“I love trader joes so much the prices are reasonable and the bakery is really good and fresh. They currently have a sailor/ocean theme going on. It is very creative and good. The place is decorated really well which sets it apart from other stores and their jute bags are also very cute”
“They have a lot of Japanese goods that are hard to come by. The store is a little too crowded for shopping carts. Matcha tea powder is expensive. Puffs are good.”

“I love this place super clean (especially for being in the Bronx) the guys that work there are the nicest, food and produce is always fresh and their prices are reasonable considering the inflation”
“Doing a food shop at Trader Joe's is always fun! There are always new products to try and everything is so accessible and beautifully displayed. The prices are reasonable compared to the large grocery chains. My Hartsdale store has truly wonderful cashiers and employees, always helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. It's a pleasure to shop here on a weekday morning, best time, no crowds.”
“This store is very friendly and helpful many times I didn't have enough to get my toddler the snacks he desired but the guy would often let me slide in the most nice way and I noticed the kindness and sit I appreciate it wish there were more people out here like him because a lot of us single moms struggle low key”

“Wonderful attendance in special Glendaly and Pablo !! They did an amazing service for us!I was tired and in hurry, even that both of them helped me to dine my shopping and pay on time my items. People like them make us to feel happy, special and satisfied when we shop. God bless everyone whom does a great service.”
“Garden Gourmet really is an oasis in this neck of the Kingsbridge-Riverdale woods. The quality is uniformly high, with a few exceptions, and the prices are decent. More expensive than, say, Stop & Shop across the street, but overall a vastly superior store. Produce selection is abundant, with plenty of organic options. You can tell the store has a buyer who cares about quality. Again, with exceptions. They occasionally sell Sunset brand products, like tomatoes, which are not good. They should do better quality control on tomatoes. Also, there are many bagged veggies, like spinach and salads, which can contain spoilage and are best avoided. I wish they would eliminate these, but I guess people like them because the veggies are pre-washed. But there are plenty of fresh alternatives to these. The meat and chicken section also is good quality, but can be pricey, except they have an excellent deal on Bell & Evans chickens, which are top-notch. (They also offer cheap mass-produced Perdue chickens which are tasteless, but can be avoided.) The butchered meat selection is not huge, more select, but good quality and reasonably priced. However, if you're going for processed packaged meats, like sausages and other deli cuts, they have tons of high-quality imports, along with quality sliced ham, turkey, and other cold cuts that they package themselves. Their fresh fish selection is small, but good quality and not cheap. Smoked fish, though? Huge selection. Then there's the cheese -- a superb curated spread that's massive considering the size of the store, with many great prices. One picayune exception: their house-made fresh mozzarella is bland. Luckily they have other brands. Garden Gourmet obviously prides itself on their house-made products, including bean salads, olives, slaw, potato salads, etc. -- and these are uniformly good. They also offer a TON of prepared cooked food for take-home meals, but I never buy that stuff because I cook for myself. It sure looks and smells good though. The GG has a HUGE selection of locally sourced bread off all types that blows away any supermarket. Also a nice pick of cakes and pies and other baked goods that are either house made or locally sourced. One other criticism of GG: Their coffee beans are inferior. I wish they'd get a new supplier for these. Othewise there is SO MUCH more I could say about this store -- like discuss their IMMENSE selection of products imported from mainly Eastern European countries -- but I've blabbed on enough. If the Garden Gourmet ever closed down I'd be shattered.”
“Haven't been there in 26 years but just received a boat load of goodies here in Florida after the hurricane madness. Everything was amazing and want to say thank you to the owners!”
“I rarely ever write a review about anything, but I will say I was in the neighborhood and decided to drop in and wow the amount of Fresh and delicious Latin cuisine/food is unmatched. The people who work there are so kind.”

“Wedge like sandwich that was pretty good. Ordered the sausage egg and cheese. Small store front with limited parking in front. They charge a fee for using credit card.”
“very nice store but not as crowded as compared to the 5 boroughs.. there aren't "line monitors" felt foreign.. not a complaint, just an observation!”
“What an incredible find!!! We stepped into another world after visiting the Botanical Gardens. The array of specialty foods was dazzling. When we asked about some meats and cheeses to take home we were treated like royal guests. We were given tasted of prosciutto wrapped around freshly made ricotta drizzled with the best tasting balsamic vinegar ever. It was like taking a private food tour of Little Italy. The quality was superb and the cost was reasonable but the bast was the ambiance. Don't miss a visit to this store that has been in business for over one hundred years!!”
“They have improved but they have to be aware of the expiation date in the back refrigerators and in the bread area.....but in vegetables, vegetables and fruits they have improved a lot”
“Wegmans bakery did a fantastic job with an order for two dozen custom cupcakes with an image on them for a very special work event. The whole process was expertly handled. I was able to email the image file to the catering department (you can also upload on their website). Melanie, the person helping me over the phone, was patient and able to answer every question. Curbside pick up was ready exactly on the date and time I said I'd be there. If only everything could be this efficient. Thank you!!”
“Nice grocery store with lots of items as well as fresh vegetables and halal meat and poultry. You can also buy freshly ground coffee here. Prices are a bit high, especially for the meat.”

“First time being in an African grocery store. I found what I needed. The owners were friendly and helped me find what I was looking for. I'll come back again.”

“In the realm of epicurean delights, the bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich at Freddy's Deli reigns supreme as a symphony of flavors and textures. Behold, a masterpiece unfolds before you: a soft, artisanal brioche, toasted to a golden hue, cradles a medley of ethereal delights. Imagine, if you will, the unparalleled sensation of sinking your teeth into clouds of impeccably scrambled eggs, entwined with velvety ribbons of melted Cheddar cheese, and enrobed by a blanket of meticulously caramelized bacon. Each bite invokes an opulent dance of smoky, savory, and creamy notes that culminate in an exquisite culinary crescendo. To partake in this ambrosial marvel is to surrender to a sensory journey that transcends the mundane, leaving an indelible impression that lingers as a testament to the artistry of Freddy's Deli. This is me and my wife after this masterclass of a meal.”
“This place isn’t bad but it doesn’t have most things , but it could have been better tho , and it needs a update lowkey , there’s sum things that got to be done”

“Best bagels and croissants on the planet.Staff is super, very friendly and helpful.Guess it starts from the top. The guys in charge are super too. Well stocked shelves and the store is sooo clean and organized.”
“Fantastic customer service. I asked for some missing items in the shelf. The person I was seeking help immediately took me to the refrigerated store room and got what I wanted. Guess no need to go to Jackson heights anymore.”
“I’ve tried several items from their menu and all dishes were exceptional. This place offers truly authentic Mexican food that is full of flavor and at a great price. Their tacos, huevos rancheros, and salsa roja are delicious. I love how quickly they serve too. It is clean and their customer service is hospitable and welcoming. If you’ve been hesitant to try - you’re missing out. This place is 5 stars across the board.”
