Usha Indian Grocery 81 Lancaster Avenue, Malvern, PA 19355

"Vegan-friendly!!: I just came from visiting this store for the first time and was instantly greeted by the owner & co, guided to grab the item I’d come for (Kala namak) and then given freedom to explore. In my past trips to other small marts, I’ve been disappointed to see how dusty and unloved all the items usually are. NOT HERE! Every item looked brand new, well-lit, and the mart is pristine. What most impressed me was the owner gathering that I may be vegan went to check if he had other items I may enjoy. He offered suggestions without it feeling pushy, and we even chatted a bit about how sad we are that a neighboring vegan restaurant just closed. I will absolutely be back to continue supporting this wonderful store."

"Fantastic little grocery with an incredible amount of variety and stock. They've recently started carrying a lot of vegan options and clearly labeling them which is incredible. I highly recommend the vegan masala chai and any of the chiki. Great amount of spices and dal and the prices always seem way too cheap. Owner and staff are unbelievably kind. If they have fresh samosas out, get them or it'll be a long car ride home!"

"They have lots of organic options for dals and spices. Quite a selection. They are my go to place for fresh pumpkin (the savory kind with dark green skin and cut into family size portions) and they have fresh cilantro as well."

"I don’t typically write reviews like this, but I love supporting mom and pop shops and I had the most pleasant experience at Usha Food Market!! The store was very organized and it was easy to find the items I needed. The produce was fresh and the workers were very helpful in describing various ingredients I was unfamiliar with. Not to mention, the samosas were tasty and a delicious snack to grab on my way out. I will definitely be back!"

"I have been coming to this store for years and am always welcomed warmly by the owner. I love coming here, especially for their spices. One day I met the nephew, Sundar, also part owner, and he shared that he does cooking classes. This past weekend our cooking group hired Sundar to come to the home of one of my friends. We all love to cook and learned so much from him. His dishes were delicious and we learned to make some of our favorites that we can now make at home. It was a wonderful experience!"
