Northgate Market is a well-organized and clean store offering a great variety of authentic Mexican foods and ingredients. It provides an excellent selection of imported and domestic items, including beers, tequilas, dry goods, and a produce section with both usual and exotic fruits. Customers can find a great supply of ready-to-eat food like ceviches, chile rellenos, enchiladas, and various cuts of meat, as well as fresh cheeses, pan dulce, and items from the tortillería. The market also has ready-made salsas, guacamole, and convenient taco kits.
Prices are generally better than most supermarkets. While many find the produce great and everything fresh, some experiences note issues with specific items not being fresh. The ready-made food, including tamales, is typically good but can sometimes be very spicy. It is a great market for everything needed to make Latino dishes, or for those who do not want to cook. The staff is noted as being nice, polite, and friendly. It is considered the place for authentic Mexican comida.
I always appreciate going to a Northgate Market. I was unaware there was one in Long Beach!.... The store was clean, staff was friendly.
