Barzini’s fooled me once. I wanted some late night cereal and I inadvertently bought an old box of cobwebs and cereal. I looked at the box to find a tampered expiration date. I looked at google reviews and found that that’s their thing. I guess they have good produce but I’ll never know cause I’m not gonna give them my money again. Shameful!

I am not happy and very disappointed about the taste/quality of the organic precut fruit I bought here. I had to discard these mostly uneaten items upon returning home. I decided to come here instead of walking a few more blocks to the health nut store. This store is dangerously cluttered and I am highly suspicious of the sanitary practices in this store. Please pay attention to every thing you buy at this store but I personally won’t be returning!

Yet again, I bought cheese here only to find that the package was clearly tampered with and the expiration date changed. To all those reviewers who write about Barzini's "incredible" deals on gourmet cheese: You're getting an incredible deal on expired gourmet cheese! This is not a one-off, it's a pattern that goes beyond their cheese section. Not worth the risk. I'd love to support an independent neighborhood shop, but not if the owners are purposely modifying packages to sell expired food.

Stealing from credit cards is NOT OKAY. I bought flowers at $29.99, a box of chocolate at $12.99 and 2 boxes at $3.49. I was told "$50" so I gave my credit card. I go home to see a $75 charge.Additionally, this store sells expired cheese, moldy food etc.Incredibly rude and deceptive people here.

I went for the first time, I bought a Café bustelo and it had two prices, one of $6.99 at the front and $4.99 at the back. Do you know which one they charged me for? I realized it when I got home. Attention is basic.

To all those reviewers who write about Barzini's "incredible" deals on gourmet cheese: You're getting an incredible deal on expired gourmet cheese! To those reviewers who expressed surprise that their milk went bad a week before its expiration date: It's not that the milk went bad prematurely, it's that the expiration date was altered. This is not a one-off, it's a pattern that goes beyond their cheese section. Not worth the risk. I'd love to support an independent neighborhood shop, but not if the owners are purposely modifying packages to sell expired food.

Thieves!!! Absolute thieves!! Please report these guys if you have a similar experience to 311. Link: I came in and bought $29.99 flowers, one box of chocolate at $12.99 and two bars of chocolate at $3.49 each. I went to the cashier who said "$50". Given these were gifts, I started to remove the price tags. They did not give me a receipt. I go home and I see a $75 charge on my credit card. I go by the store and they refused to give me a receipt and told me "wait for the manager".

This is the kind of store where you're pretty sure all unsold food gets stashed here in the end: where expiration dates are questionable, everything is manually priced on pink tags, the ice cream you just bought has a spoon-breaking layer of ice on top, the meat could be other animals than the normal, the cashier's understanding of English is 40%, and the candy bars are also covered with a layer of white dust when you open them? I ate a Milka Bar and I kid you not when I tell you I'm physiologically waiting for food poisoning. My sweet tooth dragged me to this place at 11:30pm and I usually trust where it leads me, no question. Regrettably, I think I was mistaken. Think at least twice before stepping here.

I’m a private chief and i know very well the food quality and i shop all over the neighbourhood, I discovered Barzini like 2 months ago , that’s my favourite store . They have all kind and different kind of merchandise with a great prices and great quality and more importantly anytime i need something specific, the owner of the store Mr.Parviz he will get that for me in shorter time . Plus in the late night when im missing some items while cooking. I run to the store , because its 24 hrs openOverall this shop is a must go to !

The other reviewers are right. There’s a Middle Eastern male cashier who is incredibly rude. I came in to buy a Diet Coke and waited in line to pay - he took one look at me and told me his credit card machine is broken. Then he promptly serves the man behind me with a larger basket of items, and lets him pay with credit card. I had to go find another cashier and stand in line again to pay. Recommend taking your business elsewhere in the neighborhood!

This place should be avoided at all costs. They have a well-documented history or stealing from their customers by overcharging credit card purchases at the register. I bought $34 worth of groceries and was charged $77. This was not a mistake. He didn't quote the total to me and there is no screen showing the total. He just took my card, hurried the next customer up while I was still bagging, and discreetly threw the receipt away. This has happened to numerous people and has been reported to our local representative. There are so many stores nearby. Please do not give them your business.

Rude cashier who always upcharges what it says on the sign, but will give you the right price if you insist.

The tall Middle Eastern man with the glasses is rude.He will close his cashier when it’s time to serve you. He also has a complex about doing his job.He will close his cashier, when it’s your turn and then start talking to the next cashier while they are helping you, which distracts from you being able to purchase. Some of the rudest people.Their products are low quality for the price. I see rats running around on top of their products all the time and I chipped my two front teeth on their salad. A lot of their food is expired. You would think they were Upscale for the prices they charge.They are overcharging you for a lot of items. Have to be careful.

I would give them 0 stars !!!! The tall Middle Eastern man with the glasses is rude.He will close his cashier when it's time to serve you. He also has a complex about doing his job. I only mentioned his ethnicity because I've heard them be racist.

I live on the same block as this terrible place. There are also rats running all over this store !!!
