Can't even wrap it let alone eat it the foul smell hit my nose first can't eat it man can't do it get it right Northgate Market
Vanessa R.

Not one star deserved but I had to in order to post!!! Wow what happened to your guys chorizo making skills? Who makes this horrible tasteless foul smelling as if you guys are making it out of old meat I don't like it I will never buy chorizo from here never again. I pray y'all are not doing this to the chorizo meat the smell is bad and I can taste the smell i gagged and had to spit it out. This is my 2nd complain on here about the Mexican chorizo.

I live right behind Gonzalez Northgate Market, and they have their delivery trucks come in every day from 5 AM-6:30 AM. These trucks and the sounds of unloading are very loud, and I cannot sleep through the noise. Despite speaking to the manager many times over many weeks about it, nothing has changed. This market breaks city ordinances around quiet hours, and I am extremely disappointed by the lack of response from management. I just want to sleep without being woken up at 5 AM everyday, with no way of falling back asleep.

I have heard about Northgate market through their radio commercials and probably television commercials also but today was my first time ever going into one and shopping. I have to say that my experience was excellent. I've never had such genuine customer service at a grocery store in my entire life. There were a total of three employees who engaged with me to ask me how I was doing and if I needed any help throughout my shopping visit. What made it more authentic was that they all spoke to me in Spanish! Beyond the noteworthy customer service, the fresh food such as the ceviche bar and tamale bar is amazing! Plus, the overall Latin influence is unbelievable. I felt like I was in Central America. They even sell piñatas! The store has some great charm to it and I definitely plan to return.

I love their $7 salad, I also got the ready made guacamole and some baked chips for lunch dinner while on the go. Something healthy. Came up to $14, they have really good products and cheap prices! Also the way the store is organized is pretty nice. Good service as well.

Which Northgate Market is larger West Covina location or LA Puente?

I think the West Covina store might be slightly larger, but it's also a little nicer inside than La Puente...in my opinion. We go to the West Covina store regularly.

Does this location sell the "Listo" packages? In example the raw salmon with jalapeño butter or shrimp fajitas ready to cook?

Yes

There's street and garage parking for customers. Plenty of tables at this location inside and outside. The location could so use maintenance as some unoccupied tables were still dirty.

We got a Chai and Matcha Latte and a Dubai Chocolate mochi donut & Salted Caramel Pretzel Supreme Croissant. The drinks were solid and pretty standard. The pastries though were GOOD! The Dubai Mochi one is worth trying. That Salted Caramel Pretzel Supreme Croissant was insanely good! I loved the textures and crispiness from the first bites. It's also cream filled with custard.

It's better to come in during the morning because by afternoon, there is a good chance you will see a fly in the glass casing touching all the pastries. Yikes! It's happened on multiple instances. Also, employees do not use gloves when handling pastries whether that be from putting your pastries in bags at checkout, warming it up for you, or bagging individual pastries to be put on shelves. No gloves used. Now for the poor customer service and management.. I believe the unprofessional customer service stems from untrained management as employees are often frazzled and seem clueless on effective time management. If there's more than 2 customers in line, employees suddenly don't know what to do. They go from taking an order to ignoring the next customer in line to go make drinks for 5 minutes then come back. Then while waiting for drinks, people who ordered drinks after me got theirs first. I want to call out two specific employees (1 male with ear piercings and 1 female) on Sunday morning 04/26/26. There was no one else behind me as I ordered 2 drinks one being a frappe. They were conversing the whole time which I don't mind but it hindered and slowed down the timing in making my drinks. While the girl was making my frappe and pouring it in the cup, she STOPPED AND PAUSED TO CONTINUE HER CONVERSATION. while we were standing there just waiting. It's just extremely unprofessional. Also might be a management issue to have poorly trained team members as employees don't seem to stay for long.

My favorite is their sea salt coffee (iced for the hot days, hot for the chilly days) they are both good in any way. Perfect sweetness and tasty aroma of their coffee. Have to say it's different from the ground coffee I purchased before. When you make it at home it tastes different. So, the best bet is to go there to enjoy it or pick it up togo. If you decide to sit down and enjoy a piece of bakery or cake, it's not bad. Place is clean and ambience is nice with music right on you vibe, keep you mood uplifted. I always order birthday cakes for my family on special occasion and other fresh breads served daily. Prices and tastes tailored to Asian buds not too salty or too sweet, just perfect While you are there, grab some snacks as well, they are crunchy and nutty (don't know the name). My kids love their cookies and coconut cubes. Just stop by and sign up with your apps because you get points so you can redeem it for something you like in the future. And they also have a monthly special like BOGO drinks and bakery , Check it out ~!

Honestly, perhaps it was a batch issue, but the coffee tasted that the last leg of a pre-made pitcher of coffee with unfiltered coffee grinds. I like my coffee bitter, but this was beyond bitter, towards burnt or aged coffee grinds. I'll have to try it elsewhere to compare. By far the worse, Vietnamese Coffee experience.

This is now called " Flora Bakery & Tea"…read more This placed was called "Lucky Sakura" before when it was first opened in 2021-2022. It is located in the Tokyo Central plaza near the Dunkin donut stores. Plenty of parking because it shared with a whole bunch of stores in the strip mall. Regardless of change of owner or the change of name, this place is always known for its mochi with stuffings and cute design. You can always customize your preference or have to custom make for you. The difference is probably they have less variety of food now, just mochi and cakes. Flora Bakery & Tea has been in business for almost a year. The quality of mochi is still great, size is still big and cost is still kind of pricey. You get 3 for $20. The exterior & interior design of this store is pretty with flowers and cherry blossoms ( like a garden ) feeling. It has an area where you can sit outside or inside to chitchat and eat your dessert. They have many kind of options. Different cartoon and different stuffings in there for example, strawberry, green apple, peach, Oreo, mango. Each one has a very good taste to it. Highly recommended for dessert place and there isn't many if any of these kind if store around in LA / Orange county.

Super excited because the mini fruit tarts are going to look amazing on my newly purchased dessert tray! I was feeling a bit sleepy so I decided to fuel up & eat breakfast while I was there. I ordered a Vanilla Latte & a side order of 3 eggs + Sausage Links. If you're a big eater and want the additional potatoes and pancakes, I recommend paying a few dollars more and ordering the Breakfast platter. The Vanilla Latte came in a paper cup (a bit bummed out by not being able to take a more IG worthy picture of that), but it actually tasted really good! Same with the sausage links - it was probably one of the best tasting ones I've had for breakfast in a while. Aside from their wide selection of pastries and food options, their customer service was phenomenal. Every customer that walked through the door was greeted upon arrival and thanked on their way out.

However, the lady at the counter informed us they would not have any ready until 2 PM and was quite dismissive and short with us. I was next in line, it was now the second person at the counter helping me, ( male ) once he knew I was looking for a guava cake, he immediately went to the back going out of his way to check and ensure we took a fresh guava cake home right then and there. He saved Mother's Day !!! I must also mention Danny and Lissette are amazing every time we order cakes for family events. It's always a great experience, and we'll definitely keep coming back for their goodies.
