Their food is disgusting. It's also old, not made today. This is not the first time I tried it and I should know better by now. I certainly cook better Russian food at home. Entire purchase is going to the trash now!!!! If I could give -10 stars I would, but rating only goes as low as one star so that's what they are getting. I also see how they reply to other customers whose reviews they don't like. There are better stores from this store that are within walking distance at East 18 and East 19 streets on Kingshighway- and you will like the food there: Domino, Green Market, Big Banana and many others.
Added reply to the store's owner:
Stores that I also reviewed in the past have fixed their issues, at least majority of them. Once I am certain that these issues are gone for good, reviews will be updated.
Your store has presented itself as a bad business for a while now and I finally got the time to review you accordingly. Food, purchased at your store is essentially not fit for human consumption. This is not the first time it has happened, it also happened on at least several occasions. I simply want to warn people so they know. As a Local Google Guide I take my reviews seriously. In fact, multiple stores and businesses have received positive reviews in this area, you simply chose to omit them in your response. If you prefer, this issue can be escalated to Health Department as it probably should be.
Just because you don't know how to respond to negative reviews in a constructive manner as you have demonstrated over and over here in responses to reviews on Google, doesn't mean issues that people mention do not exist. And attacking a reviewer only confirms that the review is right on the money.
Be mindful it will always be crowded on Sundays for liturgy. Come early at 9 am for confession. During major Holy Days overcrowded- always come ahead of time for Christmas and Easter, during which expect to stay for at least 3, sometimes 5 hours. Attire should be appropriate: women in skirts, covering their head with a shawl, men in long pants, no shirts. Very traditional parish. Church has a small store that is open during the services. At other times the church may be opened to light a candle- just ring bell at the office door.
Not alumni friendly campus. Visiting is actively discouraged.
