This supermarket is by far the worst I have ever visited. Upon entering, there are security staff stationed at the front, and while a couple of them are friendly, the older employees seem to give you a look that suggests they despise your very presence. This sentiment extends to the bakery, sandwich, and juice bar section of the store. The gazes they give you are so peculiar, leaving you unsure whether they suspect you of theft or simply harbor a profound hatred for people.
Pricing: The prices here are exorbitant, making it the most expensive supermarket in the area. At one point, they attempted to sell eggs for $15 per container. Their items frequently spoil, be it fruits covered in mold, salads infested with mold, or dairy products just a few days away from expiration. They even sell expired goods! The irony is that they refuse refunds without a receipt, so make sure to keep your receipts until you've inspected your purchases. At one point, they even inflated the prices of their bags. They would excessively bag your items and charge 25 cents per tote bag. Ironically, one of the front "security" guards praised the cashier for this practice, while they were overcharging for the bags!
You'll consistently come across sales on items nearing their expiration dates, typically only a day or two away.
The positive aspects are that the supermarket is conveniently located for a significant portion of Bay Ridge, and the store itself is clean. However, the pricing, food quality, and the staff, particularly their "security" personnel, are utterly unacceptable. It genuinely fills me with dread whenever I have to step foot in this store. It's only worth considering for emergencies or convenience.
