Fresh World International Market exceeded every expectation I had. This is the kind of place you…read morealmost don't want to tell people about because it's such a wonderful hidden treasure. Their seafood department deserves special recognition. The fish is exceptionally fresh, and the employees are knowledgeable and happy to prepare it however you prefer. That level of customer service makes a huge difference. The international grocery selection is one of the best I've seen. They carry authentic products from many countries, including items that are nearly impossible to find elsewhere. If you enjoy cooking international cuisine, you'll probably leave with more than you planned to buy. Another thing that impressed me was how clean and organized the store is. Everything is neatly displayed, making shopping easy and enjoyable. The staff is approachable, patient, and always willing to answer questions or help you find what you need. I was also amazed by the flower section. I purchased gorgeous roses at a great price, and they looked fresher and more beautiful than flowers I've seen at many traditional grocery stores. The fruits and vegetables were equally impressive--beautiful, fresh, and in excellent condition. Fresh World has earned a loyal customer. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for outstanding quality, exceptional service, and one of the best international grocery shopping experiences in the area. Five stars without hesitation.

Snacks by the register were good, not too many people in line and went through a manned register. I would say the only main downside is the turn out onto the Sterling Road that gets you back to the main road is a bit of a nightmare since traffic keeps coming off of Pacific and the cross-traffic out of the Target and rest of the complex can have you waiting for a while. This needs a stop sign or a light.

I was thrilled to see Whole Foods take over the spot where Best Buy used to be. This meant that we…read morecould now walk there, so we wouldn't have to deal with the horrible parking situation at Plaza America. Like others who have also reviewed the new one, I, too, envisioned it would be like the ones in Fair Lakes and Ashburn. But, alas, no :( Still, it is far better than the old location. While this one doesn't offer any seating areas where one can order food, it is more spacious. Thus, their produce section is larger than the meat and seafood sections. Although they brag about having a huge cheese selection, it's about the same size as it was before. The problem regarding the size of the place is most likely because Reston doesn't have a spot for a huge store. Unless they were to find a plot of land in a good location, then build a free-standing one. That would be pricey! We think the aisle signs could be better labeled. For example, we wanted to get some tofu, but despite wandering around, I couldn't find it. Finally, I saw an employee and asked him. He directed me to a refrigerated case that was near the bakery and sushi counter. Otherwise, we found everything we wanted to get. So, yes, we will return...but not to do all our shopping there. They don't call it "Whole Paycheck" for nothing.

It's a smallish store, meaning it doesn't always offer the selection of some others in the area, but it also means it's not overwhelming. More importantly, to me, it means it's the kind of place where they recognize me, even after coming less frequently, and greet me and chat with me. It's very welcoming and friendly and in a huge chain, that's rare.

Inflation is real, but back in the day, I could get five grocery bags of food for $25. Those days are over. Do I think it's still competitive? Yes slightly, but not going out of my way. Aldi and Lidl are a better bet. To its credit this location, is dated but quite clean. It is obvious the employees take pride in it. That alone is a positive development. They do have some deals on picnic style foods. Plenty of nearby parks. Checkout was a cinch. I like it but don't love it. The folks working here care, and I do wish them the best.
