Petra is an excellent choice for middle eastern and Mediterranean grocery in the Akron area. They…read morealso have fresh halal poultry, meats, lamb, beef, etc. They pre-cut it and prepare it/wrap it for their customers to make it easy. The store offers a wide array of the usual Mediterranean and middle eastern food goods, imports, grocery, fresh meat, frozen items, cheeses, labneh, yogurt (Greek style, Lebanese, others), fresh pondered coffee beans, coffee/eat kettles, kitchen ware, pita bread bags, candy, and all the known lovely sweets (baklava, warbaat, katayef, etc). They also sell pre-packaged assorted baklava sweets, as well as imported sweets. The staff are extremely friendly and knowledgeable. The owner is very friendly and she always tries to accommodate the kitchen needs especially when it comes to fresh meat, poultry, lamb, etc. Cleveland/Akron area has a number of similar stores, but this one serves Tallmedge and Akron area which helps since there are not too many similar stores directly nearby in Tallmedge and south Akron area. If you are in the area and need some quick Mediterranean grocery flair, stop by.

This is a friendly little store that seems to be family-run (I see the same few people working…read morethere all the time). There is almost always a huge stock of Hawaiian plantains, and this is the only Asian grocery store in the area that has them. There is also a good selection of soy sauce and canned things (e.g., lychee, longan, bamboo shoots). I will say that the snacks on the shelf will sometimes be expired (I once accidentally bought a cookie package whose expiration date was a year past) and you will have to scan produce for mold, but besides some isolated cases I haven't had much experience with food from here having gone bad.

Stopped in today and they had a lot of stock for being so new. Thai, Indian and a couple other…read moreethnicities were represented. The owner was VERY nice. Took time to explain a few vegetables I was not familiar with. She also stated they are still getting in new stock but it was very well stocked. Also had silk on the roll for Indian saris. Lots of fresh veggies in refrigerators. Everything was very clean. Even high BTU gas double burners. Very impressed.

Yesterday I visited this place for the second time since the green onions at the last Asian grocery…read morestore I was at looked really old. Here there were decent-looking green onion bunches and cilantro as well as (surprise!) boba and Shan Yao (Mountain Yam). They have Stokes purple sweet potatoes and what I think are Okinawan sweet potatoes (brownish on the outside and purple on the inside). Note the difference between both of these and ube (the tree-bark-like 'potato' on the right, which I got at a different store). The produce section looked fresher than some other small Asian grocery stores in the area. They also have boba straws and cute circular cutting boards made of wood.

It has a wide selection of various Middle Eastern foods, teas, coffees, snacks, dates, etc. from many different countries! If you want something from Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Dubai, Yemen, etc., you will likely find it here! They have shelf/pantry items, fresh refrigerated foods, and frozen foods. I've been here twice and the man in charge (possibly the owner?) named Mufasa is very helpful and friendly! He will help you find anything you need! He speaks both Arabic and English. Do not be intimidated if you do not speak Arabic, it's fine! He will help you in English! They accept cash, debit, credit, and Apple Pay. They have a private parking lot in front and on the side of the store. I will definitely be coming back here!

I also bought red palm oil (which was a good find because my favorite Asian market stopped carrying it) and a gigantic container of coarsely ground black pepper. There was what seemed to be an extensive selection of meats and starchy things (different flours, pounded yams, puff puff mix) toward the back of the store. The guy at the counter asked me why I was just getting one plantain. (How many plantains is the right number? I don't know--depends on how many I already have.) He reminded me of the cashier at Giant Eagle who asked me why I was getting only sauerkraut and matcha ice cream (it was because Target didn't have those things). I'd come back for the palm oil but that was the only special thing about this store.
