Next to Desi Dhaaba is the grocery and Indian/Pakistani supplies store with a surprising variety of items in such a limited space. Most anything you need to create a taste of home country is here. If you cant find it, ask and theyll get it for you. Spices, pickles, prepared food, variety of teas, snacks, utensils, dry goods...the list continues. Some people seem to think that their prices are a bit higher than the competition, however, I found the prices to be reasonable. Besides, there isnt much competition in the area anyway. There are only three or four other similar stores within five miles of it and they may be slightly less in a few items but not across the board. If you have Desi needs, this place will fit the bill.On Feb 7, 2018, Google was reporting this store as permanently closed. Not true. I called the store and they are very much open. I have reported the error to Google. Hope that will fix it. In the meantime feel free to go to the store. They are ready to welcome you.
Such a nice shopping experience! They have so much available here, fresh gelato, coffee, salad bar, hot food bar. So good!
This was our very first visit to Desineeds. It was an extremely good experience especially during the CoVid times. They are very well stocked and the staff is very helpful.I will surely give a visit to their Vernon hills location next time I am in need of Desi items.I highly recommend them :)
I liked the fact that they had a lot of spices, especially the kinds used in International Indian foods.They have an Indian restaurant also.Small store.
I love this store
Nice little shop that always fulfills my wifes Desi needs and my Gora wants
Good and very well maintained
You can get all the Indian groceries and vegetables herevat reasonable price. They have a small dhaba where you can get lunch and dinner.
Best Indian grocery store in Gurnee.
Good Indian store in surrounding
Very bad food.... Butter chicken was days old and they just warmed it up and served... Its a Bangladeshi cuisine and not Punjabi
Good place for all the Indian groceries. Customer friendly service. Has a small restaurant which caters good food. Keep it up 👍
Update: (August 2020) Spoke with owner & 2 employees - they weren’t wearing mask in store and also letting people to roam around and shop without mask. Poor response upon asking about the City’s guidelines. They said they doesn’t won’t to do that, because they are loosing customers. Money oriented people. Don’t buy. Unhygienic.June, 2020They are not following CDC and state of Illinois pandemic guideline. They are selling goods to people who are not wearing mask.
Store owner was refusing the policy of mask wearing. For his reference, it’s required by law to wear a mask otherwise they can get fine $2500. Unhygienic store & employee behavior. They don’t care about COViD19 spread to their customers.
Go to place for basic Indian food. Like any other place, they dont accept credit card for less than 10 bucks. Inconvenience when we are 100% digital!!?
I got Chapati and the lovely lady gave us free sweet bananas.I loved my experience shopping there.The guys were super helpful too !
Great little restaurant in here that has home cooked specials and a little Chaat house (snacks/appetizers). Ive never had anything but wonderful food and drinks from here. Other side is a grocery store in case you want to try your hand at recreating a dish youve had.
Good small store
We replaced order for some samosas and a chicken biryani. When my husband went to pickup they was about to pack it when he saw girl behind counter keep touching her hair and face and not wearing any gloves . He left without picking up our order. Please if you getting food there pay attention how they prepare and pack.
I cant give any star to this store. Worst Biryani . Never Expected. No Mask Nothing...Please dont sell the biryani by saying Hyderbadi biryani...
Right place for Desi Items including rare ones. But the rates are too high for some Desi Items. For Example: They billed 8.99$ for a 200g Amul Cheese Chiplets.
Its a great place, to get all the Groceries which are regularly used by Desis... Also a great place to dine-in for great tastes and varities of Indian cuisine..
Staff are friendly and helpful and shop is kept clean.
Store and take out
Has pretty much all the desi things you might need at a convenient location. Prices are a little higher than devon.They dont accept card for less than $10 shopping which sucks.
This place has a good collection of almost all Indian groceries at reasonable price.In the adjoining eatery, get a tasty quick-bite of Indian snacks or the days special for dinner. Food is prepared fresh daily and is yummy!! :)
Best food in gurnee, cannot simply resist the taste these people define, outstanding!
Oh I love this place and has great prices. I love it
I didnt like it. I love Indian food, but I will pass on this spot
Great food and service. This is one of my favorite restaurants.
Always a warm welcomeVery helpful staff. Variety. Food is delicious!
Really fresh food here!!! daily specials are great. service is great, too. wow, a hidden gem in a small strip mall. try it you wont be disappointed!!!
I love this grocery store. The people that work here are always friendly and accommodating. The produce are always very fresh and have never been disappointed in anything I have purchased over the years.

This place if perfect for casual dining, I loved their food taste, their hospitality and the menu. Being a Hyderabadi I was sceptical to order biryani from a Punjabi Dhaba but they surprised me. I actually liked the taste. Never miss their chicken 65.
This store will cover all your desi needs. The place is well stocked and if you cannot find anything just ask and they will gladly order it for you. The owners are sweet and a pleasure to meet every time.
A decent store with almost all of the desi requirements in stock. I would but appreciate more of vegetables in the shelf. The staff there is good, helpful and very much polite and accommodating. When you cannot find something, they come out with you and guide you to the shelf.This is the best so far as compared to the ones in Vernon hills
Staff is helpful. Its a bit pricy, but they always have what Im looking for when in a hurry.Clean.Easy access and visibility from the road with plenty of parking.
This place is good joint for food as well as grocery. Desi needs and desi dhaba..You can get grocery, sweets, frozen items like chapati, curd, paneer can be found here. Also, few household utensils you can get here, for purchase under 10$, you need to pay cash, all above 10 can be swiped on card.In dhaba, you can get tea, lunch specially indian dishes. Ambience is not what you may expect.
Always had great experience with delicious food and quick bites!!
Pretty good place with a variety of products
Great value for money. And I find their Biryani tasting right as Biryani.
Very nice staff, great indian comfort food.
Excellent food 🥘
Food was absolutely delicious and haven’t seen such generous staff. Thank you for being overwhelmed.
Drove all the way there to find out that there was no take out.
Nice and clean store! They have very delicious uncooked Indian tortilla and whole milk yogurt! Staff is always very friendly!
Great go-to place for Indian grocery. Good collection of pulses and spices. You also get desi food here. Prices are a bit expensive. Parking available. Check out deals on rice and flour.
This place is very unprofessionally managed. (The owner has his pre-teen/teenage kids managing the register.) Check expiry dates on all their products.As for the restaurant, their chaat isnt bad. The food is blah. No big flavors. I dont think they have experienced cooks. Would rather go to biriyani pointe or other places in the area.
All Indian grocery can be purchased here. Small but has all required items for Desi needs.
The food was awesome and people are nice 100/100. Thank you for the service.
Better than other competitors in around this area.
Great snacks and groceries, excellent service.
Fresh products and friendly staff. Quick to shoppe. Always good shopping experience.
Filled with amazing spices vegetables and more prixes are all reasonable

The guy behind the register should learn how to talk to customers. Looks like he needs some kind of training..
Everything is always fresh, I recommend this place to everyone!
Convenient store to anything I love it

Not a good place to go. Bad customer service.
Checkout time is way high and inconsistent prices.
