Area is in decent range of places for people to get locally in this section of Springfield & also not far from downtown, emergency services (police/fire department not far), colleges plus the place serves the community well plus various foods that are available I doubt the big ones could ever do. They have hot food for takeout including sandwiches/grinders, Goya Food (OMG), coffee (Puerto Rico), various oils, coffee, meats & stuff I don't know if any other spot even thought of carrying (your loss if you didn't think about it) & they accept EBT/SNAP, debit/credit card, cash & before I forget the place also does MA Lottery & tobacco & extra note they got security officers in the place & also the little note of the location (in case some fools got stupid in their mind).

I have been looking forward to finally visiting Calabrese Market. I heard a lot about it and…read moreeverything that I heard was true. I really wish they were closer to Boston! Upon arrival, we first noticed that it was a very clean and well organized store. Plenty of places to sit and a buzzing vibe with all sort of activities (phone ringing, orders being taken, orders going out, kitchen activity and lots of customers eating in) We arrived about 1pm so it was part of the lunch time rush. We ordered a cucumber salad, chicken panini with onions (I didnt realize that caramelized onions was an option!), The Green Goddess was delicious....with fresh veggies (spinach, mozzarella, ricotta and spinich with avocado and pesto) and incredible taste! Little Havana was our last choice and that included roasted pork, shaved ham, swiss cheese, pickles and dijon mustard. Again a big hit...delicious and some to take for later! We sat down and one of the tables and enjoyed our lunch and the incredible lunch crowd! Lots of drinks to choose from, as well. I am so glad that we made it here. I am a fan, for sure! 5 stars Parking- easy Vibe- just that good food feeling Price- fair...going rate Will I be back? Of course, next time I go to Saratoga or am out in the Western part of Mass! My comment: when you come across these types of places, it is a great feeling...the quality, the service, the choices, price and good people! Fantastic!

So we paid Mom & Rico's a visit to give them a try last Friday.  Let's talk about…read more..   I must say the place is really nice looking.  Very old school Italian market, with some good finds in there.  They seemed friendly enough, so we decided to give them a try.  Now, once we came to look at the food on the buffet they had displaying, the lady immediately tried to sell us on it.  We weren't sure yet, as what we really wanted was to try one of their grinders.  The woman that helped us was being very insistent that we try the food at the buffet, but this was our first time there (as we mentioned) and wanted to take our time looking at the menu for grinders.  No one else was there so we figured it would be ok to take our time.  However the woman began to become super insistent that we try the food that she even got out a container and got her tongues out and pushed and PUSHED the buffet food on us.  At this point we were getting a little bothered by this, but we figured since we never been here we would give some of those items a try (such as the pasta salad that she claims no one ever made it the way they did).  We explained that we would only wanted samples so that we could try it as we really only wanted grinders.  She said that would be fine, but before I could even choose what items to pick from she immediately starts serving me one of the dishes in heaping portions.  I kept telling her that it was enough, and not too much, but she did not listen to me. Once again, she pushed and she pushed other items after I told her a couple of times that she was serving me already too much.  She finally stopped and packed the food up with the grinders that we ordered.  When we checked out the total bill came up to $54 for two grinders and that box of food we really didn't want to get.    Now let's talk about the food.  The cold cut grinder I ordered was good.  The Sausage and Pepper grinder (a hot grinder) was not even warm but COLD and the cheese wasn't even melted!  The items that we were, lets say, "forced" to get were the broccolini, meatballs, and pasta salad.  But to our surprise we found two large slices of garlic bread in the box that we never asked for, nor even seen her put in it.  Maybe to weigh down the food?  I don't know.  But the broccolini, was overcooked.  Meatballs were cold, and the pasta salad was ok.  It is so disappointing to see that the food that was supposed to be hot was in fact cold.    I honestly feel that we were hustled at this establishment.  Friendly staff but very pushy.  And all of the hot items of food were cold, and hardly think that the price we paid was worth it.

The problem I have with this location in particular is that it's very hit or miss. There's like no in-between. I've gone in and things have been fully stocked, and great customer service by workers, but then other times I've gone in and they're selling rotting fruit/veg, lots of empty shelves and I've left having not gotten anything. What really prompted me to review this place though was the fact that we just got over a bad snowstorm, a lot of people were looking to replenish their food items and there was so much snow and ice on the parking lot. I saw older one's holding on to dear life by the side of their cars to try not to fall on the pavement. That to me is completely unacceptable. Everyone here knew days in advance a storm was coming, why didn't they prepare the inside/out of the store? and if you're going to open to the general public after a storm, you're not gonna plow the parking lot? Yet other stores nearby didn't have this issue, their streets were plowed and salted. Really concerning that they're not taking safety into consideration.

They also have a wide variety of fresh fish, meats, and other essentials. The quality of the food is excellent, the store is always clean, and the produce is consistently fresh.

They have the good stuff here. Frozen foods? More winners. Pot stickers and other sorts of dumplings, frozen fish and meats. The store itself is clean, and the shelves are stocked. If you make Asian/Asian inspired food, this is the place to go. The store employees are helpful and courteous. If you're curious about what something might be, or how to use it, they'll be happy to explain. Lots and lots of parking at the Boston Road store.

This Price Rite is located in front of Hollywood Video, in the same plaza as Raymour & Flanigan. This discount supermarket is owned by the same company that owns Shop Rite and carries name brand products as well as their own Price Rite store brand, similar concept to Aldi and Save-A-Lot. On the way back to NY, I did some grocery shopping here recently. The place was mobbed, especially over the holiday. The produce section is the first section you walk through upon entering the store. This store actually had a decent selection of produce. I've been to other Price Rites where the produce looked picked over. The prices were fairly reasonable for bananas ($0.54/lb, seen it cheaper), lemons, avocados, lettuce, and apples. Orange juice and milk were both $1.99/gallon. Price Rite spaghetti sauce was $0.99/jar, imported Italian pasta was $0.99/lb, dozen large eggs $0.99, and Knorr noodles & sauce $0.94 each (I got this for less at the Schenectady NY store). The Pillsbury cake mix was $0.99 a box. A 10 lb bag of long grain rice is $4.99. Banquet frozen dinners are $0.99 and saw only Pepsi and Price Rite soft drinks in the store. Aisle 6 has a pretty good selection of Goya food and drink products. There were long lines at the checkout which is a sign that many people shop where the bargains are. Major CREDIT CARDS accepted. NOTES: Bring your own bags to save money. Plastic bags are available at $0.10 each and quantities are limited to 4 per each product. Self bagging area in front of the store.
