I was very excited to see this market recently opened close to my home because the few very…read moresatisfying occasions I've been able to shop there, the greatest hindrance was distance. Why would I even bother if other markets are available closer? The items on the shelves--specifically, locally produced Cebollas Honey from fantastic FabensTX--and other "healthy/organic" products, combined with excellent prices. As it is the most recent store to open, and it was not trapped within a maddening mall, I definitely wanted to investigate. It's location on George Dieter & East Glen, immediately South of the USPS office, is quite convenient. (motor)vehicle parking is behind, off East Glen. And the roads have been resurfaced--very nice! It has good pedestrian access (steps only, no ramps) from George Dieter, and no bicycle racks (yet). Leaving my eBikeKit-assisted CruzBike outside the automatic doors, I went inside this much smaller store than the massive stand alone Vista Market much farther away East in North Zaragoza. Obviously, this meant fewer items were available. My quest was not for the wonderful Cebollas Honey, but for Mac & cheese. I was initially disappointed to not find any, but I just needed to look more intensely. I did find it, though Not clearly identified, and I was definitely disappointed at the lack of variety of available--and I was even more disappointed at the higher prices. I also saw a more expensive (than the competition) roasted chicken, but it was a much larger bird. Despite my concern that this might be a factory farmed (i.e., not free range) chicken that was huge because it had been fed a steady diet of drugs, I took solace i the knowledge that Vista Markets is interested in satisfying their customers and would sell wholesome products. (I have since sampled this well-cooked bird; so far, so good!) Perhaps the finest aspect of my experience in this market was cashier Estefania.(FIVE stars for her!) With my four items (3 mac & cheese, 1 pollo), I saw that the checkout line wasn't long at all, but the one customer ahead of me had a cart full of items. Fortunately, Estefania saw this and waved me over to her checkout stand. This extremely pleasant young woman very quickly got me through and out the automatic door, ready to hop on my bike. Besides no bike racks, I noted the smaller access zone, almost like an alleyway, which was a bit full of shopping cart corral and exterior seating. On a warmer day, I can see many customers enjoying eating/visiting/smoking out here. I did not see outlets available for sitters to plug in electric devices, nor butt kits, but I didn't look for those either. Overall, a satisfying experience here; I'll return, and it gets my "iWheel of Approval!"

I was super excited to hear about a Chinese market here in El Paso. Coming from Brooklyn to Dallas…read moreand now El Paso I've been missing the ease of just grabbing dumplings or any sauces I need. I was pleasantly surprised with the selection available. Sadly the pricing reflects the fact that you're in El Paso. Nearly double what you'd pay at a Chinese market. So that stinks. It beggars can't be choosers. Some of the items didn't look too fresh and it was a little dusty in some spots. So not a lot of rotation of products. But overall was happy to grab some dumplings and egg rolls!

The service at this market is absolutely awful!!!! I spent almost $200, some of that was live…read moreseafood. I purchase some clams and some crayfish. The crayfish were in little net bags, I did see movement so I grabbed 4bags. 3.3lbs of those were dead. The cashier failed to give us our clams, I called them when we got home she apologized for "forgetting to give us our bag". We live far west and in traffic the drive is over 30mins. The Manager eventually joined the call and told me I had to pick up my clams that day (we wouldn't even have made it in time as they were about to close) or I would lose my money because that was our responsibility. I asked if he could just give me a credit for the dead seafood and the clams they kept. I took a video of the dead crayfish and weighed them in a scale. He absolutely refused and became hostile on the phone. I told him I would call my bank, and take to social media so consumers would know who they are dealing with. They kept taunting me and deleting my comments. He posted a sign about bags and posted that on TikTok, then also posted something stating "if you don't know how to handle live seafood, don't buy it". I have lived on the coast for a large part of my life and I'm very familiar with handling seafood. This is incredibly childish and unprofessional. The amount for these items totaled approximately $40-50, I spent almost $200. I honestly didn't see a big deal. I told them I would never return, their response was "THANK GOD!".

A cashier was talking with a another man, the only 2 people in store, no acknowledgement, no greeting as I walked in, completely ignored by worker. I had to walk navigate around the clutter, finally found quail eggs the fridge it was in was barely cool, date was blank. Took a chance, and took it to the register, the cashier was sitting and texting, ignoring me...I turned to leave, when he finally stood up and rang up the eggs. In middle of transaction, he calls someone to start chatting. He just stood at register, and I stood there, waiting for my change and receipt, took him like 15 seconds, he finally reaches into register to give me my change. Did not tell me "thank you" , he didn't say anything to me, at all. It smells of bad fish and looks depressing, I love my doggy and will do anything for her, but I will NEVER go into this depressing place, again!

El Super Grocery is a fantastic find for anyone looking to get high-quality, freshly fried fish…read more This massive grocery store has an impressive selection across all departments - from meat and dairy to a full-service bakery and food court. I was particularly impressed by the fish section. Unlike typical grocery stores, El Super will fry up any fish you select for you on the spot. This is a game-changer if you don't want to deal with the hassle and smell of frying fish at home. The tilapia I got was perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with no fishy flavor. They'll fry up fillets as well as whole fish - just be aware that they don't remove the heads or tails if you go with the whole fish option. The fish section at El Super is truly impressive - they have a huge variety of fresh seafood options, from whole fish to fillets and beyond. As someone used to the traditional Asian grocery experience of picking a live fish and having it prepared, I was initially a bit thrown off by the process at El Super. Rather than selecting a live fish, you choose the pre-packaged fish you want from the refrigerated cases. You then take the fish to the counter and they give you a slip with the price. From there, you have to go back up to the front registers to pay for the fish before returning to the counter to have it fried. At first, this extra step threw me for a loop, as I'm used to a more streamlined process. But once I got the hang of it, I appreciated the efficiency. The staff were very friendly and helpful in guiding me through the system. When I returned to the fish counter after paying, they immediately got to work frying up my tilapia. I watched in amazement as they carefully dropped the whole fish into the hot oil, frying it to crispy perfection without a hint of greasiness. The transformation from raw fish to delectable fried dish was really impressive. The end result was absolutely worth the extra step. The tilapia was cooked to absolute perfection - the outside was a beautiful golden brown and the meat inside was moist and flavorful, with no trace of that unpleasant fishy taste. I also really appreciated that they were willing to fry up other seafood items beyond just the pre-packaged fish, like calamari and shrimp. That expanded the possibilities for my fried seafood feast. Overall, while the process took a bit more navigating than I expected, the quality of the fried fish at El Super more than made up for it. I'll definitely be back to take advantage of this awesome service again! They fry fish at the Gateway location and Zaragoza, though I'm not sure if other locations do it as well. -TODOELPASO 10501 Gateway Blvd W # 600, El Paso, TX 79925 703 N Zaragoza Rd, El Paso, TX 79907

Also had the crudo (salmon, tuna, scallops) with the soft delicious bread. The deviled eggs were good too. Truth be told I came for the oysters tho- a variety of easy and west coast options. You would never think downtown El Paso would have a spot like this but I'm glad they do!! It's a great place to pregame before a chihuahuas game!

Cocktails are uniquely crafted, the ambiance pulls you right in and the bar is probably the best place to be! It's very clean as well! They have a good range of an oyster selection with great pairings, something for everyone at the table! I was so happy to see Crystals hot sauce again! I'm a dirty martini girl and of course I'd recommend blue cheese stuffed olives! The fries were crispy, hot and served as a nice sized portion as a shareable. Customer service is 10/10, very attentive, kind and knowledgeable on the menu items and engagement with guests. I've had the opportunity to visit twice and this will be one of my frequent regular visits while here in El Paso! As they say, the world is your oyster--and this place serves some of the best pearls of the sea I've had."

Arirang is one of the best places in El Paso for authentic Korean and Japanese groceries and…read moreprepared foods. Having just returned from Japan, walking through the store brought back a lot of great memories. It has that familiar atmosphere, with a wonderful selection of imported products that can be difficult to find elsewhere in the area. The store carries an impressive variety of Korean and Japanese ingredients, snacks, frozen foods, beverages, and fresh produce. Their prepared food section is also worth a visit. The Korean dumplings are outstanding, especially the glass noodle dumplings, which are among my favorites. They also offer delicious japchae, kimchi jjigae, and many other ready-to-enjoy Korean specialties. The store recently came under new management, so unfortunately the 10% military discount is no longer available. Some imported items are definitely on the expensive side, but that is to be expected with specialty products shipped from overseas. Overall, I still find the pricing to be fair, particularly considering the quality, authenticity, and selection. What truly keeps me coming back is the customer service. Marianna and Beth are always welcoming, friendly, and incredibly helpful. They take the time to answer questions, recommend products, and make every visit enjoyable. So, If you're looking for authentic Korean or Japanese ingredients, prepared meals, or simply want to experience a taste of East Asia, Arirang is absolutely worth a visit!!!

A very good selection for the size of the store. They have limited produce and side dishes, but they are excellent quality. The refrigerated cases and the two large frozen sections are excellent. They also sell a good variety of base ingredients, oils, vinegars, soy sauces, jangs, spices, seasoning mixes and condiments. And a whole aisle of instant ramen and other instant noodles! Heavy on Korean options, but they also have some Japanese, Indonesian and other offerings. There are tea and snack sections too. And a good rice selection - multiple varieties of Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Thai and more. Service is always quick and efficient. The store is very clean and I feel confident and safe buying my food there.
