Nina's Indian Groceries

Having found some Indian recipes we deciced to try making some. We found Nina's on citysearch and decided to give it a try. The wonderful aroma of spices greets you as you enter the store...yum! Tons of authentic Indian spices and yummy things to look at. We couldn't find all that we needed on first look, but when we asked the clerks they were helpful and friendly and directed us to what we needed and gave us advice on the best brands to buy. Definitely a trip worth repeating and a store worth putting on our list of places to shop!! Pros: Find what you're looking for at Nina's! Cons: Lots of similar products may be confusing... more

So I walk through the door, after being passed by ruffiants from the overpriced tattoo shop a few doors down and enter a world that surpasses my expectations. If you've been to many indian grocery stores, you may have the same expectations I do: small, crowded, smelley, loud, and poorly staffed. So you can imagine my surprise to see short lines at the counters, friendly smiles and staff wandering around asking people if they need any help. The atmosphere is light, the look is clean and organized and the staff is really friendly. They've recently expanded and have a dining area that looks really clean as well. But to be frank, that's not why I wanted to write this review. IF YOU ARE AMERICAN READ THIS: I have never found a store more well suited for Americans to find what they need to make indian food. The isles are well stocked and incredibly organized. they carry a great selection and are always willing to help you find what you need. Sometimes when you go, they will give you cupons to their "fast food" establishments, which I also recomend highly. Overall, if you are looking for authentic indian food, with easy prices, and a catering to the Indian Food newbie, Nina's is the place. Pros: Great Selection, Organized, Larger, Friendly, fast Cons: Location (near a roudy tatto shop), Parking more
