La Posta Market - Imperial Beach, California

Rhianna Phelps

Very small local grocery market. Higher prices than outside of Imperial Beach. For locals however, the place is a STAPLE!

If you need to grab something extra for a meal and don't want to go further to another store, come here. I would NOT recommend this place for daily shopping needs as the prices on canned, boxes and packaged items are HIGH.

I go there for the meat and produce mostly. The produce section is small, but has the basics for Mexican/American cooking.

Their hot food counter is open during the day and serves delicious food and salsas. They make their own tortillas and tortilla chips in house as well as other items and they are GREAT!

Clean store, and you never have to wait long in line. ATM inside, water machines outside, liquor, cigarettes and hot Mexican food plates for eating on their patio, or to go.

The reasons for the lack of stars are high prices, small store/selection, dirty parking lot, and a couple of rude employees.
Other than that, a solid little grocery store for us locals ?

I stopped in for avocados and a few other produce items. It's a nice market that includes hot food items that can be eaten on their patio or available to go.

I was disappointed, however, on the quality of the avocado. They were well priced at .99 each, but they were either over ripe and very squishy, well beyond good usage. Why they were still on the shelf is a mystery to me.

The onions and peppers I picked up were in good condition and well priced. The cashier was friendly enough.

Stop here frequently for the hot food. Prices are very reasonable and food is terrific.

The prepared food looks delicious! We bought a couple pork tamales and although the meat was a little light, they were still pretty good. The salsa bar has a lot of selection and those prices are very fair. Everything else we looked at was overpriced.

The service is excellent but the prices are a lot higher than most of the grocery stores in the area , I was in a pinch and had to buy a beef stew packet I usually pay $1.49 , it was $3.99, I wish I had the budget to shop here all the time but I don't , it's a nice place.
