The best sandwiches ever! My friend raved about their food to me so I had to go try it and it did not disappoint. Will go back if I'm ever in town again! read more

They have mostly everything I would need. It's just not well organized. I've learned where things are just by going often, but if I need something I don't normally get, I really have a hard time finding it. The deli is a great add, but not a quick grab. read more

Without even shopping here, you can bet I never will. Price gouging is a terrible practice. Herr's Restaurant Style Tortilla Chips 12oz. The price everywhere = $3.88. Murray Avenue Kosher price = $5.59. I don't believe anything is worth a 36.11% mark up. Greed is a bad thing. read more

I am visiting from out of town and checked out Murray Ave Kosher. I can't get kosher deli so I was looking for a special treat. I ordered a corn beef sandwich and the corn beef was incredibly tender. Unfortunately, it was also incredibly bland. The price was decent but the sandwich wasn't the piled high corned beef sandwiches I'm accustomed to. We got a container of chopped liver, and it also was incredibly bland, with a serious lack of salt and onion. Guess what, the potato knish was also incredibly bland. There was a lack of salt and The knish didn't seem to have any sour cream or cheese and was super dry. read more

Wonderful management, Very helpful and generous. The staff will do everything to provide you with the best service and shopping experience - love this place read more

Nice inexpensive place to come purchase some Kosher delites. We stopped here and got some lunch to eat, and than did a little grocery shopping to take back to our hotel room. Store was clean with lots of fresh produce, and fresh meat deli area. Nice owners and staff. We were happy with all of the fresh fruits and meats. WIll be a go to place of mine, whenever in town. read more

First time shopping here and I was concerned given reviews I had read about service and cleanliness. Store was cleaner than Trader Joe's and giant eagle. Product selection was diverse and shelves well stocked. When I had a question about a product they were more than happy to help! Definitely recommend shopping here for kosher groceries! read more

Murray Avenue Kosher I really the only Kosher supermarket around. It is on the small side as far as supermarkets go. They only carry kosher foods and items. I found the prices to be higher than the Giant Eagle across the street. If you have to have kosher then this is the place you have to go especially for meats and stuff. I am not a big fan of kosher but when my daughters come to visit I have to shop there. There is no customer service so if you are looking for something you are basically out of luck. I was there yesterday and they already have a huge passover section set up, more than half the store is set up for strictly passover items. I would go there again. If you are in the need for a strictly kosher supermarket then Murray Avenue is the place to go. read more

Being the only kosher grocery in the area, MAK aims to please their customers. They recently expanded the store and added much more variety to accommodate the growing community. Their meat and dairy products are always fresh, as well as their bakery goods, and if they don't have what you're looking for they will do their best to order it. Pesach time is especially well stocked for those who follow different customs. Last and far from least, the kosher wine selection is expansive and reasonably priced. I have to say that the staff is always helpful and cheery. Glad that MAK is a part of the Pittsburgh community. read more

Picked up our holiday comfort foods and then some. The imported sweet gefilte fish was just right, not too sweet. Hanukkah gelt galore. Their challah was 1/2 price on Sunday but I had no immediate need for French toast. Enjoyed turkey pastrami for sandwiches. They added more floor space so there's a lot of stuff t choose from. It's not close to us but always enjoy the experience read more

Kosher in the house!

There is no doubt that Baltimore is an epicenter of Jewish life. This translates to a plethora of shopping options for those keeping kosher. However, for those who enjoy a partaking in fromage with kosher rennet are out of luck. The best you can do is a brick of waxy orange Miller's cheddar. So, it was to my great delight when my friend took me to Murray Avenue Kosher. It's not the flashiest of markets, but it certainly has a wide assortment of products for a relatively small Jewish community. I bought the following items which I have not yet found in my hometown: Cheddar - England Brie - Quebec Kashkaval - Bulgaria Olive tapanade (super hard to find kosher) - Israel Fig preserves - Israel Pesto - Israel read more

I went here for chopped liver. I also bought wonderful bagels, something called beoli's I think. It's a bagel type thing with cooked onions in it. LOVED THEM. I also got matzo balls, chicken noodle soup & chick pea salad. It was all great. Worth the trip. read more

Great food; nice people. My sister was recently housebound, they went out of their way to put together low sodium meals and deliver them. Thanks for the Mitzvah! read more

This is a decent place to get all of our Kosher food for Passover. It was much easier this year to get the meats that we wanted for the Seders, but they still lack an array of different meats other than beef and chicken. They change everything over for Passover pretty early so it is easy to get stocked up in advance of the holiday. Overall now that I am moving here full time I will definitely be using this store for any of my Kosher needs. read more

I was in town for a convention and I was able to purchase excellent meals at a fair price for the three days I was in town. The delivery was right on time, and the packaging and quality exceeded my expectations. read more

Well, it's a Kosher market right in the 'hood so that is, of course useful and somewhat cool The checkout lady was super unfriendly, in a very unnecessary way. Sorry if I am not a regular, I am still of the tribe! read more

I bought far more than I expected, after peeking into this well-stocked Kosher grocery store. Interesting things I've not found elsewhere; some delicious Israeli products and babka from Brooklyn. Tasty (and thankfully garlic free) chopped liver; delicious chicken salad; a reasonable price on our favorite gluten free matzah Yehuda's (try the onion flavor, mmm); corned beef was ok -- not well-marbled with fat for moistness, but big wad of fat on one edge -- I'd try it again to see another cut. Deli counter clerk was very helpful and pleasant. Had lovely chat with one of the owners, Lilah. She took a break from running one of the check out registers to answer some of my questions, and trade niceties as I'm a visitor to this fair city. I mentioned that some of her gluten free items cost less than my regular market, and she said she couldn't see overcharging people just because they have a food intolerance. That's a refreshing perspective! Though you can sometimes feel like an outsider when you're not in the Orthodox garb, I felt right at home in my Reformed normal street clothes. All staff, and other customers were pleasant, as well. I would definitely shop here again. There are many more enticing things to try -- all seemed very good quality. read more

There is nothing good to say about this store except that the food is kosher. There is no customer service. In fact, most employees are down right rude. They have the attitude that they are doing you a favor to sell you kosher food - whether it is bad or good, what you need or not, just take it and thank them. Avoid if at all possible. read more

No butcherie has a very friendly staff, it's just the way it is. But I don't care...all the looks I get from the Orthodox women in their long skirts and me in my leggings and sweatshirt, won't keep me at bay. The food is delicious. Buying my food for Pesach was a cinch and instead of being starving this year I am stuffed! The Waldorf Chicken Salad is TDF and my fiance LOVES their Matzah Balls (which are ginormous). read more

Very small store. Very unprofessional. Not enough food variety. Very expensive. Very unfriendly. Very ugly cashiers who are not very helpful. They dont have a site. They are missing tons of price tags. their always closed when I seem to need them. There's no one to talk to if you have an issue. And basically just not a pleasant experience. read more

I go to Murray Avenue Kosher quite often to pick up fish, bread and on occasion the prepared deli foods which are usually high quality. The service especially at the checkout counter is not customer friendly but not intentionally rude. I really like the kosher wine section as well as the large selection of smoked fish and kosher cheeses. Be prepared to pay higher prices than at the general supermarkets ( kosher is generally more costly everywhere). While the service may not be over friendly (although I have never really had a problem) I have always found the other customers to be both polite and often friendly. read more

Murray Avenue Kosher did a great job supplying kosher food for our family. With relatives coming from Detroit, Hadera- Israel, New Jersey, Maryland, North Carolina, and eastern PA,, they made the task of hosting Thanksgiving week meals for our family members who observe Kashrut. They did a fine job getting the meals to our Monroeville hotel each day and working with the hotel to make sure everything worked well. read more

Very nice store, good selection of wide variety of kosher food (meat and milk). Prices are competitive with other large supermarket chains in the region. Will deliver kosher meals for business, which is very nice. read more

Murray Avenue Kosher, or MAK, is a great kosher store and has a wide selection of kosher items. The prices are reasonable, probably cheaper than most places in New York. There is a large dairy aisle with many gourmet cheeses available as well as kosher meats, wine, and fresh fish. The deli has many prepared classic kosher items like stuffed cabbage, matza balls, and all sorts of kugels and salads. People may stare at you if you're not from around the area, but its more likely because they're wondering if they know you from anywhere rather than any prejudice against your garb. The rude checkout lady, who's been there forever, is equally rude to everybody. Whether you're a daily customer or a stranger, she's an equal opportunity snob and will fail to greet you and grunt at you rudely for any slowness on your part. Its all part of the charm. read more
