Hello anybody reading this. I am the “silly boy” in question in the last review response the owner did. The silly questions he’s referring to has all to do with his culture and the things he was selling which he was woefully uneducated about. With the credit limit of 10 dollars my girlfriend wanted to buy a hair dye that was 7 so I suggested we got the cheapest thing there which is a $3 bar of chocolate. My girlfriend didn’t want to support a man with such bad customer service so we walked out, not arguing but speaking about the next store we were going to go to. The next store we went to was so much more friendly and welcoming than this store by a mile, the workers there actually knowing about the products they sold. With all this being said I will end this review by saying please don’t come here and instead support Indian Grocery Store and Restaurant off Cleveland ave. Much better store and experience. This place is over priced to so please don’t waste your time.

I never leave reviews but I drove 35 mins to get here & 5 mins within being there the owner is telling me that I need to hurry up bc he has something to do. I am there to give business & I wanted to take my time to look around, I ended up going to the other indian store down the street & the customer service there was MUCH better, he helped me and even showed me around, please be kinder!!!

Amazing traditional store. All sorts of amazing foods, spices breads. Samosas to order. Vitamins, supplements, frozen foods you name it! I think the Aldi k guy has some anger issues himself. The couple that own the store talked to me for hours about my interest in culture food and health....

I love this place! I have very small wrists and they have a HUGE selection of bracelets that fit me at a reasonable price. I am getting ready to go on a trip and am headed there before I go! I can always find tops, skirts and even great music I love.Namaste ?

I’ll say that this place is okay for very basic staples if you’re in a pinch in the area. You’re not going to find fresh produce or like soya here but it has the basics covered. The rest is high sodium, prepackaged stuff in coolers.That said Bahrat provided friendly customer service, and great homemade veg samosas.The jury is still out on the $35 Sandalwood essential oil. When I looked up the exporter/manufacturer, they only sell perfume blends, not pure essential oils. It smells nice, its just not what I asked for which could have been a miscommunication.I gambled and lost with that purchase so I’ll just say buyer beware on anything behind the counter.Edited after response from owner:I asked for FRESH gajer ka halwa, thinking I’d get the stuff that comes from the confectioners near Lakeland, not the pre packaged shipped kind from the brand Nanak or whoever it was, that everyone has, which I bought anyway because I realized that I was not clear in what I requested.We also did not try the tester. We smelled it in — a metal tube and it smelled nice but that doesn’t change the fact that it is not sandalwood essential oil. We did not test the product. My husband who was born and raised in India and knows what Sandalwood should smell like was very adamant that I not purchase the sandalwood oil without being outright rude to the owner, but I didn’t listen to him because I thought he was balking at the price, not the fact that it wasn’t what we were looking for.It did not dawn on me that when someone says “do you have sandalwood oil” that they’d be handed a perfume blend. My husband knew and that’s why he gave it back to you and said no thanks, and I’m the one that insisted.You saying “they were convinced” in your response is *chef’s kiss*.

I visited Indian Bazar for a few items to make dahl....The store has a LOT to look at you definitely need more than one visit to look at everything they have....however the best part of the visit was meeting Sangite!!! Sangite provided me a tour of the store including food products in the freezers (all I purchased were delicious} BUT.....the best was the samosas that Sangite introduced me to....She makes them herself...these little pockets of deliciousness were unbelievable! She was beyond helpful and welcoming.....But those samosas.......WOW!!!!

I love this store! I recently got into cooking Indian dishes due to some recent dietary restrictions. Burt greeted me and was very kind. I told him I wanted to make some daal and he helped me pick out the right ingredients. When I returned the next week, he remembered me and asked how my dish turned out. They have a large variety of foods and tasty samosas. I plan on returning many times in the future!

My sisters and I read all the reviews and decided to shop here today. Very pleasant experience and beautiful products. Also for the 1st time in my life I got to taste Ladu. It’s delicious. We were treated very well and love the products we purchased. We did suggest that a picture of Sharukh Khan be hung though.??

I’ve been coming to this store for a decade and I’ve never been disappointed once. Everything I’ve ever purchased is of the highest quality. The owners are sweet and as a westerner I’ve been able to try many spices and Indian dishes that you don’t see in regular corporate grocery stores - as well as incense, jewelry, organic soaps and toothpaste etc. This little shop is a gem and I can’t recommend it enough

This store is wonderful! You could spend hours here browsing through the foodstuffs, clothing, knickknacks, pots and pans and bedding, I found just the bedspread and tablecloth I wanted.

Everything about this store is wonderful. The owner remembered my name on my second visit. The homemade samosas are the best I've ever had.
