In 1961, our father Arturo Ruiz took a chance on his dream. He came to the United States on a work permit in search of his American dream of establishing his family in this great country. After years of hard work, saving, and preparation, he accomplished his goal.

His first restaurant/market was opened in the city of Van Nuys in 1982. With our mother, Maria, at this side, our family grew, and the business flourished.
