Nice people but can run out of products often. Maybe the should adjust their ordering to have more the most frequently and popular items and not get so many new labels which dont sell. I used to be in the retail food business and institutional sales. I know of what I speak
The products and prices are better than any of the conventional grocery stores around.The produce seems to be maintained constantly. It would be nice to see more local offerings and more specific/clear signs.Out of the five visits Ive made, Ive been greeted and offered help once (this was a grocer working a delivery in the cereal aisle 5/11/21 ~11:30am).That isnt really a great rate, but the one person was was kind so it made an impact.Overall, I think this is my favorite grocery in New York. If the service on the sales floor becomes consistent, Ill gladly change to five stars.
Great store. You can find things that are a little more niche here so I use it only for those occasions. They have all kinds of spices and stocks. Other than that it’s a little pricey.
My go-to grocery. They have most things I want and they’re typically cheaper than the other stores like Morton Williams. The produce is good and I find my niche staples here that I can’t find at other stores in the neighborhood. As always, remember to check food labels—just because it’s here doesn’t make it automatically healthy!
YOUNG WOMEN BEWARE. Was publicly harassed three times TO THE POINT OF TEARS while shopping here by the stock employees. Physically intimidated by one when I called him out. The manager saw me crying and pretended to take the issue very seriously and checked the cameras but I returned the other day to see the same employee staring me down. Clearly they do not put customer safety first, red flag as a woman in this neighborhood. Will be posting a picture of him soon so women are aware as management is not handling it.
Im a tourist and the prices were similar to ones in NOVA and MD. I have gone to 5 or 6 grocery stores so far around here and it was the only one where the man working there asked me if I needed help or assistance while I was looking at the herbs and supplements. Very nice products and welcoming store. Good vibe!
The best grocery store I know of in the neighborhood for organic and health foods. Only down side is that they have so few locations and since Ive moved further north Im not able to go as often as I would like. Please open up another location closer to the Second Ave line at 86th Street!
Good pruduce selection, good amount of vegan products, would be great to see even more vegan products in the future.
Lovely place, the staff are nice and there is a huge selection of everything you need from toilet products to local natto from Brooklyn. :-) There is a juice bar and soup bar, plus a nice selection of vitamins. Matthew is the one who helped us last time, he is very knowledgeable for supplements.
Best grocery store in the neighborhood. Thankful it exists.
I want to express my deepest gratitude to one of employee who works in supplement vitamins section Matthew. Several years from the day the store was opened at 72 Street he has provided great help and selected an amazing complex of vitamins showing unbelievable knowledge.Recently I was tested positive for COVID-19. Matthew gave me a complex of vitamins and some medication to drink. That at my 56 yearsold and having a high weight and prediabetic condition I didn’t even have a fever or cough and my recovery went very well.Your store is the best thing that happened in our neighborhood and the the best customer service.Thank you so much for saving my life.
I absolutely love this organic market. As a Vegan, i’m very happy they have a lot of Vegan products.The costumer service/cashiers/managers are always very friendly and helpful.
Great store. Dris and joanne who seem to run the store are always friendly and helpful. this store has been open throughout the pandemic and has been a lifesaver- thank you matter of health.
We are lucky to have such an amazing health food grocery like this in the neighborhood. The owner Billy is the most amazing and caring person who has been in the business for 4 decades and knows how to pick the best produce and food. The freshest of food and great organic selection. I love all the Gluten free products and homemade soup is great. I love the juice bar too.Everything you can need for groceries under one roof! A true gem of a store!
Great shop, really good quality organic produce. Supplements department has really helpful staff. Also a full juice bar and soup bar.
One of my favorite health food stores in NYC. The produce looks great, the chocolate is plentiful (love Lilys, as well as TCHO from the Bay Area), and there are some rare, quality brands scattered throughout.One of my current favorites is Rebel Creamery ice cream: low-carb, keto-friendly, and leagues beyond the mainstream protein ice creams in terms of taste and texture. Will continue coming here for my fix!
I’m in live with that place good soups good service .
Great selection of food, shakes, beauty products and supplements for the health conscious consumer. They offer at least 5 varieties of soup on a daily basis and grab- and-go salads. Fruit and vegetables are overpriced but you pay for what you get ”organic”!. I like to buy fresh turmeric and ginger root from this store on a regular. The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful about essential oils, vitamins, supplements etc. I always walk away with new knowledge. The place can get very crowded at lunch time.
As a Vegan, its a great store to shop. They offer fresh fruits and vegetables, vegan sources of protein, great prepared salads, vitamins and supplements, chocolate and health bars, vegan cosmetics, etc.
Great selection, rude staff. My small child asked mommy why were they looking at us like they are mad at us? I had noticed while we were in the store and was sad to hear he also noticed. Cashier didnt speak a word even after I greeted her and thanked her after checkout.
Good selection of vegetables and other items I needed. Can get a little crowded at times. Decent place to shop. Staff can be helpful if you ask them.
Best grocery store in New York City. Organic, gluten free, hard to find items. Best selection and prices than other stores. Free delivery in the area. Just send them an email and they will do all the shopping for you.
Well stocked, clean, delicious. Excellent and kind service, too!
They have fresh prepared salads & their soup bar is next level! I also come here for fresh protein shakes made behind the counter.
I love how small and quaint this place is. Everyone knows me in here and always welcomes me with smiles and “good to see you today”s. I love how everytime I am there, the staff of checking the produce for freshness. This is extremely important to me because who wants black cilantro? Or mushed tomatoes? I’m also vegan so veggies make up 90% of my diet.
They have such a good selection of organic and healthy products...Ive found items I never saw in a regular grocery store. Love shopping here.
This is their new large location. I love it! They have a huge selection of fantastic products. Some of my favorite healthy indulgences are:Josephs Pita (only 60 calories a pocket)No-Fat Hummus (18-25 calories/2 T versus 60 for others)Thai Curry HummusTheir soups look great, they have a huge selection of organic, gluten-free, dairy-free, whatever allergy you have food.But its not just for health nuts, theres also just a lot of really good and interesting products here for gift baskets, etc.
The cashier workers are extremely impolite. My husband and I are shopping here almost every day and we were ignored buy staff every time. They never gratitude you, and even when we do it first they dont reply!!They should learn a lot from Traders Joe, even from Target how customers should be treated!When you ask staff about some product the most of the time they tell you that they dont have it. Almost every time I found those items by myself, after already bought them at the other place.They really should show more effort to help customers or to referral to somebody who knows more about the products.Their products are good quality: organic, gluten-free, vegan.Too bad they dont show in a better way to the public!
This is my favorite health food store when I visit NYC, and thats saying a lot considering I go to 85% of them. Westerly is a close second, but A Matter of Health has bigger aisles and I dont have to constantly squeeze by people stocking. A shout out to Matt - thanks for being such a warm, nice guy!I particularly love the whole body section - wonderful sale prices that beat Whole Foods and every other store in NYC! I bought excellent shampoo on sale that I havent seen in Chicago - so great, my daughter used it every day as well! The only downside to this place is the bathroom - hold it if you can! Im not exaggerating - it smells like the the stinkiest, rank animal cage at the the zoo. Yuck!
All organic produce!! That makes is simple with no second guessing on where your apples came from. Really helpful staff,and a fast checkout makes this supermarket amazing! The holistic health section is filled with everything you would want in supplements,and if they dont carry it theres an awesome, knowledgeable trinidadian man who can get it for you. Great shopping experience!
Cashier asked me to wait line. I looked around there is no line and I walked to cashier. I bought 3 for $5 drink but she charged me full price. I asked her why she did that. Cashier walked back and she said I will fixed but she didnt fix correctly. I wanted talk to manager. When manager came, I asked him to refund items. He said, I will refund for you and you dont come back my store again. Also Manager curse to me his own language.
I like going here to do shopping. Its a good place to do grocery shopping if youre all into the organic food craze. The deli and the soup bar are also good.
The attendants at the juice bar lack customer service skills. For the prices they are asking for a cup of juice, they should treat customers better. They’ve been rude on multiple occasions. It’s a shame because I like the rest of the store. The manager should definitely look into training or rehiring this set of employees.
Amazing selection and kind staff
Love this store! Great products and great customer service
There was no room to move around in the store, but I didn’t even get a chance to see the entire place anyway. There was a woman behind a table selling a product that she stated was good for everyone and even for pregnant women, and then she inappropriately assumed I was expecting a baby, so I left the store ASAP. I would be uncomfortable going into that store again.
We love this store. Prices are great - food is fresh. Cant walk by without stopping in. So glad that the East Side is finally getting great organic food.
This is a really solid grocery store. They have good fruits and veggies in addition to the usual items you will find in a health food store. The actual size of the supermarket is large by Manhattan standards. I will be back, one of my new favorites on 1st Ave.
If you are looking for probiotics, Matter of Health is the place. They have a large refrigerated probiotic section with all the top brands. They also have an excellent fresh vegetable juice bar . In addition they have a full assortment of organic produce, and a high end grocery store as well. If you are in the mood for soup and sandwich, they have that located near the sushi bar. Prices are reasonable considering location on upper East side Manhattan. The check out clerks and other workers are all courteous and helpful. This is one of my favorite places to shop.
Probably the best place to find organic food around but only because there arent any other options in the neighborhood! It is organic but with no environmental consideration, they still use plastic bags for everything, the fresh produce travel from all over the world (kiwi from New Zealand!) . Delivery is free but it often comes with broken eggs, broken bottles and/or damaged fruits and vegetables. Customer service is often very rude. I will still go but only because I have no choice! Im stuck!
Love this place. I can always find what Im looking for. The staff is very friendly too
I like to go here to do shopping. Its a good place to do grocery shopping if youre all into the organic food craze.
Fine natural supermarket on the upper east side. Large with lots of choices. Fun place to shop.
Great place. All their produce is organically grown. Healthy food for healthy people!
Great selection of high quality food. Lots of good sales keep prices reasonable. Staff is friendly.
Really great monthly sales! Love that most of their products are organic, non-GMO etc. Makes my shopping much easier!
A good basic health food store. They have some great sales on dairy. Their organic produce is expensive.
Best organic fruits and vegetables in the neighborhood. All with great prices. I highly recommend it!!
Vitamin guy always helps me out, and is knowledgeable. Sometimes the check out line is pretty long, small annoyance when you are in a rush.
Great store with everything you need. Prices are ok. Knowledge staff. The chicken corn chowder soup is awsome.
Great selection of goods. Love the olive oil section with the Refill & Save !!
A cool supermarket. No Whole Foods sbut still pretty good.
Decent selection of foods and vitamins with sporadically good sales on certain items.Fresh organic produce, Kombucha, and low carb wraps at good prices.
They are raising the prices . Removing all the old prices . Now that pp struggle to go far . Especially older people.
Waaaay over priced. Food spoiled... They dont stand by their products.
Excellent produce and fantastic healthy food selection; top notch.
Fantastic selection of health products. Great smoothies!
2 years agodisgusting customer service! Store didn’t return items after 1 day. Product damaged
Not at all friendly or helpful staff,hard to find things in the store, send me to a aisle number and good luck finding it . Not happy there, insufficient space for the grocery section.
Good price, great choice! Best grocery store in UES
Best priced organic foods and produce in the area! Great variety!
Great selection of produce and health foods. Big
Great selection of organic foods, good prices and free delivery!
Always very crowded with long lines. Store is also super cramped and tough to navigate. If you are looking for some weird or unusual groceries though, this is the place to go.
Best place in the area for organic and health foods.
My favorite supermarket. Healthy options at amazing prices.
Great prices...great goods...fast checkout....and ...
Good selection of healthy groceries. Friendly staff.
Disgusting customer service! If you have a problem with an employee, the manager is never gonna be available! Horrible
Broad selection at very competitive prices
Has most everything.
Similar to Whole Foods, in stocks, but without all the icing and frills.
Customer service representative was rude and could barely speak English.
My favorite grocery store ever.
Great selection of healthy food

Good place
Successful authority and outstanding service
Everything is horganic
