Our first time to the store yesterday and we decided to try some food entries which are fresh in a typical small business store. Unfortunately dhokla, vada pav and samosa were stale. Also found some items (Bournvita) on shelf stocked beyond expiry date. They should do more to stay competitive as there are better options a few miles away. Will be very careful buying here - 1) check the dates on packaged items and 2) would caution on store prepared snacks.

To go place for Indian grocery shopping, all items are very tightly packed but they stock literally all items so kudos to them, fresh vegetables not a great variety and availability but am not really concerned

It’s good grocery store but prices are really high. I bought the large bournvita for 15 dollar where other grocery stores prices are 9$ another bad part is they take only card above 15$. That’s sounds inappropriate.

Before I start with the review, let me say that I do not take writing a critical review lightly as I fully understand the impact of negative reviews (esp. for a small business). That said, here is my story.We are new to the area and thus not familiar with the popular Indian Grocery stores. Google pointed Shital to be the close store w/ the avg. rating of 4-stars. So, I went there to get some fresh vegetables and a couple of other items. The initial impression of the store was that aisles & racks were tightly packed. Went to the fresh vegetable aisle. All vegetables were on top of a open refrigerator (much like Walmart). Initially, I did not think much of it until I saw okra (bhindi) that did not look fresh at all. It had black spots and seemed "withered". Other vegetables seemed old as well. Now, it was obvious why the vegetables were stored on top of a open refrigerator (which is unlike how most Indian grocery stores store their fresh vegetables): turnaround & restocking was infrequent. Next, I went to the frozen section to get garlic naans. I picked up a large pack of garlic naan. The naan is suppose to kept frozen until use. The naans in this packet felt soft and did not felt frozen. I figured that it might be one off, so I reached for another pack in the same area. Again, naans in the second package also seemed soft. I mentioned the fact to the person behind the counter who was likely the store owner. He said that it might be just that one packet. So, he went back and got another packet. This packet was also not fully frozen. This is alarming and a health hazard as the food that is suppose to be frozen is not actually frozen. I decided not to get naans. Though, I did get a couple of Indian snacks (namkeen). The price seemed a little on the high side, but I decided to go ahead and purchase the snacks as I figured that I would not be returning to this store in the future. During checkout, I was informed that I had to make a $15 minimum purchase to use the credit card otherwise there would be a $0.50 charge. My total (w/o the .50 charge) was around $13.80. It is shady when business owners decide to jack up the minimum purchase amount from the customary $10 to $15. Overall, the food quality/safety, price and overall experience was poor. I would suggest that patrons shop elsewhere for the Indian grocery needs.

Bought Frozen Bun Kabab from Shital Grocery, when I opened the package food had fungus on it, reported it to the shop and they said to bring it back to them which was 40 minutes away . Please check the frozen items at the shop before leaving.

Greedy owner who tries to make money out of the rice scarcity situation, forcing to spend more to get a rice bag.

Not a bad store. A little congested. Watch out for expired products. Also caution on custom packed grocery. One time I was looking for Pheni, and they had them wrapped in a disposable plate.

Well organized and easy to spot the things. Please ask for help if you can’t find your items, they will come to the aisle and show you the shelf where you can find it. Don’t forget to check the cooler right next to billing counter. Yummy Indian sweets, cut vegetables, Pooja flowers etc on one side and samosas and jilebi’s on the other side (especially the jaggery jilebi). Ask for pan leaf at the counter, they will get you the nice and fresh pan leaves.
