  THEY CLOSE SHOP EARLY They start taking everything off the shelves at least a half hour before they close, so there's little point in showing up then. I made this mistake once and won't ever bother going back then again, as it was a waste of time and gas. Unlabeled and disorganized shelves are also a problem. If you are looking for item X and don't see it, you don't know if you just missed it or if they are out. If you could find a shelf with that label, and it was empty, then you would know they were out, but they often don't label shelves. They also put different items in different places each time I visit. For example, fresh tomatoes were in 2 or 3 different places, not on adjacent shelves, and only some were labelled with a price. Same thing for canned goods, with things like canned hummus spread all over. So, finding a particular brand can be quite time consuming. On the plus side, prices on produce (such as eggs and vegetables) are great, and I never have to wait in a line (although there may be no cashier at the front from time to time). There's one woman who works there as a cashier (I suspect she is one of the owners) who goes out of her way to find things I couldn't, but I'd prefer that they just made it easy for me to find things myself. So, I'd gladly up them to 5 stars if they would stop closing shop early and label and organize all the shelves. (If they want to take things off the shelves at 8:30, then they should list that as their closing time.) Also, they had eggs that expired 3 weeks ago listed with the tag "Discount", but it did not say "Expired", so be sure to check all their dates.

  I saw a sale flyer for this market and thought the prices looked phenomenal, so I stopped by on a Saturday morning....and was shocked by the lack of cleanliness in the store. One of the freezers was leaking, and the floors were all dirty. More importantly, the store smelled distinctly like rot. The produce section had fruits and vegetables that blatantly had mold on them and the corn was old and withered. The prices were great, but I wouldn't trust the products. I can't speak for the canned goods, prepared food, or meats....I left after seeing the produce section. ....but on my way out, the cashier was swatting six or seven flies that were hovering by the window. Health code inspectors would've had a field day!
