Madras Groceries - A One-Stop Shop for All Your Needs!…read more We've completely shifted our grocery shopping to Madras Groceries because it has everything you could possibly need. The store is always filled with fresh fruits and vegetables, along with a wide range of well-known Indian masala brands and exotic rice varieties. A few years ago, the shop wasn't as impressive, with many empty racks, but now it's fully stocked and provides excellent customer service. The only reason I visit other Indian grocery stores is to buy poultry and meat since Madras Groceries is a vegetarian shop. Otherwise, I have no reason to go elsewhere. Plus, it's very close to my home, making it super convenient!

Have been to several Indian grocery stores in the Bay area and also in other parts of the country…read morebut this one (Coconut Hill Fremont) gets the 5 stars for filthiness and poor customer service- the floors are sticky, dirty and the tiles are coming apart, the shelves in the store are not arranged, a small crowded space where people bump into you, with some vegetable and produce are not fresh and without any prices on their products. And I was charged extra for an item- got a jalebi box but they charged me extra that was the price for the cashews. This is how customers gets charged as there are no prices on the products. Had visited this store about 6-7 years ago and had the same experience but thought this time it must have changed, instead it's gotten worse! And the worst is the lying from the lady cashier, she first quotes a price and then doubles the price again when I asked for the first price. I had my 2 adult children who also heard her say the first price and later lies about it and cooks up a story for the doubled price. After this bad experience, we went over to another store, Trinethera (which I believe was before a Coconut Hill Store and it was good then) that was cleaner, and had clear pricing on their products and all neatly placed on the shelves! We are done going to this Coconut Hill store!

The new management has clearly put effort into improving the shopping experience, and it shows. There's a better selection of products, especially in Pastry that standout areas like fresh produce, household goods, specialty items.

I really wanted to love this place because it's so well-kept, which isn't always the case with…read morelocal grocers. The meat counter is definitely a plus, too. Unfortunately, the quality of the perishables just isn't there yet. The vegetables aren't nearly as fresh as what you'll find down the street, and the hot food consistently looks unappetizing like dry chicken curry and over-fried okra. It's a nice place to grab your spices and lentils, but skip the takeout for now.

We really enjoyed the cheese, meat was decent, and spinach was good as well. As soon as you walk into the store, you smell the fatayer which was very nice. The service was okay- I was expecting a hospitable/friendly service that I normally experienced from Arab markets. I wish they sold manaeesh or sfeeha but when I asked they said they don't make them.

If I had to make a "gems of Fremont" or even a "gems of the Bay Area" list, this place would be…read moreamong my top picks. Why? Because you can't get freshly baked Middle Eastern / Levantine pastries just anywhere in the Bay! If you've been to a Yemeni coffeeshop in the Bay Area, especially if it's in the East Bay, you might have seen this bakery's fatayer and manakeesh sold there since they supply a bunch of the coffeeshops. They bake all day and you can stop by at any given time and find freshly made pastries sitting on the table by the bakery section. In terms of selection, they generally have different types of fatayer (spinach, beef, chicken, cheese, more recently potato), manakeesh, lahm bi ajeen (soft flatbreads with a meat and tomato mixture on top), and chicken musakhan rolls. They don't always have every item available but they'll let you know what's in the oven. The pastries are 6 for $15 currently. They freeze well too. I've been here often and the customer service has always been friendly.

I have been a customer for 10 years or so. The quality of the meat, my primary item for purchase,…read morehas always been good. However, in the past couple of years or so, the customer service has been pretty bad. The guy at the counter has been very unhelpful and it has always appeared that he does not work there of his own free will. In the end, I go tired of the attitude/customer service and avoided the store since the past 6 months. I made a mistake last week and went back. I ordered a goat leg, which the butcher showed me (it was wrapped up). He weighed it and asked me if it was OK. I agreed and he started to work on my order. The cutting area is behind the counter and it is not possible to see what happens in that area. After the item had been bagged, he came out and handed me the shopping bag, for which I paid at the checkout counter. Imagine my surprise when I opened the package after reaching home. Instead of 100% leg meat, there was a large amount of ribs, which is far cheaper than goat leg, that had been mixed in. This has created two issues; First, I did not get what I am very specific and picky about. Second, it shows dishonesty, which is unacceptable. This business has lost my business as I have no plans to return.
