Market On Broadway IGA

I really do love this store! They have all the basics you would need, such as milk and bread, but it is definitely a Latin American/​Mexican store. I love culture and this store definitely brings it! I for one have never seen so many different types of beans in my life! The cheese selections are wonderful, they have a good variety of deli meat, every type of fresh bell, sweet and hot pepper, and piñatas all over the ceiling of the store! I have been here a few times and coming back every chance I can! The employees are always nice and the store is a lot nicer then I was expecting the first time I came. I am happy with it for sure and am looking forward to discovering more here! :)

With Las Palmas Carniceria’s takeover of IGA has come nothing but vibrant things. This IGA now sells all manner of Latin groceries including, meats, spices, confections, and odd fruits one doesn’t often see in area supermarkets. It appears that most of the employees have been retained along with a bunch of new, happy faces.
That taco cart still broils and attracts the hungry outside near the parking lot while another stand in front of the automatic door peddles soups, tamales, coffee, and some other things I’m not familiar with (see Becca R’s review).
Regardless, this new development has been a very positive one.
And they continue to stock all the same old stuff, including my Isaly’s chipped ham.
Shame on them for no longer carrying Schneider’s, though. Instead, they are now selling a brand I can do without and forget the name of, BUT, they have Jarritos soda, which is becoming my new compulsion, particularly the tamarind flavor. Great Scott! It tastes just like Schneider’s with fizz!

This place got way better when it became Las Palmas. At the front of the store, there’s a little stand where they sell hot, cheap treats like a Latino fonda sells (I recently got a vegetarian tamale and cinnamon flavored coffee there and they were super good). I have also made it a point to try each sour cream flavor they sell there, as they have a huge section devoted to sour cream, including flavors from different countries like El Salvador and Mexico. Who knew there were country-​specific sour creams?!
Their produce section improved vastly when the Las Palmas guys took over. They sell latino specialties, like yuca, prickly pear, nance, and young coconut, along with several varieties of dried peppers.
Their butcher section is awesome too; they have all kinds of specialty meats, fresh chicharron, and you can buy queso blanco by the pound.
I have never seen the variety of beans that this place has, either. Literally, almost an entire row devoted to canned and dried beans! Being a vegetarian, I was extremely pleased to discover this.
Go to here! You will love it (unless you only buy frozen stuff, in which case you may be bummed).

As you may know, the people who own Las Palmas took this over. It will still be an IGA but with a Mexican flair and the Las Palmas location doors away will close. The tacos will be sold outside the IGA now near their free and big parking lot.
As for the tacos, I liked their pulled pork and chorizo ones best. The ground beef tacos are gummy and gristly and unseasoned and the steak and onions ones aren’t bad. They double up each taco with corn tortillas.

Sadly really went downhill. They switched to a new vendor, the prices went up and they are no longer having sales.

It’s an IGA now.
