Longo's Maple Leaf Square

Good selection, well stocked. Lots of longos brand options. Good bakery / fresh food sections. Very expensive compared to most grocery stores. Even some sales worse than regular price. + Theres a starbucks inside and PATH entrance

Love the selection at this store, but this review is primarily for the floral dept. I needed make 10 centrepieces for a work event and the employee went beyond. She showed me which flowers would go with each other and then even showed me how I could arrange them. I received so many compliments about the flowers at the event and it was all thanks to the employee here.

I still cant believe what I ran into at this store yesterday. Longos has a good selection of products and decent quality, but probably some of the worst staff ever. The Asian lady with brown permed hair (Korean, Im guessing) was our cashier. Throughout the entire checkout process, she did not say a SINGLE word. When it was time to pay, she flicked her head towards the card reader to tell us to insert the card. She also gave us cold stares the whole time like there was something wrong with us. The whole thing was just extremely uncomfortable. Even then, I didnt think much about it, until I saw her smiling and chitchatting with a Hispanic customer at the checkout and asking her if she had a store card. Honestly, that was already enough to make me feel upset, but who knew that my second checkout experience would be worse. The second cashiers name was Yihua. He heard me speak Chinese to the people I was with, and asked if I was speaking Chinese. I said yes, and after that his demeanor completely changed. He started treating us coldly, and when we asked him questions in Chinese he would stare at us for a long second, and then nod, only replying one or two words. Im confused as to why he specifically asked if we spoke Chinese if he didnt want to speak to us. He also kept giving us these looks, similar to that Asian lady. This coming from him is worse, because hes also Chinese! I dont like calling people racist, but the cashiers at Longos were as close as its ever gotten in my 10 years of being in the US and Canada. I wont be back for sure, but I do strongly hope that something will be done about this to prevent other Chinese people from getting their day ruined at Longos.
