“ My go-to shop for south-asian spices, vegetables and other ingredients that are tough to find at the average grocery store. Love to stop in here for little snacks and candies as well. The gentleman who runs the shop is so kind and it's always a joy making conversation with him while checking out. ”
“ Buying spices from here for a while now. It's the easiest place for me to pick up since I can just park on the street and easily walk in. Amar has a such an amazing variety of spices and dried goods that I'm sure I could find all I need after a long commute home. They also have fresh vegetables and a ton of frozen items. Their selection of frozen samosas is immense that I've found myself trying almost all of them. The shop can be a bit overwhelming because it's super full and there are many isles you can't walk through but I didn't have a problem with it. Although there is a language barrier, the cashier was very friendly. I've never been over charged on any of my items thus far and appreciate when I need to reach for something too far back on the top shelf, the cashier is always willing to help (coconut milk is always at the back top shelf). ”
“ They have the freshest produce, friendliest people, and everything you need for Indian cuisine. Lots of extras. I love shopping here!!! ”
“ Dalgeet and his family make Amar Groceries a warm and friendly community center, featuring an amazing array of household goods, foods, treats, and fresh daily produce! ”
“ I come here for the papadums! I used to get ripped off by Indian restaurants serving 4-5 pieces of papadums for $2-3. I always thought there was a crazy complicated process to make papadum--which could justify the cost but it's SOO easy. The profits these Indian restaurants make from serving papadums is insane. So I walk into the grocery store and I ask where can I find lentil flour. The store owner asks "what do you need it for?" I said I want to make papadum. He's like why do you want to make it we sell papadum. And I was amazed. So I take it home and find out all I need to do to cook it is pop it in the microwave for 45-60 seconds and I'm done! Again I'm amazed. No more overpaying for papadum! Also a good place to pick up chai tea! ”
“ We come here at least twice a month and are very happy with what we buy. If you have ever wanted to try fresh Leechee or Indian spices for cooking, this is your one stop shop. Everything is always fresh and the owner Diljheet is very welcoming. High recommend ”
“ Amar Grocery has the best selection of Pakistani/Punjabi/Indian groceries. I found the masala flavored Lay's chips that I used to eat in Pakistan and it really hit the spot! Fruits, vegetables, Desi snacks, biscuits/cookies, drinks, spices, clothing, etc. This store really has it all, including a very friendly and helpful staff! The owners of Amar Grocery are also starting a restaurant next door that will open in a few months. They really hyped it up and mentioned that they will be providing fresh sugar cane juice, FOUR different flavors of lassi, and chefs flown in from India. I will definitely be checking it out!!! ”
