Mexican grocery store?

Submitted by DriveInVolta t3_yrd5bx in providence

Hi folks, where can I find the best Mexican grocery store? I'm throwing a party and need some basic Mexican staples: tomatillos, fresh tortillas, dried chiles, oaxacan string cheese, etc. Any help is appreciated!

La Mexicana is the best bet for fresh tortillas, I think.

Casa Mexico says they have them but don't in my experience. Not sure about La Poblanita.

Sure, but you can find all the staples the OP needs except for fresh tortillas. Heck, sometimes you can even find those in Dominican-run stores.

Chalkstone is excellent. Fantastic little meat market in the back there, too.
