“Nice selection of vegan goods and produce. I have occasionally gotten something less than quality in terms of vegetables.
Things to note is they do not take manufacture coupons, and can be a bit pricey for some every day items unfortunately.”
“Good selection of less-common meats and cuts (e.g. lamb shanks, duck, ground venison are things I've found there) at reasonable prices. It's a good middle ground between the grocery store and specialty butcher.”
“Go here now. Legit went in clueless… searching for the perfect steak taco recipe. They helped me with it all! Tenderized the meat, cut it perfectly up so it wasn’t a hassle later on, and they even had chopped up onion and cilantro packaged up. Icing on the cake (taco) was their fresh made salsa! . Thanks for the help! The tacos we made for dinner tonight were delicious!!”
“$12.99 for quite possibly the best corned beef sandwich in Chicago....YES PLEASE....my mouth is watering just describing the amazing quality and experience this Sammie has....Eat Local is a local Chicago food review channel on YouTube and these 2 guys, Sean Ely and Corey Wagner are right, this is an unexpected taste explosion....definitely a huge must visit recommendation.....enjoy PEEPS and also, everything on the menu is probably A1 TOP NOTCH as well”

“Amazing service grat customer service and their empanadas are absolutely tasty and the Picana meat out of this world delicias cashier is so friendly,keep up the good work”
““Authentic”-Kielbasa craving???
Look no further than Kurowski.
Never in all my years of shopping here
have I ever found an English-speaking-Polish-Foodie able to describe the differences of the +20 types of
Smoked-Sausages they make here
( & sell here as well).
It is a place that smells as good as it tastes.?
Their Hot Food bar offers a great Polish Lunch selection, as well as the refrigerated display case featuring my fav- a Carrot “Salad”/Slaw w/Raisins, as well as other pickled items and coleslaw.
Sadly, since The Pandemic they’ve stopped selling “bones” inna Blue-Plastic-Barrel.
The piggy bones were great to use for soups or stocks, & my Honduraino buddy literally drooled(& kissed me) over the “trotters”
I gifted him that were pulled-outta that
Blue Barrel.
The southern 1/2 of the stores sells all sorts of non-meat items from European Butter & Cheese to Dill Pickles inna barrel to
Gluten-Free-Breads made w/Sunflower Seeds!
“Pro-Tip”:: For your next picnic ( or cocktail gathering)- may I suggest getting
a few pairs of “Kabonosy” + also request a
2” thick slice (use Sign-Language-to-show-Thickness?) of their Smoked-Gouda Cheese ( pronounced-“How-dah”)>
and b4 your picnic cut into small cubes /slice the Kabonosy into lil bite-sizes> & toothpick-em-together! (Maybe go crazy& skewer a Gherkin on it too!)
(Insiders alert- on the top of
the Stainless counter, over by The scales are broken Kielbasa packaged and sold for
a steep discount)
A bit of Chicago Retail History, this address was formerly the home of “Animal Kingdom”
Pet-Shop.
Wanna Snake?
Wanna Lizard?
Wanna Ocelot?
Turtles-big and small?
Wanna goldfish ( to feed to the Turtle!?)
Even an occasional Capuccian Monkey ?
( think Organ Grinder)
All sorts of legit & questionable live animals used to be sold here
Kurowski Sausage is -
CHICAGO’s VERY OWN!”
“This is the magical type of butcher and market that is vanishing all over the country. Thankfully, Paulina continues to push ahead with the finest selection and the customer service to go with it.”
“Great place to get your favorite meats and not only. They have a nice variety of smoked meat, smoked sausage and even sweets. The owners always greet you with a smile on their face and it's always a pleasure to stop by. And BTW, they also deliver and ship cross country. I highly recommend Saravale Meat Market”
“The pastrami is to DIE for. We get the “house cut”. Warm it up in a pan at home but not too much. It melts in your mouth. We love pastrami and eat it and “rate it” everywhere we go and this is our favorite. I send it to my son out of state he misses it.”
“If you're looking for fresh meat butcher style try Peoria. Remember to wear a coat cuz it's definitely cold inside and you can have your food cut the way you like been going there for years love this place”
“I was worried when I read no cards but when I went they started accepting credit cards and debit cards. Food is fantastic and makes you want more. You want to eat like a king and save then come here.”
“The selection is very wide, and so far anything we have purchased has turned out to be good quality. The staff checks on you regularly with a smile, and it is spotlessly clean.”
“I love this groceries store definitely been a community staple for yearssssssss I don't have enough S to add im 45 Mario's was around when I was very young like 1985 Capital Hill Shit”

“The deli selections are amazing! You can get beef, chicken, to seafood! You also have a selection of seasonings, premade snacks or lunch, such as riceballs, fried chicken, or arroz con gandules!
They also have a bakery, selling baguettes, croissants, and more!”
“Great little market with many hidden gems like rosewater, orange blossom water, dates, and halva. A huge selection of tea and coffee, sweets, and spices. I will be doing more of my shopping here, this is a pastry chef's dream!”
“Love this place! The food and meats are always top quality, the staff are super friendly, and they’ve got a great selection of local products to pair with your meal or what you purchase from the deli. They also have farm fresh fruits and veggies.”
“Outstanding taste and quality. The ribs and pulled pork were tender and delicious, and the barbecue sauce (Grandma's secret recipe) tied everything together perfectly. Truly premium products worth recommending!”
“They have all kinds of Mears and most of the staff is very nice. I like their prices and I live the ground chicken. It's cold inside so where a coat or jacket I. the summer time. I've been shopping g here for years. They have really grown.”
“?My Friends From CTA & I Genuinely Miss Their Awesomely Great Bobak’s Grocery Store Which Was Located On Archer.
When I work for CTA Archer Garage, we go there for lunch even on our own non-working days Because ?They Had The Best Polish Food EVER (In Small Cafe/Restaurant Located Inside Grocery Store Too)! All their sausage and food items are always totally fresh and delicious!!!? ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”
“The best Irish corned beef in Chicago! Quality meats. Great value for catering big parties. My wife loves their Irish soda bread. Family-owned business, very friendly and welcoming. 5 stars.”
“I go to Adrian's for everything. They've got all the protein rich food I need to gain muscle and all the drinks and chips that make me remember my time in Mexico. Whether I'm preparing food for myself or for a party or just trying to win the lottery, Adrian's is where I go.”
“i purchased a toogoodtogo from this store and they gave me a bag full of inedible food that expired MONTHS ago (oldest item expired in july of 2022). the purpose of toogoodtogo is to stop good food from going to waste, not to turn a profit off of spoiled food that actually belongs in the trash. that's not the spirit of the app at all, and it's a real scummy thing to do.”
“Made a delivery here. I was sitting down the street and they came to get me to let me know they are ready. Explained where to park from the street to unload. Lumper fee $300 if you're not able to help unload. Super nice guy. Street parking is a little sketchy but told me where to park to finish a 10hr break where know body will mess with you.”
“(Translated by Google) These gentlemen do value the driver's time download in 10 minutes and very nice people, thank you guys for valuing our time(Original)Estos señores sí valoran el tiempo del conductor descarga en 10 minutos y gente muy agradable ,gracias muchachos por valorar nuestro tiempo”
