I decided to do a little test. If you buy their beef biryani in person, you pay $9.99 for a 24 ounce container. If you buy it through Uber or Doordash, they have a buy 1 get 1 free deal. With this deal though, you pay $15.99 for two 16 ounce containers. Calculating the per ounce weight, it's slightly cheaper to buy in person. This is assuming you're picking up the order. If you were having it delivered, it would surely be even more expensive when taking into account fees and tip. Hope this helps! read more

Chicken biryani & Tandoori was good. It's pretty cheap too if you are ordering for yourself only.

Ordered from here via Uber Eats. 2 orders of Butter Chicken, 1 hot tea, and 1 mango lassi drink. There was a special on butter chicken for buy 1 get 1 free at $15 on Uber Eats. It comes with a choice of either basmati rice or Naan bread. The butter chicken dish was all white meat chicken pieces (kabob sized) marinated heavily with lots of butter and not spicy. It tasted like it was mostly yellow curry powder and butter. I was disappointed I couldn't detect any other typical ingredients like spiced tomatoes at all. Though portion size was filling, I am not sure I would order from here again. read more

I bought the Beef Teheri from Al Aqsa Super Market under the buy-one-get-one offer. I ordered 5 boxes, and they gave me 10 boxes as promised. However, the amount of teheri in each box was very small. It felt like the food from 5 boxes was divided into 10 boxes. Because of this, I had a very disappointing experience. I hope they improve the portion size in the future, especially during promotional offers. read more

I gave them three stars because the store always has lots of products. There is a stampede of pedestrians shopping here daily. Hmmm well perhaps I should say locals. Thawed have been two people that were nice to me when I go in this store intending to shop. Two! Now that is very sad considering there is a slew of people working here in different departments. One of the people who was very nice to me was another customer. There is a hot Buffett in the back of the store which is part of the restaurant where you can order to go or sit in to eat. I had questions about the food and pricing as there aren't signs up anywhere. I attempted to ask the gentleman behind the counter about a dish and if there were combination specials. All he said was everything is separate. I replied okay well are they priced differently or is everything the same price? They are different he responded. Okay how much are the vegetables? $5.99. Alrighty, can you show me what size container that is? He showed me and I said okay cool can I have the vegetables and... Hahahaa I'm laughing now but I was not happy at the time. He put the container down and walked away and began talking to someone who walked up to the register. That happened last Friday. I was so hungry. I've been in this store several times. I've seen the Buffett food multiple times and tried to get information from staff back there many times. I'm shot down every time. Either a question is answered or I'm totally ignored. It's so disheartening because I want to shop everywhere and feel welcomed to spend my money. I've food this type of behavior at different places across the city. I don't like nor can I respect that. The food at the Buffett has never looked good to me but looks can be deceiving so I was certainly willing to buy it and try it. The good always smells very good. And I've done doordash from this restaurant/store so people obviously enjoy it. The one gentleman who is always nice and helpful to me is amazing. I love the way he smiles when he greets me and other customers. I love that he is pleasant and polite and how he takes me directly to whatever product I'm inquiring about. More employees here could follow his customer etiquette, it would be a more pleasurable experience for the customer. I'm not telling people not to shop here, I'm telling people to speak up speak out and make reviews. I believe the majority of the food is imported from Asia. The food is Indian, Bangladeshi, and the like. I love that they carry fruits and vegetables that aren't indigenous to what we typically eat as Americans. There are a variety of different fishes, poultry, and meats. There is a meat and fish market in the back of the store as well. The freezer section has many different types of frozen dishes and appetizers. Some of which I believe may be over priced but I'd still like to try. read more

Al Aqsa Supermarket - a view from a car window - International Grocery Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Ever since this place opened, we have been a regular visitor for our weekly groceries. Within a relatively small time they have become popular not only to us but also among other fellow people from Bengal staying in Buffalo. Especially because of their butcher section, because we like fresh whole chicken and the butchers cut the chicken into custom pieces. Their goat meat (both fresh and frozen) are at reasonable prices and cheaper than other halaal food markets. You will see a tiny restaurant at the corner of the store right next to the butcher section. That's where they serve different dishes such as butter chicken, chicken roast, goat biryani. We regularly buy their fried chicken and their chicken samosas are too good. We will keep on visiting them!! read more

Al Aqsa Supermarket - Butcher section - International Grocery Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Driving by, decided to turn around and check it out. Such a variety of foods, generally unknown to me. I picked up a few unknown fresh vegetables to google and try, and some packaged food. Unfortunately, the prices are not shown for some items, but the cashier was helpful in that regard. Also bought several takeout items: Chicken Biryani; delicious, needed more chicken, the flavoring was terrific. Also to-go: a chicken sheeskabob and a chicken patty of some kind. Both were very good. Finally, had a hot beverage, milky and minty, but no idea what it was! maybe a coffee or tea base? So, for the adventurous, please go, experiment, get out of your comfort zone! i'll return to try more unknown items, for sure. read more

Poor customer service. They don't bother to train their employee's the least skill on how to interact with customers. Everyone act like the owner read more

This is a pretty sizable market with fresh produce along with meat and fish. It is catered to Bangladeshi and other South Asian communities. However, there is a "restaurant" section in the back corner, which is certainly worthy of trying. Unfortunately, it is super congested and not very welcoming. The restaurant portion definitely needs to be revamped. The proximity of the tables and chairs does not make it easy to have a meal in peace without continuously moving for others to pass by. Until they change this space, I would opt for take out. That being said, the food is delicious. I found it to be reasonably priced. They are famous for their beef teheri (rice with diced beef dish), so that is what we got. It was great by itself. Also, had the mango lassi and tandoori chicken, which were good. Convenient to be able to shop groceries and take food home. They have a good variety of savory options. read more

The butter chicken dish was absolutely horrible. Whoever made the sauce , used way too much oil. So much oil it was floating at the top. The rice was stale tasting, the chicken looked like it had been cooked and reheated and then reheated again. Just horrible I'm so disappointed read more

Ordered the buttered chicken and garlic nann bread and there was hair in my chicken, ended up throwing all my food out was very gross. I then called to tell them about it and they just hung up on me when I told them about it. Never ordering from there again read more

I am a big favorite of Irish fish and living in Rochester, it was always difficult to find quality Ilish fish. I sometimes drove to Newyork or New Jersey to get original Padma Ilish. Since this supermarket opened I went there last month and purchased about $600 worth of various kinds frozen bangladeshi fish, goat and chicken. I picked up four Padma Irish at a cost of $280 and they were the best so far I found in us. This place has become my source of meat and fish and Buffalo is much shorter drive than New York. Everything is good quality and reasonably priced. People are very courteous and helpful. read more
