Reviews of IGA Lipari Côte-St-Luc (Fruit Store)

Tigran Aroutiunian

Staff is very mean and not polite. Zero respect for customers. They made me put recicle items in the garbage ????️.

Rizwan Hasan

Decent food with good services !

Rachelle Lacombe

I would like this place to be a clothing optional supermarket, but apparently the management team finds that to be an odd suggestion. Well, I won't be back until the clothes can come off.

Honey X

Great team! I loved my coworkers at IGA.

alix khoram

Good price

Teenoushh

The black guy at the seafood stand all the way to the back will help you with anything seafood. He can teach you how to differentiate a female lobster ???? to a male lobster ????

ARTHUR “TECHXPERT”

Way too many people holding up the cashier's long line's..

Brandon Vergara

the staff are super friendly. food well stocked. the store is clean and items are easy to find. butcher counter people are great too.

Girish Acharya

fruits and veg are fresh and lot of kosher products available as well.. a large IGA comparatively

PERSIAN PERSIAN

you're better off if you go to Cavendish Mall IGA .. no variety of products .

Ya like jazz?

I think its a great supermarket! The food is good and it has like... Everything! Drinks, vegetables & fruits, bread, cakes, cookies, cupcakes, ice cream, donuts, popcorn, beer, meat, fish and more! And its not expired and it tastes good!

Michael Metzen

A hughe grocery store with a fresh fish station, a butchery and lots more. Has kosher products.

Elizabeth Munoz

It is in my opinion, one of the best IGAs in the city. It has a lot of choices, especially kosher food. They have a large variety of bread, freshly-made challah bread and others. The variety of products there is very very good. There is a huge gluten free section as well as peanut free. They have products that you just don't find another stores.

Daniel Master

Well, this IGA is lacking many of the staff. So usually we are going to the one in Cavendish mall.

Stefan Tudor

Big improvement since the renovations 2 years ago

Jayashree

Quality stuff..always fresh and meet to the expectation. Good behaved and professional staff.

Mike Silbiger

Worst service I've seen at an IGA. I've been shopping there for years and I can tell you that the last 2-3 months have been horrible. From rude cashiers to no semblance of order on how to line up at the cashes.

Gotstuff Stoppa

Fantastic employees. They make IGA what it is.

Berti Eskanazi

Frendly service and unbeatable prices

Chantal Boucher

Always great service. The manager Peter has always gone out of his way to get things I wanted that weren't stocked in the store originally.

Bryan Haley

Have much of what you will need plus they have added interesting fresh baked breads

Amiral Service

Second day trying to find raw lobsters. Nothing in stock.

David's workshop

Blonde lady manager is very rude and always tries to show that she has some power in the store, just don't break your head and go to see the actual store manager

Konstantin

Best Place in CSL where you can find all type of food and and much more. Excellent staff with extensive customer experience????????????????????

Shinobi_Prime

Amazing, never had a grocery store so polite

Steve

The workers at the CSL mall IGA need thick skin to deal with the self-important and entitled clientele, who are pushy and rude, one being more important than the next. It can be a trying experience for outsiders, believe me. As for the food, it is generally pretty good. The vegetables are usually fresh, as is the meats. However, I have noticed that chicken breasts have become lower quality, and I am 100% certain that they are practicing water injection, as the chicken has been very plump and watery, and will it brown easily due to the high water concentration. When cooked, the chicken loses almost half its weight, that is a sure sign of cheating. I have also noticed that filets are glued together using whatever industry cheats used in that process, which allows scrap meats to be literally hours together to simulate a larger cut of meat.

naeem Sherzad

I like shopping at IGA They have good quality goods

Mike Vasilescu

moldy food found in this IGA. Rotten avocado. Bad smelling meat. Here is what I bought today. Panettone cake, moldy all over. Avoid this store!

April Denomme

This IGA is honestly one of the best. I have had nothing but good experiences here and have found that the management truly cares about their clients. The staff are friendly and helpful and during this time (CoVid-19) they have handled it very professionally but not in a way that makes things feel like a dystopian movie. Good place. Good people.

John Jacob

Very nice store. Good service.

scargot P

I found the gluten free pizzas

Miss W.

Very good grocery store. Lots of different products you can't find elsewhere. Super deli counter with very nice and efficient staff. Great produce selection. Wish they would have Cara Cara oranges!. The aisles are full of stuff. They also …

Habib Rabiei

Great supermarket

Adam Charron

They have decent produce and meat. Not the cleanest though

Jonathan Gallant-Mills

I never seem to find what I'm looking for here. Obviously a supermarket can only hold so many items but I think this one could use a little more diversity.

Maryam Z

This IGA has the option of taking the groceries and putting them in the car. Very helpful

Razvan Zamfir

I love that I can find gluten free, lactose free products, but if it wasn't the closest grocery store next to me, I'd have a hard time going there. The registers: always busy, no matter when I go ... though God forbid you go in the weekend …

Kate Apanovich

Pretty huge iga. Good selection of things. Clean. Service is ok.

Corina NOLLA

Cool

Mustapha “Moul Lma7al” Laghzaoui

This IGA needs some serious renovation.. it's old and it smells of mold all over

N Com

Well lit and good selection of produce.

Charles-Li Benard

Good fresh salmon deals every month. Just get to know your butcher

felicity little

Its a grocery store what else can i say? But the tall guy at the seafood counter is fun to talk to

Lukas Mathias Woronchak

Renovations look amazing! Wonderful selection of products

Frank Chalk

Entered the IGA to pay for and pick up my groceries at the scheduled time today. Check out cashier discovered my $50 order had been deleted earlier in the day after bringing over the manager in charge. Eventually, her superior instructed the cashier to re-enter all my items so I could pay for them. I was left standing with no answers despite asking the cashier if I could wait outside until she completed the entries. Finally, I could pay the bill. Now the cashier called over another employee, who started walking towards the other side of the front of the store. This employee also remained silent when I asked a question about where I could pick up my groceries. Never looking at me or speaking to me, he gathered some bags of groceries and put them in a large plastic car order box. He then tossed the box onto the rollers and pushed it. I asked him if I should bring my car to the front of the store. No answer. He walked away. I went outside to look for my groceries. The box was sitting out of reach at the conveyor opening. No employee was around to retrieve it. At last, seeing me gesticulating towards the employees inside the store, a considerate employee walked over to me, retrieved the box, and put the groceries into my car when I drove up. The whole process of picking up my order at the time arranged with the Cote St Luc Road IGA took about 30 minutes. Unbelievable.

brett myles

Always well treated. Always helpful. Customers are rude though. .no great wonder some feel mistreated

Silvia Conde

good place , most all the time i found all i need. just..vegetables and fruits are expensive... compared to others groceries stores

Maria Pia Aguilera

Great selection of organic, kosher and local produce!! And the bakery makes delicious cakes and breads!

Ricardo Fernandez

During a cold cold night you can feel the men and boys running errands with their girls on the phone screaming at them inssesantly and mercilessly. 10/10 would come back

Ryk Edelstein

Not just any IGA, this IGA is like little Jerusalem. The selection of Kosher and international foods is impressive compared to most other grocers. At IGA Cote St. Luc, international is more than a shelf of Ortega taco shells and sauces.

Kenicherie

Growing up, I had this misconception that IGA was overpriced and to avoid it. Now that I buy my own groceries, I realize what a lie I was living. …

Chantal La Duke

Every online order has errors. When they failed to provide two car boxes from my order because they were incorrectly labelled, they refused to send them out with the delivery team, instead demanding that I had to return to show my receipt to prove they were mine (the receipt and detailed order summary are prepared in duplicate and the store keeps one copy when you order online). Shoddy and sloppy, rude staff. NEVER set foot in the store again after the manager made endless excuses instead of apologizing. I would NEVER recommend this location to anyone. If you're paying the premium prices of a brand name store like IGA, great customer service is an expected part of the package. Epic failure here.

Jerome Parker

Great place to shop. Always good deals and the staff is very nice.

Alicia

The produce and meat is nice and fresh. The selection of stuff they have is small but well tailored in my opinion. Staff is friendly.

Blo Bo

Good for grocery shopping

Gennadiy Agarunov

A good supermarket, large parking lot, wide assortment of goods.

Siamak Arbatani

They use fusty oil in bakery. Don't try the donuts at any cost. Some bakery staff are very rude. Highly overpriced goods. The store has no competitor nearby, so they sell overpriced stuff.

Andrew MacDonald

Most disgusting customer service and the owner is sick in the head! I had one question and was immediately responded with snarky attitude by a manager who wouldn't let me finish my sentence and when I was persistent on asking my question the owner came and told me to leave. The store smells of fish from the poor or maybe non-existent ventilation in the Kosher section and I am allergic to fish. I have shopped here for almost a year sometimes daily and this experience will guarantee I never go here again. If you value customer service and being heard as a consumer DO NOT shop here. I will walk the 8 blocks to the Metro Grocery store from now on.

Karen Reinhold

The aisles are too narrow.

maureen roth

I am a customer of IGA in the Cote St. Luc Shopping Centre as well as the Cavendish Mall. I always buy my regular Bar B.Q. chicken in the huge plastic container on the display table. I was in the store (CSL) on Saturday, May 2nd, to place …

It's Lucas

Food is usually overpriced but the bakery section is good. Convenient if you're in the area

kristina delossantos

I placed an online order on Feb 17, when I called the following day to add a couple of items , I was not only transfered five times before I was finally connected to the right department, the woman who answered the phone told me Ithere was no order for me. She had terrible manners and didn't speak English properly. The delivery came on time but I wasn't able to get the extra items that I needed. They should hire people that treat the customers with respect.

Danner mags

Has everything any iga would have, the owner is a cheap ass it still looks like the early 1990's...its ugly but functional. Nice staff

Matt Dinsmore

Convenient location and car order pickup.

The Dude

Great little IGA in Cote St Luc. Friendly & helpful staff, always clean, and has lots of food options for all cooking needs.

David Go

Depends on day but in general always look for the deals

dotdotdot With Skquige

Lots of choices always pritty bizzy

Adejoke Okewole

Very interesting place to shop

Viktoriya M

Great store! Always has a vaste choice of products and good deals. Very friendly and attentive staff.

Emily Ra

the groceries my not be the best price but it's the nice quality and is well organized.

Mukund Iyer Rajamony

Very well stocked. Tap pay works. Nice place to park.

Mathieu Hamel

Good food. ????????????

Nelson Tremblay

Love shopping here

A M

Kosher section and nice organic section. Their online grocery service is also great

Alyssia De Sève-Paré

90 % of the staff is unpleasant and won't understand basic French sentences like "je vais payer par visa". Also, the cashiers will almost always just stare at you while you're putting your things in your bags and not even answer to "goodbye"....

Yannick Trudel (Yaman)

Interesting, but old. Not the cleanest of IGAs

Rachel Meyer

One of the better IGAs I have had the pleasure of living close to. Some of the cashiers here remember regulars by name and greet them with a huge smile and friendly banter. In terms of selection, this IGA's just about got it all, including a sizeable kosher and organic section.

Shea Werner

Nice selection, we were late and they really wished is. Careful what you take some items were very overpriced

Miss Kothy

Ok

Maurice Colarosa

The ground beef is a portion for a family of one ????

Bb Jssjjssmwmo

good iga theres samples on some days

Brent McLennan

Decent selection and very clean. Large Kosher section which makes sense considering the location.

Tania Johnson

Varies of collection and staff are the best polite

Tania Kiaizadeh

A wide selection of international foods, spices. A great butcher section with friendly staff. Thank you

Paria RK

It's a large supermarket,I like it. It's better if there are more vegetables items.

Brendan Schwartz

Good, but super expensive.

brendt de vera

One of my best shopping supermarket, they have everything you need for every day essentials, you name it...

Bugsy bonta

You find almost everything at cavendish Mall very properly big selection of food

DimiTeatree

Lots of vegan products, big grocery store.

Hannah Hackney

Kind of expensive but they have good variety, including Jewish specialty foods that you can't find everywhere.

Adam Goldberg

Could have a better selection. Staff is super nice and helpful though.

Aswin Mathew

Covid safety measures are in place and well stocked. Nice staff and faster tills.

Russell Lloyd

It's kind of small for a supermarket, but you can find must things that you need. I came looking for vitamins once and was told they didn't have them. I didn't believe the guy so I walked up and down all the aisle. Sure enough! No vitamins. That seems a strange thing for a supermarket to not carry. But they are open a bit later than most grocery stores in the area so that's a plus for those later evening emergencies.

Vladimir Volinsky

A big supermarket, good meat choice at good prices. A lot of space but still not all big brands available. Fish department could be better as well as milk choice. The cakes not successful with a lot of chemical ingredients for no reason as it tastes bad... all of them.

Allan Abramovitch

Their lunch counter of prepared foods has a great selection and the prices are very reasonable. A great alternative to the fast food places closeby.

Katherine Chighladze

Local grocery store. Shop there often. Has everything you might need from a groceries store.

Claude La Roque

Excellent super market run & managed by owners who sincerely care about their customers.

amanda begonia

This bad review is only because they wrap a lot of produce in plastic wrap when its not needed at all (for example, an avocado). Do the environment a favour and cut out the plastic!!! It's so unnecessary and wasteful!!

Bilal Ahmad khan

Nice place

DShiny Star

Great peoples alert

Michael Zuker

Found everything I was looking for. I like the car order service.

wesley gorin

Easy to find what you need

Hongry Monke

Its simple and convenient.

Joey Musacchio

Very crowded, only 1 line for the cash register, a better covid-19 protocol would help, but even they don't control restrictions in Montréal. Sometimes pricey but quality products.

light yeshua

Ok thanks ????

Annihilator 1995

its A Pretty Good Shopping Place. Theres a wine store in it as well.

Phoenyx Brittion

Oh my God I spent 5 hours.

Bob Bartos

The only reason I like this iga....its across the street from me.

Angie P

Nice kosher section, good and fast ready to eat counter

Alice K

Very good assortment of foods for a newly restricted diet.

Christos Petsinis

shopping

Norma Santana-Becerra

A little high in price, but the meat quality is good

Robert J Dunn

A great variety of produce. The best place to get kosher food.

Ioana I. Mocanu

Pas super propre, mais c'est bien. On n'attend pas trop. But the cleanest, but it's stocked and staffed, so lines never get too long.

Ashkan Golizeh

Just like other IGA stores, it's big, clean and provides high-quality products, dairies, groceries and half-prepared and home-made foods.

Mila Araujo

A lot of these reviews focus on customer service. The few times I've needed something from the butcher section they've been helpful. In addition they do offer car orders and delivery, so...that's better than a few other places these days. …

Vendim Karabrahimi

From the manager (Pino) to the staffs (Rovelinda, K Ron, & Laura) are very friendly.

bruce timmis

I recently moved back to Montreal from the West Coast where I worked as a retail manager and I have never seen such rude customer service.I approached the cashier and with a smile said bonjour,,No answer,so I said hello and still nothing !!!!!! Not a greeting or a smile. I even had to say,,It's okay I don't need a bag.Thinking a little more staff training needs to be done.Customer service is the #1 asset to any company.

keisha richardson

I love this place, everything fresh!

Catalin Deluxus

Consistently poor customer service here, especially at the consigne booth. This IGA refuses consigné bottles purchased on premises! Nice false eco-friendly image you're trying to push, IGA, you're lying! Update: The response from owner below is a PR lie supposed to make you feel better. They didn't return my email in weeks.a

Amina Ali

It is not the cheapest among grocery shops in Montreal. But most of the producs are organic

Sohrab Falahatkar

They have everything you need for weekly groceries, organic lines of food, the meats are always fresh, staff is helpful.

Daniel Grant

Love this store has good deals

Ben Kasapiano

This place doesn't care about the customer. I was at the cash and picked up a chocolate bar from the rack that said $2.99 when I got to the cash it scanned at $4.49. I told the cashier but all she did was call a clerk to verify the price. Apparently THEY placed the bars at the wrong place. I was told that's the price take it or leave it. When I went to the "courtesy" counter. They said a clue t probably changed their minds and left it there. I told the woman that there was a pile of them wrongly labeled she said "okay" and that's it. This place has gone way down since the new owner took over. I e been shopping here since 2000 and have never had a problem before the new person took over.

L KC

There is only one employee I never want him anywhere around me, ever. Rude

Mark Marcille

Average. Lineups at cash r long, and staff does there best to avoid u.

Grigor Saakov

There were a lot of people in the store, but the staff could manage the situation. Toilet paper was available ????

Vibhor Garg

IGA is very expensive compared to Wal-Mart for that matter. I prefer to go only when i am buying in small quantities.

Voiles Auxvents

the only thing i dont like about this market is i cant bring cart to my car after shoping car service was close and i have a disability so had to let groceries in cart drive car next to it to put my grocerie in my car. that's not covienient

susan montgrain

Staff is very friendly and helpful

Lisette Brown

I am really pleased with the service and the products that's why I always come back.

Isabelle Zilkha

Missing a lot of the things we were looking for. Didn't have much choices. But maybe because it was the end of the day.

Christopher Cosentino

Do all my shopping there. Deli staff, are fantastic.

Alex D'Amico

Good selection of different foods. Under renovation. Harder to find items due to renovations.

Sheldon Mandelker

Very friendly. NOT like the other IGA in CSL

Yardena Schrier

The Twitch Podcast

Manager was very rude. I didn’t understand why they wouldn’t scan my Mise O Jeu barcode from my phone. When I asked to write it down on the paper, they told me they didn’t have any.

Dad of Two

They sell everything, but the price is on the expensive side. Sales bring the price down to a more reasonable level. The quality of products is good, except the food though...

Jason Lavers

Great place à bit small but found all that I wanted

Elaine Lewis

Always pleasant. I shop at GIA at least twice a week Fruits and vegetables very expensive compared to other places, especially fruit stores

Ingrid Krobath

I have been shopping at this location for over 25 years, The service is terrible. The employees are rude and untrained in customer service, and the owner Lipari has blinders on. 2 weeks ago I came to shop at this location on cote st Luc road, and as I had received a delivery from them I just needed to pick up a few more things. I waited in line and went toward the smaller carts and a young tall man told me I had to take the big one. As those were clean. When I explained that I just needed a few items, and can you please clean clean the handle of the smaller part. He made it an issue and went to complain to a Philipino girl, and she too told me I had to take the bigger cart. I had enough so I took the spray, and cleaned it myself. I felt like it was a power struggle Crazy.

Anthia English

I like shopping there always clean store good service and friendly staffs.

Brian Gill

Great staff, on-site butcher and fishmonger and you’ve gotta love the car order service.

Rose Budd

Very good.

Sebastian Nordengen

Great service but the store needs to be renovated

Carlitos Santiago

My friend went to buy groceries this past Saturday August 14th an off duty employee named Tina scolded my friend for tossing the shopping cart and called him a LOSER! I recorded this on my cellphone and it will be going up on YouTube! This is the worse store as employees are rude and arrogant! Supposedly that employee lied about her name and some person there claimed to be the manager was not even a manager! Deceiving place 2 go too!

Lew. Bon.

The absolute best Bar B Q chickens.

Shirley Ryan

The service was very good.

Mark Pepe

Great variety of foods from around the world , fruits and vegetables really nice and fresh, big store in the Cote st luc shopping Center.... just a bit pricey. But that's par for the course today

Yoram Danan

Customer service is the worstpossible. They resist collecting bottles as mandated by la under all kind of fake pretexts . This inacceptable amd illegal.

elle

I used to find the produce department at this store quite good but not any more... especially the organic produce... much of it old and withered. Also, don't buy any hunks of cheese in the deli section which are marked "Special" because I've done that twice and both times the cheese tasted like an old refrigerator... blech! Never again.

Harvey Finkelstein

Regular (high) IGA prices, especially on produce. Staff (and managers) are both incompetent AND rude. Whenever I have the option, I go out of my way and shop at another store.

Khashayar Mahvelati

Staff unable to take care of an item with no price , asking customer to wait 15 mins for manager to finish his break .

linda fogarty

IGA Cote St Luc. Always good service and courteous staff. Manager really polite and friendly.

Francis Lemieux

Very clean and nice staff.

Val Alex

Very busy at all times fast service cleaned and friendly environment nothing is missing at IGA what you can't find just simply asked a smiling face is always near to assist you

rosalind laveman

No comment.

Alper Bac

Standard IGA with ready-to eat food and lots of choice; and is usually well stocked. Plent of parking available with child friendly shopping carts. Prices are not regular unless there is a discount.

Anna Abbandonato

Every beer I wanted was out of stock.

Great place to do grocery

Rosd Langleben

Good to shop around and to compare the food products and prices. Look for savings coupons in the iga store. Also good to check out the expire date on dairy and meat products

Dudie Silberman

Good store, nice selection and a kosher meat department. The parking lot can be a bit difficult to get in and out of at time.

Ahmed Alfotihi

My every day store ???? love to shop there.

Ophelia John

The blonde girl in the cheese section was extremely rude and loud! She didn’t even wash her hands

Sean Mccluskey

IGA is a good place to do your groceries, a little pricey, but I'm hooked on air miles. They also have good deals every once in a while.
