La Tiendita Market

I live right down the street so naturally I've stopped by on occasion for necessities. Unfortunately like many other Mexican stores this location is grossly over priced. Small box of cereal over $5-$7, vegetables, all of it OVERPRICED. Todos se aprovechan de su propia gente. The only reason I would ever write a bad review about a small mom and pop shop is horrible experience. It's been a few times now that I go and they have expired food still on the shelves. First time I let the cashier know the chorizo was one month expired. Second time I was in a rush to make lunch so I picked up lettuce, tomatoes, and radish. The lettuce was so old it had red and white mold inside. I had never seen anything like it but it was for sure old. The radish were pre bagged and so disgustingly old. I was so upset I had to go back and I was just going to get my money back and never come back here again but I really needed lunch done asap. The cashier let me exchange them and said I could open the lettuce before I go to make sure it was ok. Opening lettuce in the middle of a store is not what I want to do but I did and left. They have never been rude at all but I do know it's their job to sell quality items that are not expired at the very least. Specially with the ridiculous prices they charge. I might as well go to Safeway and get screwed there at least I'll know I'm not going home with expired moldy food.

Great find in a residential district. The store is clean and the meat looks amazing. The staff are very friendly, helpful and professional. I did not have the opportunity to try the taco stand in front although I will be back soon to try it out. This is a great option in the area, the chain store's cant compete with many options and value pricing.

I was planning on going on a picnic at Kennedy Park using the bbq grills. I was going to grill Portabello mushrooms, corn, Pasilla pepper, bulb of garlic. I found the mushrooms and Gilroy gqrlic but that's it at Sprouts. I looked for the rest at Safeway, Lucky's, could not find. I was recommended Dorado Foods. A neighborhood grocery store off of Decoto Rd across the street from the Union City BART station. Wow! They had fresh corn, Pasilla peppers, qnd fresh cheeses. If you want to avoid the craziness of a crowded parking lot. Want fresh produce, quality meat market and other Mexican food products. This is the place to go.

IF I CAN GIVE THIS PLACE 10 STARS, I WOULD. Not only are they $1 each, but they are THE, best, tacos, EVER. I mean it. I haven't shut up about them since I first had it and I will continue to rave about them to everyone I cross paths with.

Yum!!!!!! cheap tacos and you get to add your own fixings, need I say more :)

NEGATIVE-------0000 Stars.. This store sells food that is spoiled, expired, when you go in the store it smells like spoiled meat- which that is what they will sell you. I have relatives I visit in this area and they have even told me they always return foods there because they sell foods that are spoiled.. GROSS!

World's sweetest & most helpful lady runs the register. The Meat section looks super fresh & the produce looked very well kept. This place is def getting my business!

Maket become way better from new owners tacos papo. Looks better more products and every single day they keep improving the market.

I love this place I live on the same street so I go very often when I want snacks. It's a family business each one of them is so friendly and inviting. Since I'm always there they know me and I told the lady I recently got a job and that's why I haven't been there in a while and she was very genuinely happy for me she was happy to see me there. Their costumer service is the best they're all such sweet people,always in a great mood their great energy is appreciated.

No stars. Purchased Guacamole in a tub, had 4 avocado pits, this is sold by the pound, in one tub. This is the second time this has happened. Try to bring it to someone's attention, of course no one no any thing. This is so WRONG! This is suppose to be a community store. How can that be if this store taking advantage of its customers?
