I am their regular customer but men their meat prices are super high and i always supported their business but seems like they don't care customers they just charge what ever they feel like 4 pounds of goat they charged me 79 dollars and even they don't remove fat they count everything.These people are blood suckers.They don't care.Never going back to this place.Again supported them enough.

Best butcher shop in town, hands down. Locally farm raised meats that are better than I have had from anywhere else. Family owned and they have been there for almost 30 years. Alex is super nice and will make sure you get exactly the cut of meat that you are looking for!

2 lady workers are so nice . The quality of meat is not good at all. It tastes like expired spoiled and costs a lot. 1 pound for 3.99$ . I thought it is ok it is halal and we have to support halal grocery stores but not this time , they have to work for quality.

Da Real Deal Black Seed OilI shop here for five reasons: 1) black seed oil, 2) Jerusalem olive oil, 3) whole coffee beans, 4) teas and 5) hard to find spices.Although this market offers a lot more to a variety of culture and diaspora cultures. The black seed oil is pressed every single day. It can't get more organic than that.Jerusalem olive oil is only sold here. Can't get more original than that.It's an all purpose oil in my home. I dip my bread in it with French sea salt. My hair is luxurious. My skin is radiant. My make-up is removed easily. And my DIY body scrub is buttery soft.No need to comment on customer service because every single customer is "the family."Prices are incredibly fairHey you..reading this...you will be given immeasurably more than you can imagine.

Didn’t have good experience here in my multiple visits, goat meat is stale and must have been kept frozen for months

My husband and I came down to check on this store to buy fresh halal lamb for Eid. It's a small store that is pretty tightly packed full of stuff. We got to the meat counter and there was nothing in the cases. We asked for lamb and also chicken thighs. The lady at the counter said she wasn't sure if they still had chicken left but would check. She came back and said they only had about 3 pounds. I took it, but by the time we got home and I opened the bag, there was definitely that "not so fresh" chicken smell. Raw chicken shouldn't have a smell if it's good. This had almost a strong gasoline smell, which means it's pretty far gone to me. I ended up tossing it out. I normally would have given one star, but the lamb was actually super fresh. I should have asked to smell the chicken first, but I don't know... to me, the smell was pretty strong so the lady that sold it to me should have known it was already bad before she put it in the bag for me and just not have sold it.

Like a middle eastern bazaar plopped into little Saigon.they have everything from amazingly fresh home roasted nuts (try the peanuts and cashews), dried fruits (golden figs are amazing), fresh dried spices (zaatar), a rainbow of teas (we got sri lankan ceylon), and baklava made by the owners wife (one of the best I've had in socal**) and even home made cold pressed black seed oil (apparently a natural super ingredient westerners haven't caught onto). There was also this yummy pistachio thing from Lebanon. Never heard of it but if you like nuts this is like crack.**note this baklava is less sweet and super crisp. Others may disagree on the yumminess if they are used to over honey/sweet baklavaThank goodness the restaurant we wanted to go to next door had a small wait. We popped into mid-east market while waiting thinking it would save us a trip to North Park produce. SO MUCH BETTER. Will always come back here to try something new and not commonly available here.

If you ever have the pleasure of visiting this place I recommend it. The freshest highest quality meat and spices imported regularly. Everything is high quality and I definitely recommend trying their new import of Palestinian olive oil. Beautiful place.

This business owner sure knows how to pack the maximum amount of product into his shop! The refrigerated and frozen foodstuffs was filled with exotic (to me) items that I wish I could ask what/how they're used. SPICES, SPICES, SPICES!!!! I was in spice nirvana; everything from ground cardamom, whole cardamom, 7 Arabic spice, zaatar (red and green), suya, shawarma mixes, sumac & a whole lot of other spices I'm not familiar with is available, and in small quantities, so you're not stuck with a lot if you're not familiar with east/African and or middle eastern cuisine. I couldn't resist, so I purchased a bottle of camel milk, and they even have a small halal meat counter; I'm vegetarian, so I avoided the hooves and hard chicken (African cuisine(?)). I also purchased a darling stainless steel warmer for $9. I guess it's used for coffee, but I'm going to use it for hot water for my tea. There's an amazing fresh garlic spread the Owner (graciously) allowed me to sample. It's so good, I purchased 3 small containers, when I should've purchased 1 small and 1 large -- your breath will reek of garlic, but wow , it's amazing! Suggested use is in place of mayo and just as is on pita. If you like the fermented bread a lot of African places use as an edible plate, they have it at the checkout counter. Limited health/beauty products and bulk items -- they've got it! Like I said, an impressive and efficient use of every square inch. And it's pretty clean, too! No flies buzzing around. Parking can be a challenge; it's a blink and you miss it kinda place on the corner. All street parking was taken, so I chanced it and found a spot in the back. Please don't hesitate to pay this business a visit. There was so much to see that i wanted to take it all in and not take a bunch of pictures.
