The owners are very nice and friendly...but beware of the meat. We went in and the shop had a very strong putrid smell. Despite this, we ignored the smell and bought some meat from the store. After coming home, we realized that the strong, foul odor was coming from the meat. We tried to wash it and the smell was still there. After looking it up, we realized that this strong odor comes from meat that is spoiled...Be cautious when purchasing from this store. I would also recommend for the store owners to keep the store more clean and organized.

Very friendly owner. Zeiton is also caring and a recommending new torshi style to me that she made it. Tasty and fresh kabob for 5 skewers only 15$ and homemade nan. Got fresh herbs from their freezer side and the taste and brand was outstanding.

Small store loaded with a huge selection of herbs, nuts, seeds,...Middle Eastern foods. Also fresh homemade bread, sweets and meat. Lovely hard-working owners.

The most delicious lamp kebab, with Nami flat bread and sauce that I have ever eaten. The meat was so flavorful and tender, plus the sauce was delicious.

Five stars for the nice service and option of having fresh Afghan bread before 11am on the weekends. I came here after going on a calling spree to find Afghan bread on a Sunday morning. Surprisingly, no other Afghan market in the area had any available. My call was answered on the first ring and the same person I spoke with recognized me, showed the bread and explained it was a certain style of Afghan bread plus the option of wheat or white. It's $2.00 a piece and very taste compared to other breads I've had. In addition, I liked all of the other products this little market had to offer and I'll likely be back. I

I recently visited this shop and it was amazing. First thing I noticed was how clean it was. The floors shone, the shelves were dust-free, and even the corners were spotless. It’s not every day you see a store that cares so much about being clean.Then there were the items for sale. Everything looked fresh and new. From fruits and veggies to packaged goods, everything seemed like it was just delivered. I picked up a few things and they were all top quality. It’s great to shop knowing that you’re getting good stuff.The staff there were super friendly too. They greeted me with a smile as soon as I walked in. Whenever I needed help finding something, they were right there to show me where it was. They knew a lot about their products and gave me some great suggestions.Prices were reasonable. I compared some of the prices with other stores and found that this shop offers good deals. It’s nice to know that you’re not overpaying for things. Plus, they had some items on sale which were a real bargain.I also noticed how well organized the store was. Every section was clearly marked, so I didn’t waste any time looking for what I needed. The layout made my shopping quick and easy. It’s clear they think about their customers’ convenience.Another thing that stood out was how they care about safety. There were signs reminding people to keep distance and hand sanitizer stations at different spots. In times like these, it’s good to see a store taking health and safety seriously.The checkout was smooth. There were enough cashiers, so the line moved fast. They even helped pack my groceries, which was a nice touch. And the cashier was so friendly, asking how my day was going and making small talk. It made the whole experience more personal.When I left the store, I felt really good about my visit. Everything from the cleanliness, the quality of products, the staff, to the overall atmosphere was just right. It’s not just a place to buy things; it’s a place where you feel welcome and taken care of.I’d definitely recommend this shop to anyone. Whether you’re doing your weekly grocery shopping or just need to pick up a few things, this place has got you covered. It’s clean, well-stocked, and the people there are great. I’m already planning my next visit!

I called the guy for kabob, he said it will take 20 minutes to be ready. When I got there to pick up the kabobs even before 20 minutes, he said he is close for today. Most the things he sells are expired. Please don’t waste your time to that this store, nothing is good there. I saw mice in the store running on the things. They don’t keep things clean?.

I don’t want to say much, but just pay a visit. That will be your first and last visit for shopping at the store, especially if anything was expired and you return it back to the store. Unprofessional! I am not even sure if everything is halal at this store. I wouldn’t recommend you going there. I bought a sweet bread(Roat), and I took it home. My wife checked and she said it’s hard like a rock. We sat it on the table over night because I thought it was frozen, but it was still as hard as stone. So I brought it back to the store the next morning, and he said he is not supposed to accept any returns of food items even if it was expired. Although, the bread didn’t have any expiration date either hahahahaha. Straighten up your acts old man. This is not Afghanistan that you cannot take any returns if it’s expired. Set an example of a good human being and a good Muslim. Just an advice! Don’t sell your bad attitude to customers especially if you are wrong. That’s not a good way to do business.

I came here like a yr ago to see what they had, I left with fenugreek seeds,halal gummy worms, my second trip I came to see if they had red henna to dye my hair and of course the guy pulled it right out. Literally in and out, but he was very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend coming to this store. I was able to find so many things I've been looking for I haven't been able to find anywhere else.

First time Shopper. I asked for lamb for kabab grill. I got 3.2 lbs out of which 0.56 lbs was bones. Never bought lamb for grilling with bones.

The best Afghan bread I've had in a hot minute!! I truly enjoy it toasted with some feta and walnuts . They have a lot of Arab/Middle Eastern and South Asian spices and ingredients. The first time I went the man working was SOO kind & helpful, the second time the other guy was very polite left us to find what we need then pay. It is very crowded in terms of space but nothing out the ordinary for most Arab markets.

The store looks like a trash and obviously managed by an old mean man which know nothing about customer service. Fist time visit experiences the worse experience. Never say or ask anything the old mean man get mad!!!!
