Claro's Italian Market

**4.4/5 🌟🌟🌟🌟✨ Claro's Italian Markets San Gabriel: Bakery Bliss with a Floral Flourish** Wandering into **Claro's Italian Markets** on Valley Blvd in San Gabriel feels like stumbling into Nonna's secret garden—vibrant, aromatic, and brimming with temptations that hit all the senses 🌸🍞. This family-run staple since '48 isn't just a market; it's a love letter to Italy, with a bakery section that's the undisputed heart. The air hums with yeast and citrus zest, and tucked alongside the pastries? A charming little floral nook blooming with fresh imports—rosemary bundles, edible flowers for garnishing tiramisu, and vibrant bouquets that scream "bring this home for dinner" 💐. The **bakery** steals the show: crusty ciabatta loaves ($4.50) still warm from the oven, perfect for sopping up olive oi

I went to this location just to get some dinner (pre-made sandwiches). Got the small size which was $10.48. Arrived close to 5pm and there was only one other customer. I had never seen it so quiet. But I liked it! Enjoyed the sandwich for dinner. Next time I'll be ordering a custom one for the b.f. I like Claro's alot! The products are all good and the pre-made sausages and foods never disappoint!!!

We happened upon this Claro’s by accident, and it was a pleasant surprise. My sister always gets the Auntie Mary, and I love Uncle Bob custom sandwiches. My son chose Angry Joe. The meats and cheeses are great. Service was pleasant and friendly. The deli area was clean. All orders are for takeaway only. We got a free nougat candy for Mother’s day from the sweet lady at the cashier counter.

Claro's has been been one of my go to place for deli meat and sandwiches. What sandwich I orderer, I make sure to ask them to use the "crunchy bread" instead of the softer alternative. It really makes s difference. This time around, I decide to buy all the deli meats and make my own sandwich. It was great

It's been years since I've been back. So... the 1st thing i noticed is that they have gotten pricey over the years, but EVERYONE else has too. But WELL WELL worth it. The sandwhiches are still among the best. Fresh and frozen meals are excellent! Dozens and dozens of hard to find Italian food products everywhere. Their cookies are top-notch. The atmosphere is great. Their proper customer service was refreshing. If you haven't been, I highly suggest you go to Claro's on Valley. It's still a gem that survived the SGV many changes over the years. Glad I came back.
