I recently bought Halal multivitamins here that smell extremely foul. When I brought this up, the owners were completely dismissive, claiming they’ve sold them for years. They didn't care at all—they wouldn’t even offer to take the bottle back to check with the retailer who supplies them. I typically spend >$500 a month at this store, but between this experience, their behavior, and recent issues with spoiled frozen mangoes, I’m officially taking my business elsewhere. My advice to others: check your items thoroughly before leaving the store

Disappointing Experience I recently ordered chicken from here, and it was truly disappointing. The chicken had an unpleasant smell, and even after frying, there was still blood in the meat, indicating it wasn’t halal. Given the high prices, I expected much better quality and attention to detail. This experience really makes me question the food standards here. I won’t be coming back until there are improvements in quality control.
