El Super

I’m reviewing the prices of the food and customer service… Very affordable and friendly staff. I’ve never had a bad experience. The only thing upsetting is the kids running around like lost cattle, but that’s the parents not having control over them. Yes it’s ghetto but you chose to go there.

I was shocked by the low reviews of this place. Yes, this market is in a bad part of the neighborhood but you know what we live here so suck it up or go somewhere else. The quality off the food is great, and overall very cheap. The store is kept clean and each time I go employees are always very kind and helpful with what I need to find. They also have a good selection of bee honey which majority of markets don’t have unless they’re expensive stores. I’ll definitely be shopping here for groceries. Why spend $ 200 to stick up in food when I could spend $ 80 for the same thing and get more food.

I live close by but never shop there anymore. The store is filthy and poorly kept. The produce department is a mess, the reason why their produce is soo cheap is because they are gmos and filled with pesticides, the store is located in a poor area and is marketed to the poor who are naturally on a low budget. Theyre food is low quality, its garbage plain and simple.

The meat market section of this store smells like a zombie. Horrific smelling food. The market is not really clean and I would not go back again.

Bad customer service. I was getting a coupon and this lady working in the cashier was being rude and instead of helping us out, she gave my mom and I attitude. The manager didn’t help as well. Never going to this super again to waste my money!

Hoy nuevamente desedi pasar a hacer algunas compras con Ustedes, todo se ve muy rico y muy orfanizado. Me Encanto el servicio al cliente de jackelin en el frente de la caja rejistradora. muy Profesional !!!
Congratulations to all of you who make it possible !

This place is a friggin’ sweat box. Ive been into 2 El Supers (this one and the one on Sherman Way) and they both are so dingy and dirty, i feel like i crossed the border into Tijuana. Their selection sucks and the employees dont know or care about anything.

All and I do mean ALL employees should be fired. Deals are descent.
Carts are dirty and old. You see trash everywhere, literally. Last time I went to El Super I saw a cracked egg on the sweet bread, juice spilled on the floor and over heard employes cursing at each other (one of the employes smelled like beer.) I walked out the store not buying anything.
CASHIERS are so UNFRIENDLY. They don’t even say smile or say Hello at all. They won’t even look you in the face. I’ll be taking my business elsewhere.

I have observed a few customers that feel like this place is a buffet. It’s not rare to see someone taste a nut, or chomp on a apple here but recently I saw a gentleman eat a entire rotisserie chicken and walk out! Great place to people watch ⁵⁄₅

My mom loves coming to this store… Even after both she & my sister fell (not the same day) & no one ever called to see if they were OK after wards. The day my mom fell she also had to ask them for an ice pack ’cause the manager didn’t bother asking if she needed one.
I don’t understand why they have two flat screen 3D TVs showing promos (one by the bakery & the other at the meat department). The promos don’t bother me as much as the 3D effect. The screen looks like you can scratch it & it’ll make a sound that’ll hurt your ears.
There is almost always a game of tag going on amongst the kids in this store.
I’ve seen full grown children, at least 6 years old, being pushed around in carts ’cause they are too lazy to walk. Another child dropped her sweet bread and her father picked it up & gave it back to her. The last time I was there I saw a kid in a cart playing a video game & his sister laying on the bottom rack where you’d place your water bottles. I didn’t think kids fit down there!
Props to the mothers that push 2 – 4 kids in a cart with one hand and pull a cart full of groceries with their other hand.
They don’t offer samples as Costco & Sam’s Club do, but without a doubt you’ll see people eating before they check out… & if you don’t see them some will leave their trash behind.
The lines will drive you crazy! No matter how many registers are open the lines move extremely slow.

During my only visit to this store, there was a pervasively rancid smell emanating from the produce section. They also had some unclean floors and rubbery vegetables — quite befitting of their prices, which are pretty good for some items. I still have not built up a desire to return.

This El Super is the CLEANEST and most ORGANIZED one I have been to YET!!! Other than that … of course they have the cheapest and freshest produce.

Well, for somebody who is looking for cheap fruit and vegies it’s great place, otherwise I woudln’t go there. I had a bad experience with «fresh» meat here, so no more trying! 2 stars for cheap prices and cooked food.

El Super first appeared to me as one of those supermarkets where the prices seem too good to be true in their flyers and you have to join the club to take advantage of their deals. Four lbs of gren limes for $ 0.99?! And red seedless grapes for $ 0.67/lb?! WOW! Now that’s what I call a deal!
I went inside this supermarket to check it out for myself. I have to admit, it’s catered to the Latino population in the area and sort of looks like a warehouse on the inside. But the fruits and vegetables were a great deal as advertised, and they had plenty of fresh produce to choose from. Best of all, the prices are bargain basement. You don’t need a club card for discount! You can buy healthy foods in bulk and less impact on your wallet.
Thus, if I lived in L.A. on a tight budget and wanted to eat fresh produce, El Super would be the place to go. My only gripe here is that the shopping carts aren’t as clean as a regular supermarket, but it’s minor compared to the deals.
