Herat Market — Local services in Newark

I had such a fantastic experience here that I had to leave a review. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and genuine friendliness. The customer service was absolutely top-notch—everyone I interacted with was helpful, polite, and really seemed to care about making sure I had a good experience.

The staff at the cashier were especially kind and welcoming. They were patient, cheerful, and made the checkout process quick and pleasant. It’s not every day you come across such kind-hearted and professional people at the front desk.

Before, they were only a few minutes away from our house, now they are a half an hour round trip from my house and إن شاء الله it will not deter me. They are simply consistently the best. May Allah SWT...

i would have given 0 star if i could. I called this store to ask about the prices of just three meat items before making a purchase. Instead of a simple answer, I was met with rude and unprofessional behavior. The person on the phone dismissively asked if I wanted meat or just the price, as if I was wasting their time.

How does a business expect customers to buy something without knowing the price first? This kind of attitude is completely unacceptable. Customer service matters, and based on my experience, I won’t be...
