    El Mercadito inside Northgate
    Laura M.

    Stopped by during Super Bowl weekend so yes, it was packed but that's honestly expected. Even with how busy it was, I was able to get everything I needed in one place which saved me from running all over town. Huge selection of authentic Mexican groceries, fresh meats, and prepared foods. You can tell this is a go-to spot for a lot of people. The store had a lively atmosphere, shelves stayed stocked, and the lines moved faster than I expected considering the crowd. If you're shopping for game day or just want fresh ingredients and good variety, this place makes it easy. This place is always my go to place

    Aguas frescas
    Yosmar J.

    After about 4 years of not coming back to this place I decided to visit to grab their aguas frescas, a cake, and some guacamole and I have to say this place has drastically changed. The employees are extremely attentive, the place almost looks like a mini Mercado and everything is nicely organized. I thought the aguas frescas weren't really good and had a bit too much sugar for my liking but everything's else was delicious. They offer many fresh and on the go meals.

    Gonzalez flour tortillas so good

    I love coming to Northgate! They carry fresh sweet bread daily, meals and deals. Now if you are looking for fresh marinated meat, fish and chicken this is the place. I always come here to get my fresh seafood. If I have a taste for fish, haiba or shrimp ceviche they have it. They carry all the salsas you can think of- oh yeah all the cheese can also be chosen at the deli. You looking for tamales they got them! Fresh vegetables and fruits as well for a more reasonable price then Ralphs ( my other fav store) The service clerks are fast but remember that depending on the day it will be packed and the lines are long.

    Aguachiles
    Page M.

    I looked through Yelp for hours looking to see who had the best ceviche / aguachiles that deliver but it was almost 9pm so everything is closing down so I walked to northgate because I've never been failed by northgate, my brother and i grew up going to this market getting tamales, tacos, burritos, agua frescas & groceries. My favorite agua frescas are maracuya (passion fruit), strawberry milk, melon, & piña. The best tamales are carne asada, chile peppers & cheese & chicken (verde salsa). The yellow mangoes are the best ones. I sampled a few agua frescas to check its sweetness because it's usually watered down by the end of the day but all the drinks was bussin. I sampled the camarones ceviche & aguachiles, the aguachiles is more spicy than the camarones ceviche which is more my speed. The ceviche shrimp bites were more rubbery and still grey color. The aguachiles shrimp were pink/red from the lime in the aguachiles and the taste was more tangy, it's so tasty and refreshing. I ate the aguachiles with tortilla chips and Doritos tapatio chips. I eat tamales with sour cream (el salvador brand) and guacamole salsa from northgate. OMFG IT BUSS!!! it was still packed in the store towards closing but the employees are helpful and attentive. Love them so much !

    Disappointing! I bought this cantaloupe a couple of days ago and it's not ripe and flavorless.
    Shaun B.

    Disappointing! I bought this diced cantaloupe a couple days ago and when I had a couple of pieces it was hard and without flavor. Unfortunately this is not the first time I've had this happen to me, but from now I'll buy my cut fruit from somewhere else.

    Ordered half a pound of carnitas..and got almost half of that of fat! Las cochinadas que venden.

I've been driving the extra distance to Trader Joe's ever since to do all my food shopping and have been really happy...but tonight I needed a few small things and Trader Joe's was close to closing time, so I rolled the dice and gave Ralph's another chance due to a closer proximity, later hours and the hopes that in all this time some improvements may have been made. I was so wrong; and the decision was a monumental mistake. There isn't a single category where Ralph's is even competitive with TJ's. The organic product quality was literally disgusting and I had to opt to just forego buying two of the items I needed. The bakery item I purchased (cake) was stale, loaded with chemicals, and left a strange film and aftertaste in my mouth to the point I couldn't even finish it. The employees are stressed out and spread thin due to insane understaffing (one poor unfortunate soul sweating & doing their best to man the only open register) Ralph's prices are much, much higher for worse quality and smaller portions. The only thing that seemed like it was a good deal was Kombuchas on sale...but once I got to the counter learned the price shown on the shelf required the downloading of an app, the linking of online accounts to other accounts, and an incredibly confusing time-consuming process that in the end GLITCHED and didn't even work! Long story short, I will be making sure to leave earlier and drive the extra miles to continue to go to Trader Joe's instead.

Perhaps even a better sign was that there were many workers on the floor when I visited--not just at the checkout stands but also filling displays with fruit, checking expiration dates, and mopping floors. This supermarket is at the extreme northeast corner of Redondo Beach, and it seems like it serves a wide swath of different shoppers. Perhaps because of this, it felt like it had a very large selection for the size of the store. There's easy freeway access (if you want to call the 405 a freeway), and the parking lot is pretty large. I didn't know whether to feel safer or less safe when I saw two separate security guards patrolling the parking lot. I forgot to write down her name, but my checker was very sweet and pointed out that one of the cans I was buying was dented. She sent the bagger to grab another can, and while he was gone, she started bagging my groceries. Whatever her name is, she deserves a raise!

I've had their prepared chicken at least 7 times, they're conveniently located near my home and my dad seems to think their meat is decent.

I don't like that. 2) Make sure you warn customers with your "Buy two" to get discount. Discounted price on red tag is predominantly showing but the warning "You must buy two" is nowhere to be found. When I asked the cashier about why do i need to pay regular price, he said i need to buy two and , he said our promo never changed. It's been like that. 3) Your store cashiers need to snile a little bit and show a welcoming attitude. 4) I may not come to your store again due to bad experience I had today. 5) I prefer El Super for price and better customer service. Sorry about this but I hope it helps improving your service. I promised not to set foot here again and will tell my other Muslim Friends not to come here, because of one review I read about a cashier's racism, and I experienced the same today, too. I'd stick to El Super on Hawthorne Blvd just down the road. They have cheaper similar produce but nicer cashiers and workers. Also, not racist.

Their sparkling sodas are always delicious. My favorite is the Hello Kitty strawberry one. I told all my friends about it, and me and my sister go regularly. My sister loves the banana milk!
