Sochi style cheese bread.

My wife and I are visiting Fresno for a few days. I have learned that Fresno has a decent population of Armenians so I wanted to try some good Khachapuri, which is a popular Georgian dish also enjoyed by Armenian. When I walked into this market, I noticed that the place is very clean, organized, and well maintained. I ordered the Sochi style cheese bread (Khachapuri) and was told to wait approx. 20 min. The staff were very friendly and courteous when taking my order. I then dine at one of the 2 tables outside. The Khachapuri had a delicious, chewy, cheesy center. It was not too oily but I did wish the crust to be a bit thinner so it could be a little softer. Overall, it tasted much better than the one I had in DD Karabakh Farmers Market a few miles away and also better than the one I had in Pasadena.

I been passing by this place a couple times when I would visit next door and I finally gave it a try. They have their menu outside so you can even see the prices beforehand. Inside is a little market and they even have some produce. They carry alot of home made stuff in the fridges like hummus, garlic sauce, cabbage rolls just to name a few. I grabbed the spicy hummus with their pita chips. It was alright, not spicy to me. And I also got their chicken and beef plate. It came with rice pilaf, a salad, garlic sauce and pita bread. It was quite a wait but ik that's cus they was making it fresh. She did come out n apologized for the wait and lmk how much longer.. I finally got my food and tried it at home. The rice alone was good. Not dry or overcooked. The meat pieces were pretty big! Nice and tender. The garlic sauce complimented the meats well with the pita bread. The salad was refreshing but really was just okay since it was mainly cucumber and tomatoes.. I still ate everything up.

Chicken kebab plate.

Amazing lunch options, unique and delicious market treats, and probably some of the tastiest European desserts Ive found in a bodega. My wife and I were looking for Mediterranean food and Arrat Market popped up. While I don't think this place is a true Mediterranean restaurant they do offer delicious Mediterranean focused plates. We ordered two Chicken kebab plates with a side dzadziki (yogurt sauce) and extra pita. The food was amazing. The chicken was super juicy and full of flavor and the rice was a perfect mix of al dente yet not try. Dzadziki, which I've never seen it spelled like that, was super fresh and the crispy cucumber added a nice crunch. Definitely a revisit dinner spot and they take phone orders! While we waited for our food we shopped around. This place is small, but they have so much good stuff here. Tons of international spices, candies, and jarred items. We left with some spices, a bag of cinnamon cookies, and lots of sweets for the kiddos. Can't wait to head back here and sample more of their menu and get a few more sweet treats!

Chicken and beef combo plate

Great customer service at this mom and pop shop! First time here, and will be back. I order the chicken and beef combo plate. It was about 10-15 min wait but the meat was so tender and juicy - not dry or rushed through the cooking process which I appreciate! The salad was nothing special, garlic sauce was well balanced!

Extremely poor customer service by woman at front register. 2pm on 5/2/2025 My husband and I came in to see what the market had to offer the community because we had been drawn in by the amazing marketing on the windows while in the area. Once we entered, Staff did not acknowledge us at all like most small businesses. When I asked her a question she stared at me until I was finished speaking. Instead of answering the question, she began to speak with a customer. The customer did not respond to the staff initially, which led to her answering my question. I would like to clarify that the customer was not an employee and attempted to respond to my inquiry. I'm unsure if there was a communication barrier but this is America, respectfully, and we primarily speak English. Please have someone who speaks English work here and/or if she does speak English, she can use some customer service training. Thank you, I do wish your business the best.

Chicken kabob plate
Tish A.

The ONLY reason I don't give it 5 stars is because the garlic sauce was very bland and the cashier gal was not rude but wasn't social at all. Seemed shy, very quiet, didn't suggest anything. My husband took it as rude but I didn't. The 6 chicken chunks were huge, so tender, juicy, flavorful. The salad could have used more fatoush and lettuce. The rice was perfect. I'll definitely come back. I added spicy olives for that zang I felt was missing. Quaint little store with an array of products.

The catering order picked up on 09/08/22

I bought a loaf and it was incredible, we used it for French Toast! This market has everything you'll need for an authentic asian themed dinner. Fresh produce, chinese sausages, isles of sauces and spices, and shelves full of asian sweet treats as well. They also have pre-cooked take home section with egg rolls, rice dishes, and other lunch items. My daughter wanted a lot of the sweets. So, I bought a lot of cookies, candy, sauces, and a Japanese Maple Tree for only $35 dollars! Love this place and it's truly a gem in the neighborhood!

With great reviews on Yelp, choosing TBL was a no brainer. We had to drive about 20 minutes but it was not hard to find. They're right on Clovis Ave. they are in a small shopping strip next to the Sam's burgers, tattoo parlor and a barber shop. There is plenty of parking. Before you walk in don't forget your bags! They have a sign up reminding people to please bring their own bags. We were greeted right away when we walked in. It was nice and truly seemed genuine. Like, these people actually appreciate their customers. You can tell they do because the store is clean and organized. This was a very nice market with lots of veggies, specialty frozen foods and imported packaged foods. There is also hot food in the back if you need a bite to eat. The prices are reasonable and pretty average for what ive seen out there. We had a great experience here and will for sure be back!

This place had most of the basic vegetables for Asian & Mexican dishes. It made me so happy!…read more I only went to check it out but I ended up buying a few things I normally couldnt get at other markets. The people who worked there were so friendly. It smelled pretty clean for an Asian market. The aisles didn't feel cramped which was good. I can't wait to go back to get my ingredients! Definitely recommending this place for international groceries. Btw, I found some trays of frozen chicken skin for those who have kids that love deep fried chicken skin... lol. That was a definite win!

I also come here for Asian snacks, as they have the widest selection of Pocky, Peppero, Yan-Yan, Hello Panda, etc. This was the original store that we always used to come to for Asian food before it started appearing in regular grocery stores. They also have a solid selection of instant noodles, tea, boba, Asian dessert toppings, and pre-packaged drinks (they even have Thai tea, soju, and konjac jelly). The service is always good, the workers are helpful and quick to get you all checked out and packed up. I've had some not-so-great experiences here and there, but overall good. The store itself is very nostalgic for me, so I might be biased on an ambiance point-of-view, but overall I think the store is clean and easy to navigate.

I was craving Indian food and decided to order through DoorDash, going with the butter chicken,…read moregarlic naan, and mango lassi. Overall, I had a good experience with the food, although some items stood out more than others. ** Butter Chicken - 8/10** The butter chicken was flavorful, creamy, and tender. What stood out to me was that the flavor tasted more authentic than some other places where the dishes lean toward a more Americanized version of Indian cuisine. The seasoning and overall flavor made this an enjoyable meal. While it wasn't the absolute best butter chicken I've had, I really appreciated the more authentic taste and would order it again whenever I'm craving Indian food. ** Garlic Naan - 9/10** The garlic naan was delicious, and the portion was generous. It was the perfect accompaniment to the butter chicken, and honestly, I could eat this all day! This was my favorite part of the meal, and I will absolutely be ordering it again. ** Mango Lassi - 4/10** Unfortunately, the mango lassi was a disappointment. It tasted unlike any mango lassi I've had before, and not in a good way. Instead of the familiar sweet, fruity mango flavor I was expecting, it tasted predominantly like yogurt or milk, with very little sweetness or noticeable mango flavor. It may appeal to someone who prefers a more subtle flavor, but it wasn't what I was looking for. I personally wouldn't order it again. ** Service & Overall Experience** The staff were friendly and made sure my order was prepared and delivered in a timely manner, with everything included. I always appreciate when a restaurant takes the time to ensure an order is complete, especially when ordering through a delivery service. As for the ambiance, I can only comment on what I've seen online since I haven't visited the restaurant in person yet. The dining area looks decent, but I would rather experience it firsthand before giving a fair assessment. I'm looking forward to visiting in person next time, as I imagine the overall dining experience could be even better. **Final Thoughts** Overall, this was a satisfying Indian food experience, with flavorful butter chicken and outstanding garlic naan. The mango lassi, however, fell short of my expectations. If you're looking for Indian food with a more authentic flavor profile, I'd recommend giving this place a try. I'm glad I discovered it through DoorDash, and I'm looking forward to visiting in person next time!
