Store:
Colorful interior w clearly marked spaces. This store has good overall selection of services as well as items for authentic Mexican cuisine prep including tools. Store has a full service bakery, tortilleria, catering & café. FYI a crowd gathered around the bakery & it turns out they were waiting for fresh bolillos.
Minus a star for lack of fresh nopales (aka cactus, how can this be a Mexican store w/​o the one thing that is more Mexican than the flag itself?) & fowl odor in the meat section that was so aweful I had to cover my nose/​mouth.
Staff was pleasant & couteous when I asked questions.
WC: Center of west wall, ladies room had baby changing table.

I’ve been to this store many of times. Its always busy meats, tortillas, bakery goods always fresh. when you walk in to the store the smell you just want to start eating and drinking.
