In a nutshell an Indian kitchen. Best for Indians.Just that price tag wont be there and we have to ask the price which is kind of awkward.

Not a college student but blown away by the grocery/snack selection here—a wider selection of Indian grocery (frozen foods, spices and fresh produce including okra) like dosa batter and dhokla, than some actual Indian grocery stores, plus a ton of Korean/East Asian items like mochi, yakult, nori, novelty ice creams, a very wide variety of instant noodles plus a ton of frozen grocery like rice cakes, black sausage, seafood mixes. Plus a lot of European snacks and cookies I haven’t seen at usual grocery stores.Great to know this is in such an accessible area.

All Imma say is, check the expiration date before buying something from here. On two separate occasions Ive gotten food long past its expiration date from this store (and it seemed like they really didnt want me to return it/had a lil attitude).

As the name suggests, its the most convenient store to find Indian foods and also has other quick snacks.

Many Indian delicacies are available but at somewhat higher price. Some frozen food items are available at reasonable price.

They sell expired stuff. Just because it is close to university it’s expensive than just normal. The quality of vegetable is poor. Would not recommend.

The store is an easy access to Indian and Asian food near Northeastern. Eggs are very cheap! The employees can be rude at multiple occasions and they do not have price tags! Be on the lookout to see what they are charging you. Also Make sure to take your credit card back.

Extremely overpriced. 8$ parathas priced for 13$. Better save that 5$ and go to Patel’s.

You may find a bunch of Indian products here. Just that the prices are a little spiked up so probably you may wanna try out alternatives of the same. I use this location to buy quick eats but just in case you wanna buy bulk checking other places might save your pockets from burning.

Great place to find Indian groceries near Northeastern university. Good thing about the place is, it is open 24 hrs. You wont find some of the niche things that you find in Indian stores but it has everything you would generally need.

Review №18

I came here a month or so ago because I was craving Asian snacks but was annoyed because the cashiers mask was sitting on the counter and he didnt make an effort to put it on after I politely asked if he had one. I didnt think too much of it at the time since I was the only other person in the store.Im writing this review now because I went back again and this time there were two other customers not wearing their masks, in addition to the cashier who was mask-less again.Its unfortunate that this is the closest place to me that sells (overpriced) Asian snacks because I wont be comfortable coming here again.

Review №20

Only Indian store near the University Area and primarily has only student customers.Slightly experienced student staff do a decent job of running the store.I would recommend this store if you need quick snacks or short grocery runs. The pricing and quality is not on par with other grocery stores.Also double check product expiry and labels.There are always strangers around the store which may make some people uncomfortable.

Review №24

Literally the worst service ever. I arrived at the store at 11:50PM and the clerk was locking the door when it clearly stated on goolge that they just updated their hours to 12 AM the day before. It seemed like it was too much for them to service me seeing that as soon as I qas allowed into the store I was rudely told to hurry up. Word to the wise, take your business elsewhere.

This place is good, has everything you need but my one star rating is because of the quality of employees they hire.The cashier has the audacity to run screaming behind a customer because they did not read their new rule of keeping bags outside before coming in. The woman cashier started insulting this person and yelling like crazy.This store has illegally working students who have no manners whatsoever. To the owner- this incident happened on July 19, 2020 around 6 pm.

Third class customer service. I accidentally took the wrong cigar when asked to swap, guy refused and said couldnt do it due to Corona Time. The packet wasnt even open, I was literally back in 30 seconds to swap from the time of purchase. The dude was kept saying Corona Time while no mask on. The level of hypocrisy is over the roof.

This place is a hidden gem. I searched for Indian groceries and this came up in results but kept ignoring it because the name didnt give it away. Finally, looked up the reviews in need and viola! They have a huge selection of Indian groceries, frozen meals, Asian groceries and all basic items too. The staff was very friendly and helped me find things everything I visited.Prices very same or very comparable to other Indian grocery stores. They also get fresh samosas every Tuesday! Love this place as it so conveniently located.

Ive been stopping by for decades, mostly for lotto and random convenience items. But recently as I began exploring south asian cooking, I explored further and I was like wowed: this is a great source for many varieties of rice, dal, tons of spices and spice blends, pastes etc. I was very impressed, no need to order online when I can find what all I need of south asian basics right in the hood. Staff is unfailingly courteous and friendly too.

Review №66

I have been shopping here regularly for the past one year. And honestly this shops sells products that are not unfit to be sold.The sunflower oil I got here had a weird kerosene smell once I opened it and I had to trash the entire can.The Amul ghee I purchased here had the exact same issue of smelling like kerosene and things got even worse in the case. When I poured some ghee on to a heated pan and threw in some spices the ghee literally got on fire and the started to burn like petrol. Again had to trash the entire can and I burnt my fingers a little bit.Never stepping in here again.

Rightly named College Convenience, its proximity to NU attracts a ton of Asian students. Its generally always more expensive than other stores but it holds a monopoly w.r.t. imported groceries in the area and thus capitalizes on it.

So many products are expired please check dates before buying anything and also check prices because sometimes they charge you more when u r not aware and they close their cash counter around 9pm do no money back but they will ask you buy something because they dont have cash, you will find many useful things here but my experience was worst because I went there a month ago and I complained about one expired product and it was still there when I went back after 1 month😑😑

Less than friendly staff and the prices are not transparent. The customer facing display of the billing machine doesnt work and they have a no return policy. When I pointed out a pricing issue on their bill, the owner was rude and did not even apologize. He was like, yeah, the difference is 60 cents and threw the coins back at me! Wouldnt want to repeat going there again.
