“We lived next to the “little store” for 8 years “back in the day” At that time (early 2000) the owners kept it pretty basic (beer, candy, a few boxed foods) and that’s about it. Originally you could smoke inside and the couple who owned it, had a pet monkey that hung out at the register. The monkey did not smoke or make change. I always thought wouldn’t it be brilliant if someone made this a deli?!? Which is what someone did. Absolutely LOVELY business! Favorite Saturday activity is to take my kiddo on the paved trails behind the store along Line Creek/mini railroad then stuff our faces with the many amazing deli choices the “little store” has. We always take extra items back home for later but end up eating on drive home. Food items are bomb, prices are reasonable (cash discount) and the staff is really cool. Love seeing them thrive. Also love that this community said NO to the QT being put in nearby and YES to supporting this gem! I’d love to see them feature even more local items.”
“I've been going to this store for a while now and I'm surprised that I haven't done a review by now. This is a great store probably the best small halal store I've been to and I've been on the road in different states. I've shopped at many different halal stores. This is by far the best of the smaller stores.
The owners are very nice, friendly ,very helpful and knowledgeable about the store and their products. They make me feel welcomed every time I shop there. I really appreciate them so if you want some good halal food from a good halal store shop here.”
“I love shopping here in the evening right before closing. Shoppers are more easy going, while employees are frantically restocking for the next morning. I like the vibe.”
“This place is my window to olfactory paradise. The moment I walk in the door the amazing smells of spices, herbs, and excellent concoctions of spice blends puts my chefs brain into overdrive.
If I’m planning some Curry dishes or simply a steak night, I’ll make the drive here to get the freshest and great priced herb and spices I need to make the best food I can.
From snacks to drinks and little oddities you’ll find nowhere else Al Habashi has you covered.
The owner is there daily and is always willing to make suggestions or help you find what you are looking for.
They have a few people on staff who are always helpful and are very knowledgeable on the use and mixing portions of items you may need to make that special dish
I don’t even buy any supermarket spices, salts, or flavoring when I can get everything here and it’s way fresher.”
“They have most everything you're looking for as far as liquor and what goes with it. Very quick to get in and out and extremely friendly people. Really nice place. Older building but nice place.”
“Good source for healthy eating. Expensive at times but some of the better selections in KC. Most employees are cordial and greet customers unfortunately deli staff is a tad slow and is rude to you when filling deli and salad bar.”

“Very clean store, typical commissary products and prices. It is a small commissary so that's important to keep in mind before driving a long way to go to it.”
“I have every possible thing you could need that comes from asia. The fish sauce section for example is 10 ft wide great produce every kind of thing you could want all the hard to find stuff we don't come here often but when we do we stock up”
“A Michigan native every time I'm in Kansas City which is probably twice a week I have to stop here they have a very well stocked and clean store staff very friendly and anxious to help when needed”
“Good selection of clean and organic options for food. I love the bull bins. We found plenty of dye free options as well. Can’t wait to explore a few more times.”
“Small but very good selection of health oriented & vegan food options - 100% organic produce & a selection of local meat (frozen) & eggs (Barham & Campo Lindo) - a vitamin & body care section plus local kombucha on-tap! Plus Two Niles Sea Moss! Great knowledgable & friendly staff...”
“Sprouts always have the best deals in the back by the bathrooms, on sale items for up to 75% off. You can find a lot of good snacks here for next to nothing, the store overall is pricey, but if you go at the right time. Those manager specials are very nice!”
“This is one of the best Hispanic grocery markets I have been to it is very clean well-stocked and if you ask questions they help you out both speak English and Spanish”
“They have so many different foods to choose from. Their meats that they have available is incredible and it seems like they carry German made foods there too! Don't forget your quarter to get a shopping cart! I believe their prices beat Walmart, price chopper, Hy-Vee, and sun fresh. Recommend you to explore this place to what they have”
“While I walk by many businesses, like this one that services our Latin, Spanish-speaking community. I was asked not to enter. They are great people give them a try.”
“A good variety of fruits and vegetables. The corn was sweet, much more flavorful than what you get at the store. The Bing Cherries were big and fat and SO good! You might pay a bit more here but it's so worth it!”
“I love shopping here. I love all of the staff, they have the most eclectic staff North of the river, And I love every single employee who works there. They're all friendly, every one.
When they have a great deal, they have a great deal! A lot of their deals are the same kind of deals that you will find at Price Chopper in their weekly ads, except a lot of their not-on-sale stuff is less expensive than Price Chopper.
I usually come in on my way home from working the night shift for the deli chicken because it's just so delicious and it's only $7.99 for four legs and four thighs. ?
It is really good chicken, in my opinion, and you can't beat the price. Even if they have to raise it a dollar or two soon because of the economy, I will still buy it, and it will still be worth it. (Go get it now while it's still $7.99. Before tariffs take full effect in the coming weeks.)
But today I came in a little bit early, too early for the deli to be opened (it opens at 10:00 a.m.,) so instead I bought some of the day old/leftover chicken at a discount, and also decided to try the hamburgers with cheese in the discount/cold deli section, (Right next to the deli counter and salad and produce,) because I needed a quick meal. (they also sell fresh cheeseburger patties, and they off buns and condiments and everything.)
I seriously was not expecting much from leftover hamburger patties, I tend to like mine fresh and pretty rare. However, I have a lot of work to do today and I really needed something quick.
Oh. My . Glob. ???
I nuked one for 30 seconds and threw it on a big piece of lettuce with ketchup and mustard and mayo. And my eyes rolled into the back of my head and I did that "oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh" happy dance that people do when something is really, really, really good... THAT'S how good it was. it tasted like I went to somebody's barbecue and they were a good cook and didn't totally burn my burger to a charcoal looking crisp.)
Day old. Nuked.
How? HOW? how is a day old hamburger patty THAT good? I feel like I'm losing my mind. ?
Anyhow, the chicken and the burgers and deli food are really good. They are good even if they are a day old. But they're really awesome fresh.
The weekly ad deals are awesome.
But I think I like the people the best. The shy ones, the ones that are always so busy but they still say hi. Everyone.
The store is not in my neighborhood, but I love stopping there a few times a week after work.
It's on the corner of Brighton and Parvin.
You can take the Searcy Creek exit on 210 and take the idyllic drive northward on Searcy Creek Parkway to get there easily. (Take a left on Parvin Rd. It's on the corner of Parvin and Brighton. )
It's worth making it a trip on your way home if you live in the Northland or Gladstone, or anywhere north of the river.
And please tip whoever is working in the deli if you like the food. They're not expecting 40% or anything- They aren't expecting anything. They actually get embarrassed by it - It's just nice to do.
Especially if you find yourself saving money from going to Popeyes or Church's or KFC or having a barbecue outside to have one or two burgers or ribs. (Oh yeah, also, I had butterfly shrimp the other day... It was really good, and a great price!) A lot of the deli items are really good. Chicken tenders. Pastas. Mexican dishes. Barbecue. You're not going to find a better price anywhere for food this good.)”
“I was presently surprised at their hot food items!! The grilled chicken and spicy roasted potatoes!!!!!!!!! I come just for THAT.... Even tho I end up paying $28 for enough dinner for my daughter and I.... But pricey but when I'm pressed on time, they always have my go to!”
“I suggest to anyone that has to do a little bit of grocery shopping and close around the Sun Fresh grocery store in the Westport area you would not have any complaints but good ones”
“Can’t say enough good things about this gem of a market! We stopped in before a massage across the street and Christine was so caring, welcoming and helpful!! Susan was so friendly at checkout and we also met some other really nice customers! Highly recommend this place for their customer service excellence!!”
“great me gave customer service and the cashier their named jaden was very helpful and always had a smile on his face, great prices and just overall a great place!”

“The one in liberty if you go later in the day isn't as busy get in and out and it's not as hot outside to go run errands at nite,went around 7 so it was perfect.”
“Very cute store. Didn't have everything I needed but did have a lot. I was also intrigued at what they did have. I'm assuming a lot of things native to India. They had toys, alcohol, food, and smokes. It looks like they had some hot and ready meals too. Didn't get any but looked really good.”
“What can I say I love Aldi,. When I have time I love to shop the specialty aisle there's always something I like
But even better than that they have great food I feel good about the way it is sourced. I feel good about the meats especially the " never any" brand.”

“As grocery prices increase,Aldi has become an even more vital part of my daily life. Still able to feed a family of four at a reasonable price, and specialty food (gluten free!) is more available now. Word to the wise: don't sleep on the egg whites. The equivalent of twenty eggs for $4.17 allows something approaching normalcy.”
“I go to this price chopper weekly. It mostly has everything I need and always have good customer service. I do feel the need to give a shout out to Michael in the deli though. He had a customer yesterday, 10-5-25, who was very unpleasant toward him. He kept his composure and was professional. Then when it was my turn to be helped, even though I could tell he was upset, he was very nice and I appreciated his ability to help me even though he was upset. He did a great job! Thank you for your customer service, Michael! You're doing a great job, keep it up!”
“Phenomenal store for the size of it. Stopped in during my lunch break and grabbed a warm meal. It was delicious (no, I don’t work for Hy-Vee). I grabbed a tenderloin sandwich with tots. They cooked the tots fresh and served it all right to my table. Kudos to them!”
“Great little grocery store with products from Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador, and Mexico to name a few. It is very crowded and difficult to pass someone in the aisles. We had a difficult time finding prices on the products so we didn't add anything to our cart that was missing the price. We couldn't find prices on the shelves or products in most cases. I'm guessing half of their inventory is missing a price tag or shelf label.”
“I honestly love this Aldi’s. The staff is always kind and professional, they remember you & they have the best quality salmon & produce nearby. It’s nice not having to drive 20 minutes away for quality ingredients.”
“This place is an absolute gem! They have the best vegan charcuterie board I’ve ever had. It’s also a huge portion for the price. Their selection of wine is also fantastic and the staff are phenomenal.”
