This shop is the definition of pure greed. I would rather go to East bay than buy anything from here. I attached a picture of 1 item - the regular price is $3.99 but just a day before Diwali they increased it to $5.99.Also the taxes are humongous. I have bought groceries from all over East bay and SF and none of them charge taxes as much as they do. I also encourage people to check the bill as its not itemized (it just says food item) and there are high chances of an extra item or 2 if youre not vigilant.

We went there to buy some Indian groceries and spices. We asked the gentleman who was there he helped us. We asked him a couple of more questions and he was very helpful. We ended up buying more than we thought of. We went to the register and we were asked to wait although nobody was there. Anyway all good. So this Old lady at the register was talking to somebody who just showed up. So I become restless after 12 minutes and asked her if she can ring the things so we can pay. So this OLD LADY told us very rudely to pull everything out of the basket and keep on the counter, we did then she said very rudely to keep the basket back to where we picked, we did THEN SHE ASKED US IF WE NEED ANY BAGS, We said yes 1. All this time she was barking orders on us and having conversation with the same couple. Wow. There was 1 item which I buy on regular basis and I noticed the price is pretty high. So I asked her and again she opened her bad mouth and said, THIS IS OUR PRICE YOU BUY IT OR NOT TELL ME. I was pretty upset but did not say anything because of her age. Such a rude person on Register wow. We paid and left the store and am not coming back ever. The 3 friends I was with also felt the same insult and attitude. Anyway I will suggest people to avoid going to the store so they learn the lesson and at least be humble and respectful to the customers. Also if she is an employee she should not be at register at all. Minus 1 stars.

Best grocery store in town at reasonable prices. Helpful and respectful staff and owners. Must visit JAI HO INDIAN GROCERY for amazing indian sweets, spices, pulses, vegetables and organic products

Very very very expensive indian grocery store. Please do not go here, this is very expensive! It is next to extortion because San Francisco does not have another indian grocery store and they are establishing their monopoly by raising the prices to unbelievable extent. MORE THAN WHOLE FOODS LOL! Rather go to another grocery store outside the city.I have already lodged a complaint with Better Business Bureau to check for price gouging.

Great spot for Indian food, snacks. Lots of variety and the uncle there addresses everyone by Beta which means son/daughter in India and that is the sweetest thing! Great service :)

Items are really pricey. Quality is good. The staff can be unwelcoming sometimes.

OVERLY PRICED groceries. Avoid going if you have other Indian groceries stores nearby.

This is the towns only grocery store! They come on time, and the food is freshly cooked and shipped within an hour or two. Coming out of them gave me a tremendous sense of accomplishment. This store comes with a good endorsement.

This grocery store is so amazing. At a very inexpensive price, theyve got everything I like. The employees are all so accommodating and helpful. Quite a huge variety of meals and snacks. And they still have a large and secure parking area. Im very impressed with this grocery store. I gave them a ranking of five-stars. Highly advised!

One of the best places when it comes to grocery stores. The value for money and quality of the food is hard to beat. The store is not so big but almost complete basic needs. This place is very convenient for those who dont want a crowded grocery store. A good place for buying your everyday needs. Highly recommended!

For comfort and not an overly busy location in which I can do my grocery shopping in peace, I do my groceries here. They still have a large variety of options for items of high quality. The rates are really competitive and the queues are not that long. This position has everything you need. Highly advised!

A variety of items can be picked from imported and local products at this grocery store. It is where I buy my grocery on a daily basis, as it is near my home. It is a big business, very tidy, and not crowded either. This is definitely one of the best shops Ive been to for groceries. Many gratitude to you!

I live very close and so the location is very convenient. The owners are so sweet and helpful. The store is very well stocked for its size. The prices are great for all their items and I always find what I need here. It is just so easy to buy a lot when the owners make you comfortable and everything interesting is available. EXCELLENT MARKET!!!!!!

If you are looking for a complete grocery shop, I highly recommend this shop to you. All of the displays are well-placed and arranged. Also, the staffs here are very attentive to all of my concerns. I really love to do my groceries here because everything that I needed was all here. Thank you so much, guys! Keep up the beautiful work!

The staff, especially the lady who I believe is the owner, are wonderful and friendly

San Franciscos long standing indian grocery staple. Stocked with all the essentials you need for pan-indian cooking, although focussing on north Indian items.

Nice place in the city to get Indian groceries

Affordable prices for all items, groceries, meats, and fresh produce. And also, this place is very conveniently located and the parking area is very spacious. All of the staff as well are always happy and willing to assist you. I highly recommend this place to others.

Extremely nice owners!! The groceries are well organized and easy to find

I used to be a regular to this store. Did not feel comfortable with the covid 19 precautions they were taking. Decided to drive down to south bay and realized that I can get a much more wider selection (especially with organic produce ) at easily half the price. Good store but I dont think I will visit any time soon unless its for couple items.

Bought dosa batter from this store and it turned out to be stale! They need to do a better job at ensuring that their products are fresh and of sellable quality.

Very good selection of Indian food products. They have MTR mixes, dosa mavu, spices, all types of dal... Parking is easy just outside, there are a number of spaces. This is just next to the Safeway if you have more shopping to do.

Good place for Indian groceries. If you dont go early enough youre not going to get too many of fresh Indian veggies like tindora, okra, arabi etc.

Im sorry to say but the few times I went in there to shop the store owners made me feel unwelcome and they didnt offer me a bag for my items that I had bought and I had to ask for a bag, I will try to find me a different store to buy my items.

This grocery store is AMAZING! I go here for my produce every week as well as random items I need throughout the week since I am within walking distance. Their produce is always great quality with excellent prices.They have such a great variety. Whenever I need an obscure item for a recipe, they have it. So even though it seems small they do a good job of carrying almost anything you can think of.The employees are all great and helpful. Butchers are very knowledgeable. Cashiers are really friendly.

Nice store. Very well stocked and organized

All of the staff as well are always happy and willing to assist you. I highly recommend this place to others.

Good place to get spices. Theyre located near the Popeyes in the Safeway complex. They even had some specialty fresh herbs/leaves I was looking for. The owners could be friendlier. The guy, who I think might be their son, was the nicest. Another man who was restocking items was helpful when I couldnt find some stuff. I spent a lot buying bags and bags of Indian spices. The lady could have been more welcoming. I would have revisited this place by now, but I havent.

This is a great neighborhood store for all your indian cooking ingredients, right from rice, daals, different kinds of flour. The snacks and biscuits aisle hits you with nostalgia with the bhakarvadi and parle-G. There is every brand which you swear by for your perfect cup of tea. At the back of the store, you will find your frozen ready to eat parathas and some indian vegetables too. The owners are really friendly and all you need to do is ask if you are not familiar with shopping at an Indian store.

One place in the city for all your Indian groceries requirements. 🙏

The best Indian grocery store to go if living in downtown city. Will get most of the stuff and very friendly elderly couple who take care of everything.

A store which can supply the needs of any Indian, and any non-indian experimenting with Indian cuisine.Has a treasure trove of frozen foods, including desserts and vegetables, a wide variety of snacks. The people running the store are extremely nice and always willing to help you look for everything.

You get all the basic indian stuff needed. Best indian store in SF (there are only 2)

Helpful and sweet store owners. Great stock of all variety of Indian grocery both North and South Indian. They have the best samosas till noon on weekends. Best Indian grocery in the city.

It was our first time we went to the store, I really appreciate their customer service. The family does a wonderful job to run their store and take care of their customers needs. It is very convenient for the community to get the things they need . They have fresh produce with nice collection.

Only major issue is it is really pricey if you are consuming Indian items and groceries as a staple every day for each item is marked up by a minimum of 20% with as much as 50% to 75% markup on rice, wheat and lentils compared to more locations in East bay or south of San Francisco

Almost all items are over priced compared to other shops in the area. for example, a packet of Ghee cost here $10 which is only $6 at Madras groceries (same packet).

Good Services, Nice Talk

This little grocer has a lot of South Asian treats, drinks and food items. The frozen section has ready made items such as samosas and there are aisle shelves with a variety of jarred pickled fruits and vegetables. In the rear of the store is a small produce section with common items such as garlic, onions, tomatoes, as well as hard to find items such as eggplant pluots, bitter melon and fresh curry leaves. The store also has a small selection of sweet pastries.

The tastes of India awaits you at this grocery store and the clientele is mostly Indian families doing their daily shopping and everyone is friendly and welcoming to even a first time buyer like myself. There is a large selection of spices and sauces to enhance any meal with the foods and flavors of that country. From naan bread to samosas there is something for anyone that wants to experience the aromatically delicious cuisine of the second most populated country in this world.

Probably the best Indian store in San Francisco in terms of variety and prices. As anyone would expect, Jai Ho is still a tiny and expensive store if you compare it with Indian stores in the East Bay or South Bay.

In first place I don’t usually right reviews for grocery shops, but this one deserves a review I thought! I don’t care about stuff they keep but they really have to teach there boy who is around 10 year old manners, while I was standing there to pay the amount, he looked at my 15 month old daughter told the cashier(apparently his mom) and grand father my daughter looks disgusting, and they didn’t even care to apologize to me or correct his behavior I am not angry on him, but it shows there upbringing. Shame on there behavior.Parenting is about teaching respect, and manners. If you people want him to achieve something in life that would be the first step! Else he will sit in grocery shop abusing people!

Look in the produce fridge in the back! Good stock of organic pulses and spices

A decent grocery place with not a lot of collection compared to the South Bay.Some of the items are very expensive and at a bumped up price. Even though it’s the city, I don’t think those prices are justifiable for some of the products.The aisle space is very less and two people browsing products on a single aisle would be a stretch.If gives an option, I would buy the exact same products with a much comfortable shopping experience and a cheaper price from Sunnyvale / Santaclara.

Best places in the SFO downtown area to get the Indian groceries. It’s open from Tuesday to Sunday and closed on Monday and public holidays. We have Muni bus connectivity here which is best part for people traveling from far. You get all the Indian products likes spices, grains, vegetables, sweets, frozen products, pickles, tea powder, puja materials, etc

Always good range Indian foods, but this visit they were expectedly low on stuff but also did not have my favorite brand of Roti Paratha

Wide variety of Indian grocery. Fresh vegetables and batters. Very pleasant and friendly store owner!

If you are in San Francisco and having the urge to eat or cook Indian/Pakistani food, then Jai Ho Indian Grocery is the place to be in. They have a huge variety of Indian spices and all sorts of frozen packages to give away. The owner is very friendly. Great customer service. Major plus of the store is that the items are stacked very neatly and systematically. Will surely visit again and recommend it.

Great prices. Best Indian store in SF. Theres only a few. Best size compared to closer one. Accepts stamps

Great little grocer with wide selection of knick knacks, Indian snacks, pickled everything, and small produce section in the back. Hard to find items such as fresh curry leaves, bitter melon, and eggplant pluots are available here. Theres also a nice selection of frozen Indian dishes, delicacies, and ready cook items such as samosas.

This is a great little Indian grocery store in San Francisco that I like to go to. They have all the spices and food items that you may need to prepare an Indian meal. One of my complaints is that they do not carry multiple brands of a same product and they keep changing brands, so if you are used to one brand, there are chances that you wont find it next time you go there. It is a good thing and bad thing; kind of forces you to try new brands. I am particular about my brands because taste of Indian frozen food varies greatly from one brand to another since they all utilize spices differently.

Excellent store in the city with ample parking right outside. Love the uncle aunty running the store. Very helpful elderly couple. Highly recommended!!

Names of purchased items is not printed in the bill. We dont know how much we are paying for what. The weighing machine is not visible to the customer. We dont know how much is the weight of the item were purchasing. I dont recommend this store

Jai Ho Indian Grocery Store has a Staff friendly, store layout excellent.. Love it

Most of the Indian food items available. You will not be disappointed.

Sweets quality is very bad, not freshed, not tasty 😞

Nice selection of Indian groceries. Will love to come back and shop there. Hope next time gets some fresh vegetables.

Its okay and the only option in SF to get Indian supplies. There are few more Indian stores but this seems to be better.

Excellent selection of items - including fresh curry leaves And my favorite - the fresh Dosa, Idili & uttahpam batter.

Great collection. South and east bay have bigger stores. But this is the best in the city.

I like being close to Jai Ho grocery for when I need to pick up hot peppers, ingredients for chaat, or some spices. It is convenient that the store is right next to Safeway. It is clean and the couple that owns the store is always friendly. I usually prefer coming here than to the Indian bazaar on Polk St.

Luv getting my pre made masala sauce, neem oil, rose and irange blossom for dessert ingredients!..just dont like the old oily smell from popeyes chicken, but Jai Ho is FUN!!

Good stock of Indian Groceries, vegetables. Organic section will be added soon. Good people managing the store 👍 love them.

We get most of the day to day usage items here. Free and convenient parking available.

Love the couple that works there, they are really nice. They carry all main Indian produce, ingredients and prepared food. Prices are great even in SF

For Indians, this place is perfect. Not overpriced and you get all your Indian groceries and of course the shopkeepers are very welcoming and the whole vibe of the place takes you back to India.

A decent grocery place with not a lot of collection compared to the South Bay.

Small but good grocery store. You will find out mostly Indian grocery you actually need.

Get most of my Indian food supplies here. Theyre usually well stocked up.

Great selection, plus fresh, local made Dosa, uttahpam & idli batter

It’s an amazing store with a wide of indian grocery. Also I have recently been there and they have all kinds of festival necessities too. And they already have displayed Rangoli for Diwali. Great experience shopping and amazing helping staff and hospitality. I will definitely recommend everyone to shop from jai ho! Cheers :)

Stamples are heavily over priced but its the only indian store with a wide assortment and fresh indian vegetables

We came to Jai Ho a couple weeks ago looking for Horlicks. They were out of stock and the store owner apologized and promised us the next time we came hed make sure they were fully stocked. Well, we were passing by earlier today, decided to drop in, and guess what we found! 😊

You get almost everything you need to cook up any kind of Indian cuisine may it be South Indian dosas punjabi chicken masala or Bengali sweets. Its got meals from most regions covered.

Nice Indian store for grocery shopping. Price is also reasonable. You find almost everything which is required to cook Indian food .

Felt like being in a neighborhood store back home... Except that this had more stuff relevant for here, like variety of packed rotis and paranthas... And very helpful owners.

Bad vegetables! Ok for dry goods. The lady at the counter is very sweet and helpful though.

Good place to buy indian groceries in downtown sf. Small store but they have wide range of items.

Decent enough place for quick Indian groceries. Compared to the ones in South Bay, this is relatively small and had limited choices. Has fresh vegetables, spices, samosas, Roti, etc.Parking is ample, but beware of the surroundings.

Friendly environment, get Indian stuff spices etc. Conievnintly located from our place in Sanfarncisco

This place is great! Amazing selection and easy parking.

The best Indian grocery shop in San Francisco. Very friendly uncle & aunty. Very organized..!!!

High price everything

The store has all variety of Indian groceries. One of the best in SF

Costlier than suburb Indian grocery stores. All items are min 15-20% costly. But in city the best one.

Almost everything you need from vegetables to MDH masala to Precooked rotis and much more of our indian household can be found here

Well stocked store. A little difficult to locate for a newbie or tourist but indispensable for any Indian visiting SF, planning to cook at home. Even Indian snacks and frozen goodies are available. Got my favorite paneer! They even had stuff for the upcoming Indian festivals (karwa chauth)

They carry fresh vegetables like okra, cauliflower, sinquoa, opo squash.

Very good owners and friendly, you can get pretty much every thing from snack to straight food .they do carry hina too

Very friendly and they stock a lot of the Indian spices and have a variety of fresh produce.

Kinda expensive compared to South Bay. But clean and good

Good variety. No mirch masala roti

Best place in the city to get your share of all kinds of Indian food, treats, spices etc.

Extremely difficult to navigate in the store and when you ask I asked for help the uncle gave a very blunt reply to search properly. The paneer bought from here was really bad in quality and the prices are on the higher side.

Limited selection of all items, good place for Indian ethnic persons to buy country food items..

Little expensive.. check for the expiry dates.. I didn’t notice and bought some items those are hitting expiration date very soon.. free parking available.. call and confirm once for open hours..

Has improved tremendously both in terms of prices (not comparing it with stores in Sunnyvale) as well as with content since I first started shopping here.

Nice Indian grocery store. Everything available. Very pricey compared to the stores in Sunnyvale and Fremont.

They have most of the stuff. I wish they were in a better neighborhood, it’s a bit sketchy.
