Arash International Market - Aurora, Colorado

Great food, atrocious parking!

The meat here is delicious! Really good olives and dried dates. So are all the fruits and veggies, the sweets and nuts are great. They even had some Belarusian fish roe spread, I never thought I'd ever see my childhood favorite here in Denver!

The parking lot though... Oh, boy. It's horrifying. So cramped, so tight and always packed. Trying to weasel your way out of there will give the chillest person a panic attack.

Quite a selection of products from Lebanon, Turkey, Jordan and many other Middle Eastern countries, especially many types of fresh feta cheeses not seen in other places.

These people CLEARLY have not realized they have outgrown this small area!!!! Worst parking in state of Colorado period!!! (Other business have put signs for no parking for this store) WAKE UP!!!!!!!

First visit.

Size-wise, double or triple a regular 7-11.

Variety is great! Meat, fresh vegetables, fruit, deli, dairy, etc..
Overall, much much better than other grocery stores (of other countries)...nearly comparable to the Asian supermarket I have visited.

Was able to purchase items from diff. Middle Eastern countries and wanted more to try so a definite return is guaranteed.

Why only 4-stars?

Have to say, parking is horrendous!

I visited on a Thursday afternoon and the line of cars waiting for a spot was long.
Though there was an adjacent business establishment with a lot of available parking spots, BIG signs warning that those were NOT available/open for ARASH patrons.

And if you do find a parking spot, the driving out of your spot poses another problem with cars congesting the driveway, waiting.

I could be wrong but, thinking about it, Thursdays and Fridays are weekends for most of the patrons/countries this store cater to, therefore, the big number of customers that time.

I will try visiting on another day and update this review.

Otherwise, good source of Middle Eastern and some other.European countries' goods.

Arash is an unique international market around Denver specializing with n middle east asian food and groceries. You can get veggies, fruits, spices, nuts meat etc. prices are competitive. I have always seen this place crowded and people love shopping here. The beef, lamb, goat meat are very good and high quality. Hand made Breads from middle eastern countries are also something you should try . We found parking could be little difficult at times. Highly recommend this shop.

Management needs to get numbers and use them at the meat and cheese counter!!!!!

This is the third time recently some rude customers jumped in line in front of everyone else! Today, a man and wife who said it was their first time in the store, myself, and another lady were waiting. The guys working were super busy and doing their best.

Then this other woman who had just shown up tried to go next, and another lady jumped in front of the man and his wife. The poor counter guy asked several times who was next. One lady pretended like she said the guy was next but still got her white cheese. What a liar! I was literally telling the worker the guy was next and then me. It was total chaos!

I walked away and paid for a couple of other things and left. I was going to get two kinds of meat, white cheese, olives, and mortadella. Instead, they lost my money, and I probably won't get that stuff here anymore

I love this store and have been coming since they first opened at the original location. It's unfortunate some really rude customers can't wait a few more minutes!

I've been shopping in this store for around 15 years. The reason is that it has some products that I can't find in regular grocery stores. It has good good stuff, but there are two problems. First, it's not clean most of the time. Second, most of the people who work there are rude and need social skills to deal with customers!

My wife and her friend were recently at Arash and had a rather disturbing encounter with staff. According to my wife, one of the staff walked up to her and with no provocation the staff member spit at my wife’s feet. I don’t know if this is because my wife and her friend are East African, that she wasn’t wearing a hijab, or because she was taking a while to shop? My wife is extremely polite and well mannered in public. There is no excuse for staff to treat her in such a disrespectful way. It’s such a shame, because I really like the cleanliness and selection of this store. It’s too bad the staff are so rude and disrespectful. Unfortunately we won’t be returning.
