“Just had a really positive experience at this Aldi. It was midday on a Saturday, so of course the place was packed. I figured it would take forever to get out of there. Lines were backing up and the register I was at wasn't ringing up any produce so we had to pay for that separately while people behind us grumbled. However, Braydon, an Aldi associate quickly jumped in and bounced from line to line with a smile and an apology and rang us up one after another. All the while, he was also answering questions and helping people get through the many self checkout lanes. Not once did he look stressed. He was polite, professional and made everything go smoothly. Will definitely be coming back here!”

“I was there picking up donations for the food pantry today with Jim, one of the employees @ Northwest Compass. The staff there were very friendly and helpful showing us what was to be donated. A big thanks to Aldi's for their contributions during this time of recession.”

“Always busy, and have everything I need, once in awhile they do run out of products, but everyday I think a truck comes in the morning, so morning shopping is more reliable, to have your products, but it has only happened a hand full of times.A little slow at the cash register, lines can be long, at other Aldi's they have self serve, thos is so convenient. I hope they change this place to have both.”

“I really appreciate the fact that I can get everything I need here and be out within a few minutes. Prices are great and the employees are always very friendly.”

“Surprised by their selection! FOUND some good deals! Only1 cashier, many people in line,felt bad for her. Let people go in front of me who were holding their groceries.”

“Love this location took me one hour to get here on bus from Skokie but was completely worth it. Only went for the food court on the second floor! I orders myself spicy pork, that was delicious got it with great side of fish cakes and kimchi. I did not know what the third side was but it was ok. The place is big and the staff was great! Also will not hurt your wallet like some Chicago location that charger like 20 dollars plus for spicy pork.”

“Japji Wholesale supplies superior quality fresh produce and groceries at competitive rates. Their ability to source and deliver specialty goods and Indian products is unmatched.”

“For many years, Valli was our go-to-market for food. The variety of products carried is outstanding. They have an enormous selection of fresh fruits and vegetables. Since they get people of multiple ethnicities, they have a very good selection of cultural foods. And, up until a few years ago, their prices were much lower than other stores.When they raised their prices several years ago, we virtually stopped going to Valli on all but a few occasions. This time, we needed a variety of Latin/Mexican foods, so this was our first choice.First, their fresh salsas, guacamole, pico de gallo, and other freshly made items are second to none. They still have the widest variety and quality of fresh fruits and vegetables of other markets I go to. Their milk and dairy products and frozen foods are priced more than most other markets. They still have a great selection of cold cuts, which are a much better value than other deli counters. They have a good selection of fresh meat (and some seafood), including taco meat and fajitas to buy and cook at home. I have never tried their bakery, but everything looks delicious. And they among the the largest selection of fresh-frozen fish in our area.If you need it, they have it. Still, with some of their pricing matching or even higher than the supermarket chains, we limit our trips to Valli when we need something we know we can get at a specialty market or only there. And many of the Mexican and Asian grocers may carry a much smaller selection but have better prices. Still, there is something about Valli - maybe having everything in one place, the friendly and helpful employees, or something else. Valli still holds a place in my heart.”

“This store is now our preferred Aldi location. The Palatine Aldi location is too crowded. Nobody wears a mask and there's only one cashier and a ton of self check lanes all being run by that one cashier. The palatine location is severely understaffed. Spoiled vegetables were left on the shelf. At this location it's a day and night difference. This Aldi has staff members floating around the shelves monitoring products and assisting people. The other one did not. People also seem to wear masks at higher frequency in this location. There are no self checkout lanes which is a slight let down as having one or two machines would be nice. The store is for the most part clean and the lighting inside is bright enough to see all products. There are no dim spots and the ceiling is fully finished instead of being unfinished warehouse beam. There was only cashier but she was ringing customers extremely fast showing that she really knew her stuff and knew how to run a register in turbo mode. She also maintained a personable demeanor despite running everything at super high speed. Very happy with this Aldi compared to the other Aldi!”

“Great selection of international foods. They have a Bakery, delicatessen, sushi and fresh meats. A huge selection of fruits and vegetables. Plenty of parking with handicaped as well. The only down side is the lack of general staples . But other then that they are great.”

“I really like Aldi these days and appreciate the prices and the better choices as compared to the past such as organic produce and dairy. Also I like the smallness of these stores as it allows me to grab and go without a hitch as long as there is no line at the cashier.”

“Nice store, friendly employees and clean facility. Several items I was looking for were out of stock, so that was a little disappointing. Still, a good store to shop at with prices mostly well below their competitors.”

“I think this location used to be a Best Buy but that's gone now and ALDI is in its place. It is a very formulaic ALDI that is laid out and stocked the same as every other I've seen in 2023 whether Mount Pleasant South Carolina or Fort Myers Florida. Aisles of boked and canned goods, an aisle of produce items, coolers along the back with some fresh and deli foods, more along the side with butchery including chicken, beef and fish. Frozen aisle with bunkers of heat-and-eat pizzas and whatnot. Down the middle, cleaning and household. And the ever present "Aisle of Awesomeness" full of random things that might be seasonal and might not. You just never know what you're going to find there! Remember to bring your quarter to borrow a cart and your reusable shopping bags! [Review 20628 overall - 175 in Illinois - 1609 of 2023.]”

“Tulsi Grocers is a great place to get the ingredients for my Biryani dish. The store is small, yet it is well organized, making it the ideal spot for convenient and efficient ingredient hunting.”

“I like this store. It's rather different than other grocery stores in a good way. They don't have a large variety of each type items. What they do have is of good quality and well priced. The downside to this is if they run out of an item such as their store brand coffee cream, your out of luck. Their workers are very friendly and always hard at work. Seems Aldi treats their employees good. I've see the same employees working there for a long time. This place is clean and well organized. Many items are seasonal so at times your forced to shop else where to complete your shopping for items such as almond extract, and ice-cream cones. I scratched my head when they told me they didn't have tarter sauce because it was was seasonal.”

“Aldi has really changed. It's been a while since I stepped into an Aldi store. I decided to shop at the Schiller Park location. It feels like a high end store. A lot of fresh fruit, vegetables and meat. Great selection. I'll definitely be back.”

“I had not been to an Aldi store in many years. During this visit I saw upgraded shopper experience.nnive selection of produce cheese and wine. The was helpful and I got my quarter back when I returned my shopping cart”

“I went last year and loved it ! Brought my daughter and niece back and loved it once again . Only complaint I have is I bought two pumpkin decorating kits and then moved into the following room with all the little treats that are in containers & when I got to the register the cashier told me I didn’t pay for the decorating kits which I did. I told her to ring them up again because honestly I just wanted to leave on how uncomfortable she made me feel . She literally made me feel like I was stealing. Communication needs to be better with all cashiers on what they can and cannot ring up . Idk why they put the kits right next to the food area that makes anybody confused including their WORKERS ?”
