My favorite store in Sheepshead area. Seafood, chicken and beef are always fresh and affordable…read more Fruits and vegetables are much cheaper than in other local stores. Cashier workers are fast and friendly.

Oh how I adore this little store, what a gem!…read more Walking in here you will find a decent selection of bread but the reason I come here so often is the selection of meat. Any cut of beef you could want. Ground beef as well. And if you don't see your cut of meat, just ask the very helpful people behind the meat counter. They will cut it for you! And if you are in need of a recommendation, they will offer it to you, from grilling to pan cooking. They also have chicken, as well as hard to find items like chicken hearts, liver, and brain. Yes I said brain, as in sheep brain. On the other side of a quite impressive spice section they have bass filets, tilapia, and a whole host of fish. Every time I have gotten fish here it is fresh and delicious. They also have a nice selection of frozen foods as well as dairy, and standard grocery items. This place is a delight every single time. The registers are quick and yes, they accept credit cards too! Check them out, it is definitely worth it!

I was quite surprised as I strolled by at 11:30 and was so curious from the great fruit and vegetable selection outside, I had to take a gander inside. Outside was more of interest to me, as my jaw dropped due to the pricing structure. In my neighborhood of Forest Hills, you couldn't buy rotten fruit and vegetables at these prices. Fourty nine cents a pound for a third of Mazals offerings? Unheard of in most every neighborhood regardless of ethnicity. As I was in route to meet a my girlfriend, I only could explore for a few moments. So with an open handed upward thrust, I bagged two handfuls if pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and peanuts. Once I was rung up my bill was $5.25. Open 24 hours!

After hearing all the good things I decided to surprise my wife on a special occasion with her…read morefavored "Cheese Cake". All was good until I got home and my wife steamed " this cake is as hard as a rock". Of course it was since it was a frozen cheese cake. I called to tell them what I had brought home and the lady who answered did not say what any reliable business person would say. I expected her to " I'm sorry" or " come back we will get you a fresh one". Nope. In a not very nice tone, she said. " I'll let them know". I wrote a review to them but it was posted since I mention a place where the cheese cake was delicious.

I think I just had some of the best Baklava in the US. Now, I haven't been fortunate enough to…read moreactually go and eat at this place, but I picked up their small box of Baklava from the local Halal grocery store, and I'm totally impressed, I must say. I can only imagine how fresh it'd be at the bakery, YUM!!! It was just sweet enough to make it perfect, unlike some of the other places where you'd be diabetic if you ate their Baklava often. I know I'm getting another box pretty soon, a bigger one this time :)

In the passage of my travels, my family and I succumb to purchasing fruits. Amid Circus Fruits…read moredoes have a good selection fruits and vegetables, I prefer Three Guys From Brooklyn whom is a 24/7 open-air market with an emphasis on fruits & vegetables, plus a full range of grocery items. We decided to purchase kiwis and strawberries. The strawberries were delicious. Customer service is non-existent as the staff as robotic stolid circus-style cashiers, but if one who requires assistance as attaining an very high elevated item outside of your reach - no one can assist you. Circus Fruits is usually less crowded unlike their rival Three Guys From Brooklyn. Ergo, I have been to the circus in Brooklyn today to purchase fruits! However, this circus does not contain animals nor clowns who entertain customers, but are apathetic and stolid to the core. I rather see Three Guys From Brooklyn than go to this mediocre circus!!

I went here about a week ago and I was surprised by the variety of produce there. Everything is…read moreorganized outside and the pricing was reasonable. Inside is just like a regular grocery store. I bought some eggs, bread, and snacks. There are only about 3 cashiers, which made the checkout process slower. I will be shopping here more often for produce!

I feel very lucky to have this green grocer a mere 3 blocks from my house…read more Obviously a bodega that has grown to the demands of the changing neighborhood. Recently remodeled and slightly expanded, making room for more produce and dry goods. cheap fresh produce (way better than the C-Town down the street), $1 baskets of handmade firm tofu, and a fair selection of juices and canned goods, bulk nuts and snacks. They also have a growing cheese and fancy meat section but I don't eat those items, so whatever. complaints: - no soy yogurt although they have plenty of soy milk and other veggie/vegan products - lots of the stuff in their freezer case looks like it comes pre-freezer burnt. yuck, warm that thing up a little guys, I don't want an Amy's burrito covered in snow. - standard selection of crappy bodega flowers.

I love stopping by these fruit stands whenever I'm in lower Manhattan. They have seasonal produce…read moreand tropical fruits that I crave throughout the year. This time I picked up some sapota or sapodilla. I used to eat this fruit back home in India but now that I live here is nice to know there's a place that sells them. I bought 3 lbs of fruit for $15. That seems pricey for the average Joe but these fruit are not available all the time and the quality was good so I couldn't resist.

It's lychee season, y'all!!!!! Go and get your lychees. Still kind of expensive for the small seed…read morevariety at $15 a pound. But they only last 2 weeks from today 5/24/19, so pay the money and get some fresh lychees. The bigger seeded lychees are $6 a pound, then the loose ones are 3 pounds for $10. They said the $6 a pound are sweeter than the free ones. But the small-seeded lychees are the ultimate! Best-tasting lychees-- small-seeded ones! So sweet and full of juicy lychee flavor you cannot get in a can! Also, cherries are really cheap, cheaper than at other fruit stands or Whole Foods. 2 pounds $3!!!! Last week I paid $6.99 a pound at Whole Foods. Guava $5 a pound. Nothing like a sweet guava from Taiwan. Mangoes 2 for $1. Cheaper than at Whole Foods. Bring your cash! I can easily spend $50 no problem. I saw a lady buy 6 bunches of the $15 a pound lychees. Bring yo cash. Not sure if this is the one I go to: Mullberry at Canal.

Instead I stuck to Haribo gummy snacks - i know, also shocking. Appalling even. Last week I had a craving for some fresh fruit so I stopped into the Manhattan Fruit Exchange and grabbed a pack of strawberry's and black cherry's. Strawberry's with sugar are one of my favorite snacks and these are the ripest, juiciest, sweetest strawberry's I've ever tasted. Don't be fooled by the name, Manhattan Fruit Exchange has a plethora of produce ranging from common to hard to find fruits and veggies. Things to know: The space is large and refrigerated so be prepared for the chill or bring a sweater (the workers wear sweatshirts even in the summer). Self serve. CASH ONLY.

The prices are a bit inconsistent: some of their stuff can be expensive, but much of it is pretty cheap by NYC standards.
