Market Town — Local services in Katy

My experience with Harvest Market Katy has been a lackluster experience. Some of the discounted items that I purchased on the trolley were expired. Selling expired foods at a discounted rate is prohibited and is an unsafe practice. I noticed that some of the produce was also moldy. The meats are advertised as without hormones, however, they are poor quality and have a strange taste. Even the bottled water tastes like tap water. The prices don't align with the quality of the products.

I bought foods from the trolley on a few occasions and although I like the concept, the idea has not been executed and marketed for consumers to understand what service is being provided. As of stated above, the foods were expired, expensive, and some of the produce was moldy.

Lastly, when I called to report these concerns, the personnel that answered the phone did not understand English and would not defer my concerns to management. It seems like there are too many chiefs and not enough Indians.

This company can't be making much money. I'm sure the IRS will be auditing them soon. They are never busy. Something is definitely amiss here. I wonder if this is a money...

Sadly this was my very first time...and I can guarantee it will be my " Very Last Time". I prefer to just stick with (SPROUTS)!! For much of my organic & vitamin needs @ least we are welcomed and can shop with ease. It bothers me to think that places with people like the people @ Harvest make you feel just because you are (Black) you must be on some type of government assistance. Just know that everyone that is Black doesn't shop with a lone star card. I happen to come from (5 generations) of Military Vets.... And (5 generations of Professional Educators ) Even teaching @ some very Prestigious Institutions. So ....keep your store and YOUR very Obvious "Bourgeois Attitude" I can enjoy Fadi's Mediterranean when I want a nice lamb shank & take a 1h drive for a fresh meat at market with people who are friendly, kind & very welcoming. Customer service is everything👍 to me. I will shop & spend all I have where I'm treated with the respect for being a person not catered to or disrespected because of the color of my skin. " Born in Texas....Raised in Texas" regardless I'm still human & have feelings. Thanks but 👎 No thanks. May God...

We were in the area visiting family and stopped here to grab a quick lunch. We ordered their beef kebab pita sandwich for lunch with all the toppings. It was good.

Later, on our way home, we came back since we wanted to try their fresh-made juices. Also good.

Then we had some of their frozen sorbet by the ounce. Also good.

Then we picked up some local brand bread and coffee beans, and dried figs for home. All good.

Before we left, we got some americano coffee and stopped to sit and enjoy it in their interior cafe. At this point we noticed Luisa's, the pasta bar -- yet another little market inside this grocery store -- would be open in 10 minutes. It was getting near dinner time, so we stuck around for that.

I'm glad we did. The fresh pasta is cooked on the spot to your order, with your choice of several pastas, sauces, and toppings, served in these Chinese-style white takeout boxes. Yet again, it was delicious.

Everyone there was kind and helpful.

Man, it makes me wish I lived near here. We'll be back next time we visit...
