LoSurdo's | Fresh Food Grocer — Local services in Sydney

Honestly, I am surprised by all the glowing praise in other reviews. My experience is really quite the opposite. I find their wares frequently inferior and less fresh than even Woolies. More than once have I seen produce past their use-by (NOT best-before) date, including chicken or gnocci, still for sale - is that even legal?? Those items were sitting in the shelves, reduced by a ridiculously small amount. It also irks me that while they officially close at 6pm, they start packing up at around 5. By 5:30, all the specials and fresh fruit/veges are either gone to cool storage or clock up the ailes. Better not ask the staff to get you some, you'll be snarled at at best. Worst offence possible: Trying to enter, say, at 5:45 pm! With the exception of some of th check-out ladies, staff are extremely rude. Zero customer service mentality. I will not shop there again. Either Woolies will do, or I'll drive to Harris Farm for quality produce and good,...

One of the most beautiful fruit and veggie stores that I have ever been to. It is very well organised and brightly lit. There is also a large amount of parking outside the store, which also makes it a more enjoyable experience. The store is easy to navigate and seems to have high quality, and unique/exotic fruits. The guy was really trying to sell the White Strawberries to me. I had come especially for these, but didn’t expect the price tag hahah.

Regarding the strawberries, they’re definitely unique and different. They smell so so sweet, but if I closed my eyes and someone fed me one, I’m not sure it would taste any different to a normal strawberry. Either way, this store is definitely an enjoyable store to visit and walk through, and you may find yourself leaving with...

The produce is wonderfully fresh and uniformly delicious (though the pricetags are steep. Sooooo steep. Like a toddler-climbing-Everest level of steeptitude. But, this is Northbridge, so gougers gotta gouge, I guess!). The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because the woman who typically works the registers during the week is appallingly rude. You know who you are, Madame. Customers are a bane, a blight, a hassle and a headache to you... unless, of course, they happen to be spending a metric craptonne of money, in which case, your manners improve immensely. I, however, with my lone bunches of spring onions and occasional Hass avocado elicit nothing but eye rolls and sighs heaved from someplace deep inside you (your left femur, perhaps?)....
