El Zorro Market: Reviews & Ratings
Great selection at extremely reasonable prices. The staff is very helpful for us non-spanish speakers. I definitely will be returning.
I'm a Puerto Rican from New Jersey. You can find Puerto Ricans and Puerto Rican markets by the butt load in NJ. LA, however? Not so much. Imagine my disappointment when I moved to LA and realized that 1) I can't find any other Puerto Ricans 2) Where can a girl get some green plantains and her goya products?! Well, Zorro has all of that! I didn't find this place until a couple of years ago, but it has been a key market when it comes to my typical Puerto Rican dishes. Since my move to LA, I was able to find the Mexican markets like Northgate and El Super that have SOME of the things I need, but El Zorro has it all. In order to make tostones, you need GREEN Plantains. Those are a rarity in the Mexican markets because Caribbean people are really the only ones that use the green plantains. You can find ripe plantains in a mountain, but green plantains, not so much. Zorro's got you covered. How about my east coasters who are used to the big avocados and not the small California ones? El Zorro's got you covered. Hey, Puerto Ricans, remember Coco Rico? A delicious coconut flavored soda made in Puerto Rico? El Zorro's got you covered. Plantain chips, yuca, goya galore, everything you need to make your pastelon, arroz con gandules and whatever else you need. You can also find whatever you may want from a typical Mexican/Central American market as well. There's a little something for everyone here. Parking lot is small, but I've always managed to find parking. Market is also small, but it's got everything I need!
