Desi Needs

Made to order samosas are must from here ! Overall, good selection of entries (different each day) that guarantees freshness

I have known this store in gurnee for more than a decade. Now, they recently opened a branch in Vernon Hills. Great place for indian groceries. The store owner, Moshin, is a great guy and never hesitates to help customers to best to his capability. They always have items in stock and maintain all desi needs.

Today I went to my to-go grocery place and noticed that it was no more the old same. There was a new hoarding -Desi Needs!!!I am not totally sure if its a relaunch or an entirely new store but some one need to let people know that this has changed.This has been my to-go destination for all the indian masala grocery items. They sell all kinds of munching, freshly made snacks( samosa, tea), grocery items, fermentated batter, frozen vegetables etc etc. Basically if you need anything from vico turmeric to mustard oil, bhindi to schzuan sauce you can go here!!!The stuff is fresh and place is clean. The owner is courteous and staff is sweet. Way to go Desi needs

Awesome place and authentic Indian experience. We enjoyed a lunch there and they were super helpful with vegetarian, dairy free, and gluten free. We were also able to shop next door and grab some groceries that are on the ingredient lists for indian recipes that I cant find elsewhere (for example: curry leaves!). Great experience and extremely helpful and kind staff.

Clean, well ordered, well stocked. Great selection of spices, condiments, and snacks. Nice produce section, reasonably priced. Surprisingly diversified frozen food section as well. I had never seen gluten free chapati before. As I am gluten intolerant, it was a wonderful find! My new go to place for Indian spices and groceries.

The store is fine but the owner is typical a***. Giving 3 stars only because of the spanish family working and managing it most times.This guy seema like owner try to cheat. Last tome he tried to run 4 ice cream bars costing 1.99 each for 8.99 each.Today he sold rotten bread saying it was made yesterday.What an as*****

Today I went to the store and got $55 worth of items. One of the items Milton food jar was defective and I told them to refund me the money as I was still in the store and the old gentleman/ owner wouldn't do that. He told me we will adjust the amount when we come next time, why? I don't have the item with me as I returned it immediately and told him to process return. He is running a store but doesn't know how to process a return? This is ridiculous. The staff there is very nice but the owner, nope, very stubborn. I will not recommend this store. I will have to get my money back and hope it happens soon.

I went to this store recently & feel like I found a gem! The store is nicely stocked & has a variety of what I need between a Punjabi household to South Indian household - this is definitely a one stop shop! The goat meat is always fresh with fair pricing & delicious once cooked. Glad to have found this store!

Best indian grocery store in the area! Big shout out to George who mostly works in the butcher section but is always willing to help with everything with a happy demeanor. His williness to go an extra mile makes me come to this particular store. Highly recommend it!!!! :)

The Desi needs at gurnee is very disappointing. The restaurant section is bad. Quality as well as quality is very bad. The the portion are not worth the price
