There's a New York phenomenon where you'll find wine and liquor stores on every corner. I'm from Louisiana, and it still shocks me. Anyway, Westside is one of my favorites...check it out!

Not my favorite grocery store, nor the closest, but definitely the best option if you're traveling on foot. It's clean with a good selection.
