This review is based on one visit in January 2022…read more In era of a pandemic, grocery runs are major outings, and sometimes the only outing in a week. So it is only fitting that the first review I write in 2022 is on a grocery store. Ranch Fresh is good - the store is spacious, brightly lit, clean, well organized, well ventilated, cheerfully decorated. The fresh meat is really fresh. Just like other Asian supermarkets, most fresh meat items are sold by weight behind a butcher counter. There is some prepackaged meat if you prefer to grab and go. There is a big produce section with great varieties. Pricing is higher than its sibling store Field Fresh (Scarborough) and just about the same as Full Fresh (Markham). I cannot comment on services, because I didn't require any assistance. There aren't many Asian grocery stores in Newmarket. I trust Ranch Fresh is a good addition to the neighbourhood, providing diversity, variety and convenience.

We ended up going home with a few things and we loved everything so far. It feels like a little bougie local boutique meat shop when you walk in, very clean. They also have samples closer to 12pm.

Definitely recommended if you're in the area!!

Disreputable and Dishonest business practices at this store. This week pork spare ribs were on sale…read morefor $2.38 lb. Went in Thursday morning at 9am on the last day of sale and there were none. I was informed by a guy behind the counter that there would be more in the afternoon. I went about the store to do some other shopping and noticed when I went by the meat counter a few minutes later the sign behind the counter had been changed to a price of $3.59 lb. , still no ribs as expected. I went back to the store later that day at 6pm and was informed that there were no ribs available to sell. Would you believe that I went back to the store just as soon as it opened up today at 9am to see the meat counter filled with ribs to sell now at $3.59 lb. This is blatantly Dishonest business practices and although they are a neighborhood grocer they have lost my business period and I will make sure to tell my neighbors just how they ripoff the consumer. I wish I could give them no stars.

I can foresee that parking will be an issue in the future when all the other shops and restaurants are open.

Tip: This store has the best pasta section…read more Last Saturday, I was shopping at my usual Walmart in the Copper Creek part of Markham. I was low on orzo. Sadly, this store didn't have any. It had the more popular pastina as the only small pasta. Bummer. I needed orzo. While in Aurora, I passed by this Longo's. I know that Longo's has a decent selection of pasta. This store ended up exceeding my expectations. I had been in this plaza a month or so ago. It has Wild Wings and Booster Juice that I had visited. It was time to go grocery shopping here. I found a parking spot fairly close to the exit. I don't mind walking a bit further to get to the entrance. It's better to be closer to the exit when you're hauling groceries. That thought could be just me. Prepared sandwiches greeted me. I was transfixed by the prepared foods. I love the empanadas at Longo's that you can grab and heat up. I also liked seeing meal kits. The floral section was pretty. It was nice looking at the orchids. There were lots of roses. I found the pasta section. Each Longo's has a similar setup, which makes finding what I need to be a breeze. This store has an extensive selection of pasta. I saw heart-shaped pasta just in time for Valentine's Day. I was happy to see small pasta varieties by Italpasta. The big, um, small four were all there: - Acini de pepe - Alphabet - Orzo - Baby shells I was elated to grab a box of orzo. I felt so accomplished finding what I needed. I was intrigued seeing charcoal-greyish khorasan pasta. I may need to return to give it a try. Naturally, I wandered over to the bakery section. Butter tarts. Cheese sticks. Croissants. Cake. I wanted it all. There was a cake loaf sale. If I bought a loaf, I got a second one for free. I ended up getting banana walnut and carrot. I got the nicest woman at the checkout. She looked at the loaves and was surprised that this deal was going on. There were a bunch of BOGO deals, including cosmic apples that I was tempted to get. I had my Longo rewards barcode scanned. I then paid with a credit card. Done! I put all my items in my reusable bag. I thanked the woman and happily left with my goods. The loaves are yummy. I tend to have a slice of each flavour when I feel the need to have a snack. I'm glad that I got them. I enjoyed shopping here. When I'm in the area again, I'd stop by for my grocery needs. (35)

Best staff , always clean and orderly…read more This is the place I go for produce and meat as they are top quality . This week I dropped in very early just after the store opened to get some fish and produce for my wife's birthday dinner. The young man behind the meat counter came around and helped me select the proper fish, he then went out back and selected some fresh shrimp for me as well. Exemplary customer service. Produce at this location is the highest quality in town so I picked what I needed and left in short order with everything to make her special dinner. Rave reviews followed later that day. Thanks Longo's .

We recently celebrated a family birthday at fishbone for lunch and it was a great experience from…read moreservice to food. The restaurant is brightly lit with lots of natural sunlight, the decor is a mix of elegance and rustic at the same time. It's got an open and inviting feel. Our server was fantastic - very patient with a large group like ours, able to tell us right off the bat what is and is not customizable, recommendations of when to order to ensure flow works out. Food: Charbroiled octopus - one of my favorite dishes I tried - perfectly cooked, has a nice char, good meaty bits but not chewy, has a really nice chili oil on it. I can not stress how much I recommend getting this if you enjoy seafood. 5/5. Chorizo appetizer - comes out in a little pig plate with an open flame underneath. The chorizo itself is good with a nice spice, dense meat. The best part of this dish (IMO) is the spiced apple sauce on the side that cuts the richness of the sausage with a sweet and tangy apple and a little spice kick. 4.5/5. Bread - fresh baked bread with butter, a pumpkin jam and cheese. Everything on that plate works so well together. I definitely recommend this as an all rounding pleasing appetizer - 5/5. Beets - the beets were fresh with a vibrant orange colour. The apple, walnut and goat cheese all work together. I do wish this dish had a bit more but it works. 4.5/5. Brussel sprouts - amazing deep fried brussel sprouts - makes me want to always deep fry them for life. The spicy harissa sauce works well with the sprouts. Crunchy peanuts on top add both a texture and nuttiness that is refreshing to the brussel sprouts. 5/5. Oysters - super fresh, absolutely delicious without any condiments needed. Loved them. 5/5. Paella - this is definitely large enough for 2 people to eat so consider sharing unless you have a monster appetite. As with all their plates, it is beautifully constructed. The shrimp are huge and meaty. Mussels are plentiful, lots of chorizo and bay scallops. The rice has that really nice briny seafood flavor from the broth. It was just a teeny tiny bit overly salty to my taste but it's cut with the dollops of sour cream. Has this really nice low level heat that just works without burning your mouth. 4.5/5. Lamb sirloin - great crust on the lamb and cook as well. Flavorful sear and crust on the lamb with a soft tender meaty interior. Can't go wrong with- 5/5. Branzino - delicious flaky and light with a great grill. If you're interested in a fresh fish, this is a good choice. Was a special on the menu - 5/5. Prices: Fine dining pricing but you get the excellent food, service and experience for the price.

We came here for our anniversary dinner and had a very enjoyable meal. Fishbone offers a…read moreMediterranean menu with bold vibrant flavours. We started the meal with peach with baratta salad which was so refreshing. Next we got the grilled octopus which was nicely charred but I have to say the amount of octopus is pretty small for a dish that's almost $30. When I saw paella on the menu, I knew I had to get it. It was topped with seafood including 2 giant prawns, clams, mussels and sausages. The rice was cooked perfectly with bold flavours. However I felt that the seafood was slightly undercooked. We told our server and he asked the kitchen to cook us new shrimps right away. I would def recommend sharing this entree as the portion is enough for 2. We finished our meal with an affogato, which is no longer on the menu but our waiter kindly let us order. We loved the decor and vibe at this restaurant!

We came on a very cold winter day and the upper floor (main dining area) was noticably warmer. We were seated right away without a reservation. Our server was very upbeat, friendly, and accommodating to some of our customization requests (e.g. certain salad ingredients and dressing on the side, substitute shrimps with extra scallops, etc.). Food came out relatively quick (there were only 1-2 other occupied tables when we were there). Service was excellent. The music playing in the background was a combination of hip-hop, R&B, and jazz. The dining room had a casual and relaxed ambiance, with a somewhat dark lighting and fake candle on every table. We got the Seafood Platter for 2, but there was enough food for 4-5 people. It came with 2 big pieces of salmon, a whole "market fish catch of the day" (not sure what fish it was, but it tasted like swordfish and was very tasty), 2 lobster tails, crab legs, baby octopus, squid / calamari, scallops, shrimps (which we opted to change for extra scallops), and some microgreens on top for garnish. We could choose to have the seafood grilled, fried, or a mix of both - we chose the grilled option. All of the seafood came on a long wooden board, with lots of butter at the bottom (I wish they didn't put any / so much butter!). The Seafood Platter came with a side of grilled vegetables (rapini, asparagus, carrot) and baby potatoes. We added on an extra plate of the grilled vegetables and potatoes, as well as Arugula Salad. The variety of the seafood in the Seafood Platter was excellent. They were very generous with portion size. Everything was really tasty and I loved the charred grill mark, especially on the scallops. They pre-cracked the crab legs and lobster tails, making it easier to eat. The crab and baby octopus came as a surprise (to our delight!), because the menu didn't say that the platter would come with those 2 types of seafood. The "market fish catch of the day" came as a whole fish and de-boned (just the filet and skin). I liked this more than the salmon, which was cooked well done. This restaurant lives up to its name - excellent place for seafood.

It was by far the worst restaurant Ive been to in 10 years. We went for their mothers day brunch,…read moreand we thought that we could order from the main menu but it was not available (ok fine...) so we were forced to order their $55 prix fixe menu that was totally not worth it for the most completely underwhelming meal ive ever had. I started with the yogurt parfait, it was like 5 small scoops of warm yogurt with a sprinkle of granola and maybe 3/4 of a strawberry with 4 blueberries. After getting that I knew the steak and eggs I ordered was not going to be great. As expected, the steak was for sure sous vide before slapping it on the grill given that it was mushy in texture and when I asked the waitress before ordering if she could cook mine more rare she told me that the chefs make all the steaks at medium (that shouldve been a red flag that she didnt ask how she would like my steak cooked). It came with unseasoned home fries and 2 pieces of the driest toast with no butter? We asked our waitress for some condiments and butter and she completely forgot and we had to ask her a few times before she came back with just butter (we scoured the restaurant for some ketchup). The sunny side eggs that came with it was mediocre, but how can you mess up eggs, right? The dessert I ordered the creme brulee which was the best part of the meal (which isnt saying much). My brother also ordered the creme brulee but his tasted completely different... this already tells me how inconsistent the kitchen and staff are. The whole meal costed us $455 and this included the autograt of 20%. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? This was for 6 mothers day brunch meals and a kids pasta. The service was non existent and the food was absolute trash. My 9 year old niece couldve made a better meal with her eyes closed. With $455 we couldve had a lobster dinner for a family of 6. There really is no difference of getting robbed for real and eating at this place, you both lose money and get absolutely nothing out of it.
