After many many mannnnnny years and speculation of when Flamingo Supermarket would finally open, they indeed are NOW OPEN!!! They had their Grand Opening in June 2025. And a soft opening a few weeks prior. News got out fast they were opening and people just couldn’t wait. Ha.
Flamingo Supermarket is located in the Embassy Lakes Shopping Center.I finally got to stop in about 1-2 weeks after the Grand Opening to avoid the chaos. They did a lovely job on this new supermarket. It’s so BIG!!! And offers a variety of unique grocery items, fresh prepared foods, bakery, taco bar, smoothie bar, produce, meats, seafood, frozen foods and so much more.
The market is super clean and incredibly organized. Everything I’ve seen so far looks fresh. Customer service is great and the staff here has been very nice. They are constantly doing special giveaways for TV’s, speakers or what not. Once you make a purchase, your receipt prints with a slip to enter the giveaways. Great idea!
During my first visit, I met David who saw me eyeing a fruit I wasn’t sure what it was and came over to tell me more about it. Very nice guy. We were chatting about the opening and how everything was going. Then he introduced me to the Taco Bar by the produce area and asked if I wanted to try something off the menu. I asked to try the beef birria taco so they made me one to test. It was really tasty and fresh! Thanks for the hospitality David.
I got several items during my first visit and have been back a few times. I love strolling around this store to check out what cool items they have. They have an amazing pistachio spread here. Got the Pisti Pistachio spread in 7 oz jar for $10.99 to make Dubai Chocolate. Then I had to go back to get more pistachio spread to make different Dubai Chocolate recipes and ended up snagging the 21 oz jar for $22.99. Triple the size for double the price. Worth it.
If you haven’t been here yet, come check them out. They have very cool stuff. What a great addition to the neighborhood. I hope they are successful in this new opening! I know everyone has been stoked about...
Read moreAfter many, many, many years of waiting, Flamingo supermarket finally had its soft opening yesterday. This is a hopeful/potential 4 but probably should be closer to a 3.5.
Apparently they weren’t expecting to open but it got out in the neighborhood earlier in the week that they were. Official grand opening is/was supposed to be June 26. With that said, all the prepared food stall areas are not yet open (although they might be making fresh tacos today), there are still empty aisles/sections and cold cases, lots of items with no pricing or incorrect pricing, and areas of the floor that definitely might be a trip hazard.
Spoke with one of the owners and they are family run and excited to be in the neighborhood. They are welcome to suggestions and if you are looking for specific items, just ask and they will see if they can get. There is also a separate jeweler inside the store.
As for the store as it currently stands - Pros *Items very organized and clean looking *Produce looks great *Good variety of different ethnic items throughout the aisles *Wide array of meats and fish *Bright store *Can get food, cleaning products, pet food, kitchen items, and car products all in one place
Cons *Many items seem a bit pricey *Be careful with cutouts in the floor *Lot of fresh items that expire within the next 4 days or so (odd if you weren’t expecting to be open) *Running of operation seems disorganized being it’s taken over 3 years to open and even the “opening” seems unplanned and not well communicated with the community.
All that said, I hope they can thrive for longer than it’s taken for them to open....
Read moreTheir customer service is Top notch the manager gave us a bag of bread 🥖 and apologized for a mistake on one of their pricing labels. We were very happy and surprised that he did that for us! Definitely this is our new favorite grocery store Flamingo Supermarket,Beautiful store and very, very clean! Their aisles are very well stocked and very well maintained. I really loved their meat selection and their displays over the seafood section are amazing and I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to buy a great selection of seafood! They also have right at the entrance one spot for smoothies and juices 🥤 fresh and delicious. If walk towards the produce section you will see a Taco mini restaurant right in the middle and I highly recommend this spot for those who love Mexican cuisine and their portions are generous! They also have a raffle going on right now June 2025 and all you need to do is purchase something and after you pay the cashier will give you a ticket to fill up with your info and I hope you win: their raffle items are Stove, fridge, motorcycle and more! They have a huge selection of Spanish favorites items and if you are Latino, I don’t need to describe it in detail because you all know. I highly recommend this gorgeous store to everyone. No more Walmart, this is our new favorite...
