Editorial Review for Jefferson Market – by Nicole Weinstein
The Scene
With all the gourmet specialty shops in Gotham, how has this one managed to stick around since 1929? Not because it has the absolute top-of-the-line products or the best bargains, but because it's a basic, reasonably-priced grocery store with just enough upscale treats to satisfy foodies.
The Goods
This is one gourmet place that doesn't fancy itself too cool to present an orange, marshmallow and shredded-coconut fruit salad in the same section that shows off the best of the fois gras. The front section is devoted to staples, but deeper into Jefferson Market lies its true bounty--nearly 20 varieties of fresh olives proudly displayed in glass jars, goose-liver pate, a long glass case full of freshly prepared salads, a meat counter, a fresh fish market and a cheese wing with a deeply pungent aroma. Catering and prepared platters are available for delivery.

Jefferson Market WAS an really classy, friendly neighborhood grocery store offering high-quality food at reasonable prices. Less pretentious than the yuppie boutique stores, but much better food than you'll find at the big chains. It was really a touch of the old Village that managed to hang on until late last year. They shut down abruptly in the fall, but had a sign vowing they'd reopen. My aunt, who's lived around the corner since the 1960s, says they've been bought by another grocery chain. For now, I'm giving the "old" Jefferson Market a four-star review -- but may have to revise that based on how much the new owners have decided to ruin it. :(
Pros: friendly, high quality
Cons: re-opened under new owners?

Great place to shop. Found a great alternative with the same neighborhood grocer feeling. D'Agostino Supermarket on Univeristy Place. Just a short walk aross on 10th Street to University Place , located next to the Resouvior Bar. The staff is great Very friendly and attentive to your needs. The store is well stocked and clean. The lines are quick. They have a great S7H Shopping Program, Collect points and reddem them for geat priced items. Can save you money for the savy shopper. Use their On Line Shopping service, was quick and easy and save me lot's of time.
