Arash International Market

Arash,

You have been my favorite HALAL store for awhile now.. please maintain that way, pretty please...

My recent visit with Hubs was on Thursday February 21st 2013.  Needed to get some Lamb.  Unfortunately they dont have the cuts that I want, but I still get some stuffs for the ingredients I need for the upcoming POTLUCK that weekend.  From Ground Beef, to Mixed Lamb Pieces and Lamb Sirloin and some of the produce I tried to get all the ingredients at Arash...

Then I also found several Frozen Pizzas, though only at the check-out I knew the price... Oh Well..

I also notice at the frozen aisle, they have OXTAIL and BEEF FEET.... Hmmm perhaps shall return next time and see whether I can get deals for these items..  The store is always kept clean.  The items are always stocked up.  The salesperson behind the Poultry/Meat counter and the rest of the staffs are always please to assist you and they are always welcoming.

The only qualm I have is the parking space outside Arash.  The day we were there, its packed.. so make sure, park properly and give way to other drivers coz things can happen in which it nearly did that evening...  

If ONLY, they can make a bigger parking space for Arash...

All in all, its always pleasant experience shopping at Arash.  Thank you, Arash...

This is a perfect little ethnic market.

Fresh meats - beef(halal), chicken and lamb
Fresh french and bulgarian feta
great selection of fresh olives which are better quality than Whole Foods but not as pricey.
Huge assortment of various tea's(chinese, english, persian)
Fresh high quality produce at ridiculously low prices
Different types of pita bread
Lots of persian and arab desserts and snacks
Delicious samosas
and everything else you'd expect from an ethnic international grocery market

The parking situation can get a little hectic on the weekends but that should be expected for a popular place like this. So, exercise patience or park a little further away. I drive down from north thornton every weekend and wouldnt have it any other way.

I live in Highlands Ranch and work in Lakewood, so this market is out of the way to say the least. But we still make a special trip to Aurora every couple of months to stock up on groceries that are superior quality to, or priced more reasonably than, what we can find close to home.

I especially recommend the Tazah brand Falafel and Tabbouli mixes, the various Feta cheeses in the deli case, the very reasonably priced T-bones and lamb chops, and their always-fresh, super low priced green, orange, yellow and red bell peppers (you may have to search for the freshest ones). The canned Dolmas (stuffed grape leaves) are very reasonably priced - I prefer the Zergut brand, which seems to come and go. But the real reason we make a special trip here is for the imported Italian pasta, which will usually run you $2 to $4 a pound at the big supermarket chains and costs $1.29 a pound at Arash for top quality pasta.

Great place, friendly service, and super prices. I wish they'd open a second location in the southern suburbs.
