curtido js packaged with the yucca&chicharron. It was on top of the food, so by the time it arrived the yucca was a little soggy. It didn't taste bad and it wouldn't stop me from ordering again, but the slight crunchiness of yucca&chicharron is what I love about it. (2) There weren't any containers of salsa for the tacos. I had some at the house and added it on top, but tasting the salsa verde from each establishment is one of the best parts. Anyway, it's nothing that would keep my from spending $$ here!
