First of all, this market is the best in town . People are so friendly and they help you a lot . The prices are better than other markets . They treat everyone as family and don’t forget to buy Turkish products

First impressions are very good. Great varieties of Mediterranean food. Real feta cheese and a great source for lamb and goat. Very friendly and helpful staff. Will be a regular there.

Amazing store for halal grocery. Has every international brand.

These guys are the real deal. They have just about anything you can want and they are super cool.

I have bought halal chicken and beef and other traditional foods from them on multiple occasions. Some items dont have any price tags, which can be a problem sometimes.

Great service and best place for halal meat.

If you wanna tast fresh food go there I was searching food so one of my friend Sulaymzakrya show me this storeThank you

Hes great, very friendly seller and good prices

I like nice people. These are nice people and they have great selection of multi-cultural, international, and specialty products that cant be found anywhere else in a 50 mile radius. Grand Market Rocks 🤘

Very friendly, lots of amazing spices and foods to try.

Its really awesome.

Cool little shop for unique and specialty items. I went in here mostly for their selection of teas that are available, but was surprised at the amount of items available. It had a lot of middle eastern spices and foods that arent available other places. Would definitely recommend looking and experiencing just because.

Good people. Always helpful. Halal and hard to find items at reasonable prices

They do not treat their own country people good as foreigns. I heard this a couple of times from my friends, now I am experiencing.

This is a great market for International food. So many spices, olives, and a selection of really tasting olive oil from Mediterranean area. Prices are good. The service is also good. Great customer service. No problem with the parking. Pleanty of parking in front of the market.

The gentlemen that work here are wonderful. Very friendly and helpful. They usually always have tea or coffee to sip on while browsing the shelves, which are packed with wonderful ingredients and items I am unable to get anywhere else in Charlottesville. The prices are good too. Bulk olives to marinate at home, dried bulk snacks, a large selection of oils, vinegars, and syrups in a variety of flavors and origins. I love this store.

I love this market! They have items I cannot get anywhere else in town, like pomegranate molasses, Syrian bread, Aivar and a wide variety of spices and herbs, all at great prices. This is a family owned small business, run by gracious, friendly people.

Great to be able to get Middle Eastern groceries right in town, and the staff are always very helpful.

I recently was in this grocery store to find some healthy food. Wayne and Saheed were super nice. They helped my friends and me find what we were looking for among the myriad of offerings. I even sampled some great foods. Hit them up.

Nice and friendly people with good meat and mid eastern food options. I hope they can get bigger and bring in more fresh meat options.

Great meats and all kinds of bulk nuts and dried fruits! Very knowledgeable and friendly family

Probably this is the only store in Charlottesville where you can buy halal meat. I bought chicken and beef once from this store. I was not happy with the quality, therefore, stopped purchasing. They have frozen samosa, kababa etc which are halal. You would also find a wide variety of spices in this store. Before purchasing, remember to check the expiration date of the products. Once I went there to buy some spices and found all of those were expired.

I didnt explore very much, I was there for something very specific, which the super friendly staff helped me find very quickly! The cashier was kind, helpful, and gave me a little background on the traditional uses of the item I was getting. I hope I can go back sometime soon!

Its great place to buy persian grocery and Kaleh Pacheh and lamb

Amazing shop! Really helpful and friendly staff, with a full complement of Turkish, Middle East and Near Eastern groceries. Try the pomegranate syrup for salad dressing!! 😀

I bought some lamb there today. It was perfect. Best quality lamb in Charlottesville.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Good selection of middle eastern products. Try the fresh bread.

Very friendly service, and the pita was the best store-bought pita I have tasted thus far. Quaint in size but with a tempting selection of a variety of items.

Excellent selection. We always find something.

My favorite international food store in Charlottesville VA with the healthiest international food options and competitive prices. They always have what I need.

This place is wonderful. They recently started serving hot dishes - the naan bread is the best in Cville. We are so lucky to have such a fantastic place to shop and and eat in our little town!

I get my gourmet quality G.O.R.P. there for around $7/lb while supporting a friendly neighborhood business. Compare that to a plactacine bag of mostly cheap candy @ $4 or $5 2oz from Wally World.

Great people and nice service there, first time walk you will be a friend :).

Very good staff and friendly helpful love the guys who are working they are awesome

Not only Afghani but you can also find any kind of Middle Eastern food, I enjoy going there!!!

The people there are so nice and their prices are very competitive with the big box stores - definitely give them a chance and stop in!

Absolutely delicious and as authentic as one can hope for in central virginia.

Everyone is so nice and polite and very helpful!

My Dad and I had been searching for GOOD falafel in Charlottesville, or even in Virginia,I have to say that the falafel from here is THE BEST FALAFEL we have ever had. Hands down, just amazing. If you like falafel this is the place to go, dont even bother trying anywhere else.
