I love the Asian supplies in this grocery store! They have odd things I can't find anywhere else,…read moreincluding frozen whole durians! The Vietnamese owner is the cashier, and while she's not on the floor during business hours, you can ask if an item is available. Ramen twelve- packs, hotpot soup bases, refrigerated greens, kimchi, tofu and a variety of eggs: Chicken, duck, quail and 100 year old eggs. There's also frozen prepared foods like dumplings, BBQ pork buns, spring rolls, and Chinese sausages. Want some frozen fish, crab, or shrimp or fish balls? They have it here! Joss sticks, altar candles (red), and Buddha statues available. Don't worry if the neon sign for "Open" isn't on: There's plenty of street parking on Niagara and side streets, and these are hard-working owners.

I checked to make sure they restock items often because the last time I reviewed a neighborhood…read morefavorite place someone cleaned out their Boba tea and Jackfruit in water and it's never been back. It's a well sized store considering it's in the city and they make use of every single inch of space. If it's Vietnamese they have it. If it's Asian or African they might have it too. Their frozen items are extensive. I think I counted three different kinds of fish heads alone (which...not something I'm gonna eat but it speaks to the variety of items). They are also very well stocked with snacks of all types, sweet or savory. They are a *little* bit more expensive than my usual go to Vietnamese store but it's worth it for the wide array of items and the boba tea of course.

The first thing to hit you is the smell. Rotten, salty fish. It smells like a rotten, fish market…read more No one there speaks English. I wanted to try a durian fruit, as I'd never had it before. But, after going there about 10 times, I finally began calling. Impossible to find a person that actually speaks English. Also, they only get the exotic fruits about once a month, or less. I bought a bag of mangosteens that had just come in, and every single one was rotten. I did finally buy a Durian. It cost about $75 at $15/pound. And, I bought the smallest one. It was okay, and I satisfied my curiosity. I'd never had it before, but it fit the description from the internet. Unless you're Asian, I would avoid this place. The fish smell alone is enough to make a westerner sick.

We need more Asian grocery stores in Buffalo!…read more Great selection of fruits, vegetables and meats that are not commonly offered in the area. Need instant noodles? They got it. I'm accustomed to a wider variety than most grocery stores in this area provides. Parking isn't hard to find. They also sell other products and have an atm on site. I come here from time to time when I'm in the area. But otherwise, I might go to the Asian grocery store across from Lowes on Niagara Falls Blvd.

Cute little African market that recently opened near me, so I decided to stop in to check it out…read more The cashier was very friendly and helpful. I browsed through the store just to see wjat they carried. They have a variety of merchandise. Food items, beauty products, hair pieces, decorative pieces for the home etc. The food selection is limited but seeing as thry are a speciality market, that is to be expected. They do have some frozen veggies and fish that caught my eye. Other food items inclued canned goods, dried beans, rice, sauces, powders etc that are good for african recipes. Not a great selection of any fresh produce, but I often need just one or 2 tomatoes, and instead of going to the store I can walk here, which I am excited for. The store is clean and the staff inviting. I will definitely be stopping there again on many occassions.

I decided to do a little test. If you buy their beef biryani in person, you pay $9.99 for a 24…read moreounce container. If you buy it through Uber or Doordash, they have a buy 1 get 1 free deal. With this deal though, you pay $15.99 for two 16 ounce containers. Calculating the per ounce weight, it's slightly cheaper to buy in person. This is assuming you're picking up the order. If you were having it delivered, it would surely be even more expensive when taking into account fees and tip. Hope this helps!

Chicken biryani & Tandoori was good. It's pretty cheap too if you are ordering for yourself only.read more

Two of us ordered a different pasta dish and they were great. One of us ordered a sandwich and it was phenomenal. Excellent cannoli and espresso.

Lots of products from Italy to buy, and we bought some dried pasta, extra virgin olive oil, and balsamic vinegar. A great choice for a delicious lunch. The decor is very cool.

My friend's House Sandwich was huge and filled with salami, arugula, roasted red peppers, and house-made mozzarella. Another friend's fried mortadella sandwich was incredible. And the fourth person in our party had a huge bowl of delicious ham and bean soup made in-house. We all had excellent espresso and superb cannoli. I have to mention the beautiful decor, which is very Italian islands. The place is a real treasure. Friendly staff, too. Dalfonso's is at 162 Allen Street in Buffalo, N. Y.
