This place is fantastic. I’ve been a customer for years, and have tried everything from their delicious house-made vegan mango lassi, fresh fruits, and incense/herbs/spices. The selection is top notch, high quality, and you won’t find fairer prices in this area. Extremely nice staff as well. Grateful for this local mainstay!

ALERT ⚠️ they sell expired stuff. I have been visiting this store for over 2 years now. I am writing this review now because enough is enough. They sell expired food items and remove/hide expiration dates. This has happened with me couple of times. I bought roasted nuts ..so expensive.. and I had to throw all of them away. This was same case with many other food products. It is so expensive as well almost 4x the market price and it pains to throw food away.Be careful if you buying from this store

80% of the stuff is expired or stale. I’m a frequent customer. Every time I visit I come home with foul smelling items. They are extremely overpriced, thrice the amount from other stores. Also look out for expiry dates, because they erase it on a lot of stuff. Even the stuff they pack themselves looks good from the outside but when you open it, there’s a high chance it’s stale.

Great location for spices, loose tea, and general groceries in Lower Manhattan. They offer a discount if you use cash and have a great reward program (5% off on your first purchase if you make an account with them!) Will definitely be returning for bulk spices!

The guy behind the counter was pretty rude, was trying to see if he'd exchange something and he kind of just stopped responding, he could have handled it better. Used to be my go to but I think I'm going to skip this place now. Least he could do was talk nicely to an old customer even if he wasn't going to exchange

I found everything I needed and more. This is my new favorite spice store. It’s well-organized and everything is clearly labeled in the store’s packaging.
It's a pretty good herbal shop that has everything from A-Z. The herbs are in ziploc style bags, which is par for course.

Store super friendly :) nonjudgmental vibes. natural store. It's great prices. open late 11am - 11pm Other customers could be bossy but just ignore it. there are small steps about 4...be careful when you leave the store there's a crock. You might trip! I also want to mention, by the entrance, shopping baskets are set up I hit my knee and it was painful.... I hope the owner changes the location!

Great find!!! If you are looking for spices that are not typically carried in a supermarket, this is your place! They seem to have everything you may want.Definitely a worthwhile stop for the chef in you. Up your game. Spice it up! :)

Non flouride tooth paste and other rare items. A wide selection of beans, grains and dried goods. Wonderful spices of all kinds. And vegetable ghee.What a great place to create your own Kitchari recipes and to start making cooking a fun adventure that will change how you view food.
