I’ve only been here twice and both times I’ve run into food that was wildly past the sell by date and clearly expired. This is from today (April 3rd, 2021); the best before date on the cheese was nearly 3 months ago. Nothing on your receipt will be named; mine just says “groceries” for a few things. Shady place for sure. Stay away if you value your and your family’s health.
Very good store. They have wide varieties of gifts items and goodies which are awesome. I bought bag from them which was good lookin and durable. 5/5
Great shop with a wide variety of items. Was in a bit of a hurry so I couldnt take it all in. I asked about a specific candy that some Russian friends recommended and the helpful clerk knew exactly what I was looking for. They were fresh, delicious and reasonably priced. So glad I found these locally and didnt have to go through Amazon to get them. Ill definitely be back to try other things.
Huge selection of Russian grocery items. Just be sure to look at the expiration dates before you check out; a few things are expired sometimes. Staff is very friendly and store is not ever crowded even though its small.
Nice store lots of European foods...
Best (and only) shop in the East Bay for Russian and other Eastern European necessities. Frozen stuff, boxed dinners, fresh caviar, пельмени, breads, tons of imported beers and wines, you name it. Its the only place I go to for my Euro needs.
In the East Bay, you are NOT going to find a better Eurasian store than this one. You need to go to San Francisco to find anything comparable. Please keep in mind this is not a fresh foods grocery store, but canned, frozen, and pickled items from Bulgaria, Ukraine, Russia and MORE!!! Do check the expiration date, in the past and rare occurrence i have found items past its due date (ie: ice cream or cream cheese desserts). Like I said it is NOT often, but it happens since it is a long distance delivery to their store.
Almost everything is Russian good variety
The owner knows me as the guy with the tiger eye bracelet. He is so friendly. Very good to customer. I will come by again soon.
Wonderful store run by awesome folks!
Very friendly, and well take care of all your cravings for Eastern European and Slavic foods.
Great Russian deli - they have lots of other stuff too!
I usually dont write reviews unless I find something interesting. Long story short, I am truly amazed to see such a great selection for staple foods here. Further,They have great customer service and the store is always clean and properly managed. Well done!
So happy to find all sorts of Eastern European wines, condiments, leberwurst, prepared foods and more! Will be back very soon!!
A nice selection of easter European goods and snacks. The lady who I assumes owns the place is very friendly and willing to offer suggestions and recommendations for things you can get from a given country for instance, though be careful she doesnt talk you into buying too much! Their selection rotates every so often, so you might call ahead if you want to go back for more of the same things. A very fun shop to visit.
I love my felted slippers from Nepal.
One of the Fabulous place in regarding service . What a great hospitality that they did to me . Very impressed and obviously live to doing recommend others . Keep providing Legendary Service . Good luck 👍
Great customer service - I love there European Foods, Ice Cream, Beer & Wine.
Great selection of Russian produce. Owner also sells other Russian goods such as nesting dolls. This might be the only Russian store in the area. Very Russian style. The owner is friendly.
Nobember 30, 2018. The store is working its normal hours!Come and pick up great and fresh products!Always...friendly and responsible owners, convenient location, affordable prices!
Small selection, foods that are sold are old and their freshness date is highly questionable. I bought honey cookies that were old and dry, and chocolates that tasted like a knock off and not the genuine chocolate that Im used to under this name.
Great place to find food stuff not available in refular grocery stores.
Very interesting and high quality smoked fish. I love this place owned by Lithuanians.
The only place to get eastern European food in the east bay.
Fully stocked Russian grocery store with a great selection and helpful, friendly service. Parking is challenging.
The owner lady is soo rude. Terrible
Great Russian grocery store where you can get the real Russian style pickles.
Awesome market with imported Russian groceries - was surprised to find sgushennoye moloko, tarkhun and buratino soda!
Possibly one of the best places to buy Eastern European food, wine, and sweets.
Russian store in Oakland, CA: you may find not only The Grechka, but also Sgushennoye Moloko
Thats by my errand spots, I must have a reason to go back lol
They sell lots of really yummy Eastern European products. If ever home sick like me, its the spot to go to in east bay.
Various types of European food. I like it
Not so good for my opinion. Prices are little bigger..
It’s cheaper to go to Russia than shop here, sunflower seeds are $7.29 !!!!!!!! Robbing people in the broad daylight
The Place for all your Eastern European deli needs in/near Oakland.
Great
I like this store
Yum!
Very well
