Ideal Market Kitchen

Great place to get beef tongue! Super authentic Latino market jam-packed with salsas, sauces, produce, and beer...this place has it all! You can even get a plate of hot food, with big portion sizes. The staff is extremely helpful, though not all speak English. If you want some real spices for your Mexican dishes, check out Ideal Market!

Love it here. I can grab lots of Hispanic goodies and fresh, fresh fruit, get a taste of Hispanic/Latin music all while I head home. Hello, cactus ears... I've not seen those ANYWHERE, until now. I stopped in for an ensalada treat, buuuuuutttttt I didn't know the proper name, gotta get better with that; but I was able to get something similar to what I came for. Thanks be to God for my 'johnny on the spot' impromptu translator. Guess he felt sorry for me... I asked for the menu. Tuh. He said, "here's the menu right here" (pointing to the label in front of each food dish in the kitchen... Hello talked about embarrassed, the brown face turned BEET RED, well maybe not, but you get the picture. Everyone I encountered was nice, friendly, considerate & patient (which I need lots of). Like a community of family & friends. I was floored once I stepped in, to hear the Latin music overhead and the bulk of the signage in Spanish... I knew then I'd frequent this place to bone up on my Espanol; just call me The Bilingual Babe!!!! Nos Vemos!!!!
