I've been a loyal Lidl customer for over two years, doing all of my grocery shopping at the…read moreMontgomery Village location. Sadly, the experience has been getting worse, and today was the final straw. Cast iron sets were clearly advertised at $14.99 on a shelf with multiple price tags. Several customers, including myself, picked them up expecting that price. At checkout, however, the cashier refused to honor it and tried to charge over $40 per set--almost triple the advertised price. She claimed they were "misplaced by another customer," which made no sense given the organized shelf and the fact that multiple shoppers were misled in the exact same way, all lining up at the same cashier one after the other. When I asked for a manager, two employees presented themselves as managers. One walked away when shown the display, and neither offered their names or resolved anything. After I pressed further, the cashier admitted that those individuals were not managers at all--only regular employees. It was only then, after wasting significant time, that she offered to call the real manager. This was not just about one product--it was a clear case of misleading advertising and employee misrepresentation. Both actions are prohibited under: * Federal law: The Federal Trade Commission Act (15 U.S.C. §§ 41-58), which bans deceptive or misleading advertising. * Maryland law: The Maryland Consumer Protection Act (Md. Code Ann., Com. Law § 13-301), which prohibits unfair, abusive, or deceptive trade practices, including false or misleading representations of fact and failure to disclose material information. The refusal to honor the posted price, combined with impersonating management, reflects a serious disregard for customers and for the law. Be warned: this store engaged in misleading advertising, and multiple shoppers were misled today.

They have a nice big garden center but don't take care of it. Most of the plants were dead, dying, or desiccated. Plants that should not take full sun are baking in the sun. Thousands of dollars worth of dead plants and shrubs were shrink-wrapped on metal racks and set to the side of the building so carelessly. No registers outside even though there's a big sign that says PAY HERE. There is never more than one register open but many employees walking around. Help the cashier out!

On multiple occasions, I've bought items only to get home and find them expired. Not by a few days,…read morebut several months. The last straw for me was when I bought a brick or cheese that had expired 4 months ago! Every time I have this experience, I bring it to the attention of a manager and they all just shrug it off. There is clearly NO quality control, the store is usually very dirty, restrooms are gross and it's just overall a poorly run store. I'll be going to the giant from now on!

The purpose of pick up is to have a faster shopping experience and for convenience. It was none of the sort. Using the app I checked in to say I was here. No employee came to my car.

This hasn't been the case recently, and particularly today when I was spoken to very rudely and dismissed with the words 'call you Doctor'!! I was calling with questions regarding a new RX that did have any information or instructions included. The question was simple and something I need to know prior to taking one of the tablets. TOTALLY reconsidering not only this pharmacy, but this Giant as well. Unlikely I'll get a response or satisfaction based on chronic rudeness and dismissive behavior. Only doing the most perfunctory job of customer service. I no longer recommend.

Some were good, others were just okay. Here is what I got: CHINESE BROCCOLI - some were long, and others seemed like they were already cut short. I don't know if that is how it is normally sold. Goya PLANTAIN CHIPS - the chips were light overall, but slightly salty. I still enjoyed it. 80% COCONUT WATER WITH PULP - I enjoyed this, but I am not sure I would get it again. I couldn't find a brand on the can and some of the wording said to chill before drinking, but yet it was stocked on a shelf. I may just stick to a brand I know, next time. I also got another juice - Mogu Mogu LYCHEE JUICE with bits of the fruit in the drink, but found that the lychee bits were going down my throat quicker than I had a chance to eat them (not sure I'll get that again even though I enjoyed the drink). BUTTER CREAM BREAD - even though I liked this, it was not as soft. I got one or two other items, but I'll probably get them elsewhere next time due to the high price. Overall, I saw so many flavors and varieties of things. The place stayed busy. I would probably go back again, but with the same friend, and maybe pay more attention to details. It was my first time going to this type of store.

Going downhill. Carts are old and rusty. Store is cramped. No real hot food option (quality and…read morevariety both declining). Seafood section smelled fishy (compared to 99 Ranch and Whole Foods). The upside is they stock fresh kumquat, that's a rare find. The prepared food section: They have only one pot of tofu stew believe it or not (it's the mainstay of Korean food). The place just looked sad and not well stocked. Not many snack options either.

We happened to be in the area and found this place to be intriguing, so we decided to stop in and…read moresee what there is. As the name suggests, there are specialty food items from all over Europe. While I saw some things like English teas, German cookies, and a few Greek items, it seemed like the majority of the offerings were from Eastern Europe. I think over half of the products had labels in Cyrillic alphabet with no translation on them in any fashion, so some things you just gotta know what it is or ask the staff. I saw a lot of things from Georgia and Ukraine, but I think I saw other products from that region (Russian, Lithuanian, Macedonian, etc.). The staff were very friendly, and cheerfully assisted me with some of the pastries we purchased. One had a nice balance of flaky pastry and fruit filling while the blintzes seemed a bit underwhelming. I also picked up a bottle of dessert wine and Children #1 and #2 picked out some candies that caught their eye. The inside is clean and somewhat small but easy to navigate. There is music playing (I don't know what language; I want to say Russian but in today's climate that could be a charged statement. Just want to say it positively adds to the vibe). Worth checking out, if you want to explore a product you might not otherwise be exposed to or if you want to find a specialty European item that you've been missing.

Then the Deli was situated way at the back of the store on the right side, a littlr far away. The sandwiches and pre-made salads werr not that noticeable either. They had very limmited stock when it came to the ready made sandwiches. I only saw Italian and roast beef sandwiches which didn't seem appealing. I did end-up getting the chickrn caesar wrap combo which included chips and a soda drink. I thinkbthe accesibility of things with this store was not the beat.

The one difference this time, they put up the glass border, we no longer able to self serve our own fish, instead you take a number, waiting to be called and they ask what you wanted. I honestly prefer it that way too! And last but not least, dim sum, and hot food bar located in the food court on the back. Would come here occasionally to pick up items from there during lunch time.

Nice Christmas tree in front of the bakery, and good variety of different Asian breads.

Sri Lankan cuisine is a niche. There is one restaurant in Northern Virginia, but other than that,…read moreyou'd have to go a long way. This place is a very modest grocer that also offers buffet-style food to go. I arrived to be greeted by a fairly regular-looking American dude who explained to me that his wife is Sri Lankan and does all the cooking. The spread of fresh food was impressive. I got okra, green beans, stewed banana blossom, mango curry, and some kind of South Indian pickle. It was a colorful bowl and a dynamic array of flavors. And while I eat a ton of Indian restaurant food, I also get home-cooked meals in this idiom on occasion, and the food here definitely has that kind of taste. Tangy, spicy, but not overly oily. Having said that, I came hoping for some appetizers to go like samosas or vadas, which maybe they sometimes have but did not have much of when I arrived. The market aspect had a few interesting sauces and frozen goods but not a lot to be worth a trip. I was happy I got what I got.

They rarely answer the phone, you can't leave a message, and when someone finally does pick up, you're immediately put on hold indefinitely. I called 24 hours in advance to cancel a small order I had placed the day before, as any responsible customer would. After three attempts with no voicemail option, the owner finally answered, only to put me on hold even after I clearly said I needed to cancel the order. Then, the next day, she called back just to berate me for not calling again! Absolutely no respect for the customer's time. How does that make sense? You have time to call and lecture a customer, but not to set up a voicemail, take messages properly, or learn basic customer service etiquette? This kind of unprofessional behavior might fly elsewhere-in an another part of the world. but not here. As a small business, you'd think they'd value and respect the few loyal customers they have. Sadly, that's not the case
