I just discovered this place because I wanted to try Habibi Shawarma. We went on a Sunday around…read morenoon and it was a madhouse. We had to park by Pho Thien. It was a short walk over. They have a couple spots that you can order food like at the Habibi Shawarma and Taqueria. They have a seating area if you want to eat there. Jibek Jolu has prepared foods at the hot food bar as well as by the register. The hours of operation are kind of weird for the food places. In the Halal Meats section, they have grilled kabobs, fried chicken, and rotisserie chicken that are ready to eat. They have a large produce section. I like that they have a variety of international foods like American, Middle Eastern, Asian, European, Central Asian, and Latin American. Prices can vary depending on what you get. I would have to come back on a weekday when it is less chaotic. I would give this 5 stars but because of the weird hours for the food places, it gets a 4.

Very impressed by this market. Family members have been…read moregoing here for years. This was my first time shopping here. I was looking for some dates and ended up actually shopping. The fruits and vegetables were looking exceptionally good. Especially the Michigan Honeycrisp Apples. Ended up eating one in the car. So sweet and crisp. Like it was just picked. Love how apples were not dosed with all those pesticides. Prices were decent. Will definitely make this my good to. I love how there is a huge variety of items. (from here and abroad) They even carry Amish chicken! Which has become a family favorite. Store layout makes everything easy to find and easy to navigate.

I'm just a lone lady, hitting up a low-budget bodega for a Valentine's Day dinner consisting of…read moreclearance-priced Fuego-flavored Takis so she can go home, sit on her couch with a bunch of cats, hit 'refresh' on her computer 10,000 times, and watch a marathon of HBO's brutal prison series, 'Oz'. Don't cry for me, Argentina. This is basically my dream evening. Alone doesn't mean lonely for this little lady. I've got my opinions to keep me warm. Hashtag Favorite Valentines. After sitting in mind-numbing traffic for a 3-hour drive from the north shore, I started to get the 4th meal hunger pangs, but was dreading the thought of going out to eat on Valentine's Day and having to look at people who weren't stars of the show 'Oz', my current obsession, if yo haven't figured that out already. I decided to utilize the #3 speed dial on my phone and put in a take-out order at Downers Grove's Thai Cafe... only everyone else in the area had those same plans so instead of my order taking the typical 15 minutes, it was going to take 35. My plan was to wait it out in the strip mall parking lot and go in when could see my order come up through the window so I would have to talk to as few people as possible, but then I saw Downtown Food Mart just a storefront away in the same strip, and decided I'd spend my time in the rather dicey looking convenience mart in hopes of them having Takis, my favorite snack/breakfast, lunch, dinner food. I go in, and think, 'erm, this place is kinda set up like a crap hole.' Empty displays, weird non-stacking of 89 cent cat food cans that for whatever reason made my blood boil, and no Takis in the snack and chip aisle. What the hell? This place is NOT for anyone with a hint of OCD. I still had a good 15 minutes before my bulk Thai food order would be ready, so I decided to continue to peruse every aisle, and the more I looked, the more I liked. They had a pretty good selection of wine. It's over-priced, obvi, but pretty much all the wines are discount wines anyone so still nothing that'll break your bank. I was super pissed about the non-presence of Takis until I got to the marquee, front and center stand by the register that was chock full of Takis. Like, 4 different kinds, and all were super cheap at $1.39, compared to the $2.49 I'd pay at other grocery stores. Bada bing! I'm checking out and the guy behind the counter doesn't mention anything about the stupid non-holiday that's occurring, which I greatly appreciate, and instead asks if I like spicy stuff. Well, heck yes! I live for spicy! And then he proceeds to give me his spicy food recommendations and we swap ghost pepper stories for the next 5 minutes and part by exchanging names. His name is Raj. Raj is awesome. I will be back to purchase more Takis (possibly also overpriced wine and cat food if the hour is right) from Raj.

It supports local sellers, making a larger impact on our local community. It's right between the DMV and the Ace Hardware. Note: anyone can shop here. Don't be thrown by the co-op labeling.

You won't regret it!

They have local produce year-round, even in winter, and some of the specials are really good. I'm really happy to have bulk spices available, and they have things here it's hard to find elsewhere (more kinds of organic cheese than Whole Foods, and they regularly carry organic parsnips and affordable organic citrus, for example). They had some local plums that were SO DELICIOUS that I've never seen anywhere and will definitely be looking for again. I also really like that you don't have to buy produce wrapped in plastic (cucumbers; bell peppers). The grab and go pizza is really tasty, and I'm a big fan of Bakehouse, who does their bread. They have cronuts every Friday. They even sell alcohol (which I don't really buy but maybe you do). They have a bunch of prepared foods and coffee, and they host regular events like a bring-your-own craft night, or a presentation on Mexican cuisine. Very cool. Service is friendly and the store is well-lit, with lots of parking and a small dedicated parking section right by the doors. Checkout is at these weird desks that don't really work (I guess there wasn't room for a real counter or a conveyor?) Overall, prices are somewhat high, and the canned good selection and frozen produce selection is fairly small. But if you like organic produce, bulk spices and high-quality baked goods and you're willing to pick and choose, shopping the specials, you should add it to your rounds.
