I ran into this supermarket by accident about 1 month ago, I went in for some fruits and fell in love with it. The supermarket has two floors and a great selection of merchandise. The fruits are fresh and the prices are reasonable..I live a few miles away and I took a cab to go there again, I don't regret it!
My all time favorite place! You are guaranteed to get anything and everything fresh and nice! Whether be it the veggies, fruits, dairy or meat you get it all. I come to this location specifically to get all my weekly groceries. The ambiance is so great, something about it feels very friendly and comfortable. I bet you go there and don’t feel that welcoming vibe then I’ll personally pay for your groceries!!!
THEY SHUT THE LIGHTS OFF 15 mins before the store actually closes, in order to RUSH you out of the store. But this has the opposite affect, because now I'm moving SLOWER because I can't see the products front of me. I had to use my phone light to see what I was buying. Not only is this HORRIBLE customer service, it's SAFETY HAZARD to turn off the lights so your customers cannot see. Especially if you are visually impaired or if there is a wet spot or something in the aisle.
Good grocery story with friendly staff. I do like the fact that's its open late and has most of my grocery needs.
My gripe though is that the expiration dates on the food (from bread to meat) are definitely not correct. The food expires way too quickly than what is reported on the product. It's frustrating to pay full price for food that expires the next day after purchase (regardless of what the expiration date says).

The store's floors are clean, and the aisles are wide because of the dual level layout. The clerks, many of whom are local high school students, are always sweet and helpful. The produce section wouldn't be bad if it wasn't so expensive. But, the butcher and seafood sections have had a pungent bad odor that's persisted since the store was opened. I have been served meat that has already gone bad from the deli section. Also, the shelves are often bare, making finding the basics difficult. I only go to this store for items I know they have reliably like cheese blitzes. There are other grocery stores in the area that are more sanitary even if they look more crowded or disorganized.
The store offers a great selection of ready-to-eat meals. It's perfect for busy nights when I don't have time to cook.
They are the best supermarket in the area for fresh bread,dairy free and gluten free products. The last visit however resulted in bad smelling organic chicken and a onion rotten on the inside. The produce is ok to good depending on the rotation. The cashiers are polite and helpful.
Update: I again purchased meat that once I removed from the package didn’t smell fresh. Be careful.

First and the only decent grocery store in the neighborhood. The only con was that the freezer was broken the other day. The ice cream I bought was all melted. I got a refund but what was sad was no one was going to dump all the possibly melted foods, it seemed. I don't but their frozen food since then. But they have great inexpensive organic foods. So I buy here every week. 2floors. Eat in space on the second floor.
