Place is small. And it feels even smaller. But greens and fruits are all good, stocked. Also meat options are good. I hope they revamp the place a bit.. its aging. Would visit again, but nothing special about it.

Great store to buy halal meats and Mediterranean products as well as indian and Pakistani products. Very reasonably priced all throughout, only downside is its quite tight to move around but most of all its not as clean as the standard supermarket youre used to.

A lot of different types of fresh and frozen food & vegetables. You can also find good meat and many spices. They have to pay more attention to two things:- Cleaning the place very well- Train the employees very well

Selling old spoiled meat:It was a place for fresh meats. I used to buy beef from here. But now they are selling old spoiled beef meat and double in price. I thought it was a mistake for the first time. No, they are purposely selling spoiled meat. Agree on the price hike due to COVID-19. But paying double the price for the spoiled one is not acceptable.Added the photos.

This grocery store is simply great. We come here often for fresh pita bread, lebne, and cheese. They have the best garlic, cucumbers, and all around a huge variety of products for being such a small store. Employees are always friendly!

People always go there, at least for once to buy something very exotic. The first attraction is the large variety in the meat corner. Check my post about the other branch. Both are one of my favourites. I like their good collection of sweets and confectionaries too.

If you are looking options to buy meat, chicken, lamp (overall meat requirement) . This is the place …There are some positive and negative feedbacks.I will go through some positive feedbacks first.1. Multiple options for meat, chicken (The only place which are more options)2. You can buy Indian grocery items along with meat that way you can save little bit time.3. Variety of fruits but sometimes overpriced.4. The Taj Mahal place where you can park and eat and car wash in one go.5. Quiet good parking space.6. I octionally get Turkish sweet (which was sold outside) of Taj Mahal which is my favorite sweet item.7. The meat can be cut/clean as per your requirement.8. The only reason to visit and purchase meat, chicken because it claimed as halalImprovements (negative feedback):1. The staff at meat section is not professional and sometime behaves very rude (There are couple of folks (I don’t want to take any name) and I found these two folks very rude and not at all professional)2. If you want to save time . Please DO NOT go on weekends.3. Even if you go on normal day and normal hours. You might have to depend on your luck to save time.4. Always check bills and items. Sometime, it get mixed and you might loose or save money.5. They need to change credit card swapping machines. Most of the time it suck and pretty slow.6. I am requesting through this feed back. Please please give professional training or hire some decent staff in your meat section.7. The meat price is bit expensive. Even though, people are aware of it but still comes here as they don’t multiple options on other places where they can get meat, chicken, lamp and grocery items under one roof.8. Very congested place (very hard to move along with shopping cart) . Specially with kids.9. Please improve hygiene in meat section.10. The queue at meat section needs improvements (including staff and order handling system) it is bit crowded and confusing who order what and which bag belongs to whom.

Review №38

DO NOT BUY GOAT MEAT FROM THIS PLACE!!!!!!! Absolutely horrible. We spent about $20 for 2lbs of goat meat (it did not taste like goat meat at all) only to come home with 80% bones. Plus the meat wasnt even close to 2 lbs, it was way less. They package the meat away from your sight because they know exactly what they are doing. Reading other peoples reviews, I should have known to check them out before I shopped there. Never shopping there again.

Worst place to shop, their prices is too high comparing to other stores, they have no customer service ever, they do not appriciate customers and show no respect, most of time you dont find the price for items you want, and meat prices goes up every week there?!.

Good halal options! Don’t miss the separate building with more frozen items. Although they are focused on Indian & Pakistani cuisine, there’s Arab classics like Egyptian Molokhia. Best price for frozen halal turkey! I gave 4 stars because the line for the butcher was very long & the cashier line was long. Also the aisles are tiny. Take a basket if possible not a cart/trolley. Even though lines were long, they went fairly quickly. Staff were really nice, I called ahead to ask if they had halal turkey. They were helpful on the phone & in person.

A lot of fun but a lot to walk. Do wear your running or sports shoes otherwise your legs are going to hurt a lot. A lot of fun rides but do be aware that particular rides are operable throughout but some only at certain times of the day. There is a good amount of food options.

Review №63

Always love to shop here. Groceries are always fresh and available. They also have fresh halal meats and they cut the meat to your liking. They have a huge selection of international spices and canned/frozen foods. One drawback is that it can get crowded and too busy on weekends with limited parking so I recommend going to their larger Sunnyvale branch.

We usually go here to get fresh goat meat. The lines can get pretty long but that also means the meat is fresh. The store is little small to push your trolley around so prefer making visits for buying shorter list of items.

I buy chicken, goat meat and beef from here every week. They are fresh and really flavorful. There is always a big line to get the meats but the wait is worth. There is enough parking in the complex all the time and is a restroom too. If you want coconut with water, they will cut n pack it for you.

Review №73

This is bad place to buy meat.. Mix old and fresh ones in front of customers. Unless you buy and cook same day, avoid this place. Billing is one of the worse as it takes long time than buying products. You gotta spend 2 hours just to get meat.

An
Review №74

Good Indian grocery store that also sells meat. If you want to get groceries, vegetables, and meat with one stop, this is a good place to go. They have a better fruit selection than most Indian grocers in the area. Its slightly pricier than your average Indian grocery store. Could use a little more space.

Small place, go for halal and special meat requests. Smells because of meat. They really need to invest in some automatic air fresheners. New India Bazaar or Patel Brothers would be a better option if you actually wanted groceries.

Do not accept prepacked meat anytime. I had asked for 1lb goat meat and they handed over meat packed and said its a goat meat. I asked twice and they confirmed. Iater at home I found its a mix of goat meat and other meat and also very smelly. I threw it and it spoiled my Friday dinner. Please do not accept pre packed meat packet even they confirm.

Review №99

Crowded and not clean. I dont shop here but recently my wife figured that during this time of the year they get good mangoes. So I went there just for them.My first experience makes me question their honesty. On price tag it clearly says 16 mangoes per box. During check-out, guy at the counter looked at next counter guy and said to me these mangoes are big so you can have only 12 and charged me $1.29/mango for 4 remaining mangoes.If thats the case i wont mind paying but they should say so on price tag.
