The Good Stuff
Spice selection
The spice range is a major draw, with customers saying they can find the varieties they need for Indian cooking.
Regional items
The shop is useful for regional Indian groceries, with Maharashtrian and Gujarati products specifically mentioned.
Hard-to-find goods
Some shoppers find products here that are difficult to locate in other supermarkets.
Clear aisles
One reviewer found this branch less obstructed than other branches, without stools and merchandisers blocking multiple aisles.
Tips for a Better Visit
Shop in person. For urgent groceries, buy in store rather than relying on delivery; one repeat customer said orders were effectively forgotten.
Avoid crowds. If you prefer more room, try a quieter time: reviews describe the shop as crowded and cramped.
Compare prices. Check a few prices against nearby supermarkets, as several shoppers say some Indian items cost more here.
Ask for regions. If you cook regional Indian food, ask specifically for Maharashtrian or Gujarati products; both are mentioned as part of the range.

The Bottom Line
Adil Supermarket in Al Raffa is a practical stop for Indian groceries, particularly if your shopping list includes spices, regional staples or imported brands. Reviews mention rice, pulses, oils, flour, snacks and household products, with one shopper describing it as a place for the groceries and daily essentials they need. The spice selection is a standout: customers say they can find nearly any Indian spice here.
The branch is smaller than a full-size Adil shop, but that does not mean the range is narrow. Maharashtrian and Gujarati items are specifically mentioned, as are fresh paneer, ghee, Haldiram foods and coffee powder. It is also useful for ingredients that can be difficult to find elsewhere, making it a convenient in-person browse when a standard supermarket comes up short.
Prices are the main trade-off. Several reviewers describe some Indian and imported products as expensive, although another found the prices reasonable. The branch provides home delivery, but delivery feedback is consistently cautious: customers report long waits, including for nearby orders, and one says the same problem happened repeatedly.
For time-sensitive shopping, visiting in person is the safer choice. The shop has also been described as crowded, so a quieter visit may be more comfortable.
