Supermercado La Loma

I would come here everyday walking to school! People are friendly and speak English. Good food and service. Don’t hang around for too long outside, though. A lot of gang activity. Friend of mine got his bike stolen right in front if there,

I’ve eaten here in the past, and they have great tacos from the lunch counter. Inexpensive and fast. Today I had lunch that was made using their catering, and it was awesome. We had precooked rice and beans, several kinds of salsa, and pre-​marinated carne asada. All we had to do was throw the meat on the grill and cook it through, which went quickly (thinly sliced).
I didn’t purchase any while I was there, but the meat and produce in the grocery section also looked high quality. I’d definitely be back.

Wanted to try coming here out after reading a review for this place. Its location leaves a lot to be desired since I’m sure most (white) people would avoid being at.
The layout is more of a big convenient store than grocery store with a restaurant wing, which is just 4 stools on a counter facing into an open kitchen. Prices were very affordable as my burrito dinner ($ 5.50) and 3 tacos ($ 1.25 corn tortilla, $ 1.50 flour tortilla) came to $ 10 and was amazed to see the guy whip that all up in less than 5 minutes. I also liked that you can watch your food being cooked. Everybody there spoke English so there were no communication problems.
When they say if you want everything on it, they mean onions, cilantro, lettuce, tomato, and cheese and it was a good combination of everything. No complaints on the burrito either, which was packed with everything the rice had flavor, which is something that I really don’t encounter.
Would like to go back and try other entrees.

This is one of those places that you can buy anything that has a Mexican theme, All kinds of products straight from Mexico, but that is not what this review is about, it’s about the little restaurant in the back of the place.
I saw my X the other day and she asked if I would go here to get her a catfish dinner, I didn’t know they even had food, I avoid this type of place, because on the most part they are not very clean.
Well the counter where you order from, has four stools none of them match, but the people are really friendly and you can watch them cook your food,
So I ask the guy can I get a catfish dinner, he nods then comes back with this whole catfish and shows it to you, it was huge I thought it will never cook inside it’s too big, but what the heck it was for my X not me,
I nod and he walks over and throws it in hot oil, after awhile he takes it out and slices it down the sides and puts it back in the oil. then he takes it out and puts it on a plate with beans, rice, and garnishes.
I gave it to my wife and she made me taste it, I have to tell you I have ate catfish all my life and have never, and I mean never tasted something so good, Do yourself a favor if your ever in this area try the catfish from this place, $ 12.00. and you can buy a piñata while your there.
