Little old market that is still family run. I stop in for feta cheese, kalamata olives, and frozen take and bake spanokopita. Yum!
To all my Greek friends out there .... cook your own arnaki they cook smelly provatines... not cool way to ruin our Christmas dinner yuk
Delicious homemade food stuffs; great selection of spices, Greek cheeses and other imported products. The mom could come from central casting and truly cares about each and every customer. Otoh, the sons are ...
Jk. It's a terrific, well-run and very clean small, local grocer that I'm delighted is within waking distance from my place of work. I wish they opened earlier at least a few days each week.

Made a few visits here for hard-to-find ingredients. The owner is a pleasure to deal with, and the Yaya up front reminds me deeply of my Italian American grandmother.
The wide range of product available at such a reasonable price made this my go-to shopping destination. From fresh produce to pantry staples, I can always count on finding great deals without compromising on quality.
I've been going to this place since I was a kid. Always a special treat in store when you go. If you need anything for your Greek friends, this is the place to go. If it's food, liquor, knickknacks, fresh meat or produce, Columbus has it. The woman behind the register has been there my entire life, its great.
Unfortunately I was disappointed when I walked into the store; in my opinion it was very dis-organized, empty boxes all over the place. Certainly not a pleasing presentation, and not clean. I came home only to find out when I opened their homemade Filo package it was moldy. I called and spoke to one of the owners, not Tony, and he said “I FIND THAT HARD TO BELIEVE”. Enough said, I’m sure you get the point.
If you are cooking a Greek meal or looking for authentic Greek cheeses, Greek ingredients, great meats (lamb, chicken, pork and sausage) this is the place to go. If you are looking for a Whole Foods experience and environment this is not your place. Leave your feelings and sensitivity at the door, you are in their house and Mama runs it, her son's also. Hahaha
