What a wonderful neighborhood store this is. And now the butcher here gets some Prime graded beef that has been amazing! Nice selection of fruits and vegetables too. And I really like the croissants from their bakery. But what truly sets this place apart is the friendly helpful staff and management. I should probably give them 5 Stars, but I believe there is always room for improvement.

Great grocery store. Lots of variety you don't find at Walmart. But not super expensive like a Trader Joe's or something. Huge deli, lots of beer. Giant produce section.
