This grocery store is clean, amazing, and packed with great finds. they have all my Mediterranean and middle eastern favorites. They have a to go restaurant on site which honestly serves the best authentic Iranian food.

Nice variety of Persian delicacies, grocery, vegetables, cheeses and bread to mention a few.

Great small store with a wonderful variety of middle eastern foods. Looking forward to going back!

Good place to shop for middle-eastern groceries. The restaurant is good too with a decent menu of Iranian food. A bit pricey for my wallet

Very clean, well organized store carrying variety of ethnic food serving people from Mediterranean and Asian countries. People who work in the store are very courteous. We recently moved to Rockville. Extremely happy to have Yekta close by.

The best Middle Eastern/ European market in Maryland. So glad to discover the transition (one day) from being a restaurant to selling goods coming from the Mediterranean surrounding. I highly recommend to everyone and anyone

Yekta, you are just as unique as your Persian name but you certainly are not single or alone. I immediately felt alive when in this grocery store. It is exotic. This was my first time to this store and I was blown away by the diversity of the Middle Eastern products being offered. Now let’s talk about the food. The hummus was very disappointing. Kabob Bazaar in Arlington makes the best hummus. It is creamy and smooth and the garlic is not overpowering. You might want to consider training n their kitchen or Google them. The Ghemeh Bademjan was delicious. The Ghormeh Sabzi had confusing flavors, too many beans and not enough beef. The Mirza Ghasemi was wonderful. The rice was nice and fluffy. The cashier for the grocery store was pleasant. Heartbreak was the goldfish tank going out the door. The fishes looked very lonely. I guess you are all alone after all.

Yekta market is a delight; I enjoyed walking around the clean, well-organized and well-stocked space and exploring the vast variety of their international goodies. I also enjoyed ordering a delicious meal to go from their takeout window. I would visit regularly if I could, most definitely!

My koobideh was hard, chewy and dry. Called in to tell them and they said cook was gone. Made no effort to make it right. Would never return. Overpriced and tasted worse than McDonald’s

Variety of Iranian,Turkish and Arabic. every visit find bunches of new foodstuffs. ld love this supermarket

Definitely my favorite Middle Eastern marketn Huge, with lots of things that you cant find other places, and a ton of variety within categories, e.g. 8 brands of labneh, 6 brands of pomegranate molasses, a dozen kinds of honey. You get the idea. The ice cream is fabulous, and giant flatbreads. Check it out!

Great selection of Persian, Eastern European, Yunan Greek foods. Fresh vegetables and exotic fruits with seasonal surprises like fresh almonds make the experience special. There is great customer service with a small, hometown feel. People make the place and the people here have made the restaurant converted to a marketplace very welcoming and very well stocked. You can still enjoy the Persian delicacies from their carry out window. We always indulge in both. Safe practices are both observed and appreciated.

Very well organized.. neat and wide offerings..

Over priced compare to other Persian stores in the same area. And most items do not have a price listed so you don’t know what your going to pay at the register. Not a good feeling. Owners and employees seem to be too busy and too cocky to be nice.

Great renovation to the market with the same delicious food now for carryout.

Love the place, excellent middle eastern food!

Great place for middle eastern food. But couldn’t find any hummus there

Lots to chose from. Produce was great

This is pretty much the largest Persian supermarket in Montgomery county. They closed the sit-in restaurant and added the space to the supermarket. Carry out is still available.

They have a variety of Iranian and other middle eastern products. We went grocery shopping yesterday and the dry products seem to be ok so far.I posted the videos of the slimy Iranian kalbas I bought yesterday. The kalbas was horrible it is for sure expired.They should have thrown it out and not let it be in the fridges for us to grab.Truly disgusting.

Very expensive. Some of the products are old in the refrigerator. I got cheese and sausage and i had to throw them away because they were rotten

We popped in for a carry out and bought a few other goodies. Always fun to browse Yekta.

Love the choice of products. Produce is great, breads fresh and delicious. Lots of dairy and frozen. Im vegetarian so I cant comment on meat products.

Best middle eastern store

The new expansion is wonderful...clean n neat!

The Yakta restaurant does not exist any more the Yakta Market took over the place

I love the Yekta. Now it is larger and you can find everything you need from Iran.

Clean, renovated, little pricy

The best place to buy persimmons, fresh walnuts and real ceilon black tea in particular. Plus - Middle East sweet goodies.

Nice place to get persian groceries

Amazing Persian grocery store. Good produce (small, well curated selection), as well as spices, desserts, and canned middle eastern items. Good prices, great selection, friendly service. Lots of the items (including many many baked goods) have kosher certifications on the packaging. Truly full of things you cant find elsewhere.

This is one of the best mid eastern grocery in the DC area. Very friendly staff, well stocked, lots of fresh veg, olives, bread, cheeses. Good frozen section. Though it emphasizes Persian foods, Yekta also has excellent and (fresh products) from the Levant and North Africa. I like to go and browse. Always walk away with a smile (and bags of great groceries)

A bit expensive there

Iranian groceries. It has almost everything with Iranian brand.

This is one of the oldest Persian stores in the DMV area and the oldest in Montgomery County. Prices are a bit high, but you can find almost all things Persian (and Middle Eastern) here. I rarely have encountered something that wasnt high quality here.

Ive been shopping here for years. Its a convenient location for the items they sell a lot of. I buy olive oil, spices, yogurt/labne, cucumbers. But you pretty much cant trust anything that staff say about quality, and its not uncommon for expiration dates to be rubbed off. If it looks like its fresh, and you can see the production/expiration date, then you are probably in the clear. Im giving it 5-stars because its still my go-to place for lebanese/iranian type foodstuffs.

Great store well organized and nice products. I like their food also.

Love the place!

That was good for me

The restaurant has good ambiance for a nice peaceful meal with friendly staff. The market also has good selections of food and Persian/Middle Easter items.

Wonderful array of Persian, Middle Eastern and Mediterranean foodstuffs.

Nice market for Persian/ Iranian foods!

Verry clean place and good customer services.

Very clean and well organized

One of the best Persian groceries on the east coast. Fresh bread, a plethora of pastries, good produce.

Nice place that brings you back memories of the food you used to eat growing up in either Europe or the Middle East. Great pita bread, sweets and cheeses. Fun place for discovering new food you would not but at your regular supermarket.

Everytime Im in dc this is the spot to go for kebabs. Yummy I love it. The prices are reasonable and the service is fairly quick. The decorations really brings the place together. Paired with a homey feel and good food. You cannot go wrong. Please give it a try. This is not a paid ad. Shalom

If you like Middle Eastern food, shop at Yekta. I got Turkish coffee and pickles on this trip, but the bread is great and the cookies look very good. The market is next to the restaurant.

Have a lot of Lebanese products (bread, olive oil, yogurt, labne, biscuits and so on) also have seasonal fruits and veg that cant be found anywhere else like green almonds and sour green plums.

They always have what I need

I buy wonderful bread at Yekta. They have a wide variety of Persian food. I think something for everyone.Dont know what the 2 star review was about. The service is not overly friendly at least to non-Iranians.

Love all the Persian items they sell,

They have saffron sugar cubes!

Fresh produce and excelent source of south european and oriental food

Excellent food really well made

Mediterranean food to be had here.Prices are reasonable.

You must try their halva. The white one not the black. Amazing!!!They are very nice. There was a problem with the charging and by accident they charged me twice. After a day I came again and they checked and return the money immediately.

Hidden gem. Absolutely amazing store.

Love thier ghorme sabzi

I am from California, so I feel it needs some upgrades. For DC area, is a ok one!

Nice place, there are some goods we cant find in other stores near to Twinbrook. Small, clean with good choice.

They have various international foods. Bulgarian cheese, Turkish coffee, Greek products, Iranian and much more...

Fantastic

Nice little store. Source of produce close to home. Persian and South-European food

Wonderful Persian grocer with everything you need for yummy Persian food. The restaurant is quite good too.

Great groceries. Very unfriendly Iranian women behind the counter. They have NEVER reached out to speak Farsi and say one word to my elderly Iranian mother, and they dare not speak with me at all because I look so American. Kind of a shame.

Best Persian grocery store in town.

I had a wonderful customer service in here, and the food was so amazing only a plata was more than enough for 2 people!

Perfect persian market

A good one-stop shop for Middle Eastern food. They also carry some fresh produce. The aisles are a bit narrow but stocked very well. Great variety. Some items are a touch more expensive than other places. If youre looking for similar stores in the area, check out two other much smaller stores nearby and across the street from each other: “Asadurs Market” on Randolph Rd and “MD International Mart” on Nebel Street.

Very clean Grocery shopping

Our favorite place for many years. Always delicious and the best service.

The super market is my must stop by every other weekend. They bake fresh flat bread, they have the best Saffron of you like using it to make rice, very fresh fruit and vegetables -real organic- and they have occasionally some fruit from middle east in some seasons. Nice and yummy Persian and middle eastern sweets, dessert and pastry. Prices is higher than other Persian stores, but much better quality and fresher at YektaThere is a Yekt restaurant right nextdoor and they have good food and wine, Parisian food and their special house mint yogurt drink of you like it.

Delicious looking and tasting baked goods

My go to place for Middle Eastern food, especially fresh fruit and vegetables, tahini, feta cheese and labaneh. Also carries a variety of dry and packaged foods, spices, cakes, etc.

Great selection of middle eastern stuff

Variety of cookies, fresh vegetables and breads, 4 star because of relatively higher prices

Persian and mediterranean greocery store. Very clean and organized. Employees are very nice and helpful.

Perfect experience. Professional staff with a great menu
