This is a very good supermarket which has standards n cleaning. I bought a zuchinni bread and it was a great pastry. Prices are pretty high but the pastry is good...they have very exclusive merchandise from the most famous gourmet from France and the U.S!

There’s just something special about Citarella! We love going here. The staff is super friendly and helpful. While it is a bit pricier, the produce is so, so fresh. And the pre-made meals there are so delicious too! We love the kale and quinoa salad, chicken Milanese, chili soup, pea soup, and the list goes on :) Their olive bread pocket is also amazing. Wouldn’t buy staple things like /flour/sugar/cereals/etc here, but I’d recommend popping in for produce and other fresh ingredients.

I love this place! I come here to get fresh seafood, fresh cut steak and mochi ice cream I cannot find anywhere else. It’s more expensive than a regular grocery store but the quality is unbeatable.

The fish is super fresh, the rest is overpriced but hey.

We are happy to have you around: all the products are great but fish and meat are of supreme quality. We support establishments that are there when we need then the most.

I love to go there cause all products look perfect also the place is so clean. All workers are kind and polite. Include Walter the vegetable man.

Extraordinary fresh right off the dock onto your table. Superb quality and tasty as the sea can be for a sumptuous treat. Loved the red snapper, tuna, bronzino and salmon. You will return for more marine delights

Just loved this place, so much to do here n some good food to pick up. Good produce also available.

Artisan supermarket. Some unique foods can be found here.

Such an excellent selection of fruits, produce, meat cheese and seafood as well as baked goods. Super friendly staff. Its amazing! Not the best place if youre in a rush as there are usually people waiting on line to get in.

Overpriced foods and cashiers make errors while you’re paying. They charged me for one item twice.

Ive been coming here more during the pandemic and am pleased by the selection and quality of meats and seafood. The seafood is really fresh and the staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Easy to get staples like salmon. They also have peeky toe crab or rock shrimp sometimes which is hard to find (and super fresh).

Best produce, meat and fish in the city. And wonderful, friendly and helpful staff. High prices but definitely worth the quality.

Always a delight to shop here. I frequent their Fish Department, Randy, Dave and Fatima are the best. Produce and Meat Departments are also good. Great atmosphere.

Brief visit to see gorgeous displays of wonderful food. A great place if youre entertaining important guests who are foodies. The seafood section is the greatest. Bring money.

There is no match for the freshness and variety to be found at Citerella! I bought black cod, shad, soft shell crabs, wild striped bass filet and a piece of swordfish!

Staff is welcoming,everything is organized.

Vary nice place to shop if you’re on the east side of Manhattan

Good selection and very fresh for this smaller location. I have to grab a couple of wheels of #alsacianmunster whenever I go (only place in the city that I have found it). The baguettes are as good as any other place you can find as well.

I come all the way from Long Island City to shop there.. they do everything right.. the freshest meats, seafood and produce and friendly and helpful staff! FIVE STARS!!!!!

I was just browsing it has about everything that you can imagine that you want as far as groceries are concerned but theyre very pricey and for those that has food stamps they dont take it

Always great team and super goods

It wasabsolute pleasure shopping at the store service food quality phenomenal its a must go to

Truely the freshest quality around. I always enjoy the selection at this market.

Beautiful Store, Clean Brightly lite, Items are easy to find, a large selection of fresh food items, some pre packaged and others displayed in there fully inclosed Deli counter. Large selection of Cheeses and staff to guide your decision, also at there large meat section and the beautifully displayed fresh fish counter.

They have maintained consistently high quality food over the years. Excellent selection, excellent prepared food, huge selection of fish. Their space is a bit cramped. Can be crowded during peak hours. They are implementing social distancing and there can be line outside when there are too many customers inside.

Artisan cookies by the register are addicting and amazing

Love the quality of their products!Theyre fresh!

One of the most disrespectful managements you can meet .food is way over priced the meat fish are all basic and they act like it’s top of the line. I worked for this company and trust me they are selling typical merchandise at inflated prices. Shop at your own risk

Love their hamburger so yummy

Most over overpriced market in the neighborhood.

I go every Friday for their prime aged ribeye on the bone, NY prime strip steaks and their Ultimate prime burgers for my familys weekly BBQ. Pricey but worth it. Staff are professional and friendly.

This is our go to for seafood in the area. Always a fresh and rotating selection. The fishmongers know what may be best for your palate and needs. Their selection of oysters also changes and if theres a type youd really want they can easily bring them in.

9 dollars for a mini papaya?? Everything seems overpriced

The quality of the products they sell are first class. The seafood, the meats, the prepackaged sauces and soups, pasta, produce all beautifully presented and delicious. I take a long train ride in just to get meats there

To day they didnt have,children, cheese

Excellent service .Fresh meats and produce .

Citarella have some good soup I love the clam chowder, they have a variety of sandwiches, their Lamb is always fresh and tender Z nd their produce is always fresh.Good customer service.

One of the Best Market Around ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🤩🤩I Enjoy my Shopping there love their Service

My favorite cake shop. Picked a birthday cake for a young girl and they wrapped it beautifully. It was delicious for all to share. Most importantly, the staff at the bakery section is always welcoming and efficient. A great place to buy reasonably priced cakes for parties or gifting.

Beautiful store. In one door, meat, dairy, deli, snacks, dessert, pay at the register and out the other door. Great selection. Love this place.

Great but a bit pricey

Good stuff, quite pricey

Too slow on the line. Pretty good inside

Great service, Great food.

They have a little bit of everything you can imagine that delights the eyes and wets your appetite. Fresh vegetables, fruits, cheeses, seafood, great prepared foods and bakery

Artisan food from all around the world. One can buy a lot of exclusive products.

Overpriced but great deli. Loads of choices!

Nice market of fish and sea food

Good quality to choose from 👍🏾

The only place to buy fresh fish in ues!

Best grocery store on UES

Deserts are great! Especially mango mousse and pear tart.

Ahh Citerella, thank you for your company and excellent staff for your expertise. You have been my NYC go to seafood source for many years.

Fish quality is amazing. Staff is friendly and helpful. Store is crowded and a bit disorganized. Kinda like how fairway can be if that makes since. The charm and quality make up for it though

Wow so many wonderful things here. Prices are actually very good for the quality of the food sold here. Lots of Citarella brand items, premade food, excellent cheese, meat, and fish selection. Come here for produce too! If I lived near here this is the store Id shop at all the time. Staff was super friendly too! The cheese expert let me sample a delicious cheese we ended up buying. Oh and they have good prices on gourmet coffee, about $10/lb.

One of the best shopping experiences for food. Great prepared department, fresh baked ham, wonderful bread department and best of all great seafood department. Best pastas, olive oils and vinegars. Great cheese department too.all over good place to shop for high end stuff.

A very large and diversified fish section with knowledgeable fish-mongers. What I would like to see: fresh chicken options (not just a smattering of packaged products) and a LOT less mayo in their pre-made salads in the refrigerator case.

Great Market! Fresh meat, fresh fruits, vegetables, and a good selection of cakes. Yes. Cakes! Really good cakes. Some with no flour at all. I visited this spot to get some groceries, and ended up buying a cake for a friends birthday party. He loved it! 👍🏽

Fresh and good selection.

They are very careful about the actual situation. Prices are sometimes expensive, if you get very specific items. But meat, bread, dairy (not cheese though) can be found at regular prices. Now that Keyser is closed, you can buy bread here, its good.

We have a tiny fridge in our mini apartment and three visits a week to Citarella keeps us well fed and happy. They adjoin a Fairway market to round out our food shopping.

Great store. Some of the best fish I have ever had. Also a very nice meat departmentStaff friendly and helpful.

Excellent gourmet store with many specialty items . Good quality food.

It’s a must stop if you are looking for great vegetables and probably the best fishes in UES. Yes it’s expensive but quality and freshness doesn’t come cheap in the city. The staff is nice and helpful. Not an ordinary supermarket.

Better than whole foods but watch out for the upper east siders

Great quality of products 🙂

Great food. Wonderful workers. A pleasure.

Pricier than other grocery stores but great for fresh fish and veggies.

Excellent quality. Great fish. Fresh produce. Excellent bread. Very pleasant and helpful staff. Reasonable prices. If you cant find it there you arent hungry.

I go out of my way to come here for their meat and fish. Best meat and fish in NYC, (outside of a dedicated butcher and fish monger). If youre in a rush, most of their prepared foods are quite good (except their soups, which are always too salty). Staff is always helpful and jovial, even when theyre slammed with cranky customers around the holiday season.

I live this supermarket! You smell the freshness of everything: fruits and veggies, flowers, fish, even in the food bar where the meals are so well prepared!

Very expensive, but high quality. Great fish, great meat, fresh vegetables. If you plan on making a dish where the quality of your ingredients shines through, this is a trusted place to source it. Also, the roasted half duck is a good meal.

Great quality

The space is small so its setup like a maze. For the high end prices they offer a lot of imported goods but they dont offer cooked seafood entrees.

This is a specialty grocery store. You will not find all your needs here. Instead, you will find a curated fish and meat counter along with great produce and breads. They have nice but limited dry goods (pasta and canned foods).You can pick up pre-fabbed meals (heat and eat) along with snacks here.Dont forget your wallet. This place is not expensive but not cheap either. The prices are in line with the neighborhood.It is always crowded...

Neighborhood upscale market in a neighborhood filled with upscale markets. The produce section alone (just inside the door) justifies a visit. Also, thats the department with the most reasonable prices in the store. The meats and fish are beautiful, but command a premium for that beauty. For years Ive sourced my coffee beans from the small, virtually forgotten counter next to the bakery (another great department, with gorgeous, pricey cakes) at reasonable prices, and after work its not typically a big deal to walk in and grab the produce or coffee or slab of meat needed that evening. And the cheesemongers know their wares inside and out, for when one needs a quick hors doeuvre.Weekend mornings? Oh, I hope you have extra time to wait, for the checkout line, even fully staffed, cannot keep up with demand. Days before major holidays are even worse on the Upper East Side. This is simply a testament to the quality Citarella brings to the table.

Always enjoy going there

This is the place to go especially when yiu want to pick up some aged prime meats or fresh fish. their prepared foods are also very good.

Bought 2 pounds if within, the fish was not fresh at all with an horrible odor. Was in hurry, didnt check it there. Be careful, dont trust them and be sure to check your fish! Especially the eyes!

Fresh produce and delicious premade food like turkey chili and breaded chicken cutlets

UES. Food is good, but expensive. The cashiers are beyond rude. The checkout experience turns me off enough that I usually choose to go elsewhere.

This is a great Citarella as one would expect in the neighborhood. Immaculately stocked and serviced. Definitely avoid peak hours if you enjoy a calm shopping experience! Otherwise its a pleasure

It’s okay

Freshest seafood by far.

Good food and easy to pick up eat at work.

High quality but you pay for it. They sometimes run out of some of the in demand prepared food. Better to get there before 6pm to avoid the rush.

I use to work here back in 2002 I believe. I actually missed everyone. I only lasted about a month here due to health. But we all got along and worked together. I’m sure the ppl that worked there st the time is not there no more. But this was my first ever job. And it stood with me how everyone treated me.

Good food selection but prices are quite high despite the quality

Great fresh seafood/meats, prepared foods, and vegetables. I like their big sturdy plastic bags too for whatever thats worth. Avoid the ~430PM rush on weekdays when the checkout line takes up half the store.

Only the best of the best, this emporium isnt cluttered and crammed with inferior foods. The lines are long today, as always pre-holiday, but worth the time. Takeout and seafood spectacular.

Friendly staff, very good cheese selection. But whole store smelled of fish, evertwhere..

Great coffee beans!

An excellent grocery store with multiple locations in Manhattan and elsewhere. It has great food, from the basics to gourmet items.

Citarella has the most wonderful fish dept. Fresh and reasonable.

Always great choices at this high end venue. Prices fair and value great.

A great selection of high quality food, Card only. Well worth a visit.

A great place with all the gourmet foods you can think of. Wonderful to have them nearby and in the neighborhood.

The porterhouse steak is amazingAnd the fish were very fresh

One of the best markets on the upper east side. Fresh fish, meat, and breads.
