The produce and fresh (they have butcher)meat prices are far cheaper than Harris Teeter and Food Lion, but the selection is limited. It's a great place to go for Latin American food items such as Plantains and Yuca, before I found this place I used to have to drive to Durham to buy these things. It's also great if you want authentic Mexican items, they even have handmade tortillas I'm not sure how much .English the staff speaks, but it's a great opportunity to practice your Spanish.

We came here today after eating at Rigos Pizza. The store…read moreis clean and very well stocked. I love that the price tags have the country of origin on them. It helps when you are looking for something specific because there are so many good choices. Many countries from Europe and the Middle East are represented and a lot from the Ukraine and Russia. I go in for the tea from Israel but they have tons of other countries teas as well, both in bags and loose. I only saw 2 employees, one at the register and one at the back of the store where you can purchase items like cakes, bread, cheese and cooked food. Both were pleasant and very helpful. I got a tea, a candy and some date filled cookies today. I will return for sure!

Another place that is a long time regular family favorite that I have never reviewed. Way over due…read more I never realized how lucky we are in Raleigh to have so many good Arabic bakeries until I tried looking for them in bigger cities (Atlanta, Philly, D.C.) that are apparently completely bereft of good Arabic groceries. Jerusalem Bakery & Grocery has most of what you need for cooking Arabic food I will say flat out its the best pita bread on the east coast. When i visited other cities family there would ask me to bring pita bread when I came. The meat, cheese and spinach pies are fantastic. The cheese pies are my personal favorites. The family that owns this place is really nice, and will be even more pleased and solicitous if you show a genuine appreciation for their food. Oh, and they have a dessert that I can never remember the name of, but which is also wonderful and difficult to find - it's the one made of filo dough with cheese inside and attar (the sweet sticky sauce) on top. I have yet to see it anywhere else in the U.S, and they do a good job of it. Like many bakeries, they bake early in the morning and sell until its gone. So best selection and quantity is going to be in the mornings. For the visit on Jan 7, 2025, I got 3 meat pies, 12 cheese pies, 4 pita bread bags, and 1 sesame date cookie package which is also a favorite of mine. Total $51.14. An important pro tip is that the pies and pita bread all freeze great. so go ahead and eat 1 pie while its warm, because it likely will be, and then quickly freeze the rest. Then, warm it up in a toaster oven.

The owners convinced me the spots were marks from mango 'juices'. Hence the 3 star review. 50% of the mangoes are rotten on day 2. How is that okay? I got a box from another Indian store for $33 a box but I had one bad fruit in the whole set. This is just terrible quality and the part where the owners try to pawn off a semi-bad fruit is even worse. I'll go to Grand India Mart in the future. On a side note I also got hot green peppers that have no heat at all. Sigh..

You can eat there on their covered patio on a picnic table, or you can drive home and enjoy the food in the comfort of your home. I live less than a mile from this joint, and every time I eat here, I am fully satisfied! The health ratings are always in the mid-to-high 90's - and if you go there in between lunch and dinner, you'll likely see them cleaning the baseboards with a toothbrush! (not joking, I really saw that one time!) The burritos here are, hands-down, the YUMMIEST burritos I've ever had (and I'm originally from California, home of the best Mexican food)! What makes them so special? I think it's the homemade tortillas. Not too many restaurants make homemade tortillas anymore. But it's so much more than that...when you take a bite, the burrito filling (standard meat, rice, beans, lettuce, tomato, lard) just melts in your mouth. It's almost like a fine wine that you just want to hold on the middle of your tongue for a few seconds before swallowing! My favorite is the carne asada burrito, which costs $4.95, and it will definitely fill you up. They unfortunately don't have tamales or menudo, but there are other places down Highway 98 that do. I love this place!
