Awesome Ethnic market! I especially love the fresh bread. It’s located on the northeast corner o 14 mile rd. and Haggerty Rd.

I ‘found’ Ishtar about six months ago and fell in love. The fresh baked bread is great and cheap — 5 for $ 1.50. And the produce prices are very low. Example: Large eggplant ranges from $ .88 to $ 1.25EACH not per pound. SPICES. a large selection of spices and very low prices. I have found the staff to be helpful. Since finding Ishtar, I have shopped several similar markets and found that none have the selection or price.

I like the selection of produce and Middle Eastern goodies here(they even sell Iraqi loofa, so it definitely taps into my nostalgia). The prices are very competitive, and they have good Iraqi bread(sammoon hajari). Halaw 3eni! :) My one problem is that the staff is not very attentive. As some other reviewers have pointed out, most of the staff seem to simply not care. There are a few that are nice and pleasant, but that is the exception. For example, a customer and I stood in front of the bakery to order bread but nobody would help us. One of the workers even walked up to us, picked up a kettle of tea, and walked back and simply motioned for us to wait. After almost ten minutes someone came and told us they no longer have freshly baked bread because it was late in the day(4pm). I don’t want this to be a deterrent from your experience of getting good food. Just make sure you have realistic expectations.

Love the hot bread! Bakery items sell fast, so «they have what they have when they have it,» if you know what I mean :) If it’s your lucky day, you’ll be in for a real treat!

Freshly baked bread and cow tongue. This ethnic market looks like a more traditional grocery stores than the middle eastern markets I’m used to. Shopping carts, aisle numbers and descriptions and cute little signs make me feel as if I’m visiting a normal grocery store in another country!

Watch out for bad meat «Fresh» meat we bought there was spoiled two days later when my wife was ready to cook it. The meat was kept in the fridge, of course. The manager didn’t apologize, he even refused to exchange or refund it claiming it had to be used the next day(makes me wonder just what kind of meat do they sell if it’s unsafe to keep it in the refrigerator for any longer than one day ?) Good job losing a return customer. I no longer shop there and I question the quality of the produce they sell, after this experience.

Great little grocery store that has AMAZING Iraqi bread you get piping hot, fresh from the oven. And the bread is cheap– $ 1.25 for 5 large pieces. It’s kinda like a pita/flat bread, in a diamond shape. My 5 year old asks to go there for the bread.

The thing I love about this place is their fresh baked bread straight from the clay oven. BUT be aware… they manage to over charge me on several occasions… now I just calculate everything in my head and make sure it adds up. OH! Their ghamar is yum.(Gaay-marr)

I work nearby and have been shopping here for the past five years. Good selection of fresh produce, bulk and canned foods. They carry Victor yogurt which has a layer of real cream on the top, does not have gums or pectin to fake thicken the yogurt,(yogurt jello). Fresh baked hot out of the oven Iranian bread, they even have whole wheat loaves. friendly, helpful staff.

I live nearby, and came into this store to find some spices to cook African food. Did not find what I was looking for, but wanted to browse as I have spent some time in the Middle East and love the food. The clerk was short with me when I asked for assistance. Which made me feel unwelcome, despite making a purchase.
