It's hilarious and comforting to read the numerous reviews by others who experience rudeness here…read more I worked in customer service throughout college and no matter how I felt I always treated customers like royalty or at the very least with decency, not because I had to do so, but because it felt like the right thing to do. Treat people kindly. Be courteous. Golden rule. You never know whose day you can be making (or ruining). You know. I won't say much else. The other reviews say plenty. Also, two stars rather than one because at least they are open 24/7.

Did not receive any hot sauce. How hard is it to put hot sauce in my bag? They could've even put it on top of the omelette for crying out loud! Plus the lady at the cash register was very rude to me! The managers always raise the price here and it's so not worth it! If I'm paying $10 for an omelette you can at least throw in a couple of hot sauces for me. Now I have to go out of my way to find Tabasco sauce while I'm on a time crunch!!! Please do better!!!!! Nasty service, careless and forgetful! Don't know if I'll ever come back here again. It is absurd.

On the way out not realizing I forgot to pay for the smoothie ( had just had bloodwork done and felt extremely lightheaded) the security guard completely harassed me saying I had been there last week and saw me on camera! I had never ever walked into this store in my life. I apologized and said I didn't mean not to pay for the smoothie-went immediately to the cashier and paid. Meanwhile the guard and got the owner/ manager who insisted that he caught me on video camera last week! Again I explained that I had never been in the store before and had stumbled upon it on way from the Drs office. I tried to apologize saying I don't live in the area have never been there before and just walked in after a Doctors appointment because I didn't feel well. The guard and the owner/ manager continued to harass me and continiued to rant saying they caught me on video camera last week. Insanity!!! I will never ever set foot in that shop again and hope nobody experiences this. So glad I do not live anywhere near this awful store!

The manager never said "Sorry about that" or anything else. I pointed out that the "Best by" date was last month. He refunded my money and called over someone who worked on the floor and told him to check the dates on the meat. We both went over and found over five packages of ground beef with the 6/29/26 "Best by" date. I found some with a "Best by" date of 7/9/26 and bought one. Got it home and opened it and it, too, was rotten. What the hell is giong on with this store? I've had a friend report that he's bought chicken breasts that were rotten when he opened them at home. Besides being outrageously overpriced this store doesn't check when meat is past it's sell date. I'm shopping at Target or Western Beef from now on. I'd give the store a no stars rating if I could.

Agata & Valentina was in NY before many other gourmet markets, other than the fabulous Zabar's…read moremarkets. If you're on the Upper East Side, closer to the East River, you've no longer got the beloved Eli's Vinegar Factory to shop at. It's mainly Agata & Valentina on 79th and 1st Ave. There is also Gristede's and D'Agostino's, for more every day items as well as gourmet fare, unless you are a Whole Foods Shopper (3rd and 88th). But the first two grocers offer more mainstream selections. Agata & Valentina has a real family component for local residents, but also has the transient dynamic being on a main avenue (1st). I love splurging on their cheeses, gourmet snacks, prepared foods and bakery treats. I would like to go back to try their homemade pizzas and pastas. Just driving down 1st Avenue, and by it, I smile. It's definitely a highlight for me. They serve coffees and breakfast cafe food before 11:30am. And even though it advertises as an Italian/Sicilian market, I always thought of it as a very broad Mediterranean selection. Check their events online, as a few times a week they have pizza making and cookie decorating classes for kids. NB-- yes, Rachel Ray worked here.
