Used to frequent this place after the pandemic but it's no longer the same. The food is not tasty,…read morenot fresh and overpriced. $21 for essentially a simply sandwich and coffee (that pretty much tastes like frothy milk). I know food costs have gone up but that's too expensive for what I got. First the sandwich I received was not what I had ordered and paid for - something completely different. The sandwich I received had stale bread and the ham was regular deli meat you buy in the grocery aisle. The store offerings also reduced to basically a really long grocery shelf of chips. The service is mediocre with a stoic/rude cashier. The store ambience is cramped - which I didn't mind before when the food tasted good. There's a bin right where you collect your order which is very unappealing. I want to support the local community but I won't be returning anytime soon. I hope they can improve.

The app will say something is on sale for $4. You go to this store and it's actually $12. Whole Foods is often cheaper than here. There's pretty much never anything but self-checkout open. And it's all just messy and unkempt.

I had a very disturbing experience at the Giant Reisterstown location and I will not stay quiet…read moreabout it. My child, who has a disability, was using a wheelchair when we entered the store. An employee immediately told him to "get off." I clearly stated that my child has a disability and requires the wheelchair, yet staff continued to argue with me and insisted he could not use it simply because he is a child. It did not stop there. Employees began speaking loudly about us in front of other customers, causing unnecessary attention and embarrassment. My child and I were both humiliated. To make matters worse, we were followed around the store. When I addressed the issue with the manager (Jackson), he repeated the same false claim and dismissed my concerns instead of correcting his staff. This is not just bad customer service this is a serious lack of ADA awareness and basic respect. You do NOT question or deny someone's use of a wheelchair because you "don't think" they need it. No parent should have to defend their child's disability in a grocery store. I expect Giant to address this immediately with proper staff training and accountability. Until then, I would strongly reconsider shopping at this location.

It's strengths lie in its variety of merchandise and its warm-hearted Korean owners. It's main drawback is its prices, which, in my opinion, is a necessary evil of running a small-time business in a city and lacking economies of scale. You pay for the convenience of not walking, biking or driving all the way to ghetto Safeway ten blocks away off Bladensburg. Among the more specialized foods served are decent-quality italian meats and cheeses, kombucha tea, a wide variety of wines and beers (to include belgian) that are reasonably priced, Ben & Jerry's iced cream, and several types of asian gummies to include grape and pear. Credit cards are only accepted for purchases of $10 or more, but there is an ATM available in the corner immediately to your right once you enter.

Mostly stocked with gourmet snacks and light lunches, there is also a to-go / delivery ($3 charge) menu to order different courses from the Presidents Sports Bar attached to the Renaissance Hotel. It's well stocked with random items like homemade cookies and box cookies to house salads and sandwiches ( and even cold desserts like tiramisu and mini bananas fosters. There is a candy bucket tree with single candies in the clear buckets. They have a small coffee bar with carafe coffee and teas. You can also buy fruit individually and croissants. They have a freezer stocked with gelato cups, ice cream bars, etc. The items are reasonably priced, but certain bagged items like those same cookies ( Mexican hot chocolate) that they sell at Dolcezza can run up to $6. It's definitely a must try for the late afternoon or late night snacker. They are open until Midnight.

Talking to the friendly clerk, it sounded like the market gets quite busy during lunch time. I didn't try any of the food, but it looked pretty good. They also carry some local chocolates - I did try the wine truffles which the clerk recommended. They were $6 for four individually wrapped treats. The truffles satisfied my craving for sweets perfectly and I thought were reasonably priced. I would come back here if I were looking for a convenient snack and it were too miserable too go outside. The service was good here, but I'm taking off a star because the prices are not clearly marked and I had to ask about quite a few items.
