International Food Market & Cafe

This store has many options. Fresh produce, bread, pastries and all other things you would find in a grocerie store. Manly Turkish food to buy. The store says International so I thought it would be other nationalities to choose from but there isn't. If you have never been there the name could be a little confusing entering the store.

The most delicious & crispy croissants, pastries, and falafel anywhere in Rochester. (Flour City Bakery doesn’t even come close!) My first visit blew me away with the vast assortment of imported food and non-food items, the hot homemade Mediterranean dishes, and the range of pita selections and other breads are wonderful too - and comparatively cheap! We’re so lucky to have this market in Rochester. There’s nothing like it!

This ethnic food market offers a great deal of authentic Middle Eastern food items. Apparently the store is opening in different phases, but as of now, it looks like a full blown supermarket.

I recommend trying their fresh made food from their kitchen and the Turkish coffee and pastry. I had first hand contact with the owner family and they seem hard-working, simple, honest people.

Some of the food items coming from overseas are really good quality, almost organic by nature. For example, high fructose corn syrup does not exist in many of those countries this products are sourced from. all they use is natural sugar.

As a rule, if the ingredient list of in a jam fits in half a line that means it’s a good quality and reliable. Alternatively, if the ingredients consist of one full paragraph I do not bother buying it.

Found this place by pure luck! Plenty parking space, huge store by not all aisles are packed and full, regardless they have a lot of essential items. Clean and well stocked. I loved it. Variety of foods from all over the world, mostly Turkish and Mediterranean.

Amazing store with a cafe to relax and have to tea after shopping! Always buy my halal meats from here for quality and price. Must try their Nema Hot Soujouk and Chocolate Baklava. Love this place!

We had lunch at the café and the selection of Greek and Turkish food we tried was delicious!

The staff was super friendly and helped us understand every dish and ingredients, and the Turkish coffee and Baklava we had for dessert was fabulous. Highly recommended spot!

There is a very nice selection of food in this marketplace. My son bought a box of Turkish Delights and jelly-filled Croissants. We also wanted to see the other items in the store since this was our first time in the store since it opened for business.

The most delicious new flavors I’ve ever tasted in a while, everything in this place is amazing, the food and desserts from the cafe are spectacular and the service is great, do yourself and your appetite a favor and come to this amazing experience of a restaurant, believe me your soul will be rewarded, I don’t know the names of the food we tried but everything is amazing

As an international, I am more than satisfied with the selection, especially on Turkish stuff. I am not sure if I could find this variety in my grocery store back in Turkey. Top notch!

Nice selection of Halal meat on a good price. Specially try their sirloin steaks.

The whole chicken cutup is sometimes not cleaned and cut up properly as the bones are broken. It is also sometimes too big of a size.

Good variety of halal and Arab groceries.

The new place is amazing. It is very well organized and huge. Very neat and clean and properly marked isles

Probably the best lamb kebab I’ve ever ever had; the flavor was great, and the pieces were juicy and tender. The rice was also very moist and flavorful.

After moving to the new location, they got better and become more professional. I like the new restaurant setup and the food is very delicious.

I've been on the quest for a burger reminiscent of my favorite spot in NYC, and I've finally found it here.

The burger is incredibly fresh with locally sourced meat, juicy, and spiced to perfection. Surprisingly, this hidden gem, known for its Mediterranean cuisine, offers a delightful fusion of Turkish, Indian, Arabic flavors. The variety of baklavas is a pleasant surprise beyond the usual types.

Beyond burgers, they serve lamb, goat, chicken butter, and more. My girlfriend enjoyed their goat and rice with eggplant – a delicious choice worth trying. Give this place a shot!

P.S. they have Peruvian products for those who are searching far and wide in Rochester.

The International Food Market is just amazing. Great prices, great selection, lots of wonderful ingredients that you just can't find anywhere else. When you're looking for spices, rice, dried beans, preserved fruits, a great selection of coffees and teas, this is the place to come.

This place is a real Gem of rochester, with diverse International Food ranging from their core items of Turkish food to the Middle East to Africa. The dine-in experience is also fantastic, got a Beyti Kabob and Turkish coffee

Decided to stop here on our way through the area. Excellent variety of foods from all over the world. I didn’t order from the cafe but the seating area looked extremely nice!

The Café is so peaceful and beautiful. I love to shop here and then have tea and apple turnover pastry, it’s absolutely delicious!! Great place to shop with great prices and amazing cafe to relax afterwards. It’s like a mini world foods store. Love it!

Love this place, authentic foods variety of choices and decent prices. The Cafe food is delicious I was helped by Fatima and she was kind and knowledgeable. I tried the rice with lamb and it tasted great.

The place was clean and organized. I found products from many different countries that I had visited; now I can cook my international food!!!!

This is a great store for variety of international products. I have been going here for long time had no problem with any of there products. Looking at some other reviews about their sodas, I have never had any issues with any of my sodas :)
