Vallarta is almost always clean and well-stocked with a variety of items. The produce is always reasonably-priced and usually of good quality. I frequently buy tomatoes, scallions, jicama, different pepper varieties and potatoes here. I've had excellent shrimp ceviche from their deli. My experience with their meats is spotty (carne asada with good flavor but too much gristle & connective tissue). I peruse the Tuesday grocery ads each week and respond to Vallarta's ad items occasionally. Today, Wednesday, I went there for 3 ad items. Only 1 was in stock. The staff are always nice and usually helpful (sometimes I get the brush-off, I think for asking a question in English). With some better supervision, this could be my main market (but, since it's been open 7 years, I'm not holding my breath).

This supermarket has everything & off the 99. When I'm craving authentic Mexican food, I just come here, grab a bit for lunch, there's seating. Everything a Mexican restaurant can offer, they have it here, some food are made fresh, some are sitting under hot lights. I enjoy their turkey torta sandwiches. There's a variety of salsa options. The hot food really makes this my favorite supermarket. Ifyou're not Mexican, you might feel out of place with people staring. The only down side, is there only one cashier the last two times I was here.

Best chips ever. The ones they make. They were expensive but very very good. Also we love the fresh salsa and desserts at the Bakery.

I was a assulted and viciously pepper sprayed in the back all because when this plain clothed man approached me while I was walking out after getting a few grocery items. I didn't fully understand what he was implying or why he kept saying "I just want stuff back." I thought did I accidentally take this man's groceries? How would that even be possibly? I kept asking him to explain to me what stuff? All of a sudden something in this man snapped. He started cursing at me, yelling profanities and getting into my face saying I have an attitude. I start to realize this man is some kind of undercover security? I start to say to him sir, why are you so angry? Sir, I'm trying to cooperate with you, and I am willing to do whatever is needed for this to be resolved. Sir, you need to back away from me and stop yelling at me, you're making me uncomfortable. The man is getting more and more enraged and mad. A small crowd of people start to watch, I remember seeing these too men start to come over to try and help me, but this man pulls out his pepper spray and starts to wave it up and down, like he was gonna use it. On me? On other customers? Why? This man is out of his mind. Im starting to get more and more anxious. He keeps yelling profanities at me saying over and over "I just want my stuff back." Making me even more confused. Then out of nowhere after I said "call the police, I will wait here for them so we can get this resolved." He lunged at me and forcibly grabbed my arm with my purse and yanking me towards the revolving door so hard that my purse completely snapped, breaking both straps, and throwing me backwards onto the ground as my now broken purse and I fall to the ground I think to myself "so where is all this supposed stolen items of his stuff?" Wouldn't all this "stuff" be falling out during this assult? He used enough force to break my purse and make me fall to the ground, my wallet and my vape were in there! I wasn't going to let him take that! At this point I am shaking, crying, and asking him "why are you doing this to me? The 2 men I saw earlier were still there and they kept trying to stop this man from.hurting me. I remember them saying to.him "bro, stop! Bro that's not right " and looking at me with such remorse. They couldn't do anything without possible getting pepper sprayed. I get up from the ground, shaking he is cornering me, pacing back and fourth hovering me and getting into my face and waving his pepperspray. I just wanted to get away from this obviously disturbed man with a God complex who hates woman who have a voice and who stand up for their rights. My shopping kart with Mt groceries got in-between us, and I see an exit, I take it, with only seconds to react, the police were taking too long, and I was scared of what this man would do to me next. I run leaving my groceries behind. At this point im only thinking "get as fR away from him as possible, then call 911. But withoit hesitation he then peppersprays me in the back of my head. I don't realize how badly he got me. That means he was running after me. I can see my fiancé car and all I want to do is get there and get safe. This man was capable of anything at this point. Then, it starts. The most agonizing, excruciating , unbearable pain. I.cant even remember every feeling this much pain. What I now realize when I was running away from hi, he unleashed a massive amount of pepper spray onto the back of the head all over my hair, which was in a long ponytail. All it took was for my hair to.sqep.across my face. I never ever yelled at this man, nor scream profanities, i.didnt call.him names, I didn't threaten him, put him down, act inappropriate or uncooperative. And no, I did not steal anything nor take any of his 'stuff." My only crime was allegedly taking cat food cans. Lol yes 89 cent cat food cans. And that they "saw me in the cat food isle on video acting suspicious." Okay so Valarta has barley any cat supplie

I made the worst mistake by ordering my son's birthday cake from this bakery. I didn't get the exact cake as the one from the picture. But instead I got a pink and purple cake. Horrible experience... no customer service, poor quality, terrible baker. And don't bother to make a complaint because the store manager won't call you back. Do your self a favor and stay way from the bakery. I don't recommend this place at all.

This market has a copious amount of merchandise in a festive environment. On top of lots of staples there is an above average amount of fresh food preparation on site. This day we ordered a full roasted chicken, rice, and beans. The customer service was friendly. I saw some negative reviews and they seem what can happen when you have a lot of freshly prepped foods. So I do recommend you in advance, inspect your items before purchase. My local cousins depend on the fresh produce and variety of selection of items at this location on a regular basis. So based on my experience and my families we recommend this place as an excellent place to get tasty foods!

Went here recently just to have lunch. Like so many places, I tried things I'd gladly get again, and others I'd happily skip. Ordering was easy and pleasant, though it seemed to take quite a long time for the food to be ready. They failed to give me salsa, so I had to back back and ask for it. I tried both the red and the green, and they were both good. I tried asada, chicken, and carnitas tacos, rice and beans, and a chile relleno. The tacos were really good, though the carnitas were pretty dry. Luckily, a dose of salsa solved that. Flavors were good. The rice and beans weren't good at all and the three stale chips they threw in there didn't really help the cause. The chile relleno was tasty, substantial, and topped with a delicious tomato sauce. I'll definitely return for the things I liked as well as some new things.

As a whole I love Vallarta and usually have no problem with this location but I think they may have a new kitchen manager because the last two times I've gotten Chicharrones moruzas, they have been cooked too long and tasted burnt, and this time they also tasted old. I had to throw the whole lot out because the taste of old grease was terrible.

Sad to say the first time buying albondigas from here and it was terrible. The vegetables weren't cooked all the way along with the meat. Please don't do the same mistake I did and check your food before leaving :(

This is my local vallarta. They are always stocked and clean. I've never encountered a rude cashier or store clerk. I've always gotten fresh food here. The tamales are normally pretty tasty. The hot food to order is always good too. If you're there at the right time you'll be able to get fresh baked bolillo bread.

Can I just say this grocery store is so colorful. Vallarta has so much going on & so many departments where do I start? The produce is fresh & high quality. My favorite part of this store is the meat department. Pork, beef, poultry & seafood are all on deck here. Get some lunch as well. They have a department where the cook food which is pretty good. They have a bakery. Oh yea, they sell grocery's too. (Side bar) the house salsa & guacamole is fire forreal. Ur welcome! Five starz! Check out the pics.

I have been to this store a few times and every time it has been a very pleasant experience. I usually purchase about 200#'s of chicken in one visit, had been buying from WinCo, I asked at WinCo since I purchase such a large amount could I get it in box's weighted and pay for it that way, easier for me to process and carry. WinCo said no, the best the could do was put the containers in a box for me but the cashier would have to take them out and scan them and I would have to put it all back together, what a pain, went to Vallarta and the butcher said sure how much would you like, I said 200#'s he said is 40# box's ok, I said yes, he weighted them gave the cashier the tags, she just scanned the tags I was out the door. These are the nicest and most helpful people around. Thank you to all of them, WinCo, no thanks ever again.

I dont really write reviews, I read reviews. I always do my grocery here and never have any problems, even overcharged. Not until it happened yesterday. I bought three of thier slice cake. I didn't realize until that night I saw each slice was overpriced ($37.99 for 1 slice of tiramisu x3. Reg price was 2.99). So I went the next day to get a price adjustments. Thankfully it wasnt in any hassle to get it right. I saw a lady who works there, told her I was overcharged and right at that moment she knew it wasn't right. She hand it to a male cashier to fix it. The cashier was nice upon handling the issue and got my refund without a problem. I left the store with ease. So thanks for helping resolve the issue. I learn my lesson here to never leave the store without checking the receipt, even if you're a regular customer.
