This little shop is great! Awesome candy, cheese, meat, pastry and frozen pierogi selection! And the lady we had the pleasure of meeting was very kind and friendly! If you are in the area, be sure to stop by, ask for lots of suggestions and go home and stuff your face!

The selection here is excellent, and they stock the hard-to-find Georgian wines my parents like. Both owners are ridiculously nice and genuinely helpful — really appreciated Vlad’s advice on other wines my mom might enjoy when I was in shopping for her birthday. He was spot-on, and she loved all three. My folks also liked the liqueur-infused candy he recommended, and both owners threw in a little extra treat with the big purchases which is just very sweet. Love this store and the folks running it.

I am in love with this place. Vladimir and his wife are super nice folks originally from Moscow. They have a great selection of all kinds of jarred salads and spreads as well as cheeses and fresh salads. My husband is in love with the herring salad and I love the Odessa carrot salad. They also bake nice hearty rustic loaves daily and have a good selection of meats and fish. He carries killer kvas and all the Russian candies I can remember. His bulk candy section is awesome. This is such a great little local business. Even if you aren’t Eastern European(we aren’t), there’s plenty of fun new things to try and Vladimir is great with recommendations.

This tiny hole-in-the wall grocery is tucked into a small strip mall right on the corner of E. Casino in Everett. Blink and you could miss it. Inside, the space is limited, but they have a good variety of eastern European goods. The selection looks to be mostly Russian/Ukraine and Polish. Teas, cakes, pierogies, pelemini, a huge deli case filled with smoked fish, sour creams, imported caviar, and various varieties of smoked meats. There is a large pickled vegetable selection here as well. Prices are very good in retrospect to some euro groceries I have been to in Seattle and surrounding. I picked up a REAL Kielbasa and a box of imported Russian balm tea for under 10 dollars. The proprietor is Polish, but speaks very good English so don’t hesitate to ask her any questions if you don’t know quite what you are looking for. With good prices and a great location, I will be frequenting this little grocer a lot more in the future.
