As others have said, great selection of goods. A tad pricey (for example, a drink that is $2 at Von's will be $4 here.)
Re: the staff working there—I can't tell if they were genuinely nice or passive aggressive (leaned towards latter given we are in LA...).
She initially said "let me know if I can answer any questions" which is normal & expected. But once we started browsing more areas of the store she asked twice "anything particular you're looking for?" but did not sound genuine.
It felt more like "can you hurry up?" or "are you actually gonna buy anything?" It felt so much so that that I double-checked the time on my phone, and as I remembered, Google Maps showed an 8pm closing time & it was well before that.

In addition to their great food and drinks, this small boutique market also has a wide selection of beer, wine, and snacks. This makes it the perfect place to stop by for a quick bite to eat or to pick up a few items for a picnic...
