This market used to have a cat. He'd usually be sitting on the front register chilling. That alone…read morewould be enough to vault it up into five star territory. It used to have a produce section, right in front of the front windows, a space now occupied by stacks and stacks of La Croix cases. I'm no fan of La Croix and I eat an apple and/or a banana most days but I can imagine how the current arrangement is working out better for their bottom line. They used to have kombucha on tap, something that had been sitting unused for awhile and was just recently removed. That was just laughably hipster to me. I'll drink kombucha in the bottle sometimes, which MM still has in their fridge, and I just had to wonder, do you really need kombucha on tap? Obviously, it turns out you don't. This market is on the small side, just packed with stuff, and they stay open late. It's what I imagine a New York City bodega is like. They have more energy drink selections than anyone should need and a very Detroit amount of blunt wraps behind the register. Backwoods and the like take up most of that wall. MM has the same mediocre prepackaged sandwiches, wraps and pasta salads as Marcus Market and I feel like I should know the name of the company that puts them together by now. For convenience sake I often grab em as sustenance on the way to work. They're nothing special but they get me through the day. Midtown Market has nowhere near the floor space, selection or general charm of Marcus, though, and it actually felt disloyal to use the abbreviation MM to refer to Midtown Market earlier in this review. They're friendly enough here, but me and the Marcus crew go way back and again, no cat is hurting this young upstart here. The thing is, Midtown Market is a little less out of my way going into work and that crucial five minutes can make me late, so I often find myself in here. Midtown Market ain't bad for what it is, they have a few staples here but if you're looking for more of a full on grocery store (with freshly made smoothies and tacos during certain hours) try the neighborhood OG market like 3 blocks away.

Even when you don't find exactly what you're looking for, it's hard to leave empty-handed here. The staff was okay -- not especially warm, but not rude either. Overall, I'd recommend this location if you're in the city and looking for a healthier grocery store with plenty of options.

So once cleaned now about 7am I put my chitterling pot on let heat for a minute then put in my chitterling and an 2hrs into cooking I added my red onion red pepper green pepper salt/ black pepper put the top on and let it cook for almost 4hrs W gradually checking on it in between time Each time I checked on them they was cooking as they should but now here it is down to the last hr of cooking I go to check on the and the bubbles are bubbling like hot lava (yes! Hot lav) so now at this point it's only 3 1/2 hrs when I usually cook them for four hours sometimes five.. so my reaction was that dang freezer burn and heck no, not these $30 chitterling they was sooooo slimy I couldn't believe it! This has nvr happened ever! I just thought that I would share my story Because when I went up to the market to tell my story and to see if they could give me some type of credit due to the fact of me spending $120on chitterlings they didn't even want to hear my story nor did they want to see the video that I recorded or the receipts And just plainly told me there's nothing they can do about it once there open that's it This was a market that I go weekly/monthly Im so disappointing how they handle my situation Sadly today was and will be my last time shopping here We're not talking about $5 or $10 being a waste, we're talking about $120 being a waste For future please do not purchase your chitterlings from this market you might get a bad batch!

Indian spices/prepackaged foods, convenience store goods, some staple groceries…read more Newish location for this oldish area favorite (on Wayne campus, just north of Warren at Anthony Wayne - parking can be a pain in the ass during class hours). A place to find whole and ground spices prevalent in Indian cuisine, in addition to ghee, many oil, rice, and flour options, and a large variety of prepackaged and quick-to-prepare Indian stovetop kits (I don't really care for these items, when making your own homemade dinners takes less than an hour in most cases - but if really pinched for time and craving certain flavors, have at it). You can also get convenience store dependables (junk foods, pantry tins/jars, plastic cups/cutlery, etc), and eggs, milk, butter, and a few kinds of produce in the back (i noticed okra). Where Meijers failed me (in my hunt for mustard seed oil and chick pea flour), Little Asia Mart saved the day. Worth taking a peek around.

However, they do have. Very limited stock and the prices keep on increasing as months are passing by. The staff is friendly and helps you navigate through. The place is a bit too small to hold up more than what it already does. Vegetables are normally fresh and I have never had any issues with the things I have bought here. But a gallon of milk $4.95 is a bit too much considering university foods sell it for $3.95 which is about 0.5 mile away. They do have other convenience store items here as well.
