“I visited Nohadra Market Wholesale & Bulk Food, and I really loved it! The store offers a wide variety of authentic Iraqi products, and everything is so fresh — from groceries to fruits and other items. You can find almost everything here! It’s a great market, and it truly reminded me of home. I’ll definitely be coming back again”
“In this time of inflationary and rising food prices, this T&T food market in Vaughan offer very reasonable prices in food items, meat, fish fruits and vegetables. We nay see slight price increase in some food items, but it usually small increase. My family always grocery shopping at T&T”
“As a Healthy Planet customer for over 10 years who shops across five branches, I have never experienced the level of service I received at Bathurst and Sheppard. A gentleman named Reza went above and beyond for my health journey. Reza is remarkably knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely caring. He listened to my concerns and guided me toward the right supplements. For 13 years, I suffered from chronic joint pain. Thanks to his expert recommendations, my joints are finally recovering, and my health has improved dramatically. Reza represents the best of customer service. If you visit this location, seek him out, you will be in great hands.”
“I really appreciate all Super Arzoon’s staffs for their kind manner and different tasty foods. Special thanks to dear Mozhgan and Mr Reza for her warm hospitality as well Regards”
“pinakadabestttttttt ulams. i’ve just tried their pork sinigang tonight for dinner perpek for the weather and it’s the closest timpla to what i used to cook back home in Cebu 🥹 not even the bigger filipino restaurants matched the standard (in my personal opinion) yung chicken inasal din nila parang mang inasallll. thank you so so much this store exists! more blessings pa po!”
“I tried the lahmacun with my family, it was delicious and so reasonable price. 6 cad per piece within tax. Size was close to the middle size pizza. I highly recommend trying it.”
“love the sushi at the food court. big portions too. i do hope they’ll add some sesame seeds inside the sushi bc there was some on my sushi that had it and it tasted really good!”
“Went in here today, the gentleman in the store is very nice and helpful. I got to pick out a lot of cool Dutch products. Can’t wait to try my new Dutch treats also they have lots of nice dutch souvenirs cheeses and meats”
“A true gem! This family-owned bakery and grocery store is serving up the best bread you will ever eat. The quality is unmatched because they make their bread by hand in a traditional tandoor oven creating authentic, old-world flavours. They’ve brought years of experience, technique, and true passion to this place. Beyond the incredible bread, they have fresh sweets, a great selection of pantry staples, and bulk items. The owners are absolutely wonderful. Genuine, salt-of-the-earth people. I don't live close, but I go out of my way to stock up once a month. It freezes beautifully, and from the freezer to a hot oven, it’s just as fresh and smoky as the day it was made.”
“Very clean and great variety. Such a large selection, they are sure to have what you need. Wonderful fresh bread, that they will cut to specific slice size. As well as educated and helpful staff. When I mentioned I work nights, the salad bar/ hot food bar employee suggested no fried foods as they will make me tired. Thank you for that one B! The only reason I do not give 5 star is because the last few times I left my buggy locked up. I parked on the far side from where I paid. The staff where fast to unlock me and I understand why they do it. I just prefer not to have it happen to a paying regular customer.”
“I’ve been to Alborz Supermarket a number of times in the last few years, and it’s always a pleasure to shop there. It’s a great little market with a wonderful selection of Persian and Middle Eastern products, and the quality of the food is excellent. The owner and the staff is always friendly, welcoming and helpful, which makes a big difference. It’s the kind of neighborhood market that has a warm, personal feel you don’t always get at larger grocery stores. Good products, good people and a great selection. Definitely worth a visit, especially if you’re looking for authentic Persian/Middle Eastern products. Keep up the great work, Alborz!”
“Clean, well organized and huge grocery store located in the First Markham Place shopping mall. The prices of the fruit and vegetables are generally 10 to 20% higher than other grocery stores but they offer a large selection that's good quality and you may not be able to find another grocery stores. They have an amazing variety of different products and brands of packaged goods so if you're looking for something specific, you will find it here. The downside is that it can be hard to find parking because this area is very busy and there are not many spots in peak hours. You may also be competing with people attending the mall or restaurants nearby. Also, the parking lot is slightly hazardous as the ground is uneven and there are some strange curbs. It is quite a far walk to the store and the parking lot is not very accessible.”
“I LOVE Balkan Express ❤️‼️ First, please let me say... This review is long overdue, as I have been a fan of Balkan Express for years! Several years back, I found myself thinking about and MISSING my Baba's Zelnick. I decided to put a message out to all of my fellow Macedonian friends on Facebook asking the question: "Where can I find/buy the Best Zelnick, in the GTA?" The place that had the highest number of references was Balkan Express! My dear friend, and fellow Macy, Katharine Hollinsworth, used to live right by Balkan Express and when she wrote to tell me how much she loved the food there, I knew I had to make the trip from Mississauga. I called ahead and requested a large Zelnick. When I arrived, they had it ready, and maybe I shouldn't be saying this... but they gave me all kinds of wonderful samples, and I absolutely fell in love with the owners and the Balkan Express! I asked them to make me another fresh Zelnick and took it to my father Tom (Born in Zhelevo), and he said: "This is just like my Mom used to make!" I can 'second' that! The Zelnick is just like my Baba used to make! ❤️ Balkan Express is highly recommended!!! Dan Bodanis Mississauga December 22 2024”
“Massive variety of spices and grains. Prices are comparable to grocery stores, if not cheaper... But they're a supplier! They package on site. It's about as fresh as you can get!”
“This shop is the best ?? I order online and the lady that answers the phone, she's always in such a good mood. Delivery is always on point. They're keeping you informed about your order. Keep it up Guys!!”
“Best place in the area for fresh and affordable flowers! I picked out 3 small bouquets and they created this masterpiece (only $30)! Truly cannot be beat! They also have a small selection of produce that is all excellent quality.”
“hello you never know what you with find when you go that's for sure I think they should price everything so customers know what is the price is sometimes things get moved around and most people don't read the signs mostly on the dry goods”
“The quality of the meat here is unmatched. So much incredible meat and cheese imported from Italy, prosciutto di Parma, real provola like the videos on TikTok of chefs melting it directly onto pizza. What an amazing little store!! The bread is really tasty too. If you need a last minute gift they have Italian cookies and tattling. I really appreciate that I can buy regular meat or completely seasoned that I just have to throw it in a pan as soon as I get home. I’m especially a fan of their veal cutlets that come seasoned and breaded. The size and thickness are always so on point it’s tryky satisfying to shop here. If you have any questions they treat you like family and take care of everything you need. There is always something new and different to try at this store! What a treat to have a little piece of Italy in our backyard!”
“The best...uncle George and staff are really friendly and kind. Had a great experience at G Prasad Caribbean Store. Definitely a great place to shop. I highly recommend it!”
“Over the past couple years I've been doing all my grocery shopping at Richmond Hill Farm Boy Yonge/Jefferson. Robert (butcher) in the meat department is one of the friendlies/courteous person I've ever met. Always there to provide top quality service. Never too busy to listen to customer's needs. Exceptional employee.”
“Always great prices and quality is beyond compare. Staff are friendly and welcoming. I do wish they opened earlier than 10 am on weekends, though. Why buy produce anywhere else? You don't need to. This is THE place to buy your produce!”
“I had a wonderful experience at this supermarket! The staff was friendly and readily available to help. Today, I had the privilege of chatting with Chef Baran, who prepares an amazing Ash Sabzi - it was incredibly tasty, and her genuine kindness made the interaction even more enjoyable.”
“Great store for Italian groceries, meat, prepared foods, deli etc. Visit everytime I'm in town. Specials are good. Meat choice limited but excellent quality.”
“Salam it’s me Sadiq Ahmad you guys have a good service Mashallah god bless you all they guys and specially murtaza ijaz he is so kind person and so nice guy Allah give him more success and health.”
“A fantastic local market with high-quality meats and a great selection of Portuguese products. Everything looked fresh, and the staff was friendly and helpful. If you're looking for specialty ingredients or premium cuts of meat, this is definitely a place worth visiting. Just bear in mind that it can be a little pricier than other Portugese store.”
“Location is very low key but the food and staff are awesome. Ask for Raffaela. Have ordered for 3 upcoming functions. Prices are reasonable and comparable.”
“Absolutely adorable shop for east european pastries. Initially, we were hoping to find some medovik when walking into the store, but they didn't have it. The lady behind the counter kindly introduced us to cherry pie, cream roll with cheese and a lot of other stuff.. We got a bunch of them. They tasted very homemade and delicious. Would definitely recommend.”
“Went to Fortinos on Saturday after a visit to Vaughan Mills. My son wanted to try the porchetta sandwich and pizza. The sandwich was smaller than I thought it would be but it was moist and flavorful. We had their Roman style pizza. We had them heat it up but one of the slices was luke warm. The slices were tasty thick and crunchy. Service was fast and friendly.”
“Ihad a great experience at Bestco thanks to Jianhui. He was extremely helpful and guided me to find all my grocery items quickly and easily. His friendly attitude and willingness to help really stood out. Excellent customer service—thank you!”
“H Mart at 370 Steeles Ave W is a clean, well‑organized store with a great selection of fresh produce, seafood, and Korean groceries. The aisles are easy to navigate, and the shelves are always well stocked with both everyday essentials and harder‑to‑find items. I especially appreciate the variety of ready‑to‑eat meals and side dishes, which make quick shopping trips convenient. Staff are generally friendly and efficient, and checkout lines move smoothly even during busy times. Overall, it’s a reliable and enjoyable place to shop for quality Asian ingredients.”

Walmart wants your groceries at the door before the ice cream softens.

Shoppers in those areas can order from more than 100,000 items, everything from fresh produce and baby formula to pet food, electronics, cold medicine, and prescriptions.
