Extremely clean, open, and has great selections. A bit pricey, but the quality more than makes up for it in a majority of the goods they sell. I love going here and picking up pasta as a way to treat myself. The workers were incredibly helpful, informative, and friendly. Will definitely come again!

I felt I should write a review today because yesterday I had to leave my cart and come back. Brandon is an exceptional employee. He was so happy to hold my entire cart and refrigerate it while I ran home and came back. Every single employee (and Rock too!) at Kings in Verona are so nice, helpful and upbeat! Even when the music is playing, not only do you hear people singing but also dancing! You know customers enjoy this store when they are singing and doing a little groove dance while shopping. Its a pleasure shopping there. I hope Kings realize the amazingly wonderful awesome team they have running that store. I think they are just great!!! If I could give a hundred stars I would

We love and live off of King’s. They’re particularly good for international and premium cooking ingredients, including their proprietary Italian products - sort of a chef’s grocery. What let’s them down is that their fresh produce is a bit limited (ex: the only hot pepper they have is jalapeño), their meat section is just typical and has no active butcher to request cuts, and their fresh fish section is particularly sad and poorly sourced. They’re also very pricey, so I sometimes go to Whole Foods to get better produce at a lower cost, then go to King’s for all the essential cooking ingredients.

I like how clean this grocery store is. Great selection of prepared foods and bakery items. Produce is a little pricey but great quality. Ive used grocery pick up through instacart here several times and it has always been a great experience.

Great selection of all products, arranged in an attractive presentation. In particular, perishable products are superior quality and very fresh. Fish and meat are the highest quality and the deli has a fine array of delicious fine foods.

People who work here are extremely rude and manager seems to be a pushover. 2 lines for like 10-15 ppl . When I asked them why the wait and if there were no express lanes? The one employee responded to me with no express lanes... I said why? She says to me ... idk Why are you here? Why are you not in line(very rudely with an attitude) ... this is a weakening establishment by the day and I can clearly see why

Way too expensive. It’s always been but now it’s just out of control. $9+ for a simple bag or oranges. $15+ for other fruits. Hopefully they take affordability and access to food into account moving forward.

Small to medium size supermarket cratering to mostly senior citizens. Ample parking. About 20 registers. Prices are moderately priced. It does have a small community feel to but not a lot of diversity in the staff.

I came in for a salad and I was Disappointed in the salad bar because I have food allergies and the seafood salad was right next to the pasta salad which I wanted but was too afraid to eat because of cross contamination. I feel that the seafood should be kept separate From the other food just in case people have seafood allergies. So I ended up not getting a salad.

The Kings in Montclair NJ has the best fish department. I never smell fish and the quality of their fish is wonderful. The entire stores staff is helpful with a smile I have been a Kings shopper for approximately 50 years

Clean. Beautiful produce. Excellent Deli. High quality bakery. Quality if narrow fresh seafood selection. Well organized. Friendly long term staff. The feeling, when you walk into Kings is this is your neighborhood market. There is a reason they have been here for more than 30 years. The benchmark.

Kings Markets are known for their high level of quality in all their products. Their produce is very fresh, and youll find products there that you might not find in local stores. The best of the best.

I came to Kings to get a cheese plate to bring to a family party. I didnt see any and asked the clerk behind the cheese display if they had any. She offered to make me one! This clerk is emblematic of the service at Kings. If this store closes, it will be missed.

Review №47

The score was amazing! Organization and cleanliness could not be any better! But my cashier? Did not even smile once. Trust me, I was super present and smiled and was hoping to get one back from her. This is the only reason why I will get this location to Stars, because my last impression, regardless of all the amazingness of the store... was poor.

A beautiful, clean, small-ish grocery store offering an assortment of very fresh groceries. The front of house staff is refreshingly delightful. Definitely on the more expensive side, but great for picking up a few odds-n-ends.

Review №50

I visited this place to get some takeaway, the person serving the food didn’t wear any gloves though he was handling prepared food. Additionally when I pointed out that he had visible soap bubbles on my takeaway box he insisted he had clean hands using an expletive in presence of my 5 year old. The manager of the store was nowhere to be found to make a complaint nor could I find a complaint box. This place in my opinion is best avoided because the one thing I go to Kings for is quality and after this experience it will be difficult to justify any future visits.

Review №51

Definitely a really nice location. There is an upscale vibe to Kings. I cant give it a 5-star review because I believe it is more expensive than Whole Foods and that is excessive.

This is a Very Beautiful & Very Freshly Stocked Jewish Grocery Store w a Super Fresh Delicatessen, Ultra Fesh Seafood, Fresh Produce, Their own Very fresh Bakery that produces the most Delicious Breads & Baked goods, etc. They are about 20% Higher than most Bargain Grocery Stores in the area, BUT KINGS Freshness, and QUALITY of their Food ( Both Prepared & Not) Show where that Extra 20% is being spent. A MUST HAVE Grocery Store.

Store has plenty of parking. Clean, organized. Timely check out today. Cashiers are usually friendly. Today they were. I would give 5 stars but I find kings slightly overpriced on regular items.

Review №55

Beautiful place to shop, fresh food & all but this is the only place i see seniors goes to shop & touches the food whether cook or uncook with their bare hands, puts it in their mouths & touches it again and again. The other day one of the worker had to stop that man who latterly was eating of the salad trayAnother lady was touching the French bread with her bare hand while she did not buy it... Most seniors hands arent very clean (no offense to nobody) & theyre arent the only one shopping there..The management should put sign upDO NOT TOUCH FOOD WITH BARE HANDS CONSIDERING OTHER PEOPLE ARE BUYING AS WELL

I have one problem with whole foods and thats when they make something in there bakery that you like you never found it in there again.they change there items to much. Its not good especially when you really like something and you go back to get it again and it isnt there. I tend to go else were for bakery goods because of this.
