First of all, know that Babylon is a market that happens to make delicious food. There are about 4…read moresmall tables inside and several more outside. As far as a Middle Eastern market it's pretty typical. They make the best of the shelf space by stocking them to the max. If you've never spent time in the Middle East then it may seem cluttered, but this is normal for this type of store. There were 4 of us and we ate inside. The absolute stars of Babylon are the food and the people. The gentlemen working were very helpful with the menu and super attentive to anything we might need. They're from Kurdistan and were all very very nice. The food was wonderful. We got 2 large sample platters, large hummus, and a small tabbouli salad. One of the gentlemen heard me telling my friends how they make the Saj bread, within minutes he brought out a large fresh Saj for them to try. It was hot and amazing. All the meat on the platter had great flavor. The rice was delicious, flavorful, and extremely plentiful. The hummus was good. The tabbouli was very fresh with a nice citrus flavor. The platter came with falafel, Saj, sauces, small cups of lentil soup, plates of pickled veggies (2 types of cabbage, jalapeños), along with olives, onion, cucumbers, and lettuce. The fresh baklava was absolutely amazing. To cut the sweetness they gave us some delicious black tea to finish the meal. We all loved Babylon and will be going back whenever we're in the area.

All are welcome at this store and this is a great corner of Arabic & Middle Eastern culture in The Friendly City. Doc Chapman

Food & non-food items from many Middle Eastern & Central European countries. Prices are okay but lean towards more-than-affordable. There are dry goods, refrigerated & frozen items and things you might need to serve all these items!

What I sought was distinctive flatbreads and some accoutrements for my foul medames, which they provided. It wasn't a place that had a lot of fresh food items, but the freezer was well stocked and it had canned goods that wouldn't be the easiest to find elsewhere. The selection was not what you'd find in a big city, but it's a good resource for this area.

This little market in the Albemarle Square shopping center represents the only place to purchase…read morefresh goat meat in Charlottesville. The goat meat I have bought from here is very fresh, tender, and of a high quality. The proprietor cuts it to order, and the price charged for the meat is quite reasonable. The store receives goat deliveries on Sundays and Thursdays, so get your meat those days to make sure they have it in stock. I haven't tried the beef or chicken they also offer here, but I imagine those meats are of an equally high quality. The store also offers a decent selection of Middle Eastern and South Asian dry goods (spices, condiments, etc), a few fresh vegetables, and some refrigerated items. The premises itself is kept very clean and the service here is always friendly and helpful. This market is thus a must visit for anyone looking to buy fresh goat meat or any enthusiast of Middle Eastern food.
