Super Mini Market

Since the hubby had a game in the area he headed here after. He picked up a couple of nacatamales, some cacao drink mix, a pineapple pastry as well as a chicken empanada.
The nacatamales left much to be desired, the masa was just to mushy for me. The cacoa drink mix was DELICIOUS, I mixed it with almond milk and there was no need for adding sugar. GREAT, now I can get my cacoa fix anytime!!! The pineapple pastry was also delicious although I wish there could have been more filling. I can comment on the chicken empanada as we haven’t touched it yet!

Been going to this market for over 15 years now, never a bad experience, it is family owned and EVERY member is super friendly. they always have everything you need from aspirin to phone cards to delicious Nicaraguan NacaTamales on weekends. Hot fresh and always a delight. And open 7 days a week 365 days a year. If yoiu are in the area on Fri-Sun.stop by and try the NacaTamales… Im sure you will completly enjoy them and will definately be taking some home…

This little family owned business has been here for almost three decades. It is a convenient store for the local community but they have all kinds of Central American products imported. From Toña beer, queso ahumado, cacao, pinollillo, pinol, Rosquillas, Picos, pioquinto, sopa borracha, jocotes, and the list of deliciousness goes on and on. They also have Baho and Nacatamales on the weekend. So, if you are looking for Nicaraguan or Central American foods, this is the spot to go to. Ask for Harold the manager.

Great place for Nicaraguan food/​imports. Milka as far as the eye can see… Baked goods… Good goods oh my!
Small and quaint and love the shop workers there!

It’s a curious coincidence that two supposed different people with the strikingly similar names «Chris E.» and «Chrissy» (with zero friends) would write multiple tips for Super Mini Market, write a review of my review, and have the hilarious hubris to determine the «validity» of my comments. It’s especially interesting that they would single out my comments, which actually concur with those of other reviewers. This reeks of a half-​baked attempt at marketing by someone with a stake in this shop. I was prepared to and enthused about promoting this business because I myself am Nicaraguan, but the poor quality of the products and foods spoke for themselves. In fact, my initial review was extremely positive (five stars) until I actually got home and used the expired and/​or poor quality products — not on one trip, but several, because I gave them more than one chance. I stand by my opinion, which of course is very individual, and it’s unfortunate and comical that anyone would take it so personally. My goal is to alert fellow Unilocalers in these hard economic times about good and poor shopping experiences. If this doesn’t serve a business, better to work on the merchandise rather than work over the reviewer. I’m sure this business will continue to do as well as it deserves to, and I found the owners to be really charming. But, I don’t like to throw away my money, which is exactly what I ended up doing due to the substandard products I purchased at this shop. Go forth, make money off someone else, just not me.
By the way, Unilocalers and paisanos, you may find this article of interest. It’s about businesses that post fake reviews. In New York, the district attorney fined them totaling $ 350,000. Enjoy:

Inspect your products carefully before leaving the store. I’ve been there a few times now, and have ended up having to throw away some products when I got home because they turned out to be very old. For instance, I don’t remember queso ahumado being a hard cheese. I remember it being soft and squeaky (am I wrong?). Also the crema nicaraguense was a solid block of cream. I asked the owner why it wasn’t soft, and he said it would thaw out. I waited for it to thaw in the fridge several days before I threw it out. Also, some of the drink mixes had expired dates. I tried their vaho and it was good, but the brisket was more fat than meat. And, as another reviewer said, the masa for the nacatamal was too watery and grainy.
Liborio Markets have closed, and an honest market that provides high-​quality Central American goods is sorely needed. I’ve seen a few Central American products at the Vallarta Supermarket chain and Albertsons of all places. Unfortunately, the goods at Super Mini Market are not reliable.
