Look out Albertson's & Von's These Guys Got It Down!
If you are looking for some of the freshest produce in town then you need to look here. We stopped to take a look of what went in to the old Mervyn's store on Meadows Lane and upon walking in we were floored at the size of this place.
The produce section makes Whole Foods look small. They don't have organic products, but they have a lot of good looking produce. I found it interesting that almost all the produce was from the US or Mexico. I could not find anything from China. The prices were really low. We bought a big shopping cart full of supplies to make salsa and the whole cart was under $58.
They have a large food court and a section that makes fresh tortillas and chips. The nice ladies gave my kids free samples of the tortillas hot from the oven, and now it is their favorite store.
They have a restaurant where you can order your favorite Mexican meal and a large seating area and soda fountains for free refills. Ordering was a little difficult as my Spanish was no better than the order takers English... I'll have to work on that!
I recommend Cardenas Market for produce and the tasty restaurant only. We will stick to Whole Foods and Costco for meat.
