Super super cute! Intimate family atmosphere. Found Everything i was looking for. Prices are right and the hot food bar had me absolutely wanting a plate or two. Lol. And i found the biggest loofah in El Mandado!
I love this store..it has alot of variety, well organized and very clean. The staff are friendly and ready to answer any questions. Check out is fast.Meat section had great options and well organized and so is the freezer section. Fair prices. The candy at the front is my sons favorite for the toy that comes with it..I love those too. There are also some stores after check that sell some cool stuff even a phone repair stand.
Food is great here. However, when ordering the lady taking my order didnt speak English. Also because I couldnt speak Spanish she skipped me and took the Spanish customer behind me. The customer spoke English so he helped translate. When the customer left I received my order but was missing something. I told one of the ladys and they all bust out laughing speaking fast in spanish
Nice layout clean and organize isle did seem a bit small when two customers walking down same isle was kinda tight than most grocery also they have a restaurant smelled so good will have to try next time good variety of products on shelf
A nice store however everything in the store is in Spanish(especially at the meat section) so if you dont speak or understand Spanish, youll need to rely on the visual to know what you want also they mostly only have two cashiers open at a time and the line can get really long sometimes. Overall a really nice store!
I echo Barbara. This is a clean, organized store. I was not able to find ajicitos dulces, which I use to make fresh sofrito (so much better than the stuff in the jar.) I was able to find culantro (recao) which I grow in my garden anyhow. But not the ajicitos dulces, which add the right smokiness flavor. I wish you carried this variety of fresh pepper.
They have a lot of products. Good prices and the food is fresh. There is a little restaurant inside that is GREAT!!!!
Rude service and hands arent washed after bathroom.Asked for a Bean and Cheese burrito. Recieved my burrito and it was a bean and fresh cheese, queso fresco, burrito. Went to talk to lady who took my order to get it swapped with a non-fresh cheese burrito since my wife cant eat queso fresco cheese due to pregnancy... even offered to give the old one back. The lady, Beatriz(?), just said, I dont want your old burrito, Id just throw it out and completely ignored my request.Additonally, my wife used the restroom and saw a female employee walk out of the bathroom without washing her hands.Really nice store, but the employees need some work...
Great place to buy all different sorts of Hispanic foods or products. Extremely valid
Has a latin cafè inside to get central American food and Yerba Mate
My first time. Unfortunately I went on a Sunday afternoon. I am Puerto Rican and am looking for specific produce and was unable to find it. I think it was because I went later. I did find the bacalao I was looking for. I cant wait to go back. They have a huge hotcase but not open on Sundays.
Very clean, great selection of groceries and the sit-down restaurant is amazing. They serve the best torta Ive ever eaten.
I give 4 stars! Because, El Mandado carries a vast majority of Latino products. But, customer service needs to be improved.
Really great place, love the style and art but also the food. We went to buy fish and lobster for Lent (Cuaresma) and they were fresh! Lot of Hispanic variety and there is also a place to eat and/or to take!
I enjoy this place a lot. Theyve got a pretty nice food place inside and obviously since its a food market, they also got a large selection of meat, vegetables, frozen goods and everything in between.
These kids Cashiers they dont know how to give properly the change back in your hands!! They just through the change at you..!!!! Dont even say Hi or hello..! Bad really bad Manners!!!!
Great fresh meats, bakery, and even an in-store restaurant. I am so happy to be able to get tamales to go! I really love the fresh vegetables, dried peppers, and cookware and spices that are available. A must see/must go to!
Expensive and they dont sell mushrooms.
I really enjoy shopping her. Its clean and spacious. The people who work are kind and helpful.
Always pleasant staff. Nice and friendly. The deli food is awesome 👌
Meat prices are awesome, and their seafood is fresh. Not too crowded, and had fast lines!
I love this store but I’ve noticed that the older ladies that work In the restaurant part of el mandado are so rude to non-Latino customers. They ignore the customers, and speak Spanish to them even after they hear them say they don’t speak Spanish. Its honestly disturbing to see people like this work in customer service when they have none. I hope who ever is in charge or the owners start holding their employees accountable for not doing their jobs. We go there to shop and spend money, no one is giving out anything for free and yet they seem to act like they are doing us a favor by doing their jobs that they get paid for. Also for management get people that are willing to help and that have common sense to help anyone regardless of their language.
Although dropping a rider off, I was surprised how nice this place looked inside and it seemed to have allot of ready made food.
The store is clean and organized, the meat department is very clean, they should have more items, like Ranchera preparada, Pollo Milanesa preparado, (that is prepared meat and chicken ready to go on tje grill) I have been to other places and the meat departments were dirty, old meat, and flies, the prices for the vegetables are too high at El Mandado
Unlimited quantities of Latin American traditional country dishes, produce, and many more staples. Good service, polite employees, eager to help.
Smaller, although well maintained grocery with much less than old location.
Great selection of latin american products
Great experience and clean restroom
Nice, new supermarket with lots of variety, good parking & attentive staff.
Good service
This is good place to shop if you are looking for ethnic foods to cook. Anytime I want to purchase a particular kind of meat, like oxtails or goat, this where I go. The selection of ethnic spices is great also. However, the staff and any visiting vendors, dont make any effort to be courteous to any non Hispanic customers. The staff of the onsite laundry mat makes it very clear that African Americans are not welcomed.
Great, clean, new location with great selection. The new building turned out beautiful.
Nice place to buy some different food that you can not find in big names grocery store.
Had everything I needed and then some.
The best meat department!!
Tasty authentic Mexican food
One of the guys sticking observed me confused and came to helpPlantain availability but higher than Walmart
This is one of my favorite places to get Latin international foods. They have good prices on the produce they carry. And I love their meat department. They have a good marinated beef for grilling.
Good, imported foods from Central and South America. Some prices, however, are a bit higher than other international and regular supermarkets.
Staff are nice and are helpful. The store can be overwhelming if going in the first time. Theres so much stuff. Many overhead signs are in Spanish and English, but most importantly translated correctly. Im not often on this end of town, but if I cant find it at the typical smaller ethnic grocery stores then Im sure to find it here.
Great place to get real Latin American products. Recently moved from Chicago and this is like a scaled up version of so many small format stores I used to frequent. The in house tacos were great too.
It has more than most hispanic stores when it comes to international items. I can find a decent variety of Peruvian products and got good plantains (platano macho or platanos) to make fried plantains.
The store over all is good because you find different varieties of hispanic foods! There is also a salon, a restaurant, a laundry and I believe some type of legal office amongst other little vendors inside the store. Some of the cashiers have attitudes and dont give you a warm greeting, and usually are talking with someone on the side or the other cashier working next to them, but produce and products are usually pretty good. Sometimes prices for simpler things can be outrageous.
Nice lay out of items. Was able to find what I needed quickly. Good variety. Good service.
Very clean and good customer relatinnd
Nice Latin supermarket with a variety of products. The aisles are fairly clean and very well organized. The only downsize is that some products prices are a little higher than their competitors.
As a resident Panamanian/Colombian it is quite hard to find some of the specific ingredients or treats I have come to love, but this wonderful supermarket has them all and then some. They even have culantro (not cilantro) which is hard to come by. If you are in need of something latin, or looking to broaden your horizon of cooking, look no further.
Got all the Spanish needs. The only beer moving on those shelves are Coronas. Beware if you get anything else. I think the Heineken were still fresh. It’s definitely the go to spot for your tacos or lunch plates they serve. Highly recommend eating here if you don’t like the roach coach(just kiddding food truck) taco experience.
Great prices. Love the produce and meat selection. The restaurant has amazing tacos and the fresh guacamole is the best Ive had.
Very clean, much nicer than stores where we are from in maryland
One of my favorite places to get pre-marinated chicken and beef for tacos or fajitas. The staff is always super helpful. I was a little bummed when I went in December looking for tamales but they didnt have any.
Good store and have Peruvian products !!!
They have a restaurant in the rear and its great. I always get the family deal. Rice, beans, meat, tortillas, and a drink for only 28 dollars!
Great spot, love the new location.
A little hard to find some things in the aisles, but the food is good at the restaurant and the cashiers tend to be nice.
Prices were good,they have a good selection of natural products and produce that are healthy,I found Soursop tea something I had been looking for.
Great grocery store that has a restaurant inside that has some great food.
Good selection of food
Great Groceries, They have every fruit and vegetable and there all cleaned and drench with nutrition and fiber
Lots of groceries nice people, lots of options for vegetables and meat options and other traditional mexican foods and spices and drinks
Very convenient!! Love this place!
No good the cassie ladys. TroubleBad service an price runway.No no good
Much smaller, but still good
This is the best supermarket for any Latino to find great deals!!
A preferred spot for Salvadoran food. this place is absolutely outstanding. the service here is better than most. menu is like a place in san francisco i loved.
I was impressed with the amount of business or shops included in this place. I thought it was just a supermarket with Hispanic products/produce, but for my surprise it has a lawyers office, hairstylist, special events clothing and souvenirs ( Baptisms, first communion), sports clothing (Famous Clubs Jerseys), Boots, Money Grams, and a little restaurant, which by the way, all the cooked food looked delicious, and despite my best judgement I decided to try some and OMG, everything I had was delicious, definitely authentic flavors. So, I went back again, but this time I brought some friends and they also liked the place/food. My only not so good comment would be that it can use a better lighting, it kind of looks outdated, not too inviting. But I would definitely keep recommending this place
Looking for that food that you saw and loved in Texas or New Mexico, but the local stores dont carry the brand and look at you strangely when you ask for it? You should look here instead. Most employees speak English, especially if theyre younger.
This is the best supermarket to get real authentic mexican food. It has clean bathrooms and has the best food Ive ever tasted!
Almost always find your fresh vegetables for the BEST Dominican dishes!!
Being a non Spanish speaking person the people here were very welcoming although some did not speak very good English they were very nice and easy to communicate with. I had food from the food counter and the pupusas were great as well as the barbacoa tacos. They have a great selection of Hispanic foods also you can get you hair cut your jewelry fixed and your money orders in one spot.
Hidden gem! Great variety of latino products and great mini restaurant! Very authentic food!
Great store. Excellent selection of authentic Hispanic foods along with the usual grocery items. Employees very helpful and friendly.
I was actually at church next door Raleigh International Church a great sanctuary to come and worship, see you next time. The supermarket is nice too mainly spanish/african foods
They sell those hard to find exotic/international foods and the price is right!
I always go here for my meats good price and fresh.
They have a very large selection of pain products. With a bakery and taco restaurant inside. Some things arent labeled correctly so sometime you dont know the price until you get to check out.
They have cup noodles that are 16 for $4 that is an amazing deal for me that I cannot pass up I will be a customer for life Love Mexican grocery store!
I remember it had way more back in 2007....what happen
There have only been 2 Hispanic stores I have been to, this and Compare Foods. This store has a pretty large selection of Hispanic foods from all over Latin America, including tropical fruits and juices. I was a little disappointed that the bakery lacked selection. Other than that, the prices were reasonable.
The hot food line is amazing. Food was fresh and had plenty of flavor. Service is friendly and fast.
Good place to buy groceries and eat too.
Im like .but need better. In have more options of variety in fruit,better prices,Cream,Cheeses,and services because im buy head beef..but not want cut..and other store mexican in Greenville.nc..help cutting the head beef in6 or more piceces...but everything like..
Nice Hispanic grocery. They have a cafe in center with depending on what you order is fair to good food. The carnitas are very good.
Siempre son bien amables. Tienen de to do que puedes necesitar.Theyre always very friendly and so nice. They have everything you could possibly need and be looking for...even the hard to find item on your list.
Great meat and they have my frozen sweet plantains at a good price
The only place to buy Hispanic groceries. The food is good and the prices are very good. Staff is bilingual
Will not eat at this place tortias were hard meat was dry
El pastor and carne asada was good.
Selection isnt as big as it seems considering the size of the store. That being said they do have a lot of things you cant find at other grocers. Was hoping they would have tamales for sale but no luck
Came here for the first time as we are exploring the areaWe found the place impeccably clean, very well stocked with Mexican, Colombian, Ecuadorian, Puerto Rican and Venezuelan productsPrices were reasonable and the quality of the merchandise in the produce and meat counters were top notchWe also ate at the small food court they operate and again found the food preparation, serving and eating areas very clean. The staff was friendly and eager to help and the prices very reasonableIf you are looking for a well stocked supermarket when you are craving other origin food and products, give them a try. I believe you will become a regular customer
El Mandado is a fantastic Super Market I go there all the time to get authentic Mexican ingredients they have everything your looking for ...and great Mexican food to order 5 stars!!!
Pretty good. Its good for their food. Place isnt as sanitary as it should be though
Great selection of produce. This place has th most friendly employees
Just found it. Big and I love that they have a good selection of Spanish items for my RECIPES.I will be back
