Ok I’ve bought here a few times and the strawberries have been decent. I was going to buy some strawberries to take when I see my mom because it was her birthday. When I get to the stand. I see this older lady there. The strawberries weren’t that deep color red that I like to see, so I decided to ask the lady if I can sample one. She tells me «No! You know what strawberries taste like! With a rude voice. In my head I was like… really lady? All strawberries taste alike? Or any fruit or vegetable for that matter? Before I go spend my money on a expensive box of strawberries I want to taste one. She could have at least lied to me and said«I tasted them myself and they’re super sweet!» With a smile on her face. So with disgust I left and didn’t buy any at all. I’m just used to the farmers market where you can pretty much try any fruit or vegetable you want before you buy it. The people are way more friendly there. Well I hope she reads this and changes her attitude.

These are the best strawberries in the world. Whenever I drive down to Orange County to visit my mother, I have to bring her a box. They are so sweet and delicious.

Sweetest strawberries ever! They’re never rotten, always sweet and delicious. They never fail to let me down. Granted the service is inconsistent depending on whose at the stand(some are super friendly, others are not so much), but you literally stop at the stand for about 3 minutes to pick which basket you want and pay for them so the service aspect doesn’t bother me at all. Next time you’re driving down Saratoga ave, pull over and buy some. You won’t regret it!

I was really looking forward to visiting this strawberry stand, as I’ve always passed by when I went to my grandparents. I will not come here anymore. The older white woman who was there was so rude! She didn’t even say hello to me when I said hi. I asked her how much and she’s said«8DOLLARS!!», in such a nasty tone. And I said«thank you“like a NORMALPOLITE person would and she didn’t say a word… I can’t even eat my strawberries because every time I look at them I get angry LOL. She treated me horrible when all I was, was nice to her. I wish I never came here. Just a simple hello or thank you is that so hard lady? Hated that I gave my money to her, I would much rather have spent my money at a stand where they treat their costumers nicely. I’m assuming her husband was with her. Looking at the Unilocal reviews he sure sounds like a piece of work also! Do yourself a favor and DONTCOMEHERE!

Don’t buy strawberries from this guy. Firstly these strawberries are not berries he grows. He lies and says he grew them himself. He buys the berries from the same place Gene’s Market gets them from. Secondly, he’ll charge you even more for the berries then what you can buy at the store like Gene’s Market. In the meantime cutting out the middle man and pocketing all the cash From my personal experience he is a loose cannon. He’ll pretend he is a nice guy as he gets your cash but he is mean and nasty. He had yelled at me after questioning where he gets his berries. Claiming he grows them. Interestingly, he likes to say he will«drive the Mexicans out of town» but with my Mexican connection he is getting the berries from us Mexicans. So go figure. I grew up a few miles from around here and you grow up knowing who these people are and others both on Saratoga and Quito peddling their berries for cash. We all know what type of business they run. My question is… does the IRS know?

I’ve been buying from them many time over the last two years but I’ll never ever buy from them again! They are getting more and more expensive. I bought one whole flat today for a school party tomorrow just to find out they are super super super sour! All tiny ones and some rotten ones at the bottom. I’ve picked strawberries every summer and the texture of this batch is no way picked«today»!! Extremely disappointed! I’m not going to have time to shop tomorrow morning to replace my party choice and this is really spoiling it. Having been buying from this guy for such a long time, it’s not hard to believe he actually yelled the pregnant lady whose review is filtered.

The strawberries here are A-MAZING! They’re super –well– fresh and delish. I haven’t had their cherries yet, but I know I will always love their strawberries. They do indeed sell out at the end of the day almost every time they are out there. The strawberry stand is out there usually during the season of strawberries. Go out and get them. Just sayin’.

this strawberry stand comes out for a couple of months just once a year in the summertime but they always sell out by the end of the day! it is located on saratoga avenue between lawrence expressway and cox avenue. the strawberries are red, huge and really sweet! i love coming here and picking up a box of these things! the people who sell the fruit are very nice and friendly which makes coming here enjoyable. they also sell cherries! sometimes i will bring a bunch of baskets to a summer bbq or a party and they are always a big hit! who doesn’t love strawberries?
