5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Agata & Valentina is my favorite food store in the city! The produce is the first thing you see when you walk in and it's almost irresistable - beautiful, colorful displays of really unique seasonal finds, plus a great organic selection. I have always been really impressed with their meat and fish - it's really fresh and it makes me look good when I cook for family & friends. Their specialty items and imports like olive oils, honeys, and preserves are beautifully packaged and always a discovery - I am serious when I say that I've actually done Christmans shopping at Agata for family members out of town. The only down side to the place is that it's designed like a Sicilian marketplace with LOTS of stuff packed in, so it can get congested at the busy times, but luckily the line for the registers moves pretty quickly.

Pros: Amazing products, reasonable prices for high quality, feels like a real Italian market

Cons: Occasionally congested
