This Supermarket is amazing. Their Meats are the freshest meats I have bought in Toronto. It’s very clean and tender . The Grocery store is very clean and well maintained. They also have the best cheese selection which is very tasty, not too salty or mild. It is perfect. Amazing selection of many local foods for Mediterranean lovers. The staff are extremely helpful and always attentive. Thank you for providing an amazing experience. The prices are very reasonable especially for the quality of the fresh selection and wide variety of Meats and cheese. I have been living in the area for a long time and had just discovered this grocery store. Truly the best Halal fresh meats and local foods. This supermarket is only 2 minutes walking distance from Walmart and their prices are very fair and reasonable and competitive with Walmart. Skip your meat from Walmart because the quality at this shop is incomparable.

  • Goktug Yilmaz

I ordered online, instead of refunding me with missing items or making a easy process to pick and change, they’ve made me go back and forth a few times in different channels: message, whatsapp, phone, email. And we still couldn’t come to the right order at the end. Now I have 3 products I’m allergic to and they’re not responding about changing it for a week. I would recommend other Turkish stores in the area, they’re much better Edit: After writing this review, the owner reached out to me, was very helpful and refunded me for the 3 products I'm allergic to. I'm increasing my stars from 1.

  • Mike Mike

Bread section is very dirty all customers are touching and squeezing the breads and all the cheese pie , if you compare their prices with other Turkish markets they are considerably more expensive , I don’t know if she the owner but the short lady I think her name is muce or muke she is very unfriendly she does not even smile to clients not even a fake one, none of the employees are friendly they have lack of products . Their lahmacun is yeaks the can online fool none Turkish clientele, super spicy ( hot) all greasy it’s a heart clogger not a good market at all

  • ali cagri demir

I am from Turkey , came to this Turkish store last week and i was not expecting this kind of service from here . I just bought a tea and on the shelf it was saying it s 3 bucks (small tea may be it has only 10 tea bags ) . When i came to the cashier , they said it s 24 dollars and i told them on the shelf it says 3 dollars, cashier just made jokes about it and laughed .Just go to dollarama next to it .

  • W P

The service is kind, helpful and professional It's a spacious brand new store selling a variety of Turkish groceries and a small selection of Balkan foods. There is also a butcher's corner and a bakery at the back The lahmacun (Turkish pizza) taste very delicious! The portion is big and it's fairly priced at 3.99 per 1 pc If you are in the area, go check it out

  • Cagri

A Turkish market was necessary around this neighbourhood. I hope they grow bigger and offer more products we were accustomed to see back in Turkey. Meat prices are fair here. They also have a great bakery. Anyone who visits this store must try Lahmacun. It is the best in whole Toronto considering the price-taste ratio.

  • Kasim Dogan

Exceptional supermarket. I always order their lahmacun for my family and friends and have only received positive feedback. The handsome gentleman, Ismail, that works at the bakery section is an amazing human being with incredible talent. The staff is very hospitable and helpful. Highly recommend this market.

  • AC Habibian

Everything is very overpriced. Baya kazik hersey. Much better Turkish markets with much better variety and up to 30-40% CHEAPER! We were shocked AND they hardly had any of the KURUYEMIS in stock! Milleti soyuyolar vallayi! Ayni Mal 75%CHEAPER in TURKEY! Bukadar rezhalet olmaz. Kendi insanlarini soyuyolar!

  • Isa Duzgeren

Being Turkish, and born in Canada, every once in a while you need a reminder of the amazing food and products that come out of Turkey. Whenever I meet my real estate clients in the area, I always stop by to grab some stuff, and grab some food they make in the back, which never makes it home... shhhhh....

  • nihat peker

The same products are cheaper elsewhere. They say that they pay taxes on products coming from Turkey, and they also pay taxes when they come to Canada. However, as a taxpayer, I can say that a VAT refund is received in Turkey at the end of the year for exports. Also why is it available in other markets?

  • Katie Ashford

Their bread (simit) was stale and their bread has flour pockets in it because they don't mix it properly, their goods are past expiry date so we threw them out, and their meat smells weird. Will not be coming back, not worth the headache and the waste of my hard earned money.

  • Duran Çöçelli

Patron mustafa beye kasap reyonunda güzel esnaf kardeşlerim eyüp ve mustafaya özel teṣekkürler, Bizi bilmediğiğmiz marketlerden bilmediğimiz etleri almayı kurtardıkları için teşekkürler buraya gidip türkiyedeki kasap üsülü etlerinizi gönül rahatlığı ile alabilirsiniz.

Small turkish store with teas, biscuits, spices, bakery and fresh meat area. The simit did not taste like turkish simit. It tasted more like a bagel. It was chewy.
