I have personally been a customer of this store for years, almost every day, and I have never encountered or noticed any disrespect towards customers. On the contrary, the service has always been high, even better than in many other stores. As for the manager Lilit, I can only speak positively about her. From my personal experience of communicating with her, I can say that she has a high level of professionalism, and it is unacceptable to offend someone on a personal level. I have personally seen her benevolent approach to each customer. Although problems can arise in any store, this is not a sufficient reason to offend or treat a person disrespectfully. As for the general level of the store, I can confidently say that it maintains very high standards. read more

I've been coming to Golden Market for over 25 years, and I truly miss the days of the previous owners, Soorik and Ofelia. The level of care and customer service back then was completely different. Recently, I had a very disappointing experience with the current manager, Lilit. I returned chicken that was clearly uncooked--not for a refund, but simply to make them aware so it wouldn't happen again. Instead of handling it professionally, she became defensive, raised her voice, and insisted the chicken was cooked, essentially accusing me of lying. As a long-time loyal customer, that was very upsetting. I was respectful, but the way I was treated was rude and dismissive. This is not the kind of service Golden Market used to be known for. Because of this experience, I highly discourage anyone from going there. I will not be returning, and I will not recommend it to my family or friends. I truly hope management takes this seriously and brings back the level of respect and customer care that Soorik and Ofelia once provided. Btw I Think she needs to know that she is just a manager at local grocery store and she is super uneducated and low class. read more

I've been a customer of this incredible Armenian supermarket in Glendale, California, for years and I can't say enough good things! They bring a vibrant mix of Armenian, Iranian, and Mediterranean flavors under one roof. Every time I visit, it feels like a little taste of home especially the candy section. It instantly reminds me of my grandma's treats, just nostalgic and delightful! Their meat section is also a standout; the mortadella cold cut and sausages are exceptional so professional and rich in flavor, it's a must-try. Beyond that, they have a wonderful array of Persian snacks, cookies, and a wide selection of fresh produce. I'm always so happy shopping here; it's clean, well-stocked, and the staff are super friendly. There are always plenty of employees, so it never feels chaotic. The only small downside is that some of the refrigerated foods are a little pricey, but considering the quality, it's a fair trade-off. Plus, you can order hot foods to go! they grill up delicious meats right on site. Parking is at the back, which is super convenient, even if the front lot is a bit tight. Overall, this is a gem in Glendale, and I highly recommend it! read more

Great little neighborhood market that has the best tomatoes and cucumbers! Any type of produce and herbs are good quality and fresh! I also love grabbing some mint leaves and basil here; Golden Market is a small international grocery store that specializes in Eastern European and Middle Eastern goods. From Non-Perishable items to the Deli counter and to the pre-made grab and go section that offers Armenian/Persian/Russian goodies; there are lots of neat products. If your familiar with Karina's Cakes (a bakery in Glendale) they got a small fridge section of the bakery's popular items like :honey cake sheet and birds milk cake sheet. Service is quick and friendly. read more

Golden Market is a small family-owned grocery store specializing in Armenian, Persian, & Russian staples. Whenever I visit my beautiful sissy, Melineh, she always has a delicious spread comprised of delicacies she's purchased from here. The produce is always fresh and the lavash is soft. I love the Armenian String Cheese, especially the one marinated in spices, and the Russian Caviar is some of the best I've had. They also sell pre-made Persian and Armenian food. The edible Persian Rosebuds are so adorable and are a great garnish for cocktails and charcuterie boards. You can even steep them for tea. They also sell beer, wine, & Liquor, cakes from Karina's, and have a deli & butcher counter too. read more

Very good service Workers are very nice. All food is fresh and good. I always will do my shopping from here.

Love this lil gem of a market, fresh veggies and fresh meat galore. Will always visit this market while in town

This place is extremely expensive. Too expensive. Their prices are out of this world and the quality of their items not so good.

Very rude people tried supporting small business, but ended up being not treated well by the family that runs the store do not recommend going here asked if they had any extras in the back because what they had on display was a little old and rotten, and they replied rudely to me saying it was good but when another of the race asked, they said they said they would run to the back and get them some fresh vegetables read more

Look for Lida at the cash register. She's a gem! Remember to greet to gentleman keeping the fresh produce available. They work hard and are often overlooked. Great butcher. Very busy, and that's a good sign. Fresh meat, fresh produce, well-stocked. Don't forget the Persian ice cream. read more

Everything here expensive and bad quality. Some products are not fresh. Customer service nice.

This is a Armenian store the team was so kind i love this store and i am shopping every day with this store .

Very good, Local market in the area. They have good food all kinds of Mediterranean food. It has a big parking lot space available for your shopping, but the management is not as good, they are very-very rude. Their problem is that They don't have good customer service @ all . They should go to other markets in the area to learn good customer service. read more

We stopped by this market after lunch at the nearby Shamshiri. We went into the shop out of curiosity, but we were very glad we did. Their selection was excellent! Everything appeared super fresh and the staff was helpful. This was much better than any of the Armenian markets we have closer to where we live, I'd even consider making a trip out just to pickup some goods from them. We will definitely be back! read more

My husband and I this happened into this treasure of a grocery approx 15 years ago during our visits the Shamshiry Restaurant. The minute you walk in - you are greeted with tantalizing, complex aromas that tell you that you are in for a special Armenian food store, we always find something new to try! They have the BEST cheeses - including five kinds of Feta cheese and. Their smoked fish, meats, and homemade fresh dishes are varied and delicious- the produce superb and not available in other stores; mysterious jars, boxes, and cans contain every kind of garnishes and taste adventure - they have Middle eastern desserts and spices; and the fragrance of a myriad of whole coffee beans fresh-ground coffees ... What's not to love?! read more

I've been going to this market for over 2 decades. Not only is the produce fresh, but the shelves are fully stocked. In addition, when Lida is working, she always greets me with a smile and asks me about my family. Lida also knows all the products and recommends the best pastry. read more

I was more window shopping than anything but they sure offer a lot of goodies that you won't find in an American market. The deli section is what caught my eye - I would've loved to try out some of the food items available. I ended up purchasing a bottle of Armenian carbonated water. read more

Golden Market - Armenian goodies - Grocery Near Me - Glendale, California

I love coming here for the variety of international products. It's convenient and always well-stocked

Okay...If you are single and can't cook Armenian and Persian food. Go inside the Golden Market ...go to your right....and head over to the premade food area. You want kebabs? Fessenjoon? Ghrome Sabzi? Lappe? Got it! Buy a whole bunch of it and take it home. You can impress your fiancé and tell him/her you made it yourself. But don't tell your mum...cos she'll disown you. It's sooo good. The Borsht there is so good...you'll slap your grandmother. Don't do that! But it's *that* good. While you wait! It's fresh after all...head to the aisles...and pick up fruits and vegetables...at great prices...and see what kind of food they have from your country. Last time I was there...they had British Digestives on sale. read more

Quality products. Excellent if you're into a Mediterranean diet. A big plus is their butcher shop. The uncooked kabob meat/chicken is great for home cooking. read more

Conveniently located by Ralph's to compliment what's missing in the major supermarket. Impressive selection of Buckwheat grains, Eastern Europeans favorites (on my photos) as well as herbal, berry, fruit and black teas. Fresh solid Persian cucumbers are $1.69 lb. Fast but not very friendly service at cash registers. read more

I agree with the review saying zero customer service. Someone cut in front of me with knowing that I was in line (so clearly intentional), and the cashier let the person pay before me (also intentional, because she looked at me for a little while as soon as he put his stuffs at the counter). Whole time, she did not say anything, and I didn't say anything back. I am back to Ralphs and Big Square. read more

dont know about all cashiers but one in particular I noticed when shopping, needs to be taught to say "THANK YOU" to the customers! and hello when approaching the counter! will no longer shop there! read more

Customer service is zero here . I don't understand why all the employees are so rude and unhappy. I have been there numerous times and everytime I experience a new kind of rudness from the staff and I tell myself next time I'm going to say something and I just say forget it. I will try this place once again and will no longer shop there if I feel the same treatment. Management please do something, play some upbeat music in the background perhaps that would put the staff in some good spirits. read more

One of the Best Grocery stores in Glendale, friendly and good prices

I want to update my review based on the current Coronavirus situation. This market is so clean, organized, and their service is outstanding even during this hectic time.

It's truly a one stop shop, great service and everything you could possibly need. I don't have the time to go to several markets and am so glad I can get everything I need here. Thank you to the management and staff for such a great shopping experience every time! read more

A good selection for a small grocer. Fantastic prices on FRESH produce. They are very friendly and have great customer service. They have a deli with fantastic meat selection, also have pre-marinated, just go home and cook! I'll put it this way, I try to eat 4 pieces of fruit a day as well as 2 serving of vegetables with dinner. My weekly cost for produce is UNDER $10. I wont ever buy produce from Ralph's again : ) read more

This place is a gem. It's small but immensely packed with the spices, pita breads, oils, and other delicacies that are not available to the usual grocery stores. They just about closed, and really early too, due to rearrangement but the lady owner was kind and helped me get the items right away. I would have to go back here whenever I'm around the area. read more

This store is so cute and happy to see they're still running and have fresh vegetables available. I always get my rock candy and Persian cucumbers here and they luckily always seem to have them in stock. read more
