    Good shopping experience. They have halal section for meat. They cut and clean the meat if you want, but charges a little extra for that. Huge section for fruits and vegetables. Almost any grocery items you can think of you can buy from this mall. Store is clean and they are taking proper maintenance for Covid.

    It is a very typical Asian oriented grocery store. Hassle free in terms of shopping. This market has lots of affordable choices to make. The store is always clean and ordely. They have the largest selection of ethnic foods from around the world. The aisles are well organized, and prices are decent. Cashiers know the products and work quickly. Parking is huge and easily accessible.

    Very clean as always, easy to find items & great provisions available as always. Purchased the Cotton Candy grapes, however not as sweet as purchasing at other grocery. No line ups for cash and convenient that they are open on Civic holiday.

    August 14. 2023 ⭐️⭐️⭐️ During my trip to Pacific today, I was pleased to find pumpkins and at a reasonable price. This was especially beneficial for my sick dogs at home. However, I was disappointed that the salid dressings on the shelf had already expired, so I passed on it. I had been quite excited about a particular find during my previous visit: the Buldak soup. However, this time, I observed that it was notably more expensive compared to the prices at other local grocery stores. This price disparity extended to IndoMie Instant Noodles as well. The regular price is marked significantly higher. Interestingly, I came across Grace Peanut Punch on sale for just $1 at another store. The sales and regular prices on the items I was seeking didn't seem to be particularly favorable this week. August 7, 2023 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ During my trip to Pacific, I was pleased to find an extensive selection of produce. The store was notable for its cleanliness and organization. However, there was a downside when it came to prepackaged foods, particularly the Mangosteen. This relatively expensive fruit came in a mixed bag, with some pieces ripe and others inedible. We decided to buy cotton candy raisins (grapes), but unfortunately, they lacked the expected sweetness. On a positive note, the mango we purchased turned out to be delicious and satisfying. Additionally, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that my favorite Buldak soup was available at the store.

    The store did NOT honour their advertised sale on 2.5 litre OASIS orange juice which was promoted at $4.99. When I got to the cash the item rang up at$5.99 (the reg. price) to which I told the cashier in lane 3 that, that was not the price and I was not wrong. When she took no further action, I exited the store only to return and take a photo of the sale price with the product in the background. After returning to the same cashier who compared the photo with the product which was identical and still sitting on her counter, she she said that maybe it was a different one. When she began to ring up the next customer's order, I walked to the service counter and told the clerk that the cashier in lane 3 wouldn't honour the sale price for the orange juice having showed her the service desk clerk the photo that I had taken. When she didn't reply, I repeated myself only to once again not receive a reply at which time I said that I would be lodging a complaint at 9:00 Monday morning. As this still did not prompt any response I repeated that comment at which time the employee turned to speak with another employee who was also at the counter during the entire exchange. I exited the store and don't plan to return. Very shabby way to treat a customer, particularly given that they did not honour their sale price or make any attempt to investigate the matter for themselves and on my behalf.

    I have driven past this grocery for years and finally decided to go in . It is a very typical Asian oriented grocery store , They do serve Halal meat which is great for the community, The fish section is in a separate room which is temperature air controlled , A good thing. They have lots of bulk foods to stock up on. The line up for the fresh made to go food was long, a good sign. A good experience.

    The hot food counter and fresh buns are worth the trip alone. Amazing selection, portion and pricing. Also love the extended regular & holiday hours!

    I enjoy shopping here. The amount and types of produce is a lot. They also have a specified halal section which offers different kinds of chicken and beef. Along with that their sea food section is really good too. They also carry subcontinent spices and ingredients. The price is very reasonable. Also they made masks mandatory which puts you at ease in these times.

    Be careful of the halaal meat section. We bought about 4lbs of beef, asked for the fat to be removed and cut up. I’m now re-cutting each piece and removing fat and well I think I have about a solid 1lb now for a meal. 3lbs of fat I’ve removed I’m not sure what to say to that.

    "Exceptional variety, fresh meet, and courteous staff makes Halal meet a top choice. Prices are competitive, and the cleanliness is commendable. A one-stop-shop for quality groceries and meet.Great costumer serves provided by the staff.

    we come here often as it is close to home. we tend to only get Asian essentials as the prices can be a bit high. the store is clean and they have almost everything you need in one shop. the bakery and prepared foods are delicious so we often grab a quick lunch/dinner here. they also often have discounted sushi and cooked food at the end of the day.

    I was at the counter getting cooked food and I witness the food server yelling at a woman. She was getting frustrated because the woman couldn't understand what she saying and then proceeded to raise her voice aggressively at the customer. Rude and unprofessional. They employees have always lacked customer service skills but this was uncalled for. I will never go back there again. Shame on you for treating a customer like that. Also, this place is dirty.

    I never review places. However because of loblaws info coming out with their profits being 40% higher this year, as prices have gone up lettuce alone by $4 there. I decided to come here. I saved $20 on my trip if I bought the same produce anywhere. I’d recommend this place to anyone. It’s clean, good staff, quick service, and omg the prices. I’ll be saving around $100 monthly just by shopping here instead. Thank you guys

    hassle free in terms of shopping where chinese supermarkets are normally busy. social distancing was obvious as each customers quietly and distantly do their shopping. located in pickering, this asian market have lots of affordable choices to make. it has dedicated aisle of fave filipino products as well. quite clean and orderly.

  • 5/5 Pansara K. 4 months ago on Google • 81 reviews
    My go-to place for fresh meat and vegetables. The vegetables are always fresh and almost as cheap as Walmart. The meat is always fresh and way cheaper than anywhere else. Love that they have all kinds of meat such as Beef, pork, duck and goat. Ground lean pork is way cheaper. Eggs are cheap as well but milk and Bread is overpriced. Some other household items such as soap, shampoo, cookware, cleaning items are available as well. Didn't try the cooked food section yet. I'd never use the Halal section of this as my friend said the meat is old and overpriced because nobody buys this.

    They offer a variety of Asian condiments, food, cuisine, and other miscellaneous items. If you’re a Filipino and you’re craving for some specific items, they probably have it here. We’ve tried buying meats and fishes here that have somehow similar taste from the ones we can buy in the PH. They have mung beans, kimchi, lucky me noodles, Oishi chips, Jack&Jill, etc. They also have biscuits like skyflakes, otap, pillows, cream-o, berry knots, nagaraya, boy bawang. They also have coconut milk aka gata here. They sell Vicks and efficasent oil, i forgot if they also sell whiteflower. You have to bring your own ecobags, otherwise you’d have to buy one. Most of the time, they only have 2-3 counters open so line gets a bit long at times.

    I rarely shop here but when I am close by and need some stuff I go there. Purchased chicken meat three times over the period of a year and it was horrible experience each time. Purchased 1 whole chicken a year ago and found it rotten and stinky when reached home. Could not go back as I live 10 km away. Purchased a whole chicken again after few months just giving them benefit of doubt. Reached home and it was rotten again. Drove back and faced a very rude customer service. After some long arguments they issued a refund but considering the high gas price, I had already lost some money. Just recently a friend advised that they have changed the meat contractor and I should try them again. I just purchased chicken breast today, and it was same story again. Now I don't want to drive back to waste my time and money. I am just repenting that why did I go back to that place. Did someone else had the same complain with their halal meat section?

  • 3/5 MRHARDWORKER R. 1 year ago on Google
    They have some great produce and other items I can always find, but PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THE GROUND PORK. I came home to open the bag and I realize they serve me spoiled ground pork. I took advantage of the red tag deal I see they always promote. PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THE GROUND PORK. Their frozen meat never gave me any issues, but the ground pork.

  • 3/5 Hans G. Schulte-Albert, M. 1 year ago on Google
    They have quite a variety of food here at good prices. The only thing I would say is that you should not buy fruit that is cello-wrapped. Sometimes its rotten and then you wish you had not bought it. I also notice at the food bar they don't always serve you. I'm not sure if it's because I'm a white guy shopping in a Chinese market - or what...? Nobody likes to be ignored.

  • 5/5 Elizabeth L. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice shop. Prices were about average but they had a cool selection. I got some perfect tiny bowls. Just what I was looking for. Don't use the rest rooms here though. That was terrifying.

    It's great that Nigerian food can be found in this Supermarket, they have NIDSS Garri, Yamflour, Honey beans, Palmoil, Ogbono, Egusi, even suya spice at this store. It's a one stop grocery store and virtually everything you need is there.

    One star off for rude cashier. Checkout light was on but no cashier until she very slowly walked up to the till. So I asked, are you open? She looked intently at the light and then at me: ‘yes’, insinuating that I’m crazy. Then no response to a loud thank you on my part. But I digress. I had been to two other larger supermarkets looking for Thai shrimp paste but no luck. Found it here at a great price. So thank you - 4 stars 🌟

😠 I visited my local WalMart store to pick up a few items, and I was taken aback by the condition in which the store was kept.

😐 M and m is ok for what it is. But how great can all frozen food be? The chicken pot pie is amazing. As are the soups. But at 4$ each. Not great. All the frozen veggie dishes are bland. Shop the sales. But don't eat here too much
