“This spot says they have the best sandwiches in town. So let’s see if they’re pretty good eh or ew. Everything is made to order and They let me try their popular rays way sando. It had A crispity crunchy yet pillowy chewy bread, a TON of lightly smokey umami savory tender quality pastrami, cheesy Swiss cheese, nutty fresh lettuce, mild cucumbery crunchy pickles and like a mayoy sauce. Yall know I’m not a mayo girly but in this sando it actually worked. Things can get a bit heavy and rich cuz of all that meat which I guess is a good thing. But Overall this place is lowkey pretty good $17.99”
“I have purchased various Christian devotional books at this book center. This store/book center has various inspirational and educational Christian books and other literature”
“**warning: check your receipt!!! For the last 20 years. I have been going to EL MAMBI, they have salted pig tail, and butter beans and a lot of Goya's products, no-gas green bananas and other central Americans food. I wish they had salted mackerel. I am going to check to see if they have salted beef. They do have baccalo but not very good quality. I love their sweet potatoes, Ñame root . Thank the Lord that they are still operating in Glendale since this is the last Central American/ Caribbean market left in Glendale CA. ****Someone mentioned below that you should check your receipt before leaving and make certain that they do not overcharge you. I noticed they did that to me before seeing this warning and it was a lot about $15 overcharging me and now I truly believe that they did it on purpose, one of the female cashed me out and I noticed it was too high. She make me feel as if she did not clear the register from the last customer. But now I look back and realize by her response she knew what she did. *** Be careful when the females are cashing you out. It is just a shame to steal from your customers!!”
“This markets meats,produce,dairy products and seafood are fresh way above any other market chains thier foods are non gmo and organic but cheap for the poor customers who can't afford to buy these products without paying high prices. I don't know how and don't care how this market obtain such good food at a cheap price but I'm a loyal customer.”
“I got what I want. I love Trader Joe's, because they bringing some Turkish products. I hope they can get more Turkish products like Turkish sweet stuff like real Turkish BAKLAVA. THANK YOU.”
“Nice store and nice staff. We were looking for.some smoked salmon that was shelf stable for a long trip. Lots of options and unique things available here. Definitely check it out”
“I absolutely love Sevan Market & Fresh Produce on Colorado in Glendale! I first wandered in one day after getting my nails done nearby, and I have been hooked ever since. As a true tomato lover, I am especially impressed by their fresh, flavorful tomatoes. No bland hothouse tomatoes here—their tomatoes taste genuinely homegrown. In fact, all of the produce feels fresh and carefully selected, much like shopping at a local farmers’ market. The store also has a wonderful selection of spices, cookies, juices, pasta, and specialty products you simply do not find at the typical commercial grocery stores. Every visit feels like a chance to discover something new. Sevan Market has quickly become one of my favorite places to shop for fresh produce and unique grocery items. I highly recommend stopping by!”
“Great prices, lots of products. Friendly staff. Blend of Persian and Armenian products from deli, produce and fresh fruits and veggies to shelf stable items and pastry.”
“I wish I had discovered this place sooner. Every visit is a pleasant experience, starting with the cashier who is consistently friendly and welcoming, along with the rest of the staff. If you’re looking for authentic, homemade Persian cuisine, this is the place to go. They prepare fresh food daily, and the appetizers are exceptional. Their menu changes daily, so please check with them for current offerings. The location includes both a grocery market and a butcher section. Their marinated kabob meat is excellent and well worth the price. They also offer pre-packaged meals for convenient, quick service. They have indoor and outdoor dining available, perfect for enjoying delicious food while brightening your afternoon.”
“I enjoy shopping at this Big square Store . The store is always well stocked, especially the meat department, which has a great selection. I can usually find everything I need in one trip. The store is clean, organized, and offers a wonderful shopping experience. Thank you to the team for all your hard work!”
“Great neighborhood market, its owned and o operated by a pair of friendly brothers and their dad. The market is always clean they keep the place well stocked so it's ready to find what you are looking for. Each product is individually tagged with a price so you don't need to find the item tag on the shelves and try and read to make sure you are looking at the right price. They also make excellent sandwiches and their pizzas I hear are really cool. Only downside is that the parking can be a little tricky as there's only street parking and only 2 cars can park in front of the store, but if you are willing to walk 10-15 steps there is plenty of street parking.I have lived in this neighborhood for nearly 30 years, and I remember this market being there when we moved in to this neighborhood. I am not sure how long this market has been there but I remember every couple of years there would be me owners as no one could run this store. They would usually start out really enthusiastic but a year or so later you would notice the same unwelcoming atmosphere, no merchandise, half empty shelves and you would hear that the market is for sale and the same story every 2 years or so until about 5 years ago these guys bought the store. They have done an excellent job of keeping the store stocked, clean, friendly, the guy asks me about my kids every time. I certainly appreciate the gesture and from my perspective they look like they enjoy their job.I strongly suggest anyone to stop by if you happened to be near but to the neighbors who live in this area we should all make an effort to do our daily shopping for groceries from the store because not only will we be helping a store in our neighborhood grow, we will also be supporting a small business and not giving our money away to large corporations. Believe me corporations like Walmart and Kroger's and pavilions. They're going to be fine. They have a very profitable business and they make millions and millions of dollars. So with us shopping from there or without shopping from there, they're going to make their money, but for small businesses, it's up to us as neighbors to make sure that the small businesses in neighborhoods like Palmer Market and Kaffeine Coffee Shop next door grow and thrive. I am sure in return these small businesses will then do their part such as sponsor youth sports trams or help elderly residents in our neighborhood who have mobility issues by making sure they have access to nutritious meals every day.”
“Haykashen Market in Glendale is a treasure! They offer a great selection of authentic Armenian products, from fresh lavash and cheeses to unique products. The staff is friendly, and the store is clean and well-organized. A must-visit for anyone exploring Armenian culture or looking for quality goods! ?? ?? ? Hayk Galstyan”
“Literally the best carne asada and pollo asado I've ever had! Price is excellent and lots of other odds and ends to complete any dish you are making. Super friendly staff”
“Awesome local store that has a huge variety of stuff for sale including lottery. The drive thru is a super convenient plus that I really didn’t take advantage at first but now I love it. Whenever I’m on the area and need a drink this is my go to spot. If you are ever in Glendale you know where to go for the best snacks”
“Glenoaks Meat Market got the best marinated meat ? for BBQ, they got really good koobideh meat, Kabab, lamb chop, chicken kobab and a lot of other good stuff !!! They also got fresh vegetable and bread !!! If you live in the 818 area this is the place where you get your meat from !!!”
“Always clean, small grocery store. Always fully stocked. Fresh groceries, dairy, eggs, deli counter, dried and canned foods, bread, etc. Convenient and has parking in back”
“The customer service at your store is outstanding—everyone is always friendly, helpful, and genuinely attentive. It makes a huge difference and keeps me coming back.”
“Guerrero Market & Take Out is a lovely, local, Latine owned small business with excellent food - especially the pupusas ? go there for breakfast or lunch and you’ll see it’s a favorite spot for locals. They also have standard grocery selection at fair prices. Maria the owner is a great person deserving of our support ?”
“Very nice people and very helpful. Always offer to carry the heavy groceries to the car. Been shopping here for years. I love that it's right down the street and it's easy to go in and out quickly.”
“Nice small grocery store. I bought an Adjarakan Khachapouri. It wasn't like other Adjarakans, but it didn't taste bad. Just not a regular Adjarakan. Probably one reason was that the dough wasn't the correct one, it was more of baguette dough. But it was filled well, and proper price.”
“This is one of the cleanest grocery stores I’ve ever visited. The store is always spotless, well-organized, and easy to shop in. The staff is incredibly kind, friendly, and always willing to help you find exactly what you need. They genuinely care about providing great customer service and make sure every customer feels welcomed and assisted. Shopping here is always a pleasant experience, and I highly recommend this store to anyone looking for a clean, organized, and customer-focused grocery store.”
“Very friendly little bodega. It seems like the same guy is always working whatever time I go there! Mostly I buy lotto tickets here because if I win I want them to share in my good fortune.”
“Great little neighborhood convenience store. The staff are super nice with awesome customer service. The store itself is kept very clean and the owner is working hard to update some of the older aspects of the location. Prices are slightly higher, but again this is a privately owned neighborhood convenience store not a discount store. They actually carry items you cannot find at other establishments.”
“I really enjoy shopping at Ani Grocery. They have a great selection of fresh and high-quality products, especially when it comes to specialty and international items. The store is always clean and well organized, and the staff is friendly and helpful. While some prices might be slightly higher compared to larger chain stores, the quality definitely makes up for it. You can tell they prioritize freshness and good products. It’s a reliable neighborhood market and I’m always happy with what I find there.”
“Still friendly staff i think any down grades I've seen (less selection higher prices) is a coast to coast thing not just an issue with this store. New note: they often only have 1 or if your lucky 2 cashiers working. Lines do form.”
“Great place to shop for veggies, snacks, frozen food, and unique flavors of ice cream. They also have an awesome wine selection. Aisles are neat and organized. Lines are short, always a space in the parking lot. Recommended !!!!”
“Referred to this store by my neighbor for some authentic Armenian and Russian groceries. Can't believe this place has been here for like 30 years and I didn't know about it. Super cool spot with a lot of really great middle eastern, Russian, and I guess Ukrainian products. They've got all the regular grocery items but they've also got a bunch of stuff that I didn't know existed. Huge selection of chocolates, spices, deli meats and cheese, a bunch of desserts, caviar, canned foods, a bunch of different breads from all over the world. Pretty cool - I would definitely suggest taking a look at this place. Staff was nice, super warm atmosphere, and I think one of the older guys that was working there might have been the owner. Not sure but everyone was cool. I went in around 10:00AM and they weren't super busy so that might be a good time to go.”
“exceptional persimmons & spectacular giant dark red pomegranates.this little produce market stocks consistently fine produce, unlike the mediocre offerings at von's & trader.'nuff said.”
“Super convenient with the essentials for healthy cooking. I bought fresh ginger and Ali Baba yogurt for less than 4 bucks and the ginger was super fresh and moist (ginger is like the canary in the coal mine of produce since it can easily be too dry or so moist it starts too mold). I love these little markets. They cater to the high standards of the middle-eastern grandma who knows how to pick produce.”
Walmart wants your groceries at the door before the ice cream softens. On May 29, the retailer said its 30-minute-or-less delivery had reached 33 U.S. markets, adding a wave of new cities across the Northeast. Shoppers in those areas can order from more than 100,000 items, everything from fresh produce and baby formula to pet food, electronics, cold medicine, and prescriptions. Behind the scenes, the service leans on Walmart's store network and an algorithm that factors in order size, available drivers, and distance from the store.
Trader Joe's keeps adding stores, and shoppers keep showing up. The California grocer has marked nine more locations as "opening soon," pushing its expansion into new corners of the country. The grocer also took first place in the American Customer Satisfaction Index's 2026 supermarket rankings. It has held a spot near the top of that list for years.
Target is rolling out its most ambitious store overhaul in more than ten years, with plans to remodel over 130 locations and open 30 new stores across the country this year. The retailer is also putting money into supply chain technology upgrades to keep pace with how shoppers buy today.
Kroger is spending $112 million to build two new stores and renovate 15 existing locations across central and northwest Ohio. The company calls it a "record-breaking" commitment to the region. The two new Kroger Marketplace stores will rise in Canal Winchester and Delaware, Ohio, each costing roughly $30 million to build. Kroger broke ground on the Canal Winchester location on March 19 at the southeast corner of Diley Road and Greengate Boulevard. The 118,000-square-foot store is expected to open in late fall 2026 and will create around 250 jobs.
Loblaw Companies Limited is putting serious money into its retail network this year. Canada's largest food and pharmacy retailer announced it will spend $2.4 billion in 2026 to open new stores, renovate existing locations and strengthen its supply chain. The company plans to open 70 new stores in 2026. That includes 34 Shoppers Drug Mart and Pharmaprix pharmacies and care clinics, along with 31 hard-discount No Frills and Maxi grocery stores. On top of the new openings, Loblaw will renovate another 191 stores and continue construction on a roughly 1.2 million-square-foot automated distribution center in Caledon, Ontario.
