    Friendly service. Great hours for a quick item. Good selection of bread cake and other staples.

    Walfood Supermarket is located right on Bell Blvd. It is a convenient one-stop shop supermarket for…read morethose that are needing their asian groceries. There is a parking lot in the back of the supermarket but it is shared with Mad for Chicken and a few other stores on the same block. The supermarket is a good size and has everything you need from fresh vegetables, poultry, seafood to frozen foods (fish balls, soup dumplings) to ramen and sauces to packaged goods and snacks. It is clean. The prices are fair and about the same as other asian supermarkets in Little Neck or Flushing. There is a $10 minimum for credit cards. There were a good amount of cashiers and staff stocking the shelves. When I was checking out, the cashier didn't really interact with me but it is okay.

    Decent supermarket with a good range of variety that's close to the ones you'll find in Flushing,…read moregiven it's the only Chinese supermarket in the area. Produce is generally fresh, and the prices are reasonable - they have good sales, which will lure you in to stay and browse longer since they have no other similar competition. The parking situation here annoys me a lot. I'm sure the lot is shared by customers at the supermarket and MFC (and possibly the businesses next door), but they have an employee actively monitoring actual customers and cars coming in/out, and they can't even bother to make the lot safer and cleaner by putting back the carts (customers absolutely should do this anyway).

    I love this supermarket! Bluefin Tuna Day was amazing --…read moresuper fresh and beautifully displayed. The cashier was incredibly nice this time, which made the experience even better. I also love how clean, organized, and well-maintained the store is. Everything is easy to find, and the quality really shows. Definitely one of my favorite places to shop!

    I am updating my original review because Food Bazaar has now made it unmistakably clear that…read morenothing was actually fixed after my first complaint. After my original review, Merci D. (management) posted a polished public response suggesting that the issue had been taken seriously and addressed. That response now looks like pure corporate theater. I returned to the store and ran into the same ridiculous problem all over again: I asked a simple question about where to find Greek yogurt, and once again encountered employees who either spoke little to no English or were unable to provide even the most basic assistance. That alone would be bad enough, but the dysfunction did not stop there. The lines were absurdly long, and at exactly the worst possible time, several self-checkout kiosks were closed simultaneously. In other words, when the store most needed efficiency, it managed to manufacture delay instead. The attached photo speaks for itself. Shutting down multiple self-checkout stations while customers are stuck waiting in long lines is not just poor judgment; it is operational stupidity. This is not a minor inconvenience. It is a pattern. Customers should not have to wander the store like unpaid investigators because staff cannot answer a basic question, and they certainly should not then be rewarded for their trouble with needless delays at checkout because management cannot keep enough kiosks open to handle traffic. What makes this especially irritating is that Merci D. (management) had already publicly acknowledged the earlier problem and implied that corrective action had been taken. Clearly, it had not. Her response now reads less like genuine customer service and more like a performative block of text written to contain public embarrassment while leaving the actual dysfunction intact. At this point, the problem is bigger than rude service or inconvenience. This store appears to be poorly run at a basic operational level. If Food Bazaar cannot ensure that employees can communicate well enough in English to help customers locate ordinary items, and cannot keep sufficient checkout capacity open during busy periods, then it is failing at the most elementary responsibilities of a retail business. Food Bazaar had an opportunity to correct this after my first review. Instead, it seems to have chosen the cheaper and lazier option: issue a hollow public reply, pretend the problem was addressed, and continue subjecting customers to the same chaos. That is not professionalism. That is incompetence with a public relations filter slapped on top of it. Food Bazaar did not fix the problem. It dressed it up, lied about addressing it, and carried on with the same incompetence. At this point, Merci D.'s response looks less like accountability and more like a written receipt for empty promises.

    Living in Bayside without a car makes grocery shopping difficult. If I don't want to pay $2 for…read morethe bus that runs up Bell I can either walk 30 minutes each way to Waldbaum's at Bay Terrace (good for everything but far away), walk almost as far and across two highways to get to the Waldbaum's on Francis Lewis (again, has everything, but isn't as good as the Bay Terrace one), walk 15 minutes to Grande Mela market (more of a bodega), walk 5 minutes to Bell Farm (good for produce, pricey, no meat selections, basic grocery), or walk 10 minutes to C-Town. I usually just try to borrow my roommate's car to go to Waldbaum's and order FreshDirect otherwise, but if I'm in desperate need of groceries other than produce I head down to C-Town. C-Town is good for basics and has a good meat selection (unlike anywhere else within 15 minutes of my apartment), but their produce is often a little sketchy. I usually have a hard time finding un-bruised, fresh-looking fruits and veggies. Prices are decent, and there's an extensive frozen foods and dairy section, but for anything fresh I'd either go to Bell Farm or Waldbaum's (though neither of those can touch Whole Foods or the Greenmarket).

    We went here to buy some basic baking goods. I decided to get coffee as there were beans and a…read moregrinder. The grinder made a lot of noise and the coffee came out extremely course with some whole beans in the mix. Clearly the grinder was broken. I shrugged and moved on. I was a couple of aisles away when a manager approached me with the coffee bag in his hand and an expression on his face like he was smelling rotten onions. He was clearly irritated and wanted to know what my problem was that I ground and left the coffee. Feeling no guilt, I calmly informed him that the grinder was broken and showed him the coarseness of the grind as evidence. He asked me to join him at the coffee grinder as he was intent on giving me a lesson on how to operate the thing. Why I went along with him? Not sure. Usually I am not so patient and yielding. The setting was clearly on the line between auto-drip and fine. Undeterred, he thought to run the coffee through again. The noise was even louder than when I tried it. This time the grinder produced not only more partially ground coffee but also a shard of broken blade. Some more dramatic than myself might refer to this as, um, shrapnel. He sort of apologized. Not enough.
