Great prices the phone shop in the door is great the place is great it does have some draw backs such as i wouldnt bring a small child in the meat section unless theyre use to things like goat jaw and such or fish still with the head
Store is older so not fancy but I found it to be very clean and it was stocked unbelievably with foods I haven’t seen in years. Prices were wonderful. When I get off work planning to go back and buy some of their meats.
Not a clean store. The meat is often filled with bloody, watery juices and the boxed items are often past the fresh-by dates. The only plus is some of the produce is cheaper than other markets, but that does not necessarily mean better. Id rather spend more money buying better products at Harris Teeter, Trader Joes, Whole Foods, or Lowes.
I always go here for the perfect Mexican produce, especially cilantro.
It is a wonderful store. You can purchase fruits and spices. I buy beef and oxtail for my 🍲. They need to open a Compare Foods Store on Reynolda Road.
This grocery store is located @ the backside of the Parkway Plaza Shopping Center w/a large flat parking lot. They have a large variety of items available for sale.... Domestic as well as international. They sell several brands that I recognized from other local stores like Food Lion but they also sell a lot of brands that I wasnt familiar with. They have lots of produce & meat items that I had 2 Google just 2 find out what it was that I was looking @. Every employee spoke Spanish. I had a hard time understanding my cashier while checking out bc her accent was so thick. The grocery store was packed full of shoppers when I went during the middle of a weekday. They also have an area where they sell jewelry set up right inside the entrance. I dont really have any complaints 2 express but it just isnt my kinda grocery store so I doubt Ill return.
Larger supermarket with reasonable prices. Food was very delicious at the hot foods counter.
This is a good place to get the things you need!! Unfortunately the security guards make it uncomfortable for you to shop!! Its sad!!
I give this location 5 stars for a few reasons: it is very well stocked, large variety of items from several cultures and countries, plenty of staff, butcher, bakery, and a few other things. I recommend this compare foods location to anyone in the triad area in search of ethnic or international food items.
Store needs to be cleaned. Bad smell from dirty coolers I dont see how they stay operating that way
Need to be cleaned. A lot of dust. The baskets are very dirty. Everything is dirty. The associates are very nice and helpful!
Love this food store because has everything you need to make a healthy meal ☺️☺️
Just bought a small container of Talenti Gelato Coconut Almond Chocolate June 8-2021. Tasted wrong! Use by date Feb 02 21! Buyer beware!
Great place to get Latin food and some items and vegetables from Puerto Rico
The store is cleaner and more organized than the last time I was there. We ordered tamales and they had whole pieces of chicken, bones and all!!! Same with the pork tamales, big bones and little meat!!! Awful!!!! Will never eat anything from the kitchen there again. Also their health department grade was 80!!!!
This store is so dirty. Good prices on some produce but please clean it before storing it.
Great place to shop. They are very affordable on most things. Very friendly staff. I highly recommend to shop there.
You find all international and domestic food. Good managers and good staff. Good prices.😇😊😁😏❤👍👀🙋♀️
Nancy Amaya was our cashier and she was very rude. She threw the receipt at us and didnt greet us at all. Also, the stockers dont move the carts to let us pass through. They look at you and dont bother moving for you. In the tea section, there arent any prices.
Good place to find Latin food
Meat...all kinds of meat. And fruit/veggies - you might need to Google some of these! Far out choices!
They had almost everything I needed to cook. Their hot foods sold in the back was delicious..
This store has many items you cannot find in most other grocery stores.
I purchased my food, went to my truck to unload, reach in the bag to grab my drink and realize its not there. I go back inside and nobody has a clue who I am or what Im talking about.
I love their bakery and produce departments.
GREAT International foods!! GREAT prices on fresh meat!
Its a great place for Latinos to go buy our own products there, straight from your country, but sometimes the prices are way too expensive!..
Customer service is always good but expect a crowd, no matter what time of day. But I can say day is better than evening.
I buy food for our ferrets here. They have a good selection of offal and other items commonly used for raw fed ferrets (and other animals). Store is clean. Employees are friendly and helpful. I highly recommend checking out this store if you have raw fed animals.
I love their food 😋 and pan dulceAnd the churro truck outside king churroOmg I dont what they put in the churros but they are bomb af even if its plain and they have some really good champurado
Its sickening! Their Sanitation Grade is 78 in the meat dept. If I could have given them no stars I would have. How can they still be open with such a low grade.
Great place to get food you cant typically find elsewhere. But the store is quite nasty and has a horrible smell to it, can almost make you think twice before a purchase.
Great Food.An...Service...See U Tomorrow
Great prices. Huge selection of items. It always smells really good in there.
Friendly service. Plenty of varieties to choose from at a low price.
They have everything I need! Great prices and everything is fresh. Everyone I very friendly also .
Nice clean good verity of fresh vegetables. Well staffed with friendly, helpful group
Great sales but the store was Junkiee as usual
Very clean and quite the variety of dinner options...
This market offers a variety of foods for people from different cultures, a friendly staff, and a convenient location.
Management is very rude.. would give 0 if possible.
So I recently left the store and my experience went to ok to just terrible. Before leaving the store, I went to use the restroom. One of the employees did not wash their hands when the left the bathroom. I reported it and when confronting the employee they seem nonchalant. Justifying of the reason why they didn’t wash their hands. They happen to handle the meat station, and was one of the ones that packaged that I recently purchased. The manager didn’t do anything about the situation they also try to justify the situation. Never again will I be coming here.
Lots of choices you wont find elsewhere.
I love this store im from the north and some items you have are just the same as we do up north
This place need to be electrical inspected by the city of winston salem department if you stand on the fridges where the lettuces and other herb are with the water leek they got you could be easy electrocuted.....
Has a smell and its not really clean
They have a lot of exotic fruits, herbs and products that only have see them in my Country in Central America. I love go shopping there.
They meat stinks before you cook them and after you cook them like they are spoiled, and most of the stuff is expired or about to get expired. If is for me ill give them no star
Had it mostly covered for Spanish, Latino, South American, Carribean and African Source of Foods!
Too expensive groceries.. great prices for meat
Compare Foods has EVERYTHING! If you can eat it and you need it, they have it!
Good price and friendly. Yes is open for everyone. Good vegetable and fresh
Dont really shop there they prices are like Harris teeter👎
I love this store for groceries and fresh produce. The prices are much lower than other stores in the area. Great for Hispanic foods as well. Also you get yummy churros in the parking lot here.
There is NOT a thing I do not like about Compare Foods. If you cant find what you are looking at other food stores, there is a 95% COMPARE will have it.
Fresh octopus. Cant find it anywhere else!
I love it great prices
Good selection of meats! Pleasant atmosphere. Well organized.
The store has a good selection of everything. My problem is with the staff. They act like they do not care if you shop there or not. If you ask a question they either feign like they do not understand or just dismiss you. The kitchen staff is usually rude and condescending. I have dealt with ? Richard and he was friendly and helpful.
Horrible management treats people rude and sells overpriced and expired can food
Very confusing store. Over crowded with items.
Awesome international grocery store with a Hispanic theme.
Could be cleaner, specially the parking lot. Good food variety.
I like this Mexican Supermarket store, when I was staying at Salem apt. That the only place I got my groceries, so much fresh fruit, vegetables and some thing you couldnt get Walmart. Im from the Caribbean and they had just what I wanted. Plus the prices were good. Will be looking for Compare Supermarkets to shop.
Great collection of Hispanic food. Lots of fresh vegetable. Butchery department that will cut the meat the way you want it. Fresh tortillas. A cafeteria style restaurant and fresh baked bread and desserts to choose from. Prices are very reasonable. They also provide notary services.
I just left the store. Only one cash register open, and that cash register didnt take credit cards. Before getting on line to pay they told me to go to the next cash register #2 ...and the employee told me they were closed...so they told me to move to cash register #3.. the same story. They have to get this operation organized. On top on that the store is not very clean and also the outside of the store not very clean either. Stores employees and the store sales is paid by the customer. An unhappy customer wont go back to that store. GUESS WHAT..I WONT BE GOING BACK EVER.!
Love Compare. Food. Be. Glad. When. They 0pen. The. Open. East. Winston. Be. Happy
Best place in town to buy meat fish and produce. Clean store with friendly staff and huge selection of international foods, medicines, medicinal herbs, and peppers. Another big plus is they usually have more cashiers available than most places do nowadays and there is no self checkout AKA you are the cashier now.
Had to return chicken bought that same day. Opened the package and it smelled terrible, then lifted a piece and there was GREEN chicken thigh underneath! The meat section is disgusting. Pork shoulder was on sale but did not buy because every single one was bloody and dripping all over. Obviously not packaged correctly. The whole beef section was brown already. We will NEVER buy meat from there ever again. And the manager just laughs when you bring it back like oh well. They obviously do not care. I do like the produce and the variety of products..the produce is usually a good deal but aisle products are overpriced. The cashiers are nice but the manager is a joke. Whoever is doing the inspection for the meat is not doing their job or being paid off.
I LOVE Compare Foods!! I shop there often I find everything I need without any problems. Im always in and out, check out is never congested. I LOVE COMPARE FOODS!
The meats too good to be low prices.the meats taste funny...I wonder if eating a dog or cat wow...no more
Good store! They have all the meats and seafood there! And the prices arent that bad either! I love going there for my Seafood 😍😋
The only time that I shop at Compare is when there are deals. Otherwise the place is way more expensive than any other store. The meats are always greatly priced...so shop here when there are sales and if you dont mind the smell.
Get my African groceries from here. But do not buy their fish! Make the extra drive to Super G in Greensboro for a larger variety and fresh fish!
This a good store it has all the food products you know and love form the West indies.
Every ethnic food one may desire!! Hot dishes on site also. A store that all walks of life can benefit from
Food that is cooked there is really good
A lot of Latin America products can be finding here. It6not very well organized and a little dirty in some parts, but it is ok. Parking looks like always crowded. Staff very cordial and helpful. Prices are good.
Its a Mexican based grocery store. Lists of great product you wont fine at a regular grocery. Also s fun selection of imported items. Great prices.
Good selection of spanish products, although some of their products from puerto rico, when I brought it home is stale and old tasting.
Fantastic selection and the prices are unbeatable. Thanks Compare. We will see you soon.
Best produce in town, and more variety in the cuts of meat they sell! Great grocery!
Need to be more clean and more organized
This supermarket has a very wide variety of produce and more herbs and fruits you wont find at Publix or Food lion.
Great customer service
Have great deal on meat, and some produce, but store is always cold.
Great place to shop
If youre looking for Hispanic food this is the place to go....
If you can speak Spanish than this store is for you. Overall, its a semi-clean store, it is not that good at being laid out as far as isle space or the amounts of items that the employees or management tells them to put out. The staff isnt very helpful and can barely speak English or at least pretend not to if you ask questions. Could have been just the ones Ive spoken to at that time.The bathrooms are very dirty inside, the door barely locks, the sink is never cleaned well. They do have a good variety of product as one can imagine, some products are not seen in regular stores. They have a jewelry section as soon as you walk in that shouldnt be there but whatever as well as a cell phone cover and other products when you leave taking up space.Depending on what you buy, you can save or spend some money, their meat department is cheaper but also questionable, looks like the meat market in Winston Salem. What I mean is the countertop and display is dirty and not much looks like it is up to standards as well as their bakery. I wont buy those products there at all.
Good people run this store. Very good place and Im always remembered when I come in.
Great selection of fresh vegetables and fully stocked meat selections
Great shopping for last moments for the holidays. The collards are dirty cheap! .. [and tasteful when finished from your recipe]
If you are WHITE do not go in this store. ANTHONY the manager is unprofessional and racist. Ive been going to this store for years with no problem, ever. Im 8 months pregnant so this is really the treatment I needed today. It started when he was rude when I spoke to him about the ride home when u spend a certain amount of money, he wouldnt even turn to speak to me. Then in Spanish approached my cashier saying I was trying to take the potatoes that were under my cart (already had a PAID sticker on it). So I told her she scanned it already, she charged me again then upon checking my receipt had to refund my money. They thought I couldnt understand Spanish and repeatedly spoke bad about me trying to steal then didnt apologize for being wrong. So when I was leaving I approached and told him and the other girl involved that Im not a thief and was offended but was ready for the ride home. He let me stand and wait before he let me know it would be 5 more min (smiling and being cocky the entire time). I asked him why he had a problem w me and what it was i had done to make him treat me the way he was. He waited till my (black, another reason i was treated bad) husband walked away to return the cart inside.. And approached me inside the van, yelling at me that a ride (advertised) is a favor to me. I asked him his name and he continued yelling and speaking down to me. The girl (black) he sent out at first to drive, because the man wasnt ready, was extremely rude to my husband and I, she clearly had a problem with us.. Again, NEVER had a problem at this store for years.. Again 8 months pregnant being treated like this for no reason.
Excellent produce. Canned goods are on the high spectrum butfruits and veggies prices balance your shopping experience. I must say I found a couple of canned items were out of date (2017) and brought them to staffs attention.
Great store. Better fruits and vegetables than most stores. Great prices.
Compare has torn down their fresh greens produce section to revamp it. I was sorry to find that what I went in for was not available. They do have the best greens.
