I've been coming to this place since it opened to get carne and polo to bbq since they pre season and prepare it, when it first opened it was pretty good, not the best I've had in my life but definitely good enough to spend money on and come back for, slowly over the years they have diminished in freshness and flavor. This last visit however, was completely unacceptable. The chicken was freaking rotten, literally smelled rotten and the chicken wasn't even pink anymore it was discolored grey in spots and smelled funny. Lord forgive me for not checking the raw meat before I cooked it. I picked up a funny but faint scent when I first opened the chicken to bbq but just threw it all on the grill and chalked it up to my imagination, it was dark so nobody really noticed until we started eating. A few pieces had bits of funny taste here and there, I'm not saying the whole batch was bad, but there was definitely noticeably rotten chicken in there. I happened to have 3 pieces left of the 6 pounds we bought, and upon close inspection the chicken was freaking grey in spots and had a strong smell. Needless to say this was the last chance I give to la famosa, they've sold me borderline food before but it's never been ROTTEN, it's had minor off smells before but it's never been completely rotten like today. This isn't carne or polo I'd take for free to...
Read moreThis place claims to have pizza that you can call ahead and order and it's ready for pickup in 20 minutes. Not true. They have very few parking spaces. There are gross old men loitering by the door smoking. No shopping carts. Grocery items are overpriced and expired. Produce looks like it came from a dumpster, bruised and wilted and well past it's prime. I went to pick up my pre-ordered pizzas after 25 minutes. The rude old bleached blonde named Carmen just walked away. She finally came back after her young coworkers had to yell over and over to get her attention. Then she rudely informed me that it would be another 25 minutes and walked away again. She had not even started on them and clearly had no intention of doing so. The prepared food in the trays looked old and overcooked and dried up and disgusting. Nobody apologized for the horrible service as I left empty handed. The whole experience was like a bad trip to a third world country. Forget about this place if you care anything about freshness and quality. Or pizza. We probably would have gotten food poisoning anyway, so thanks Carmen. You are rude and nasty and should be fired....
Read moreMeat is pretty good and about the only thing worth going for. Most prices aren't shown so there's always a surprise at the register. The had a sign for 4 avocados for $1 under two boxes of avocados, so I grabbed the 4. Most of the avocados were damaged but I thought it was still a good deal. I go to pay and find out they are closer to $8, the price displayed was only for 1 of the boxes. If you come here instead of staters looking for deals, you probably aren't going to get them anyway and produce is going to be of...
