Tropicana Supermarket

I have shopped here weekly for about two years now and have a few tips to pass on…read more For convenience, I would grade an "A." The store carries a basic assortment of products and is decent for many needs. This is common with all stores in Clinton being essentially a culinary desert. If you want anything that is above very basic, you'll need to do some driving to get them. For service, I would grade a "D." Just know going in that customer service is not their thing. Their in-store customer service is on par with WalMart, don't ask them to do anything because you will get attitude. Just being there in their space is enough to irritate them. If you are a white person (especially male), be careful who you go to for check out because there is a particular group of people who have ALWAYS treated me with disdain. They will be rude, will be rough with your groceries, and treat you like you are sub-human. (You will quickly and painfully learn which group to avoid, they are incapable of treating all people like people.) I tried to reach out to Food Lion in general to address the issues, didn't want to go public, but in order to do so they asked for my address and phone number. Definitely not going to happen so here I am. I tend to look at Yelp reviews before checking out a place.

Their wing bar is great! They have the best produce in town. The service is wonderful. The store is…read morevery bright and clean. The staff is also friendly and helpful.

Meanwhile there's a line at every cash register that is open and then you had a nerve to ask me. How was my service today? What service?

The past 2 times I've stopped at the deli. I've stood there waiting to be acknowledged while the…read moreemployees saw me and carried on with their business. The last time i just left. This time I stayed until someone finally told someone else that I was waiting. Then the employee comes from the back with already gloved hands and starts making my food. The gloves were never changed, hands never washed. I watched her make my plate making sure she didn't touch my food with those gloves. By the time I got home and sat down to eat I couldn't do it, just thinking about what she could've been doing in the back with those same gloves on, cleaning, taking out trash, anything! I just threw the whole plate away. I should've said something while my plate was being made and I didn't so i blame myself too. Regardless, I'm going to choose not to eat there again.

It's a mom & pop place off the beaten path, but not so far off the interstate that fellow lovers of…read moreroad trip Yelp Roulette can't stop and get full as a tick on soul food. Being a fan of non-chain local spots, all of them have their quirks and this one's is pretty simple: They have 2 front doors yet one is the entrance and one is the exit. Both are clearly marked and steps from each other; impossible to miss. Upon entering, you seat yourself, a friendly waitress takes your drink order then its on you to lay back your ears and dive in the buffet. Next nifty quirk are the buffet plates: Real glass, y'all! Plenty of places claim to have soul food but how many of them serve up food on proper plates with proper utensils?! As you can see from my plate, all the bases are covered and you won't leave hungry. Trout, fried chicken, baked chicken, sketti, Mac & cheese, slaw, tater salad, collards, black eye peas, taters and gravy... Now unlike most places I must admit, if you have it in you to do so -leave room for desert!- I didn't get a pic of the 2 different types of cake I ate so someone else can brag on those after taking my advice to stop on in. I even joked that the reason we can't have places like this in the city is because people like me would order a coffee and pay for the buffet, but simply sit and eat a little over a quarter of one of those splendid cakes : D
