Numero Uno Markets

My favorite grocery store. Staff is always nice and helpful. Prices are always pleasant. Been shopping here for 3 years, no problems so far.
I definitely recommend this store to everyone.

This place is very full and sells a wide variety of authentic Mexicano and gringo goods. I got the fajita prepped chicken and loved the quality of meat when I got back to my place and cooked it up.
The locals all know this as the spot to get quality ingredients at a low price.
Even the staff was helpful with this gringo!

I give this store 4 stars because I really like this friendly neighborhood market not only is the customer service great but they even let you walk off with there shopping carts which I see all over San Pedro. So they lose a star for that!

They have the Guava Jarritos in the refrigerated section. It’s 69 cents a bottle. Come on, what else do you want?

Fruit and veggies are discussing. I’ve been in here several times and each time produce has abundance of flies, knats, and the opposite of fresh. Watch out for the bread being expired. The women employees not welcoming, however the men in the meat department are good.
«George Torres, 52, owner of Numbero Uno in 2009 was guilty of 55 felony counts, including racketeering, „honest services“ mail fraud and wire fraud, conspiring to harbor illegal aliens, and a host of tax charges. The jury determined that Torres solicited the February 1994 murder of a gang member who demanded a „tax“ from a Numero Uno Market.»

It’s soooo much better if you in the morning on the weekend though. Personally I feel like there are more specials and hey, you don’t have to make that big of a line. Usually I go from 8 – 10 that’s a good time to go.
Also, you don’t wait at all In order to get meat and its freshly cut.
The employees are so helpful as well as it should be. It’s really clean that’s a A+ for me.

Store is okay, not the cleanest but it’s okay. They are cheap too. However I do not like that they often have random cut of meat mixed in with my order – and Al Pastor can sometimes be too salty. However, the staff here are very friendly (except the meat department who are often rude).

You can choose various meats pre-​marinated. They’re thinly sliced or not too bulky which quickens the cook time. All you need is 3 tosses. A quick toss on the grill, a toss of tequila down your throat, and toss the cooked meat on a tortilla and repeat!

Número Uno is good for getting some last minute ingredients (dry) or a Coke or Pepsi product from Mexico for $ 1 (that’s what the extra star is for). For my lack of choices of markets like this, except for venturing all the way to Wilmingtonton for Northgate Market (my preferred choice) I am often stuck with this place. The workers are rude, and unless I pop off a little Spanish, I am barely acknowledged. The fruit is often no good, and too many times have I seen flies in the meat display racks. As I stated previously, last minute dry goods and Mexican Cola products are the reasons I come here and will continue to come, unless something else better comes closer.

Numero Uno market is a mid size produce market.
I really like to do my shopping here for fresh veggies, meats & fruits because they tend to be very budget friendly. They also have a local ad every week that arrives in your mail box, you ca see the weeks super specials!
Parking is provided & if you dont have transportation they have a big grey van that will deliver you & your grocery’s to your house. (you must spend a minimum of 30)
AVOID during rush hour times cause it gets as packed as packed gets then you see people scrap’n for a parking spot. A good time to come is in the morning, the store is empty with plenty of parking spaces to choose from.
Dont be shy to stop by if you just see a bunch of latinos theyre friendly plus like i said you can get some good deals if your BBQ’n this weekend.

I enjoying shopping at Numero Uno Market the staff is friendly and work hard at providing quality customer service. I just wish the markets management would set up a phone number where customers could call! The number I have called 310−519−8308 is a wireless phone number that is never answered. It just rings and says that the wireless customer that I am trying to reach is not available??? Customers need a store phone number at least this customer does.

Crummy parking and dubious «fresh» meats & seafood.

The store is clean and well stocked with Mexican groceries. My kids used to frequent Numero Uno’s when they lived across the street and through the alley. I assumed, incorrectly, that I could stop in and pick up a bag of chips to add to our lunch and maybe some flavored teas. Although there were chips the only recognizable chips were by Frito Lay so my choices were limited. Drinks were mostly Mexican sodas and a small sampling of Sobe and fruity Snapple drinks.
I was trying to avoid stopping at Von’s and ended up with no tea and a bag of Frito’s that by the way took 3 people to figure out the pricing when I remarked they were advertised on a sign as 2 for $ 5.00. Oh well!

This store was okay, decent selection however the rancho already marinated meat was kind of blahhh. But they did make up for it by having my favorite peanuts that I usually have to bring back from Mexico!

Go here only if you are in a bind and need some basic things. Produce isn’t all that fresh and the selection is limited.

This is a good spot for prices, most everything is always at a good price, sometimes you dont get the best quality, but ya. Ive gotten meat from there a few times and sometimes its great and sometimes its very below par. Its great for small trips, but if your white be prepared for VERY rude service from the staff there in general.

From the exterior, this place looks like one of those 99 cents and under stores. Don’t be fooled by the tacky choice of paint… this market houses some good ish. If you’re a fan of grilling, head back to the meat counter and get some pre-​marinated cuts of whatever they have to offer that day. It’s your one stop shop for everything mexican. The only thing missing from this authentic market is the herd of roosters roaming around in the parking lot.

They have the best prices in town by far. It is clean and we buy all of our produce here. Fast check out and sometimes they even unload for you without asking. You seriously get twice for your money compared to Von’s. It is small so they don’t have everything but they have items like sopas and Mexican bread that others don’t carry.

This is one of the nicer Mexican grocery stores I’ve been to. The specialty items are the real finds here.
Try the marinated meats in the butcher section. Yum!

Pretty simple mid-​sized Mexican grocery store w/​lots of goodies from south of the border. More like a small Mexican Ralphs/​Vons than a carneceria or fruteria. It’s got all the normal grocery products, except they’re from Mexico. San Pedro has a large Latin population and I tend to be the only guero every time I go, but it’s a good opportunity to practice mi espanol. They all speak English anyway, but I think they appreciate the effort.
Excellent meat counter and this is usually where I come for my BBQing! I love their marinated meats! The al pastor is fabulous as is the carne adobado (pork steaks) and pollo asada.
I can pick up all the necessities for a good BBQ here in one stop, including beer and ice. Nice.
The produce section is filled w/​tons of great looking fruits and veggies that are always fresh and clean. Actually this is probably one of the cleanest and well kept stores I’ve ever been to and has excellent prices to boot.
