“I went thru the drive thru. The people were super friendly and very helpful. All of them not just one or two are helpful and nice. That's why I keep coming back to this one.”

“I love this store. The Indian owner makes me feel at home and very very welcome. He knows who I am and knows what I want already when I walk in. I don't even have to ask. He's on top of it. Plus it's just right up the road from my house and doesent take not even a full minute to get to.”
“Used to go to this convenience store all the time when my family lived in Huntington Park (we also lived in Huntington Hills at one time). Very friendly and nice owner/workers.”
“My favorite gas station by far, Mike is the best, and I always have a fun chat with him. The young white girl who works there sucks though, and doesnt turn off the open sign or lock the door when she closes, and just allows people to walk in pick items and then tells people the store is closed despite not actually appearing to shut down the store. But apart from that, definitely recommend it.”
“Mr. Logan in the Photo Center is Absolutely Amazing. His Knowledge of this area is exceptional and he has professional Patience that is needed in every establishment that assists customers.

“Being going to this store a long time, I love these owners, they are really nice, and always have what I want when I go there, never have to run to another store.”
“Nice place staff was nice, however too many guys standing outside ready to harass you for money or cigarettes and get angry when you don't have either. Almost not worth the trouble.”
“Stephanie was very helpful. This is my first time here at in the market. She was extremely friendly. Help me find everything that I was looking for even gave me some friendly advice about the lotto.

“Wow! Jay told me this was a Small Walmart - he's not kidding! Gas, hot food, drinks, lottery, even postage stamps! Super friendly people! A very nice family business I will be back more often!”
“There's a small, locally owned place that cooks food to go called 'Soulful Eats'. It's locally owned and operated. I'm from New Orleans and just happened to stop at this gas station to fill up and get back on the road. I went to use the bathroom and of course the whiff of the food caught my nose, so I figured I'd look and see what was on the menu when I came out. It was about 11am Sunday 8 June 2025. Once I came out (yes, I washed my hands, yall- lol!) I smelled the most DELICIOUS food. I saw the sign said 'Open', so I asked a gentleman that I saw if they were open. The food was prepped and ready for serving and I assessed that I was the first customer for the day. He said something to a lovely lady who came up and greeted me. She also started showing me what was on the menu for that day. She stated that they didn't open until 12pm that day, but that she wouldn't turn anyone away who wanted a meal. I promptly thanked her and got the hamburger steak, yams, stuffing and rice. That plate was HEAVY, ya heard me?? It was smelling so good, my mouth was watering right away. I paid for the food, got in my car and drove another 150 miles before stopping and eating. I only ate half because had I ate it all, I would've been falling asleep in the car. I had a 10-hour drive ahead of me. I'm sorry I didn't take pictures, yall, but let me state this very clearly: I would DRIVE out of my way to stop there again, that's just how good the food was. If I'm anywhere NEAR that place again (an hour or so drive) I'm taking a detour and stopping there again. If I find myself about an hour away from there, I will GLADLY and happily drive that hour to and from for the food. Thank you for the awesome food and hospitality!!!⚜️⚜️⚜️⚜️”
“Every time I go in here, the lady is so nice.I'm not sure her name, but I just spoke with her again.And she is so polite. My dad lives in the area. I most definitely will be stopping in soon.”
“Erica is an amazing person she is professional and she needs a raise her service was phenomenal please take care of her she deserves the best Erica from enmarket on Russell parkway at night shift”
“I want to give a shout-out to Sabrina for her extremely amazing customer service. If I could give 10 stars, I would! Thank you so much for providing great service with a smile.”
“This is the first circle K that I was greeted when i walked in. The store was acceptably clean although the bathroom and parts of the store were seemingly aged.”
“Has a great selection of snack items, sodas of all kinds, many ice cream novelties to choose from, and three kinds of ice cream in the pint; Vanilla, Chocolate, and of course my favorite Cookies and Creme”
