My sister and son and I walked a block down 17th Street from our house on Uranus Terrace to check out the opening of the new/old Corona Heights Market & Deli. -We were greeted by sister & brother team of Mike & Mary and their adorable mom, the cook! -It was meant to be. We were having a family gathering the next day and I was trying to figure out what to serve. They were so great helping me pick the menu for 9 adults and 6 kids. -Outstanding dishes were Hummus, Mujadara, a rice or bulgar & lentil dish with carmalized onions -we got one of each, which were served with Tzakziki. Plus, Tabouli made special for my gluten free daughter with quinoa instead of bulgar. Baba Ganoush, dolmas, Garlic Bread & Italian Meat Balls, all homemade. Followed by Baklava and another delightful dessertā -Canāt wait to go back and try some of their Deli Sandwiches!! šThank you SO much for the wonderful meal and the fast service!! šI highly recommend!!š Patty...

So glad I...

We were so very glad that we did! First, you are warmly welcomed by the most wonderful family (family owned) members, each ready to make sure that you are taken care of. It is impossible to not leave without trying out some of their wonderful middle eastern HOME MADE cuisine and groceries. What they make is fresh and amazing. They have a great counter selection of middle eastern/medditeranean fare. They also have a great selection of groceries from the region that are definitely worth the look. I would highly recommend a visit! You will be a regular in no time, and feel like a family...
