It tasted alright, but the structure made it a little tough to eat since the meat tended to fall out with each bite. Not a dealbreaker, just something to be aware of depending on what you order. One big plus is that they offer French fries instead of defaulting to chips, which already sets them apart from a lot of similar lunch spots. My coworker got a salad and was really happy with it, especially since you can customize it with up to six add-ins. Overall, it's reasonably priced, and while nothing blew me away, it was a good enough experience that I'd give it another try.

My quesadillas were stuffed with chicken. My fries were seasoned well. My meal came with multiple sauces including sour cream and salsa. I would definitely order this meal again on my next visit.

You walk in and have a little self-type market area and immediately to the right there are refrigerators with prepared meals to buy and take home. Straight after the Shelf section there is the butcher shop with all cuts of meats. I liked the concept where you could even pick your meats and have the chef cook them there for you and you can dine in! They also had an area for dining in and sitting at a bar. The bar had many choices of drinks and a wine section in the back to the side. There was a patio area as well. I decided to have some lunch so I got the salmon BLT which was delicious and I got the side of hot honey brussel sprouts. I ordered some lasagna to take home for a meal later. The salmon was cooked perfectly at a medium temperature and the flavoring was great. The brussel sprouts had just enough kick to them and was a great portion size for two or more. The lasagna was good and also a good size but it is a little bit spicy so if you dont like spice be prepared for a little tiny bit. All was delish.The pricing for everything is on point and not too expensive. They also have specials most of the days of the week! Peyton helped me with my to go orders and I met Ralph the owner who told me about the concept of everything. I will definitely be back and I would highly recommend! Second time back was wonderful! Sat and dined in. I got the $1 wings special with barbecue, mac and cheese, and salmon salad. The wings were jumbo size which is great because unlike other places they weren't the size of your pinky. The mac and cheese was very flavorful with the small crisp. The salmon salad was neat because it came and deconstructed segments so you could really pick which toppings you wanted on each bite. The dressing on it was amazing and so was the ranch for the wings. I was attended to by Desiah and Liam who were other so personable and lovely! All of the portions are amazing and I love it because I have food for a few days. Definitely going to come back again to try some of the new items that they've added to their menu.

As someone who…read morevalues the bang for your buck, a place that will offer you rice and three sides for less than $12 is always going to make me happy. Okay, I am not going to forget the rest of the store. Fresh International is the closest place to me that does Chinese centric groceries, which is a necessity at times. Sure, H-Mart is closer to me, but some days I just prefer using the soft Chinese tofu instead of the Korean option. Not only that, but they have a better selection of rice and other snacks and treats. There is a seafood counter, butcher, a bakery attached, and the main attraction for me, their hot bar. The hot bar is cafeteria style in which you point to what you want in front of you. There is a blend of traditional Chinese options and some other more Americanized options. They have all different types of meats, including steamed fish, pork, chicken, etc, as well as tofu and vegetable options. The most expensive option is the $10.99 rice and three options, which is already a bargain in this economy. The food itself is solid for the price, and is very fulfilling. I would totally have this every lunch! Attached to the hot bar is the Chinese BBQ section. There, you can get roast pork, duck and other fresh meats. Their roast pork with the crispy skin absolutely rocks. The meat is tender and the skin is crispy and crunchy. My only problem with Fresh International are their hours. Their hot bar closes at 6:30 PM, while the store stays open until 9. I came at 7:00 PM and they were already wrapped up! Bummer! Make sure to come at lunch while the food is hot and fresh!

Fresh International Market's hot bar has solid value, but the overall experience was just okay…read more The biggest positive is the portion size. For $10.99 (three-item plate), you get a very generous amount of food, which is hard to beat. There are also a decent number of meat options to choose from. That said, the selection felt limited for anyone going meat-free, and more importantly, the food itself lacked flavor. The mapo tofu was disappointing, and the bok choy was pretty bland. Others in our group tried the orange chicken, which was described as okay, but nothing anyone would go out of their way for. Overall, it's filling and affordable, but not particularly memorable. Good for quantity, just not quality or standout flavor.

There were two display refrigerators for meats. Hardly anything there and whatever was there didn't look good for consumption. Looked passed it's prime. It's a Butcher market... The machine used to slice meat had pieces of meat hanging out in the circular blade. There were also pieces of meat in the bottom. By the looks of it, the meat had been hanging out there for a while. They tried to clean the floor. It was a bit slippery. It was not wet. Actually felt a bit greasy. The Diet Coke I got (a can) had a fresh date of 14 Mar 22. I checked all the other 18 cans of Diet Coke in the fridge and all had the same date. Why am I mentioning this? It did not taste like Diet Coke. I still ordered what I went there for: Menudo. Taste was ok, but: I had a plate full of cows feet and some menudo. Its becoming a common practice to add them to a menudo plate. Not excited about it, but I live with it. Never before I had four pieces in the same bowl. I paid too much money for the Menudo plate I ordered. Not much menudo in there.

Easy to log your remaining steps for the day. Might be overwhelming. Yet, it needs to hold all the different product and varieties thereof! Surprising to me- the Wegmans-branded artisanal bread, frozen pizzas, kombucha, sandwiches-to-go, chocolate chip cookies, and sparkling water; regional foods; large selections of many things (100 some odd protein bars?), and a large selection of regional craft beers and ciders, to name a few. Misc: The parking lot has plenty of spaces. Check out offers both self-service and cashiers. Bring a bag or two (or 3) for your groceries or pay for the bags.

Sometimes you just need something quick and cheap for lunch, and if that is the case and you are in…read morethe mood for Indian food then Sangam Mart is certainly an option. I have not had an opportunity to venture around their supermarket so I don't know how good or bad that area is, but I've had their cafeteria food on a couple of occasions. Just to be clear, the speed and price of the food are the big positives, but it comes at the cost of quality. On my first visit, I ordered their Kongu mutton biryani and paneer tikka masala. The biryani was really dull and not very well conceived. The mutton itself was on the dry end and the spices did not pop like you'd expect in a fresh biryani. I'd say the color of the biryani itself is very telling. The paneer tikka masala was decent, but the paneer itself was really dense and chewy. I could at least enjoy the curry some, but would have liked a little more spice in that too. I came back and ordered their chicken curry. To be clear, it was labeled as "chicken curry", not a butter chicken, a korma or a vindaloo, just a curry. The flavors were Indian in nature, but not very harmonious like a well thought out curry. It was also very watery, and the chicken was dry and more bone than meat. The prices here are probably the biggest pull factor for Sangam Mart, they are the cheapest Indian spot in the area by a good bit! With such short lunch breaks and the desire to not burn through your wallet, Sangam Mart has its place. However, with so many other fantastic Indian restaurants in the area, it is hard for me to justify choosing Sangam Mart over the competition.

I am not one who typically seeks out Indian or other South Asian groceries for my household....but…read moreI am one who seeks out a place for samosas and Suvidha has been a location that I have frequented, mainly because of its proximity to where I live. Suvidha is in a corner strip mall with some accessibility issues, so it certainly can be easy to miss. It is a grocery with all sorts of different meats, produce, and other packaged goods. I can't say anything about the quality of the products, I come to Suvidha for a different reason. If you walk past the registers towards the left, you'll find a small kitchen that serves various snacks, curries and desserts. This is where I will shore up my samosa cravings. Samosas are only $1.50 a pop and they are pretty good as well. They are fried perfectly so the exterior is crisp, but the interior is warm and filled with delicious potatoes, peas and spices. I bought six one time and ate them all in one sitting, they can be so addictive! I noticed that they also had vegetable curries in the kitchen, and really cheap ones too! For $6, I could get a container of palak paneer or aloo bhindi, I could not believe it! The price, great! The quality of the curry, however, matches the price. The curries come pre-prepared and cold, so they definitely sit in refrigeration for some time. The flavors themselves are relatively mediocre, the spices don't pop and the ingredients feel low quality. If you're looking for a good curry, then a restaurant will do better. If you are on a budget and want Indian curry, then look no further!
