A	Aaron Lee on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ When I need something specific, I can always count on them to help me find it. Great staff and wonderful service.
K	Kyle Jones on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It’s a small Food Basics, so sometimes I don’t find what I’m looking for, but I do find that I’m always finding better prices here 9 times out of 10.
B	Bob Benkhe on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Not the most sparkly store in the chain but has some more international assortment of products, which I'd what I am truly there for.
a	ala al-kajela on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was visiting in this nice, quiet city and my cousin took me to this store. We noticed that there was some frozen lamb displayed at a good price. He took one piece but I picked one that did not have a price label. At the checkout, I notified the cashier that my piece does not have a price label and it has to be weighed and priced. Then, a guy from the meat section came and picked it up. Much to my surprise, the guy from the meat section, went to freezers grabbed a different piece and came back. I told the cashier that I asked for that piece to be weighed not to be changed because I could have picked one with price label from the beginning. I just wanted that big piece for a special dish. The guy from the meat section brought the original piece, but the price went high this time. I did not even know that this was on sale. It was very embarrassing as people started lining up. The store manager showed up at the checkout and said the meat section employee was new and did not know how to weigh!!! Then, he said this deal was from last week, but I could get it at the sale price!!! I thanked him for the generous offer and asked for a refund as I had already paid. Unfortunately, the cashier did not know how to process the refund transaction and a different cashier came to help. Another employee offered to go to the freezers and get another piece, but I refused. I had had enough at that time and I just wanted to leave the store and avoid more embarrassment and waste of time. This was a very painful shopping experience.
K	KK. A.A. on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Good, but I hope that there will be a special section for Arabic materials, but there is always a shortage of materials. I look for them and I did not find them, unfortunately. The refugee went to Kishner and left.
K	K M on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Sure wish it was bigger to compete more with Zehrs. Far better fruit & veggie collection in terms of freshness (compare lettuce between them and Zehrs), but no bakery really hurts.
R	Rob Kienapple on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Went to Food Basics today It was open but all coolers and freezers not working so couldn't buy anything perishable at all. No fresh vegetables, no meat , no eggs no milk, no frozen food, etc., etc. I bought some chips that were adverised on sale but they rang in for full price, so you can't trust you'll pay sale price on advertised products. LOL This store sucks in so many ways....
S	Shannon Beattie on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Friendly staff. Not the stores fault but too often people walk so close to you they hit you in the heel with their carts, it drives me crazy. The store is great but I find often they're out of sale items and you really have to look through the produce to get the good stuff.
