    Looking for an awesome Indian Grocery store? The Patel Brothers store has an amazing selection, clean and easy to find items. Customer service is also good and prices are reasonable.

    Patel Brothers of Troy has been around before I was around. Lol. Servicing the Indo-American community of Troy and surrounding areas. It was a tiny store in the corner of a strip plaza on the north east side of Dequindre road and Big Beaver Road in Troy. Owned by the Patel Brothers, Mr. Bharat Patel always being the friendly face, one got to see when visiting this establishment. My dad used to take me here, for the times he needed Indian food specific items, since he was the "cook" at our house. For mom hardly ever cooked. Over time...dad and then mom passed on, but this store is still here in Troy. But until recently, they finally decide to expand. And expand they did. They bought the old Farmer Jack building (I think it was Farmer jack or something similar) and put the new Patel Brothers of Troy here. So folks, its now Rochester road and not Dequindre road. Its big, spacious, clean, lots of employees, 4 bagbelt driven cash registers. And still the friendly and ultra knowledgeable face, although much older Mr. Bharat Patel greets you, when he sees you, while walking around or supervising his employees. Always ready to lend a hand, or point out to you something you cannot find.

    I agree with the previous review on it. Patel Brothers has def been around and catered to this area since I've existed and been in Troy haha. I remember that this place at their Dequindre and 16 Mile (Big Beaver) location was our go-to for Indian groceries and DVDs until the emergence of numerous other Indian grocery stores. It looks like they decided to upgrade from the looks of my photos, you'll notice they really have. It's like they took part of the plaza that was once Farmer Jack and added it to their original space making it look like a national grocery chain specifically for Desi products. I didn't even know it was the same Patel Brothers that relocated from their older location until I saw the owner who did not recognize me. Of course, the last time he saw me was sometime between 11-13 or so and now I'm a big boy haha. Point is he didn't notice me... This is the 'Sistine Chapel' of Indian groceries in the area and by far the largest that I have come across. Definitely worth checking out!!

    If you are looking for Indian groceries this is a good place to come. They have a fresh section with your typical veggies you find in desi foods. You can purchase coconut water, leche juice etc. they have a big frozen foods section, they have frozen parathas, samosas single dinners. Does mix. Spice boxes. I like their fresh snacks area, they have some hot mixes and chudwa etc. customer service is not that great. But they have a lot of things you could be looking for. This is the largest Patel brothers in probably Michigan. They have other locations as well.

    They have been around for a while and every 10 years (or so it seems) have expanded. This latest one resembles the store on Devon Avenue in north Chicago. A lot more variety, even more competitive prices and lots of room. Will be back as often as possible, if my commute takes me via that spot. Prices are very competitive and lots of fresh groceries. I like the choice of bulk fresh pickle and bulk snacks. Quick checkout.

    they had everything! such a well kept store and I love that…read morethey have a food court. will definitely be back

    Newly designed 168 Asian Mart:…read more One of my favorite things to do is take people on what I jokingly call international food tourism around Metro Detroit. Not because I'm trying to convert anyone into a foodie. I simply enjoy watching people discover how much of the world exists beyond the handful of grocery aisles they've known their entire lives. For many Americans, walking into an authentic international market can be surprisingly intimidating. We become accustomed to recognizing brands, labels, and packaging. Remove that familiarity and suddenly a routine grocery trip becomes an exercise in navigation. My route usually starts in Clawson at Noble Fish. Anyone who only knows Noble Fish today would have a difficult time understanding what it used to be. The original operation was tiny. You walked into a modest Japanese grocery store and somehow found one of the best sushi counters in Michigan tucked away inside. The closest comparison I can make is the scene from *Wayne's World* when Wayne opens a random door and discovers a room full of highly trained ninjas. You weren't expecting it, which somehow made it even better. Over the years demand did what demand does. The restaurant grew. The market grew. White Wolf arrived. Additional space was absorbed. What was once a small hidden destination has evolved into something much larger while still maintaining the character that made people seek it out in the first place. From there I usually take people to the plaza where ZZang's BBQ is located. I call it the toy store. The plaza contains restaurant supply stores, bakeries, specialty grocers, and enough cookware to make most home cooks reconsider their life choices. There are roasted meats hanging in windows, commercial equipment sitting on shelves, and ingredients most people have never seen before. For newcomers, it is often the first moment they realize these foods were never designed for tourists. They were built for communities. The next stop is H Mart. By this point people have usually relaxed. The initial hesitation disappears and curiosity takes over. Instead of asking what something is, they begin asking how it's used, how it's prepared, and what they should try first. Then we arrive at 168 Asian Mart. Located in Madison Heights on John R Road, 168 has become one of the largest Asian grocery destinations in Michigan. Recent expansion and renovation have transformed the store into something far beyond the market many people remember from years ago. The footprint has grown dramatically, the selection has expanded, and the new food hall has turned the location into a destination rather than simply a place to shop. What I appreciate most about 168 is that it serves as a culmination of everything people experienced throughout the day. The market itself represents dozens of cultures and cuisines under one roof. The food hall allows visitors to sample dishes from across Asia without committing to a full restaurant experience. Just outside, the neighboring plaza connects visitors to an authentic Lebanese marketplace and restaurant, creating an experience that extends well beyond a single grocery store. What starts as a shopping trip often becomes something else entirely. People arrive worried about buying the wrong thing, unable to read half the packaging, and unsure where to begin. A few hours later they're filling baskets with ingredients they had never heard of before and discussing what they plan to cook when they get home. That transformation is probably why I keep bringing people here. Not because the markets are exotic or that the foods are unusual. Because every trip reminds people that entire communities, traditions, and cuisines have existed around them all along. They simply hadn't taken the time to walk through the front door. I love being a personal Food Tour Guide

    Place: This place is super nice and cool! Very spacious and…read moresafety measures are set for COVID-19. Service: The service is nice and there is a hidden Babel restaurant inside the store. They are super patient and can make the food right on the spot. Food/price: The food is pretty good for the quantity and quality. The price did go up from the previous menu but makes sense during these times. Last time I checked the kabob is 1.50 each for 10 of them (the deal was a little confusing for me so I did not look into it). I would have to say that you NEED to buy the hummus, garlic, and cucumber dip for the bread or you will miss out! Audience: The audience is good for families and they have an amazing catering option. Recommend/tips? I would recommend and try the mixed tray if you are confused.

    Updated review: Since my 1st visit I've bought more things…read morefrom here, including hot items from the grill area and salads from the deli. They have a great menu of made to order hot items including kafta kabob and pita sandwiches. You can either call in your order and have it ready when you arrive or place your order at the back counter and shop while you wait. Everything from the grill/deli has been fresh, delicious and worthy of return visits. I recommend this place- yes. I wound up on this side of town and seen this market. It wasn't on Yelp so I quickly added it. I was hesitant to go in, as I wasn't sure what it had to offer. But my kids noted the pita bread sign in the window and we're set to get some, so I figured I'd go in and see they actually made fresh pita on site. Sure enough they did! 5/$1 like they place I frequent near my house. The gentleman was pulling the hot pita bread out as I stood there and bagged up my pieces. They also had fresh made meat, spinach and cheese pies for only $1 each. What a deal! I grabbed 2 spinach and 2 meat to enjoy later at home. I walked over to the produce section and it was nicely organized. The fruits and veggies looked good and fairly priced from what I quickly looked at. I was happy to see my tiny lemons were plentiful and even a better deal then what I usually pay. They were 8/$1, my local place sells them 7/$1. The store was very large and similar to other Mediterranean markets. It was clean and organized, from the walk through I did that day. The 4 fresh made pies were delicious- I'd definitely buy them again! I had a bag full of goodies for only $5.60 and I was a happy customer. I'd definitely return if I ever end up near it again.
