It has been our TOGO place for Argentinian products for years! Very sad for the owners and the employees.... Online shopping is the only way now. :( Hoping somehow someday they can open again
Fiesta latina has been closed down by the city deeming the location to be unsafe to enter. It was one of my favorite latin markets.
Nice service and decent selection of Colombian and Venezuelan treats, like Cocosette, Nucita, Bon bon bum, etc. They also have Argentinian and other Latin American products. Easy to find parking around it.
Excellent store for that hard to get item(s) that you won't find anywhere else. Staff is courteous and friendly.
Best place to pick up Pacific island food on the peninsula.....Polynesian food. They have lu and piñatas!
This is a small market, so do not expect a huge inventory or a large selection of anything. Do not expect low prices either. Fiesta Latina has different products from different countries that are hard to find. From alfajores to Yerba Mate, Mexican treats and Peruvian candies to meat cuts that will make your dinner special. This market is very unique and will surprise you. Every time I shop here I buy new items I have never seen in the past. As a result I have learnt a lot about other countries food and culture. If this is something that gets your attention then you should shop here at least once in your life.
