Trader Joe's Queen's Fond Memories of going to Queen's for…read morethe day. There was always a stop at Trader Joe's. I'm so glad we have locations here now. I always give TJ gift cards. My friends and family help me get groceries when I need them from TJ. They did change the frozen spinach which was disturbing. Prices for nuts are higher than Whole Foods 365 Brand. It's gotta be their spanakopita I'm after. I overdosed on it. I've always purchased the shopping bags. Remember when they were a $1.00 haha? My current passion is the totes. I've got one for every color outfit. Plus they make me happy as my apartment decor. Thanks Marilyn G. Dear San Diego Yelp Friend ! Why wouldn't I recommend ?

This is one of two Trader Joe's close to my home…read more I came here to purchase my groceries and it was enough to last the week. I like the selection of oriental food and American food alike. I feel guilty in buying junk food, but I think Trader Joe's is slightly healthier than other alternatives. The service during checkout is quick, despite the lines being quite long. Ambiance is like that of other Trader Joe's, lively and positive.

There is street parking right in front of the store but not easy to get a spot in this area.

It's generally empty midday during the week. The fruits and vegetables are plentiful and sales change weekly. The butchers and fishmongers are friendly. The aisles are spacious. The only negative for me is the temperature- it's always so cold in the store (all year long).

This is my family's go to Asian supermarket. Prices may be a tad bit pricier than supermarkets in…read moreFlushing (Main St area) but worth it given the ample (and free!) parking on the roof and not as crowded when doing your actual shopping. Produce wise, they have an abundance of veggies and herbs. Fruit selection is not as varied as you would find in Flushing and I find berries are always pricier here - but if you're in a pinch, it'll do. I love their seafood section - we always get their branzino or sea bass and they do a great job deboning and cleaning it out for us so it's prepped and ready for cooking when we get home. Their freezer sections has your classic American frozen foods and also a myriad of Asian ice creams (like melons, mochi ice cream), frozen dim sums and baos, thinly sliced hot pot/bbq meat, and frozen Thai spring roll wrappers if you choose to make your own spring rolls. The refrigerated section have ready to cook Korean noodle dishes, ramen, and even seitan (for all the vegetarians out there!). After paying for your goods, don't forget to give your parking ticket to the cashier to get free parking!

Out of all the H Marts I've been too, this is by far the best one! They have everything and…read moreanything you can imagine. The meat section is pretty good- they even have tomahawk steak! The seafood section is really good too- live lobsters, king crab, snow crab, baby octopus, wild shrimp, squid, etc. Everything looked super fresh. The section I was most excited about was the fruit section. I've been on such a exotic fruit craze lately and they had most of what I was looking for; they had young coconut water, mangosteen, dragonfruit, starfruit, mamey sapote, cherimoya, rambutan, and lychee just to name a few. And all the fruits were in fresh condition. My first time experience here was 11/10- I was so impressed with everything this H Mart had to offer. It was pretty crowded in there but the line moved really fast. I recommend everyone to pay a visit and I'll definitely be back! :)

Wow, super busy for their grand opening week! But this place is definitely clean, has a great…read morevariety of things, and friendly staff (even if they seem a bit dizzy with all the people). It's packed, so keep that in mind! Looks like they're giving out a small gift package if you spend over $30 for the grand opening period (outside on Bowne St side, there should be a tent) and they have some items for sale that may change in the future, like a box of Shin Ramen for $11. They have a lot of ramen/ramyun here and the items are slightly more tailored for the Chinese demographic. There seems to be some Chinese speaking staff here, although some of the younger staff were just speaking English, and plenty of signs were in 3 languages. Actually I lied, most product price signs are in English so don't quote me on this. I just ran in and out because I was already exhausted from work and didn't want to drown in people.

I typically make a visit to Bravo for their organic section and meats and cheese which offers a bit…read moremore variety compared to the other local stores. The prices here are slightly higher than the neighborhood shops which is probably because they offer a bit more. The sales don't compare as much to the other places, but still a convenient stop in the area.

I only come to this Key Food after hitting the produce stand across the street to round out my…read moreshopping trip with anything I need that they don't have. As a supplemental grocery store to the pantheon of produce, it's a fine grocery store. It's clean and well stocked, and everything in the store is fresh and non expired. The prices are a bit higher than what you'd get elsewhere (I'd recommend Food Bazaar over this), but you're really paying for proximity and convenience when shopping here. One area where I think this store lacks is prepared food. They have a few pastas and chicken options but other than that it's pretty limited. I also think their bread options could be better -- they do have a bakery but I struggle to find sourdough options at this location. Service here is fine and friendly, I've never had a problem during check out or ordering from the deli here. Overall, a decent grocery store when you're in a pinch.

This was my first time at this Lidl location (since it used to be DSW). I had a great experience…read morehere, and I was very pleasantly surprised by the overall layout and design of the store. I did go on a cold early Saturday morning - so the store wasn't very packed, with only few people shopping. The self checkouts are also so nice because the lines at other Lidl locations (Astoria, especially) are atrociously long so the self checkout option offers a great alternative to finish up fast! The produce section is large! Very generous and very convenient to have that in a Lidl. Much better than the Astoria location. I found some great organic options in the produce section as well (peppers, tomato's, avocados, cucumbers) and overall, their seasonal isle was also stock very well and neatly organized. I was also on a mission to find Pillsbury pie crusts for chicken and cheese / tuna "empanadas" I make and I asked one associate who was friendly enough and was able to show me the Lild version (because they didn't have the Pillsbury kind). The recipe worked out just a good with it. I'll be coming back for sure!

Lidl is a German chain of over 12,000 stores in every member sate of the European Union. In 2017…read morethe chain expanded its stores into the United States. For those wondering what type of store this is, think less Whole Foods and more of an Aldi. Lidl carries a limited selection of name brand items alongside their own brands of products at discount. I frequent this particular shopping center because of the Target on the upper levels. Over the years a few stores here have closed but many remain including a Macy's clearance location and a couple eateries. Much to my surprise, as I was leaving recently I ran across the Lidl sign on the main level leading me downstairs. Take the elevator down from the main area and it takes you straight to the supermarket. My only point of comparison for Lidl stores is their location in Garwood, NJ. Compared to that location this one is better organized with wider aisles (or at least it felt that way). I was very impressed by how well stocked the shelves are and how clean everything looked. Now, I grant this is a new location so it shouldn't look run down. The prices at Lidl are generally lower than other markets. That's kind of the point. While they may not have the variety of name brands like a Shop Rite might, they definitely have what you'll need for a basic shopping trip. You may wonder, with Target upstairs having a grocery section is this really necessary? I'd say yes. While the Target grocery section is nice, I think you could use Target and Lidl together for a complete shopping trip.

This is my favorite grocery store in Astoria. I live significantly further south, but I will…read morehappily make the trip up to Ditmars to go here. First of all... they're much cheaper than other natural/organic competitors in the area. I'm looking at you, Greenbay, with your $10 vegan cashew queso... I found the same queso at Natural Frontier for $6. This is very consistent throughout all of their products. I only buy vegan groceries, which can tend to cost me an arm and a leg other places (ahem, vegan cashew queso). I've really noticed a significant amount of savings whenever I shop here! Honestly, this place is just great. It's a tiny store but they somehow manage to have a great selection and have all of my favorite brands. They have a cute juice bar in the front as well!
