ordered a mixed tray yesterday one of the items was completely spoiled and smelled very bad. I was so impressed in front of my guests. I called the store to let them know. Her response (OH I WILL TALK TO HIM AND SEE. Didn’t even apologize or tried to make it up to me. Note: I ordered the tray on Sunday to be ready Monday at 3:00 pm therefore I want to change one of the items so I called around 10:00 am Monday asking them if I can cancel one item on the tray and add another one. She said I can’t do that because they already started it so I was like WHAT my order not until 3:00 pm why would they start now she was like oh no just the round koba must be boiled now. So I was like yeah please don’t let start my order now that’s way too early and won’t even look fresh. Therefore now I believe that the whole tray was made earlier that’s why the koba halab smelled and tasted sour . Other items were okay but at this point I don’t trust it at all. I just don’t understand why people treat others just like the way they want to be treated be honest and work extra harder to make your customers happy. Don’t start customers order 6 hours before promising time just because you want to save money mak

This grocery store has progressively gone downhill. 1st off the girl running the register kept on stopping my order to answer texts on her phone. She did this 3 times while I was checking out, how pathetic. Then when you ask the manager where a few items are, he seems annoyed he has to even answer. Also too many flies around the dried fruit. After the cashier stopped to answer texts on her phone, ill never shop here again. And I've been coming here on and off for 20 years.

Staff and owner are very friendly and helpful. They don't act pretentious or have their noses in the air. This is the only place I purchase my homemade yogurt (liban) from. The thick layer of cream skin is so delicious and such a treat. But the best part about the yogurt here is that when they make it they slightly burn the pot of milk so it adds this incredible smokey flavor that just makes it absolutely perfect. You can't find this anywhere else. If you've never tried Iraqi yogurt before get it from here, you won't be disappointed.

The staff here is great. Big helpful smiles. The breads, fresh and amazing. Sometimes the fruit has fruit flies, so ALWAYS wash your fruit no matter where you get it from. Watch an episode of ‘MONSTERS INSIDE ME’. You’ll be washing your store bought fruit every time. But the customers in here leave a lot to be desired. Some are just pigs. I’ve had men take cuts in front of me. It’s like you’re not even there. The meat counter; well for one thing the butcher can’t speak English. The second thing, everything there is covered with blood. The handles on the freezer doors, smeared with blood. The butchers apron loaded with blood. I just wonder if the health inspector has been by recently? Lastly, never, NEVER buy the mixed olives, pickles, beets, baby corn etc., from the open salad bar thing in front of where the Iraqi bread is baked. On more then one occasion I have witnessed bare hands & fingers help themselves to the pickles, olives, and beets. I saw a man with a cigar in one hand (between fingers) shift the cigar over to the other hand and then his smoking bare hand goes in for a beet which he immediately gulps down (I saw him help himself over & over again while wa
