I needed help with a large early morning order and ran into a scheduling snag -- I needed pickup at…read more8am, but the order wasn't going to be ready until 11:30am. I called the store, unsure how we'd sort it out, and was greeted by a friendly voice: Manager Andrew. Andrew didn't just help me -- he went above and beyond. He patiently answered my many follow-up calls and personally assigned himself to my order to make sure everything was handled correctly. That kind of hands-on ownership is rare, and it made a stressful situation completely stress-free. Huge shout out to Andrew for the great customer service. This is exactly the kind of experience that turns a customer into a loyal one. Highly recommend!

This location is always so busy! Parking is also pretty challenging…read more I came to grab some lunch from their hot bar. The line was long, but it moved pretty quickly; the only thing that slowed the line from moving are the people in line who have no courtesy of moving the line up. :( My friend and I came for the honey butter pancake, lunch combo, water, and coconut water. Our total for all that ended up being $78 - the most I have ever spent on lunch. The honey butter pancake is so overpriced, but so delicious. EACH pancake is $18. It is a big sized pancake, that is definitely shareable and should be less than the price it is. Would I get it again though? Absolutely. Our lunch platter included Korean short rib, miracle noodles, and broccolini. The short rib was so tender and well-seasoned, the noodles are calorie free and tasty, the broccolini had the perfect garlicky crunch in each bite. Haters will hate, but I think it is worth giving the hot bar a try.

Parking can be a bit rough considering it shares a lot with Trader Joe's, which is notorious for…read morerough parking. If I'm ever in the area and it's lunchtime; I always stop by. The spicy tuna rolls are amazing. $10 and you get a very good amount of quality tuna in the roll for that price. Their overnight oats with Greek yogurt, chia seeds and fresh fruit are also amazing. -(They make for a good dessert after a sushi roll.) The Nigiri is good, but for the money you cannot beat the sushi rolls. They also have several other offerings in terms of salads, fruit, and Asian market specialty items. The staff is always friendly, you can have a fresh sushi roll made for you if you ask the sushi chef. Upon checking out, the staff is always friendly, offering utensils to go. There is not much for seating outside since they only have one table with two chairs.

Old food at high prices…read more PSA: Always check the production date label on your prepared food here. Not everything is made fresh daily. I picked up a few items tonight, and one item missed the mark. * The Bad -- Hard Rice: The pickled pear baked salmon onigiri had a tough, dry texture. * Food : The package label showed the rice ball was already three days old. * High Price: It cost nearly $7 for stale food that I could not finish. Their prices are high. Head to the Valley's Japanese grocery store like Mitsuwa in Northridge for sushi or a Korean grocery store like Greenland Market in Van Nuys for prepared food made the same day at lower prices. The Good: * The spam musubi was made the same day and tasted fresh. * The butter mochi was delicious. Final Thoughts: I expected fresh food made that morning. Selling three-day-old rice balls at this price is unacceptable. I will not return because they sell items past their prime. I would not buy their sushi based on my experience as it might be old as well.

Everything about Tapia Bros Farm is amazing! The actual Brothers are super nice and seem to love…read morewhat they do! What they do is provide a family run business that is healthy and reasonably priced way to eat fresh healthy fruits and veggies. During Halloween they have a wonderful assortment of pumpkins big and large all colors and shapes and sizes. They also have a petting zoon and Corn Maze! Weekends get crazy, try and go during the week earlier in the day if possible. They also have Christmas Trees right after Thanksgiving, again an amazing assortment of different types of trees and tall or short, full or skinny! I love supporting a Family Run Business that the entire family works there!

Two stars only because my 15-month old had fun. As expected the weekend before Halloween, it was…read morequite busy, which didn't bother me. I had visited before, years ago, and had fond memories, but was shocked to see the cost for the corn maze was now $12 per person?! They nickel and dime you for every step of the experience, and all of the prices change the closer it gets to Halloween. It was $6 simply to enter the pumpkin patch area, and another $6 for the train/tractor ride. For a place that caters to families with children, I was shocked that there was absolutely nowhere to do a diaper change. I know it's tough when the only bathrooms are port-a-potties, but there are ways to get creative. Just last weekend we attended an outdoor festival where they set up a makeshift diaper changing area in a tent with some folding tables. Just this small consideration would really improve the experience for families who are shelling out dollars for every single activity at the farm. We had to change my son in the backseat of our car. The real kicker for me was our experience at the food stand. The way the menu was written was very misleading, and my husband and I misunderstood the options for the spud nuggets, thinking there was a plain version and a fully loaded version. Turns out there was only a fully loaded version covered in cheese, which I cannot eat. When I attempted to speak to the man working there, he was very rude to me, not apologetic at all, just bluntly saying "there's one price" and when I asked if we could just get a refund for the item, he rudely said "no, we already made it." There was no offer of a different item or a modification. Also, two friends we were with both had to stop drinking the overpriced "fresh-squeezed" lemonade after feeling the beginnings of an allergic reaction, so who knows what ingredients are in there. While we were in line for the tractor ride, I also witnessed the woman selling tickets YELL at two children who were playing with the ropes cordoning off the line. Sure, their behavior was not appropriate, but she was very aggressive. If they want to charge way too much for everything, a little kindness would go far. We will find a different pumpkin patch next year.

One of the most iconic Farmers Markets in the 818…read more The Studio City Farmers Market off Ventura Place is a cool mini hub with a slice of all things San Fernando Valley in Studio City. Incredible local vendors, fresh produce, lush flowers and plants, small biz shops and fresh eats. It's super family friendly with attractions like face painting, trolley train and bounce house. Easy to see why it was voted the most kid friendly Farmers Market by Los Angeles Magazine. Located between Radford Ave. & Laurel Canyon Blvd with some free parking available though limited. Mostly street metered and business plaza parking in the area but super accessible in many ways including the LADOT Dash which drops off across the street and many LA Metro busses that run alongside Ventura Blvd and/or Laurel Canyon. Familiar chains and staples all around as well including Prince Street Pizza who also has a tent booth for personal size pies directly in front among all the great vendors. Also in the mix of Joan's on Third - Studio City, McConnell's Fine Ice Creams, Alfred Coffee, Big 5 Sporting Goods and loads of others. Many vendors offer samples for your enjoyment like the awesome ladies of Mama Aunties Vegan Goodies. No Animals Allowed except for service animals, but you'll see a few people breaking the rules quite a bit. Definitely a fan of one of my most local FM nearby along with the Sherman Oaks Farmers Market during weekdays at the Westfield Fashion Square. I do wish they'd deep clean their signs. It is a bit on the luxury side of Farmers Markets, however "When you support the market, you support the Community" - The City of Studio City And I couldn't agrees more. Favorite time to go is after 11:30 am it's less congested and during the last full hour from Noon to 1am most folks are making their way out or over to brunch and lunch. Visit their website and insta to stay up to date and learn more. Open every Sunday from 8am til 1pm.

This is a neighborhood, family run fruit and vegetable market - with a few other things like nuts,…read morespices, and some dairy. It is small, but makes great use of the space. And the prices are sometimes half the price of the Ralph's down the street. The market is owned by Armenians, but unlike an Armenian grocery store, which is filled with specific ethnic food-supplies, this is almost all fresh stuff - so there is a lot of good general produce here that everyone can use. Top Buys Here: HEIRLOOM TOMATOES. - When they have them, they are usually in the two dollar per pound range. PICKLING CUCUMBERS - (which you cannot even get at the Ralph's) - Here you can buy a sack of these for a few bucks. RED BELL PEPPERS - Half the price or less than at the Ralph's. OKRA - Inexpensive and fresh. GREEN BEANS & BROAD BEANS - Both fresh and cheap (and you cannot even get broad beans at a regular super market.) And there are dozens if not hundreds of other great buys.here (like farmer's cheese, sumac, and Bulgar wheat). Definitely shop here if you live in the neighborhood. And I think that it is also worth the drive if you are not too far away. (Note: There is a good butcher shop right next door).

Can't complain about any of it and will definitely be back!

It has been surprisingly difficult to find truly fresh fruits, vegetables, and produce, but this place pretty much had it all. They carry a wide variety of seeded fruits and produce from different parts of the world, and everything looked fresh and natural rather than overly processed or mass-produced. I'm almost hesitant to leave this review because I don't want the spot to get so popular that I can never find the fruit I'm looking for again. The woman working behind the register was also extremely welcoming and knowledgeable. She allowed my brother and me to sample a few fruits that were new to us and gave us background and insight into where they came from and what made them unique. I would absolutely recommend Sasoun Produce, especially for health fanatics and anyone who may not get the opportunity to travel but still wants to experience fruits from different parts of the world. Ten out of ten.
