Ava's Downtown Market & Deli 340 Castro Street, Mountain View, CA 94041

"Good selection for a small store, including fresh food, beer and wine, snacks. Staff was very helpful. Convenient to have this downtown."

"Amazing to have a local grocery store like this within walking distance. We can do most of our everyday grocery shopping here. They also have great local artisan and international foods alongside all the essentials. And they were so nice to start carrying my favorite soy milk when I asked the owner :)"

"This grocery store is very cozy. So many delightful niche options for cheese and pasta, a great selection of wines and milk (which is how I discovered this place, they stock A2 Milk!). They also have reasonably priced flowers, plants and succulents, what a bonus!"

"I wish I could give half-stars -- consider this a 4.5-star review -- this is a great community market with a cozy atmosphere, kind and friendly staff, and a selection of product in stock that excels in categories like produce, cooking ingredients, and dairy (I love me some cheese!) but, depending on your needs, you may not be able to find what you're looking for in some cases. Supporting a local small business is well worth it, though. Excellent selection of drinks as well; not necessarily alcohol, but for those who enjoy beer or wine, I'm sure you'll be satisfied too."

"What a sweet little neighborhood market tweaking itself into a viable store. The flower and plant section is growing and blooming. The fresh baguettes and bakery items from local vendors is a reason to make a quick stop. Wine, sweets, organic produce, and many convenience items can be found here. And then, there's the poke bar to grab to-go food! Please support your local family grocery store!"
