West Portal Avenue former businesses

I am trying to remember the name of the grocery store/market on the west side of West Portal Avenue, the 300 block (near the former Woolworth Store). It had been there from the 1940s at least, closed in the 1970s or 80s. When you walked in, the meat and deli counter was on the left side. My mom always stopped at the meat counter first for a box of Homestead raviolis (remember those? in the flat white box with large red lettering.) and for sea food.
