Great variety of products available at reasonable prices. Have Improved a lot under new management. The owner, with the beard, is really nice. They also have student discount. You can find all possible Indian groceries under one roof. Would definitely recommend.

Best grocery shopping experience I have ever had! Such an amazing employee there helping out and giving great recommendations! Both my partner and I are vegan and we found a lot of great options there, even packaged cookies!! Would highly recommend! Such a wonderful little shop!

Under new management, it has gotten worse. Just pay attention to the digital scale that wont reset to 0. Also double check the individual item price they charge. Curry leaves @$25/pound with digital scale reset to 0.109 (instead of 0) is an easy steal for an additional $2.65 that not many notice. Do this to 10 customers a day and you end with a nice chunk of change. Nice try but wont work for too long. I will simply take my business elsewhere. Hope the (rumored) 3rd store opens soon to kick this one out of business.

Under new management, this Indian grocery store is now much much better. I earlier didnt like this place as the prices, expiry dates etc were all not marked properly but now, everything is properly maintained and the prices are reasonable too.

We had so many bad experiences from this shop. At least two to three items will be not good if we buy 10 items even before the expiration date. Also they are keeping expired items too. Recently the management changed but no change in quality. It as same as before. Just people changes. Today I went buy yogurt but most of the boxes are spoiled even the expiration date says still may 08 2021. I report to the person that see all yogurt boxes are spoiled. He simple said I dont know about this...... I dont know what he is doing in the shop.. his duty to check the products that he is selling. Here after I never visit this shop.

Ive read the harsh reviews. It seems like the store is under new management. There were price tags on everything. The gentleman working that afternoon was very kind and eager to help answer any questions. I had a good experience. Recommended.

A good Indian grocery store with Indian spices and Indian style grocery with decent price.

Review №18

Probably because there are only handful of asian/indian grocery in Fort collins, that is why they do not care about the customer. Worst customer experience in a mini-mart like this in Fort collins for sure. The thing I most hate about this place despite having choice on products is the lack of price tags. Why though? Arent customer like us supposed to know what is the price of the item before buying? If an item cost 20$ and is displayed, I would think to buy or not depending on my budget. I do not want to take product to the checkout and be shocked to see the price revealed later. Please fix this issue and maybe I will have a good rating...

I had a bad experience shopping here..... Please check the expire dates on the item before buying...... Also please somebody tell the seller their to add price tags on their products....

Never going back again....... They sell expired products . I bought this as of Nov -2020. There was price tag on top of date of expiry. When i purchased and took the tag off at home this is what i found. If anyone can suggest if i can file a complaint to FoCo food and health

Review №24

Why are the prices hidden? Why are you scared to put a price tag on products? Isnt it the customers or even a basic human right to know the price of the product before we buy it? This shop is a scam!

St
Review №25

Why are the prices of the goods hidden? Its kept in a top secret file and customers aint allowed to see. The customers are being cheated. Period.

Review №26

Beware buyers!!! This place is very deceptive... The owner rarely puts price tags on the products and is very rude when asked about the price....... For many item I have purchased, all the shop owner does is scans barcode from a file and put multiple things on Miscellaneous when billed... As a customer, it is my right to see the price first before I buy anything, and without price tags you end up paying a lot for items you dont want to buy in first place

They have alot of great stuff, pretty much always have what Im looking for even the more obscure things. Also have some stuff for home/beauty and holidays. You can buy henna and flower waters here at good prices. People are always friendly. I almost docked one star because I have once bought something that was beyond best by date, but it was not a food item so probably easy to miss. And since then I have not found anything else out of date as I check now, so it seems they have gotten better about that.Would highly recommend this place for people who want the stuff you cant get anywhere else ;)

I was pleased to discover this little gem in Ft Collins a few weeks ago. They pack in a ton of stuff into a little store, so it is a little tricky to navigate. Great place to go to for bulk spices, yummy cookies and Indian go-to ingredients.

This place is the hidden gem of Fort Collins. SHOP HERE! Lots of bulk items, spices, basics (like grains, beans) and yummy frozen foods. Not just for vegans -- but definitely a vegan oasis.

Review №39

Not sure why others are saying its expensive.. this is THE PLACE to buy spices and grains. $2-3 for huge bags of spices is better than anywhere else in foco, and they have every spice and flour you didnt know you needed! Giant bags of rice for $15. Their produce is really limited, but thats to be expected of a small store.

The selection of items are good. However, the prices are very high. I saw some expired items still sitting on the shelf. The guy tries to rip you with prices. Be very careful.

Review №41

This is the first grocery store in the world were you wont find the price tag of the goods. Its like blind shopping. The price is revealed after your credit card is swipped and the shopkeeper shows you the bill. Surprised, youve been deceived!

Ro
Review №42

I agree with what one of the other reviewers said. The store doesnt indicate any price on the items and the owners quote prices randomly. On a slow buyer day, their prices can be a rip off. If you tell them that you would like to see prices on the stuff, they show synthetic anger and take offense to that feedback. The store is a very ordinary and typical Indian grocery shop. If you are willing to drive a little further out of the town, you will actually find something better. Otherwise, you end up paying for their monopoly in FoCo.

Review №45

This is a small Indian grocery store. They dont have as much variety as most Indian stores Ive visited, but they have most of what I typically need. As far as price, the reviews on here are mixed, I believe this is because its more expensive than most Indian stores Ive been to, but less expensive than typical American grocers. Its a mom and pop shop, the owners have been very friendly to me.

The only reason I go here is I am from India and this is the only store. Products past expiration date and prices off the roof are a routine. My sister buys a product in CA for $1.99 that I get here for $6.99.
