C-Town

I literally have one question… What’s the need to bring all your 47 kids with you to go pick up some groceries !!!

I just moved into the neighborhood and needed to pick up some quick groceries after work and I can say I will never go back. I needed three things including cat litter. I walked in and there was a guy blocking my way to get a cart. Then I was asked to check my bag. Unfortunately, maybe I look too white for them because no one wanted to help me (I’m Puerto Rican). Three different employees walked right by me. Well they changed those tune after I started speaking Spanish. I finally found the litter but they only had one brand and someone had stacked several stacks of heavy cans in front of it. I had to grab the litter but topped a stack. Who stacks merchandise on the floor and then leaves it there. Needless the say; I got the litter and ran out. The place overall is dirty and unless you speak Spanish forget about shopping there.

If I can give this place negative stars I will definitely do it in a heartbeat. They need to thank me for the generous one star.
Terrible terrible service. None of the staff seems to even try to care about customer satisfaction. The stock staff on the floor were too occupied with whatever they were doing and with Spanish music in both their ears while on the job, highly unprofessional. Needless to say their priorities are their music and stocking, customers seeking help are definitely not included in their job description, they definitely made us clear of that. To add onto the already memorable experience, cashier was slamming my fruits into bags as they bag them.
To top it all off, the space was beyond claustrophobic. In my personal opinion, there were too many staff there holding up space in the already narrow aisles, getting in the way of shopping experiences since they were no help at all. Locals pushing carts and strollers down the aisle between the tiniest spaces, we pushed and shoved our way through the store as if it was Black Friday in the middle of Summer.
I am disgusted at this place. I believe in second chances and am never too quick to give a negative review towards an establishment after one visit. But I am almost certain that there’s no hope for this place. Goodbye and I will not be returning anytime in the course of my lifetime unless the many markets in the area are closed.
AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE

This is the circle of hell that Dante forgot to mention in the infamous Inferno, BURN C-​Town for the arrogant management and staff that watch over you with horns already sticking out.
The BBB needs to come and take a look at this place for its violations in false advertisements and failure to honor their own advertised rates.
C-​Town corporate needs to come and take a look at what these folks are even doing in here. Every single stock person has either headphones on jammin to their own tunes or their phones out like a jukebox hoping that you, the consumer doesn’t hear it.
The health department needs to come and inspect this place because I have seen dead rodents tucked under their piled upon piles of inventory.
Management just doesn’t seem to care. I spoke to Felipe, God-​willing if that’s even his name. Shrugged and just did not care. Resumes to standing stationed by the door all day long.
This location received high traffic due to its low deals from time to time, and seem to be a favorite amongst the locals, however over the years the crowd seemed to have diminished gradually. After reading fellow Unilocal reviews and basing off of my personal experiences here. Their lack of willingness to partake in customer service and effort to improve their staff assembly will eventually lead to their demise.

Everyone who works here is really nice. For a smaller grocery store, they have a good selection, from Latin vegetables to fake meats. Also, they play all the hits. Whenever I leave I have a Katy Perry/​Rihanna song stuck in my head, and I love it. My only complaint is the fruit. They have good veggies, but the fruit selection tends to be lacking.

Yes it’s crowded on weekends… but during the week it is much better. Their meat and produce are fresh. I walk past every morning on my way to work and they are always unloading meat and produce… and it’s not the Sh*tty quality produce you find in the bodegas around… it’s good sh*t…and they are really cheap! I guess that’s why they are so crowded! They do cater more for Latin Americans… I see a lot of Mexicans shopping there. Their aisles are small but the workers really try to help you out a lot with your cart… I would have given 5 stars if not for the crowded aisles… but their prices are cheap and their sales are great!

ALWAYS crowded on the weekends and its not even really that good of a supermarket, but for some reason there is always like a million people in this place. Why?

The nightmares I get from this place astonish me. Where thus one even begin to explain, the awful, horrish teeth-​pulling, nail janking, water torture, guillotine head chopping, wanna jump off the Verrazano Bridge experience.
You step into this place and you’re already stuck in its trap, if you suffer from claustrophobia, stay the f*ck away from the meat aisle. its packed with mad people, I literally feared for my wallets safety (as well as my life, j/​k). I ask the staff if the specials they had advertised were accurate, they told me the following «Only the ones shown on the front page… not the ones in the center pages, those apply to white people Ctowns»…I was like Oh I get it, this isn’t Ctown?, since is in the ‘hood, its a Sh*ttown? I was taken aback by several of the workers responses.
The worst part of this Ctown is its potential hazard, this place is been in Sunset Park forever, but why do they only have one door for everything. Is it just me, but isn’t that like a fire hazard or something?.
Anyway, my experience at the checkout, One of the workers, pushed my cart sideways, and warned me to stand inside the checkout lane line, because it helped things move along, in other words this place is packed and we want you to get the fuck atta here ASAP. He also took all my goods out and placed it on the conveyor belt. I was mad cause was trying to get the specials, but he kept putting everything on the belt, and I had to spend more in order to get the specials. My fingers are beginning to hurt from all this typing.
My advice to all my Unilocalers, STAY THE HELL OUT OF THIS PLACE, AVOID THIS PLACE LIKE ANTHRAX. SERIOUSLY, PEOPLE. NEVER EVER EVER AGAIN!!! This is NOT CTOWN, This IS SH*T TOWN!
