Kiev Deli of Sarasota 4031 Cattlemen Road, Sarasota, FL 34233

"While in the store I was approached by a female with two boys . They handed me a note saying “ my husband just died , and we’re hungry please buy us food” I felt very uncomfortable, but said ok you can get few cheat things . While cashier ( male ) was scanning my items I made a comment “ I guess they want me to buy their food” hoping he would jump in and ask them to leave instead of harassing and begging for food/ money at the store . Instead the cashier proceeded to help them pick out very expensive salami ($20) then continued to take other items from their hands ….. I spent $22 on my items and $54 on theirs ! As a store owner/ worker one would think to jump in and help.. I will never be back there . Do not go there . You are not safe there . Also as I was leaving the boys stayed in the store while lady went out to her car…. So this could be a store scam of some kind ? Very sketchy ."

"European origin, imported food. Excellent choice of Polish and Russian products. Sweets, groceries, cold meats, sausages, canned food, cheeses, beer and wine. Friendly owners. Moderate prices. Plenty of parking."

"Extremely overpriced, products are often spoiled, especially drinks and canned goods. The store is dark, and unkempt. Service is sloppy, disrespectful. The owner (middle-aged lady) can easily sass, in response to simple questions about quality or shelf life. It's funny that the store is called "Kiev" but sells a lot of russian products. I just don't go there anymore, and advise to stay away."

"Went to the store on October 25,2023 Got this herring Matjas Expiration date 7/15/2023 How can you sell expired food ? People can get food poisoning"

"Very nice grocery store! It has huge selection of all types of European foods. Highly recommend this place."
