Owais Foods is a simple, family-owned Indo-Pak grocery store in Des Plaines that is described as a gem and a phenomenal place. It is a clean, organized, and decent store with a location that is very easy to find and convenient. The business is well stocked with aisles overflowing with items, offering a huge and wide selection of high-quality products and food. This includes multiple selections of rice and other staples, delicious sweets from Pakistan, cold cuts, and frozen goods. A key highlight is its halal meat section, featuring fresh and quality chicken, beef, and other meats, noted as the best meat selection in the Chicagoland area and the only store that has halal meat and food. Customers praise the great prices and quality products, calling it their one-stop shop. The staff is very nice, decent, friendly, and very helpful. They are always willing to help and assist customers, are knowledgeable, and can answer questions, providing great customer service. Reviews emphasize that the staff knows how to treat customers so well and that the owners are honest people. While most experiences are pleasant, some minor issues are noted, such as a smell in some parts of the place likely from the meats and occasional limits on restroom access. However, customers agree the place is definitely worth visiting. Many are glad to be regulars and would love to recommend Owais Foods to friends and family for its great service and pleasant experience.
The young lady working at Oasis Food is very nice and helpful. I would give the customer service 3 stars because of her and maybe her mom too. However, the butcher was very rude

This store has been my go-to for 10 years. The owner, a wonderful woman, consistently provides sincere advice on what to buy and how much to accommodate our guests, even when it may not benefit their business. The prices are reasonable as well.
