It's definitely worth checking out, especially for their diverse selection of produce, meat, and shelf-stable items that you wouldn't be able to get at a conventional supermarket. Not only that, but many of their items are surprisingly inexpensive!
As others have stated, there are a few issues - some substandard produce, generally messy atmosphere, and sometimes unsafe location stopped this from being my main supermarket.
Finally, the in-store announcements are accompanied by the catchiest jingle on the face of the earth. If you hear it once, you'll never forget it.

Optimized for making guacamole on the cheap. Fantastically cheap cilantro and fresh herbs.
Missing some stuff (dont appear to have coffee beans, or any non-basic cheeses), but makes up for it in having stuff you've never heard of before if you're not latino/carribean/african.
If you're put off by non-English speakers, this is not the place for you, but then again, neither is most of the planet (all the employees speak English, it just seems like many people's second (or...
