MOM’s Organic Market

Awesome! I love shopping here:)) Their blueberry coconut muffin is delicious! There are some chairs and a table between the entrance and the take out kitchen. You can have a pretty healthy meal there!
Organic Selection: Pretty good.
Price: Pricier. They show a list which supermarkets have cheap organic products. Is it true?!
Sample: Coffee, tea, bread, cheese, snack, etc…
Customer service: Great and friendly.
Parking lot: Free garage parking.
Location: Gooood! Lulu lemon, last call, butcher, seafood shop, target, anthropology, cafes, organic tea shop, … Fantastic area!

I really like this market. Virtually everything there is organic. They have a good healthy quick lunch you can pick up that is tasty and probably healthier than most anything you could get out for lunch. They sell high quality products for almost anything you could want. They have a lot of sales on their meat, which makes it fairly reasonable and probably better priced than any organic meat I’ve seen in stores. They have pretty good sales, too, and if you look through their coupon book, you can find some nice deals. One of my favorite products there is their coconut water in a bottle. It has to be the best tasting coconut water I’ve ever had and as close to fresh as I can get.
I know I’m talking to a limited audience here, but they also take compost. I cook a lot and have lots of fruit and veggie scraps and tea and coffee grounds and eggshells, so I feel great about being able to take it up there and let it my food scraps fertilize the earth.

It is so nice to have a store where 100% of the products are organic. In an area that already has Wholefoods, Weagmans, ALDI and even Giant (with an organic section), MOM’s Organic Market still stands out as one of the best!
While we don’t buy meats from MOM’s (Wholefoods tends to have a better grass fed section) or Dairy (RAW milk/​cheese), it is a great place to get practically everything else. The pricing varies with some items cheaper and some more expensive than competing organic places, but the location is very convenient in Mosaic and the Raw bar is a very nice feature.
The drinks or bowls you can get are all fabulous and made fresh. The workers are extremely friendly throughout the store and MOM’s is actually one of the few places where you can get organic corn when it’s in season!
I highly recommend giving the store a try, just to peruse it’s aisles and grab a bite/​drink from the Raw bar. You won’t be disappointed!

Ample garage parking just across the tiny street.
Expensive.
Great selection of items you can’t find elsewhere. ie) organic blueberry syrup
Clean and well-​staffed.

This MOM’s is conveniently located in the Mosaic District. Plenty of free parking in the garage right across the street from the front entrance. I do some shopping here every once in a while to pick up a few things, although I can’t get my weekly produce here. The selection is very small and sometimes the items they do have don’t look good at all. Most recently the beets and the radishes looked horrible. On a positive note, the dairy section offers the lowest prices on milk, creamer, and yogurt in comparison to Whole Foods. Customer service is good and they always offer to carry your bags to your car for you.

This store is clean, neat, organized and a good size. The staff are also friendly and quick to help you. The Naked Lunch bar inside is still open and the juices and salads/​bowls are very good, especially the Pink Lady juice.

This place is awesome. If there’s ever a health food or gourmet product that I can’t find at trader joes or whole foods then this place for sure has it. Honestly — and this for sure speaks to my lack of hipness– most of the things in this store I’ve never heard of.
They also have raw and fresh pressed juices at super reasonable prices that are delicious and for sure necessary during the holidays when we’ve all been indulging too much (or anytime were coming here post teds bulletin or another of the amazing and heavy foods available at mosaic).
The only big downside to this place are the prices. They’re high. I wouldn’t say they’re higher (by much) than other places for the same products, but they are high. I guess you get what you pay for?

Tl: dr; I wish I could like this place, but there’s just something about it (prices, atmosphere) that’s a little off
The longer version:
Really, I’d love to be a fan of this Mom’s location (which I’m regarding as a proxy for the greater Mom’s brand, fair or not), but there is really something that just seems… off about it.
I mean, it offers local, organic and truly clean groceries AND a pretty righteous bulk good section. What’s not to love for a yuppie foodie wannabe like me?
Still — and I don’t think it’s all in the higher than normal prices — I can’t escape a feeling that I’m not getting an adequate amount of value for the cash spent on the groceries. Even though I’m buying ingredients I know are top notch and are better than the norm for me, it feels almost disingenuous.
It could be the cold, warehouse-​y look and feel of a place trying to charge top dollar. It could be the extra frill of having my groceries carried to my car. which I’ve never really capitalized on and continuously wonder if that cost is passed through to me anyways.
I don’t really know, but it does feel like a shame. I’ll probably shop here from time to time still, but it will presumably be without the fuzzy feeling

I’ve come to love this store, not only for the products but the staff as well. I am in this mall once a month, so I always stop in to pick up a few things that I can’t find in other stores.
Since changing to a Paleo eating style, I find more items at Mom’s that I can eat. Their prices are very comparable to Wegmans, and sometimes beat their prices on certain items.
I still need to eat there. That’s on my list!

I like this store. Fresh organic produce, lots of vegitarian/​vegan/​non-​gmo foods. Locally sourced meat and produce is a plus (especially now that Congress repealed the country-​of-​origin labels on meat). Other than that this store delivers excellent variety of safe, quality products. Staff is friendly, and it seems they are treated well. Go organic and drive by Whole Foods (faux organic).

I love this place!!! The juice bar is fantastic. Great healthy, organic food options. Service is great too. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

Naked Lunch?! for Lunch, DONT DO IT!
I went in there today roughly around 11:50am trying to get a steam bowl, there was no line which was shocking specially around lunch time. One of the ladies there (i didn’t get her name, but there was 2 of them) she started making my bowls (2), when we were almost finished it turns out they ran out of Sesame Oil (since the night before), I asked her if she could bring one off the shelf for me and charge me for the bottle itself and put it in my bowl (money isn’t the issue). She started to describe the bottle for me and i told her, i was on my lunch break and she knew i was there for too long already and she just looked at me blank and i told her to just forget about the bowls and i would come back later, i went out side and called a manager and he asked me to come back inside and he would resolve this, i must admit i really appreciate the manager’s (Edward) immediate assistant and understanding. UNFORTUNATELY!!! The problem wasn’t resolved right away, No one could find/​identify the correct bottle of sesame oil, FINALLY ONEC they found it minutes later … I asked the lady (the other lady) in naked lunch that it was my bottle and if she could drench my bowl with heavy sesame oil and i don’t know if she was trying to be slick, or funny but she was holding back on the sesame oil (maybe, because she thought it was theres, and not MINE, which it was going to be purchased by me, for me). The manager came and apologized and said «u don’t have to purchased that» i was not sure if he meant my bowls? or the bottle? BUT ME, being an American, i will purchase my food, like i mention before, i don’t have a problem with payment.etc. it’s the costumer service i was having a problem with. WHEN I GOT HOME, i saw that my bowls were not drenched with sesame oil, they were SO dry, i cannot imagine eating this and not messing up my digestive system. From my understandings, SCOTT the founder of MOM’s Organic Market is a man who cares deeply for his company and communication with his costumers (his number is on ALL THE BAGS, direct contact) … This was by far the most disappointing visit to MOMs, as you could already tell, Im NOT going to eat my bowls, and probably NOT going to visit this place anytime soon. How disappointing this American grocery store, «Organic — friendly» .but not «Costumer Friendly».

Best grocery store in the DMV hands down! Okay— So it doesn’t even compare to Rainbow Co-​Op in San Fran or Mother’s in So cal— But it’s incredible for the area.
All of the produce is organic, so it eliminates the need to pay super close attention to what you’re putting in the cart. This sets MOM’s apart from other high-​end markets that stock conventional and organic produce.
The produce is generally of a really good quality. The produce staff does a great job of weeding out the bruised products, etc.
Love their small selection of organic plants. I stock up on herb and veggie plants each spring.
Parking is usually convenient. On busy days you have to go up a few levels in the structure. But this is small potatoes compared to the benefit of getting to shop at such a wonderful store.
Their selection of vegan products is superb! I appreciate the variety and attention to stocking quality products (more whole soy products and fewer super-​processed soy-​protein-​isolate-​heavy foods than you find at other stores).
Folks who work here are generally really nice. There are some duds. But, for the most part, the employees are awesome… They get to know regulars and are always eager to help.

In trying to eat healthier with organic foods and non-​processed food, I discovered this amazing grocery store. I have visited several niche health stores that carry the essentials, but MOM’s is like one of those expanded so I could theoretically do all my grocery shopping here!
MOM’s is great for vegan, vegetarian, raw customers. Most products are very clearly labeled and organized such that I was able to distinguish the dairy-​free dairy from the dairy dairy lolol. And yes, they have enough dairy-​free dairy products to have their own specific section! I feel like I could spend hours in this store just poring through all the products that I basically had no idea existed.
I think MOM’s makes healthy eating very doable and for that, this is a very happy place for me! Not to mention, the prices are fair. The customer service is really great and I look forward to returning to try their café and juice bar.

Best MOMs yet! Large, bright, well stocked and a great optioned food bar. Parking, but seemed hard at evenings but mid day easy.
Bumps Arlandria one that I have been loyal too since day one that overshadowed the original and other before coming to VA.

This was my first time visiting MOM’s at the Mosaic. The grocery store itself is very cute and quaint, with wooden shelves and a modest selection of produce, bulk items, raw/​sustainable food, dairy, frozen foods, wellness items (homeopathic, etc.), and lotions/​fragrances. I came here specifically to look for their line of organic Creamline milk, which supposedly received high ratings in terms of taste and quality. They didn’t have quart or half-​gallons, but only gallon sizes available. However, I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious the milk was, as it was thick, creamy, had a slight zippity tang to it, and lovely with your choice of breakfast cereal or to wash down a dessert treat. There’s a parking deck attached for convenience, but also shared with those who are checking out the other parts of the complex.

I love this place. There’s almost nothing I don’t like about it. In fact, the only «complaints» I have are (1) once, the avocado in my moler bowl want mixed in by the new guy like my other favorite person at the Naked Lunch counter does it and (2) the manager wouldn’t agree to providing a sale incentive because I purchased the item a day before the incentive program started and she also wouldn’t sell the incentive item to me separately. That last one was pretty annoying, but really both are inconsequential.
Some people complain about the prices. When it comes to giving a s**t about the environment though, I say put your money where your mouth is. If you want aisles of products that you can feel good about, this is your place. They’re especially great for cosmetics, bath/​body care, kitchen/​lunch storage, and homeopathic items. And, great beer selection and non-​meat proteins. And yogurt. Pretty much everything is great (even the space itself).
The smell of spices and yummy food when you walk in is best. I’m a fan of having a few great choices rather than a hundred varying options; naturally, I love MOM’s. Plus, the Fake’n Bacon is my favorite food now.
If you haven’t already gone, why are you waiting? :)

I like this place for what they stand for but they’re more expensive than whole foods and have less of a selection and for that I have to deduct a star.
Their steam bar is really tasty for lunch, though I didn’t feel that great afterwards.

Great selection, great pricing AND it’s all organic? Yeah, I’m sold.
Wait, you’re going to help me take my groceries to the car in the pouring rain without me even asking for help? Whoa, thanks! Yeah, I’ll be back.
What a wonderful addition to the Mosaic district!
My husband and I try to eat clean when we cook, so it’s refreshing to not have to scrutinize the labels on every product trying to make sure that what I am buying isn’t laced with all sorts of weird things. Mom’s had everything on my grocery list and more, so I am very happy with the available amount of available products. I was also really impressed with the selection of weigh and bag it yourself dry goods.
They also have a fresh food area called «Naked Lunch» that I can’t wait to try.
What a great place!

Make sure you get a Beet Burger and the Naked Lunch counter!

To put it lightly, my first trip to Mom’s was a little bit shocking. I walked in and was immediately put off by how little fresh meat and produce they carried. Where was my itty bitty pineapples and star fruit selection? My dad escaped a communist country so I could have access to a variety of produce at my finger tips.
But then I thought about it some more and realized that it was ME who had the problem. I am so used to conventional grocery stores whose shelves are overflowing with genetically modified fruit and veggies that are available anytime of the year, as well as mass-​produced meat pumped with hormones and antibiotics.
Mom’s is different. All of their food is 100% certifiable organic and they have a focus on selling products that are good for the environment AND you. On my last trip to Mom’s I picked up a package of organic vegetable based vitamins, a new water filter that is so sturdy I have given up bottled water forever, a few food storage containers that are made out of recycled materials, coconut milk yogurt and Paraben/​SLS-​Free toothpaste. All of these things are items that I would not be able to find at your regular, run-​of-​the-​mill grocery store.
Mom’s is slightly more expensive than the average food market but the prices are competitive when compared to other specialty markets.
I would like to come back and try their food bar which featured Kombucha on tap, raw juices, and a bunch of vegetarian food options.
Happy and healthy eating my friends!
