Nice, new, big grocery store on the corner of Durango and Warm Springs. Their seafood selection is impressive. A lot like Whole Foods but cheaper. Prices seem to be on par or cheaper with Vons and Smith’s but they have a wider variety of quality produce. I’ve got one gripe about the deli. At Smith’s they’ll ask you how you want your meat cut and give you the first slice to taste. Here, I asked the lady to slice it thin. She sliced off the amount I requested and stuck it in the bag w/out showing me. Got back to my place and saw that it wasn’t sliced thin at all. Disappointing but not that big of a deal I guess. I was also looking for creme fraiche but they didn’t have any so I had to head down to Fresh & Easy to pick some up. Still, they seem to have stuff that other big box stores (like Vons or Albertson’s) don’t have.
I read in the local paper (“The Southwest View”) that this place is a real mom-n-pop operation. It’s run by Bill and Helen Glazier, a formerly-retired couple who owned a few other grocery stores in Philly. The article said they have plans to open a Glazier’s in Henderson in the summer of 2010.
