What makes this place even more special is the genuine customer service from the staff. Everyone is so kind, and Anahit's smile is always so welcoming. The owner is very humble and truly cares about both his customers and his team. He makes sure his staff are happy, and when people are happy at their jobs, it naturally creates a wonderful experience for customers as well. Thank you for the great service, and cheers to many more happy shoppers!

We asked a few questions about the products and ended up talking with Martin for a half hour about everything from the culture to the sweets to the process of getting products from Armenia to the US. He let us sample so many things, all of which were delicious. I have a new love of JoyCo candies. Will definitely return whenever I'm in the area.

They are unmatched!

Came here on a Saturday afternoon for the first time in at least a decade. I was immediately…read moregreeted by a man with a pony tail as I went directly to the deli counter. I waited for a while and received no assistance so I asked the guy for help. The man did not speak Dutch so I explained to him what I wanted (salami deli meat). I asked him for a pound of deli meat. I went to shop around the store and noticed the fridges were empty as were the isles. After a few minutes I came back to the deli counter and found my uncut piece of meat (in tube form) placed on the weigh scale? To my dismay I asked him if he was going to cut it with the pretty slicer machine near him? I mean that's how it used to work and how it works at any other deli meat counters. As the man cut the salami I continued to shop and picked up a jar of silver onions that looked brownish ( the onions inside the jar) and I thought well maybe they are supposed to look this way. Maybe they were a different type of onions. When I thought to look for an expiration date again to my dismay I observed that it had been expired since 2023. Unfortunately I purchased extra pedas chili which looked ok but when I got home I found out that it has been expired since 2018 (please see attached picture). This wasn't the worst of it though because we found a jar of something with leafy green bits that had been expired since 2013. Yes 2013! Bro! You think I should try the chili? You think I'll survive? This place has gone to the pits. Hopefully a health inspector straightens this place out. Furthermore when I got the salami back the slices looked as if my he deli meat cutter blade was very dull.

This is the most wonderful little shop. Produce here is always beautifully fresh and they have…read moreeverything you'd ever need in a very modest space, about half the size of most Indian groceries in LA. It proves that you don't need a big place to offer everything people need for healthful vegetarian cooking. Always fresh curry leaves, ripe mangos, fresh fenugreek, nice selection of rice and dal and dry goods, the better brands of ghee, soft beautiful dates. I find that where many stores stumble this place easily succeeds. The people who work here are invariably gracious and helpful, I always feel at peace and unhurried and very kindly supported. Gentle chant music plays in the background and the feeling is nice. It always feels like a good choice to have come here. Put all this together, and I've been happy drive a little out of my way to come here for many years. Lovely people and lovely food. I hope you'll join me in supporting them.

I got 7 lbs of different mole pastes for $6 each. Outstanding! They also have beans, dried chiles, rice, spices and some limited groceries. Friendly staff too! Last night, I fixed a pound of Mole con Ajonjoly Telolopan with a quart of chicken broth and some fresh blue corn tortillas to make enmoladas. Incredibly flavorful - a smidge spicy for my family, but I loved the deep flavor with some heat.

Gino had sent him with a shopping list of Mexican ingredients that are hard to find in Seattle, and Mike found most of them right here, at Valeria's Groceries. Valeria's is a vendor in the thick of the market, where you can buy spices, chilis, beans, moles, and a whole lot more, at what struck me as very reasonable prices. Most of the products were displayed in big bulk cases, clearly labeled for easy browsing. The man working the grocery was friendly, helpful, and efficient. He got Mike what he needed and bagged it up for him right away. I love Mexican food and fantasize about making moles at home now and then, but like, my lunch today was a soup that came out of a pantry bag and a frozen Tupperware of brown rice that my mom gave me in early 2018. If I ever get motivated, though, I know I can find what I need at Valeria's.
