“If you're looking for a fine dining experience then this is not the place for you, but if you're looking for good food, you'll find it here. This was our first time here and the staff was helpful with food recommendations. We really enjoyed the spicy chicken, veggie combo, and the lamb tips were excellent! I would definitely recommend the food.”
“Really Great store I give it a 10/10, great prices and you have a variable of foods available. Staff is really friendly and ready to help out. Really recommend this place.”
“Everyone is friendly here from the front of the house to the butcher. Great selection from kimem to traditional houseware items. Injera that is made in-house and is the best! Light and fresh always! I use to always get Ethiopian injera until I discovered Alem gebeya injera. It’s always an easy 1-stop shop for all habesha needs, the best in the area!”

“this is a streamlined but well stocked. Aldi. as usual, you find excellent deals with a good variety of food items. the only deficiency I see would be healthier eating options like plant-based meats. the store is basically set in the past model.”
“(Translated by Google) I like to buy the ribs to grill here Good cuts good meat I recommend it(Original)Me gusta comprar las costillas para asar aqui Buenos cortes buena carne lo recomiendo”
“Excellent place with great service, my go to place for everything Balkan. Includes plenty of Bulgarian foods, the place to go for them. I could call it "the local Bulgarian store", not just former Yogoslavia is represented. Great diversity of good foods”
“Usually I stop by on my way home right around closing time and their shelves are nearly empty, but this time I got there and everything was very nicely stocked! I needed help finding something too and a worker came right over and helped me.”
“The owner of the store never is consistent with there store hours of operation. They open and close there Mart whenever they see fit and they don't care about inconviencing there customers whatsoever!!!”
“Can't remember which location this is, but any aldi I recommend, always a solid selection on food and such. Great prices on everything too. Glad they're not just in Europe.”
“I love shopping at Aldi. You never know what you're going to find. Shopping at Aldi is a mental outlet. I like to go into the home section so I can find some great deals. I did absolutely that and purchased some serving platters. We're having seafood nachos and tacos for dinner tomorrow. They will work out just fine!#happyshopping”
“Clean place and the prices kind of ok , seafood department need a face-lift, I haven't get seafood because doesn't looks clean and that doesn't mean isn't clean”
“One of the best Aldi locations in the area. The store is well-stocked, clean and has efficient check out lines.
The simply nature brand offers high-quality, organic food products for a fraction of the cost of other major retailers.
Located in a small shopping center with a large free parking lot.”
“This store lowkey does not pass the vibe check.
TL:DR - Hiring process is crap and annoying to deal with, Hispanic section is good, and their donuts are AMAZING.
Come here AT LEAST for the donuts, fr worth it.
8 of my friends (9 including me) never got any kind of response when we applied to work here, plus the managers always seemed to mysteriously unavailable to be spoken to.
I've literally called the store, got told to call back the next morning, called the next morning, "Manager on vacation" :/
when will they be back? " X date." Thanks so much.
Called back on X date, "She'll be here tomorrow morning" thanks.
Calls back tomorrow morning, "Hi, not here. Call again tomorrow morning."
At which point I came INTO THE STORE to speak with this elusive hiring manager, just to be told that they were on vacation and won't be back for a while.
: )
So suffice to say, hiring process seems messy, outdated, unreliable, and flat out non-functional at times.
The website needs to be updated, the employees need proper customer service training because regardless of what I'm calling about, and who's answering, it's always in a tone that sounds like I might aswell be interrupting a neurosurgeon mid incision.
The only redeeming quality of this store is what it sells, and I'm not talking standard groceries.
Not only does Shoppers have a decent spread of hispanic foods, ingredients, drinks & snacks, but it's also got some of, if not THE BEST donuts you could buy from a store.
The donut chains like Dunkin or Krispy Kreme got nothing on SFW donuts, they got Croissant donuts (Cronuts), marble iced, Holland Creme (my favorite), jam filled, lemon pudding filled, boston creme, and of course all your standard donut types like powdered, brown sugar, plain and glazed, not to even mention some specialty ones they have on occasion like the apple pie filled brown sugar, or marbled icing cronuts.
Plus they're reasonably priced, which automatically raises the rating for me.
(Next I get donuts I'll snap some pictures and add them!)”
“(Translated by Google) The tamales are delicious, good prices, they have a little bit of everything(Original)Los tamales son deliciosos, Buenos precio, tienen de todo un poco”
“Great fresh seafood and seems like the best deal on oysters in the area. A very good choice of produce at friendly prices. That said, stay away from frozen meats and frozen seafood.”
“If you are Hispanic/Caribbean or from NYC or Florida or LA and looking for your childhood ingredients or your hometown ingredients to cook your traditional plates? Then this supermarket is the one for you hands down.”

“This review is solely for Victor. I was looking for buttermilk, but couldn’t find any. He said they were out. I was like ok, no worries. :-) I then went to the self check out and next thing you know, I look over and Victor is standing right in front of me with a jug of buttermilk. He says “this is the last one I found”. I was so grateful and I couldn’t believe he went above and beyond to chase me down (while
dropping whatever he was already working on) just to hand me the last jug he was able to find. Thank you,Victor.
Amazing customer service from him! Now, I don’t have to run to the next grocery store after coming back from work.”
“Es un lugar donde encuentras cualquier tipo de alimentos, medicinas, y es un lugar donde encuentras servicios de fax, copias cambian cheques además la gente es súper agradable, y muy amables...”
“Wide variety of middle eastern and southeast asian foods and home supplies. Truly fairly priced, and lately they doubled their square footage for customers to lose themselves as they stock for a zombie apocalypse. They also bring special foods during Ramadan which helps make the season a bit more homely for those homesick folk.”
“Wonderful neighborhood supermarket with a traditional latin bakery in the back, deli and large produce area. The staff here are nice and always make small talk or crack jokes. Shop local and stay away from the big brand stores!”
“I very much recommend them, very kind and polite service and fresh halal meat. It is so important to eat clean, healthy meat and vegetables during this time, and they always have that. If you have any questions they are very friendly. Excellent goat, beef and chicken 10/10.”
“I am a loyal customer to this Aldi location, and for good reason! Parking is always a breeze, which is a major plus. The selection of products is consistently on par with or even better than other Aldi locations I have visited. But what truly sets this store apart is the friendly staff. They're always welcoming and helpful, making my shopping experience a pleasure.
Another aspect that impresses me is the store's cleanliness. Unlike some other Aldi locations I have gone to and shopped at, this one is always tidy and well-maintained, with no cluttered aisles or overflowing boxes. It's clear the staff takes pride in their work.
Given these strengths, I'm happy to give this Aldi location a well-deserved 5-star rating. If you're looking for a hassle-free shopping experience with great prices and excellent service, look no further! I will continue to choose this location over others, and I highly recommend it to fellow Aldi fans.”
