Lotte does a outstanding job catering to the International consumer. They offer a lot of vegetables, fruits, spices, frozen meals unique to Indian-Pakistani cuisine. Tons of Latin, Middle Eastern Asian items as well. I picked up a few of my weekly items and tried some of the frozen Naan breads with potato baked in them, an onion-garlic one and plain. Also, Korean items and fresh, prepared food. What stood out was the food hall in the back offering Korean, Chinese, Indian, Pakistani, and Philipino food. SCORE!!

The food court is still sad (nothing is open, but maybe it's due to this being 3 pm on a week day?). They do have an alright prepared food section (separate from that food court).

For example, there is a whole shop inside this supermarket that specializes in Indian food.

Compared to the Indian stores in the bayarea this place was huge, the restaurant at the back was huge as well and can easily seat upto 50 people. They have a large menu selection covering snacks, breakfast, lunch and dinner. This is more of a bakery cum restaurant. We sampled some snacks and cakes before placing a bulk order for an event later that day. *Jelebi was decent with a hint of tartness. *The rasmalai cake was shockingly sweet in my opinion. I asked them to reduce sugar by 50% in my cake order for later that day and they complied with my request. End result- all the guests loved the cake. *onion samosas- surprisingly decent and pretty close to the ones we get in India. *stuffed mirchi- these were great as well *potato samosas- these were piping hot so we got a few of these for the party. They were not too large and tasted fresh.

I don't get out to the Sauson International Grocery as often as I used to, but I still make the…read moretrip 1-2 times a month for mainly one thing: some of the freshest and tastiest bread in all of the DMV. Every culture has their own interpretation of taking the basic ingredients of flour, yeast, salt and water and transforming it via various baking methods into their version of "bread." There is a long history of using circular oval shaped ovens in Asia and the Middle East as a way of both conserving space and to efficiently cook foods with even heat distribution and small footprints in otherwise cramped kitchens. In India these ovens are called tandoors while in Japan they are referenced as kamados. Sauson International Grocery has been in operation since 2011, and the owner, who everyone knows as "Mr. Rashid," is of Persian descent having emigrated from Iran. He is always super friendly and willing to answer questions I may have about the wide variety of Middle Eastern spices and foods this place stocks. Don't be surprised if you strike up a conversation with him, and he offers you a cup of wonderfully spiced tea and a cookie or pastry from the delectable dessert case. As some of the reviews have noted, parking is tricky. There is a small covered garage under the building. But you may have to park at the nearby church or on the street and then walk over to the store. This place is well known for their bread, which is being made throughout the day. I came a bit later today, so they had just finished making a few batches. But it's not uncommon to witness skilled bakers kneading and rolling, and then slapping the dough onto the circular metallic oven for a few minutes, before piping hot fresh bread emerges. The bread is amazing. It is pliable, without being overly chewy. It is slightly salty, with a great smoky almost charred flavor. I've had it cut into pieces and then dipped with hummus or rolled into gyros or used to sandwich kabob meat. And believe it or not, it's even pretty good as a PB&J. Everyone, and I mean everyone, I've introduced this product to usually asks: (1). What type of bread is this? and (2). Where can I buy it? Note: As of this review, the current price is $8.05 for FOUR large round pieces of bread. Apart from the bread, there is also a small butcher shop in the back, and a kitchen where hot foods like kabob platters are made. There is also a small seating area in front of the store, where folks can sip tea and relax while enjoying sweets from the display case. Sauson is a really cool place and while I usually go with the intention of only buying bread, it's not uncommon for me to walk out with a few bags of unique Middle Eastern groceries.

Also everything you want for Indian groceries. The best part of this place is their bakery and chaat counter. Bakery has puffs, samosas and various refreshing drinks. Right next to the bakery, they have samples for various other things you could buy from there. And then they have an awesome chaat section. Highly recommend paani puri. Try the medium flavor water with paani puri. My friends went all out ordering various chaats as you can see in my pics. Parking is easy to find here. Staff and service was great. I wish they had indoor seating. It was so hot to sit outdoors.

This is for the hole in the wall cafe in the back of the supermarket called Shanghai Restaurant…read more I haven't been to this supermarket in a long time. Having relocating to a new office in the area, I was craving some authentic Chinese food for lunch. Upon walking into the supermarket, I knew something smelled different. Gone (or under repair) is the wet market. No fish in tanks, no turtles swimming around and no clams or crabs over ice. Honestly, the place smelled better. However, was the restaurant with the roasted meals and Chinese entrees still there? Yes! $8.49 for a meal of rice and 3 your choice of sides (1 veggie + 2 meat choices), plus a soup. I added a ginormous sesame ball (filled w red bean paste. I was hoping for lotus but yeah for price of $1.99 not happening). Total of $11.11. What did I get? Beef tendon with radish (mostly if not all radish and chuck). I'd pass. Eggplant. Yep, I'll get again. Pork patty. Yep, I'll get again. A soup came with the meal. It was tomato. It was OK. So, will I come back again for a box lunch and sesame ball? Yep, I totally will!

I've been shopping at…read morethis store for over 10 years, and this was honestly one of the most disappointing customer service experiences I've had here. I've always appreciated Cocos Food for its fresh products, fair prices, and especially the kindness of the regular cashiers, who have usually been respectful and professional over the years. On this visit, however, there was only one register open with a long line of more than six people. Since I was in a hurry, I politely asked at customer service if I could check out there instead. The individual there, who appeared to be part of management rather than a regular cashier, initially said yes. Instead of helping me, he then walked away, called over people from the main line, and began assisting them first. After I had already placed my groceries down, he told me to step back and wait while he served others. His tone and behavior felt dismissive, rude, and completely lacking in professionalism. What made this especially frustrating was that the regular cashier at the open register seemed aware of the situation, and in all my years shopping here, I've never experienced this kind of treatment from the normal staff. This felt like poor judgment from someone who may have had a management role, which is even more concerning. I want store management to seriously address this situation. If this person is part of management, then this review is direct feedback that customer service and leadership need improvement. If he is not, then management should still look into this incident because his behavior negatively impacted a loyal customer's experience. I still value the store itself, but respectful treatment matters just as much as good products. I hope this review encourages accountability and prevents other customers from experiencing the same disrespect.
