What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors rave about the Mercado de Los Boliches for its exceptional quality and friendly service, particularly highlighting the fresh fish and prime meats. While most experiences are positive, a few instances of less-than-perfect produce have been noted, suggesting a quick check before purchase is advisable.
"Usually good.
However, my mum in law went in for a few items, and asked for 2 tomatoes.
He added 2 tomatoes to her bag, charged her and she paid, not realizing until home how rotted one on the bottom was.
Horrible move, and probably assumed she wasn't local."
