“Product is good but aisles are too narrow so you always have to wait for somebody to pass until you can go forward. Always crowded too unless you go middle of the day on a weekday.”
“A lot of selections of dishes every Sat. Great food. Fun and friendly place. Owner is very nice and helpful. She has connections, so she can make some calls and, mostly, get what you want in a matter of day. I wish they had dishes more than just Sat. Go early, thought, these dishes go fast. They have good food vendors / cooks. No worries if you buy a lot of stuff, they will help carry to your car.”
“Awesome selection of both food and household products! The customer service from Vivian and David was excellent. They were friendly, helpful, and made for a great shopping experience. I will definitely recommend this place to everyone. 😊”
“Why hidden gem, Looking at it from the outside you wouldn't know it also had a restaurant in the back cranking out some delicious authentic Filipino cuisine. The dishes are different on the daily, and the desserts are a must try as well. Good portions for the price. I didn't like that the lumpia was soggy and very oily. The Ube dessert wasn't my favorite either, but the Cassava one was. The ladies at the counter are so kind and hospitable, they get 5 stars for their service.”
“The food is always amazing, and they are so friendly and they have a great selection for their market. I live in Maryland but I always stop by when I have to do jobs near Springfield, VA”
“Looks a bit run down, but clean, well-stocked, and great prices. Meat prices are better than Lidl, as are frozen foods. No self-checkout, so the lines sometimes get long, but the cashiers are fast and they are good about opening other lines. I only go to Giant for pharmacy and things Aldi's doesn't carry.”
“This is a very good LIDL. They have fresh baked items if you want to eat. Food is cheaper than other stores. Once you go to the self checkout than put your phone number in than you get coupons. We usually save 2 dollars but better than nothing.”
“During our purchase, we encountered an unfortunate situation where the atta bag we bought was discovered to be opened upon lifting it into our car. When we attempted to return it, the manager, along with other staff members, displayed rude and unprofessional behavior. They declined responsibility, stating that the issue occurred outside the store and was therefore not their concern. However, it was the exceptional assistance of the counter lady that salvaged the situation. Her efficient and customer-oriented service stood in stark contrast to the manager's dismissive attitude. It was only due to her intervention that the problem was eventually resolved. The conduct of the manager and some of your staff members were unfair. The role of a manager should be centered on conflict resolution and customer satisfaction, not dismissive behavior that drives customers away. I hope this feedback prompts a reevaluation of the store's customer service policies and staff training, as this incident reflects poorly on the store's reputation and has resulted in the loss of a loyal customer.My review is for improvement for betterment.”
“Had a brief, but pleasant experience with Paramjit. Just appreciated her smile and calm friendliness, and professionalism. Earlier that day, I came by and was walking in as your employee, Katie Leddon(I remember her from high school and middle school) was coming out. She smiled kindly at me as I passed her. I just appreciate little things. Added November 21, 2025: The young man, cashier, Dominic, has been quite pleasant giving decent customer service.”
“I had the pleasure of speaking with Sharmila. This is a wonderful store with incredibly kind people and wonderful food and trinkets from Nepal. I will most certainly be back!”
“I stopped by this grocery store this evening to pick up a few things, and the cashier at register 8 was very friendly, helpful, and professional. He made the whole experience smooth and easy. Great customer service.”
“I have been using this store for over 20 years and I have never met a cashier like the one I met about a month ago. Her name is Janiya and she was the most thoughtful, well mannered young lady I have met in a long time. She always smiles, and ask me how I am doing, she assist me with my bags because I have a disability and she has even offered to help me with my groceries outside. Overall she is a great person and I appreciate the customer service she provides. More of the cashiers need to be inviting like she is. So many of the staff are rude, too busy talking and being loud but this young lady greeted everyone that was in line before me and after me. Whomever her parents are did a great job in raising a respectful pleasant young lady. These 5 stars are for the service she provides me weekly.”
“La Latina may be small, but she is powerful! I found a variety of tablet chocolates from Mexico, Colombia and El Salvador, to melt into delicious hot chocolate. Can't wait for a really cold, preferably snowy, night!”
“Crowded and very busy, parking is free, but busy. Once inside, the myriad of offerings are wonderful! You can find so many exotic and delicious choices, and prices are moderate. If you like multi-cultural settings, you will love this place.”
“Definitely my favorite Giant location out of the numerous ones in Springfield. The interior is definitely more presentable compared to the others + they have way more options for poultry. Also, the workers provided excellent service as they were helping customers throughout the store. Self check out is a breeze and I highly recommend downloading the Giant App as the digital coupons available are quite good. Overall a clutch store that I'm glad isn't too far from me ?”
“Giant Bakery made my son’s birthday so special on January 30. Hanan was amazing — she helped me choose the cake design and decorations, and the cake was fresh, incredibly delicious, and beautifully decorated. Thank you, Hanan, you truly made our day beautiful.”
“I had a wonderful shopping experience here. The store is very clean and well-organized. At the checkout, a young gentleman named Mirwais Jalili was extremely polite, friendly, and helpful. I’m very satisfied with the service and will definitely come back again. Highly recommended!”
“Nice store you wanna know why? I can get Cristal beer here from Peru. I love this beer and I have been searching everywhere for it. I first tried it at Pio Pio in Hell's Kitchen Manhattan NYC and feel in love with it. I have found it in a couple Peruvian Restaurants in the Washington DC area but never in a retail store until my by chance visit to La Latina Market in Springfield Virginia. It's not the only reason I like this store. It's a small store but it has the merchandise of a full size grocery store. The even have a small but nice fresh meat department and fresh vegetables. The store of course is geared towards Latinos but is really a nice market for anyone and I think some people miss out by not going in and trying these neat little markets. I didn't use to but now I love trying different foods from other cultures. Not only main course meals but things like chips and desserts and here they have plenty of all of that to sample. Now that I know they sell a beer I like I'm sure I'll be stopping by more often and checking out the stores other merchandise.”
“They always have what I need no matter what food from whatever culture.you think your local Asian market doesn't have it? It's here. A new trend involving something from across the continent? This place has it. I highly suggest coming here. Everyone is very nice and even when it's crowded I havent had any negative experiences except it being slightly loud.”
“This Whole Foods has a great location, and the staff is always friendly and helpful. It’s always clean and well organized. I also like that they have an Amazon Returns counter, which makes returning packages quick and easy. Great shopping experience every time!”
“This Giant is pretty nice. The entrance is inside an indoor plaza. Parking was easy and plentiful. EVERYTHING was very well stocked which is worth the four stars alone in these times. The store seemed clean and staff was friendly and helpful. I happened to be nearby which is why I stopped in, and if I find myself around this way again I'd stop here to do some quick shopping.”
“Large variety of Halal food items. Meat section is neat and clean . Authentic Halal meat u can get from this store due to owner is very careful about selling that stuff to community. Long time in business very good customer service and always welcoming environment . Prices on some items are high but u will not find any expire item. Over all u will enjoy your shopping trip”
“The employees are awesome. The whole pharmacy team has been so helpful and caring. The floor employees are all very friendly and helpful too. I cannot say enough how much I love the people here.”
“Giant is always clean, well-organized, and easy to shop in. They have a great selection of fresh produce, quality meat, bakery items, and everyday essentials. The staff is friendly, helpful, and the checkout process is usually quick. I appreciate how well-stocked the store is and how easy it is to find what I need. A reliable place for all my grocery shopping”
“I have visited this pharmacy many times and interacted with different employees before deciding to write this review. My opinion is not based on just one staff member, but on my overall experience. This pharmacy is one of the best in the area. They always do their best to provide the recommended and required brands. The employees are friendly, and many of them go out of their way to help you find better prices and offer helpful recommendations.”
“My favorite place to shop. Their customer service is the best, and they have a fantastic variety of authentic products from Pakistan and Bangladesh. The meat is always fresh and high-quality, and the prices are better than most other stores. Every time I visit, I leave feeling happy and satisfied. A true gem for the community.”
“Use to go here alot 6 years ago before I moved to Florida.Got to go back for the first time a couple of days ago during a visit.The review about the people there being rude is very wrong The lady at the counter remembered me from years ago and we had a great conversation about a bagau I bought and feng shui with a customer who happened to be in line.,This is a great little family run market,wish I could have had more time to stay and talk”
“The staff are friendly and work very well. The Ashak bolani is very delicious and fresh. I am satisfied with my shopping experience and recommend this market to others.”
The Cincinnati-based supermarket giant will open about 110 new stores in fast-growing markets by 2029 and introduce three updated store formats, executives told investors Oct. 20 at the company’s Investor Update in New York. Kroger already runs about 2,700 stores in 35 states. The formats come in three sizes, a bit like small, medium and large, matched to each market.

Walmart wants your groceries at the door before the ice cream softens. On May 29, the retailer said its 30-minute-or-less delivery had reached 33 U.S. markets, adding a wave of new cities across the Northeast. 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. Behind the scenes, the service leans on Walmart's store network and an algorithm that factors in order size, available drivers, and distance from the store.
Trader Joe's keeps adding stores, and shoppers keep showing up. The California grocer has marked nine more locations as "opening soon," pushing its expansion into new corners of the country. The grocer also took first place in the American Customer Satisfaction Index's 2026 supermarket rankings. It has held a spot near the top of that list for years.
