El Super

El Super offers a lot of what hispanic customers are looking for, low prices, but it also gives us the worse possible quality in produce and all perishable items. If you want to buy pre packaged goods at a low price then it’s great or if you want to buy only what you need then it’s ok. There are liquor stores with better produce than this. The cashiers and people working there are also a bit unprofessional. They get a 3 star rating. Why is it our own people take advantage of us.

This store is awful! Long lines with cashiers that don’t know how to do their job. Bad produce that rots the next day! Also got food poisoning from the bakery department. I hope they close this store and put a real market like Stater bros, Albertson’s or Vons!

We really miss RALPHS. El super low quality market. Don’t understand City of Pico Rivera Why allowing low quality stores. Should learn from Downey. Beautiful Malls, shopping centers, high end restaurants, and Gangs out of Downey!

I’m not really happy with the change from Ralph’s to El Super. I mainly go to el super for the Mexican/​Central America cheeses and creams and bolillos. A lot of the produce is old or wilted down. Most of the things they sell are very basic. Like for example, I wanted to buy canned crushed tomatoes and they only sell tomato sauce and whole tomatoes and that’s it. They don’t even have diced tomatoes. The same for canned beans. Only pinto or black no other kind. They have basic selection of chips no baked or kettle chips. I feel that this store was put here because the neighborhoods are predominantly Latinos. How stereotypical to put a store for that reason. The cashiers are courteous. But that’s about it.

I hate this place, hate is passionate word so from that you can understand how I feel. I keep trying to make it work but I honestly don’t like the quality, we bought meat from there and it tasted rancid that I’m scared to ever purchase any type of meat again. I prefer to drive through so much traffic and get to either northgate or Ralph’s in Downey, yes I will rather travel then go down the street to this place. I’m so mad we have downgraded to this type of store, this is not east LA we a new generation that prefers better quality then price, this was a terrible idea and Pico Rivera should have put there foot in this one. Now we are stuck with bad quality food. I wish Unilocal had a negative star to give.

I write this review keeping mi gente in mind. I don’t know what is going on here but the energy in this store is completely off. I like the fact that the store is employing those hardworking people who want to work but the traffic when I went just wasn’t there. I loved the Ralphs that was there before. So I went with my daughter and mother. We liked the fact that it is clean and we’ll stocked but it lacks organic food. All the produce is non organic, they didn’t even carry Horizon milk. My 1 year old was impressed by the piñatas sitting on top of the ice cream aisle. We bought some sweet bread the one that is shaped like a u and has sesame seeds on top. Later on I sat down with a glass of milk to enjoy my pan dulce when I instantly spit out the bread. The pan dulce taste old, it was some old frickin bread. I was so disgusted that I called to put put a complain about this because this is not right, how did they think they could get away with deceiving customers? Well you didn’t fool me El Super, I am so turned off by this unsanitary practice of restocking old bread. Oh and I think I saw some people outside with some signs I didn’t get to see what they were holding but now I’m wondering if it has to do with the store. If this store wants to make an impression it should cater to the community, we want organic fruits and vegetables, there’s no way I’ll feed my daughter produce that not only affects us humans but it is also possibly affecting bees. Yes people bees, the unsung hero who pollinates about 40% of the fruit and vegetables and nuts (i.e almonds) that we stuff into our faces. Bees are being manipulated to keep pollinating even when they should be doing whatever the hell bees do when they’re in their hives. They drive them or ship them across the pond to pollinate crops here in the states because we have managed to fuck up the bees to the point that they are disappearing and leaving the genetically modified queen bee who gets instrumental inseminated which is totally unfair to the drones *male bees* the queen bee is unable to go into flight having the drones mate with her and letting mother nature take her course because humans don’t like swarms. Toughen up people, we need to understand that nature is complex and beautiful and we should NOT fuck with it! Buy organic foods people is better for you and mother nature, especially bees. I know it can be a bit too much on our pockets but if we bought organic foods the other companies would feel the pressure to become organic too! If we all bought clean Monsanto would be out of business and we would be a healthier nation. Also keep in mind the hands that care for those crops sprayed with pesticides, immigrant workers are so unfairly paid and exposed to these poisons. Bottom line this place is wrong and I hope they get organic food in there, clean stuff and treat the employees with dignity so they won’t feel the need to not give a fuck and leave stale old bread. El Super treat your employees right! I won’t go back until I see better treatment to employees and organic food that doesn’t exploit the bees. I’m out.

This store deserves less than one star. It was my first time there today clean market, HORRIBLE service! I got the cashier named Christian, horrible attitude, looks like he hates his job. Im never comingback here if he still working there.

Sad replacement of Ralph’s. I was told this place was no good but I wanted to try it myself. The fruits and vegetables were old looking. Nothing looked fresh. The selection throughout the store was extremely limited. Great if you only are interested in Mexican items, but not so much if you’re looking for a store like Ralph’s selection.
I will be driving farther to the Ralph’s in Downey instead of going here which is in my neighborhood.

I really wanted to give this store 5 stars but they just closed the door 3mins before 10pm i just need to get one item which I’m sure wasn’t going to take long considering it’s closing time but the door was closed 3mins before the time now i have to take a longer drive to food 4 less. They just loss a customer.

Extremely disappointed! I tried to remain hopeful, but after giving the store a thorough walk through I left feeling like our community deserves better than this!!! Especially after having Ralph’s, this is a huge down grade.
After only being open for a couple of weeks the store already appears unkept and dirty. The floor of the fruit and veggie section is dirty and zero organic produce is offered. As a matter of fact, the store does not offer any type of organic option of any kind in any department of he store. I still need to go to Ralph’s in order to have a healthy food option for my family. El Super doesn’t even sell Hebrew National hot dogs or any sandwich meet selection that doesn’t have artificial ingredients. I also tried the prepared food and ended up throwing it away. I have tried prepared food from the kitchen at Vallarta and North Gate and both are much better in comparison.
I am so sad that after having such an exceptional store in our area this is what we are now being presented with.

This place sucks I went there today excited to see the replacement for ralphs but I wasn’t impressed. I started off on the fruits and vegetables, nothing was stacked together in a presentable manner everything looked like it was thrown on there. Also all the fruits in vegetables looked as if they were growing is someone’s backyard none of them looked appealing to eat it all looked old already. they’re selection in other items throughout the store were very basic they didn’t have a variety of things to choose from… it wasn’t until I got to the meat dept. Where I decided just to leave everything there and leave… the odor was awful the meat didn’t look fresh and I overheard a couple saying the same thing while overlooking the meat through the glass…
Overall bad experience I’m on my way to Vallarta market off of whittier blvd, everybody go there for a Mexican supermarket it’s much more presentable and cleaner

This store opened tonight.
The employees were very friendly tonight. I feel the employees at El Super deserve everything they are striving for.
As far as the groceries, the fruit is really cheap, especially the oranges. They have plenty of cactus, which many in my family love. The place is new and clean, very spacious design. The parking lot is pretty much the same as the Ralphs that was once here.
