Bismillah Groceries INC

This emporium of Indian, middle eastern and eastern Mediterranean food and ingredients is a must for home cooks and flavor enthusiasts. You will get a great welcome from the family at work here, lots of wonderful ingredients and - oh yes - some of the best, fresh made curry around. Go!

Excellent Middle East food staff

It was my first time visiting Bismillah Groceries Inc. I came to buy some cake rusks for my 87-year-old mother. I found exactly what I wanted very quickly. The owner was so kind and helpful. We also had a great talk about what is happening in Asia - he was so knowledgeable! He even helped me carry my bags outside and courteously greeted my mother. I live in Orlando and was only visiting Sarasota. Sure wish I had a Bismillah where I am!

A treasure trove of spices, prepared foods, mixes - both Mediterranean and Indian. Not sure if the people who helped us today are the owners (they were so nice and knowledgable), so helpful! I cannot wait to go back to prepare myself for learning new cooking methods. Highest of recommendations!

I don't know what I would do with out this store in Sarasota. I find everything I need to make delicious Palestinians Desert and dishes. Its definitely not just an Indian store, they have many many middle eastern selections. I love there dried chick peas I made some of my best hummus with them, there olives are very tasty. If you never been I would defiantly make a trip for an awesome culinary experience. There prices are very reasonable. Hope they stick around for ever.

Nice grocery store, you can find great variety of Asian products especially from India, Pakistan and Turkey

Very friendly market with several spices, varieties of rice and other ingredients from India, and the Middle East.

Excellent place to find species and food from Middle Eastern countries as well as India and Bangladesh. The person that helped me was very knowledgeable of different condiments by country and suggested different options. She told me they also sell grass-fed chickens and other meats on Fridays.The variety and costs beats Whole Foods Markets. A real authentic place.
Glad we are expanding our cultural horizons in Sarasota!

Wonderful line of groceries, gifts, and essentials for mideastern hala cooking, the store is clean, laid out well allowing handicapped access. The couple that own the store are lovely, good people. Helpful, polite and friendly. Wonderful atmosphere with good prices! A must shop location!

Had a great selection. Family owned. They were so nice. I went in with a Indian recipe and they helped me find all the ingredients. The owner even called his wife and had her explain to me the authentic way to cook the item. It came out sooo much better than the internet directions/recipe. They will even order anything you need.

They have a wide selection of Turkish food products. Their dairy offerings are especially good. Many childhood favourite cookies are there too. Don't miss the frozen pastries in the corner.

Indian grocery store in Sarasota. Has everything you need, all masalas, chutneys, curries, etc. They also have a lot of instant Indian meals. They also have a lot of middle eastern and Mediterranean items. They get fresh meat in every Friday. They also cook homestyle Indian food for takeout if you want to taste Indian food that hasn't been anglicized and doesn't have all the extra cream and butter that restaurants typically add..

Finally, an Indian grocery in Sarasota! Good selection of spices, and other Indian staples. Very friendly owners, willing to order any items they don't have in stock.

great service! and delicious food. But ill make it clear this is a middle Easter kind of store, although its technically "asian" it does not have the Korean/Chinese/Japanese kind of food most of us associate with asian.

Love going in and getting a variety of Indian, African, or other middle eastern spices and products. Owner always happy to assist.

Very helpful and pleasant. Lots of ethnic groceries. The owners are very nice and always there. Lots of essential oils and products from overseas. Great great great!!
