" There are few places in Buffalo like Al-Aqsa that offer such a large selection of authentic South Asian ingredients. The grocery section is unmatched, from snacks to spices. However, my dining experience could have been better – the service was slow and my biryani was not flavorful. The seating was also limited, making it hard to enjoy the meal. Even still, I think their grocery side is worth the trip! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to Al-Aqsa multiple times and I always look forward to their beef tehari. The spice blend used is incredible, truly reminiscent of home-cooked meals. The prices are competitive compared to other markets and the quality is generally great. However, the dining area could use some stricter cleaning protocols as I've seen it a bit messy during busy hours. Overall, I enjoy shopping here and will keep coming back for their groceries and hot meals. " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm a regular at Al-Aqsa, as it offers a great selection of Bangladeshi ingredients. However, I've had mixed experiences with their restaurant. I enjoyed their beef tehari once, which was spicy and tasty, but the last time, it was bland and not up to par. The grocery section is reliable, but the dining area needs some love in terms of cleanliness and customer attention. I might keep visiting for groceries but will be cautious about ordering food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Al-Aqsa's has a wide variety of Indian and Bangladeshi groceries which I absolutely love! The supermarket is always well-stocked with fresh produce, meat, and spices. I've tried several dishes from the restaurant section, and I was impressed by the taste and authenticity, especially the chicken biryani and samosas. Prices are quite reasonable too. However, I noticed that the restaurant area was a bit cramped and sometimes crowded, which can be overwhelming. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had my first visit at Al-Aqsa during a family trip to Buffalo and it was fantastic! The staff were friendly and provided quick service despite the crowd. I ordered their famous biryani, and it was well-spiced and not too oily. The space, while a bit cramped, feels vibrant with lots of people enjoying the food. I'll be recommending this place to friends back home for that authentic Bengali experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations from Al-Aqsa based on recommendations but my experience was rather disappointing. The biryani I ordered lacked flavor and was overcooked. The service was slow and I felt ignored. I raised my concerns but didn't see any effort to rectify the situation. It seems they may have short-staffed on weekends which might contribute to these issues. While I appreciate the range of spices and grocery items they offer, I hoped for better prepared food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Al-Aqsa on a recommendation, and while the grocery selection was good, my meal experience was lacking. The chicken tasted bland, and the naan was less than fresh. Service was also terribly slow, which was surprising given its popularity. I think if they could enhance the flavors and the service, I would reconsider visiting in the future. For now, I'm uncertain if I'd return. " (*Curated Review*)
