“I love shopping at harvesTime! It is the perfect sized grocery store -- you can be in a and out with what you need fairly quickly. I especially appreciate their freshly baked European style breads and fresh pastries. We typically pick up a spinach spanakopita when we stop in! They also have some unique local items sprinkled throughout the store. Meat from local farms, micro greens, tea blends, chili oil to name a couple. This fits with their ethos as a local independent grocery store.”
“Always busy, affordable prices, the staff I asked was very helpful, I don't know why some people give rating when they had bad experience but not with good experience !!.”
“Genuinely the closest thing this neighborhood has to community. Everyone is super nice and friendly! Treat me like family.
PLEASEEEE owners if you’re reading, the final cherry on top for this place would be selling subs/sandwiches like a bodega. Or some sort of grab and go food.”
“I walked in early for the Sunday crowd and was greeted by the warm smiles of the vendors who already had their fresh heirloom tomatoes and fragrant basil on display. The new crepe stand had a seasonal apple‑cinnamon option that blew my mind, and the live acoustic guitarist added just the right amount of background music. I even snagged a jar of homemade honey and a fresh loaf of sourdough—value and quality really hit the mark.”
“I've been coming to this location for 10+ years. The service is always exceptional, from the owner himself, to the employees.
Groceries are always well stocked and easy to find. And my favorite is the fresh baked French bread. This is one of my favorite stores in the neighborhood.”
“I love their Jewish salad and the eggplant that is already made in the little containers. The only thing that upsets me... The salads only last up to 2 days then it starts smelling sour.... weird.”
“I said I would go home and leave a positive review today based upon the interaction I saw between an irate customer and the ALDI associate and here it is.
The customer was an older women with little joy left of her life aside from complaining to the person ringing her up about how bad the store is and how she hates shopping at ALDI and goes on about how other local stores are problematic.
The ALDI employee used all grace and smiles to attempt to disarm her but in the end the only thing that brought it to an end was the conclusion of her transaction. Kudos to the ALDI employee for being as cool as he could be throughout the interaction. It was a model of how to deal with a bratty customer.
Additionally I always find the store to be clean, well stocked, and other employees cheery and professional. A joy to shop here.”
“We are so impressed with the quality of every item we've bought here, including meats, produce, breads, and heat and serve meals. Every week we discover a new favorite, and the store is very clean and well-organized. I also remember that they actively support local food pantries. Well worth shopping here!”
“HUGE line when I first got there all the way down an aisle, the guys were professional about it, got a other register open and within like 5-7min got those lines down to one or two customers each. By the time I checked out it was quick and easy, and I had a lot of groceries. I use this location every week.”
“Having shopped at Korean markets coast to coast, Jersey to SF and Seattle, this is one of the best in North America in terms cleanliness, quality of items, and freshness of prepared foods. Chicagoland consumers are blessed to have such a choice. Try the Korean dumplings on the second floor…it’s expensive but you won’t be disappointed!”
“Kind staff, diverse selection of foods, reasonable prices, and they have a good amount of gluten free items considering the space they have. I love living within walking distance of this place. They have everything I need.”
“Absolutely refreshing! On a hot summer day, this fruit cart was the perfect stop. I had a mixed fruit cup with chile sauce—fresh, juicy, and full of flavor. It hit the spot!
They also offer fresh lemonade, coconut water, and orange juice. I went with the chilled lemonade, and it was to die for—perfectly tangy, sweet, and super refreshing.
Highly recommend if you’re looking for a fresh and healthy treat in the heat!”
“I bin taking my mom there for years and my self and will come again and again. My daughter comes from Florida to get her adobo and sazon lol ????❤️”

“It's clean and has a good selection of foods. The prices are good! The fruit I bought was really good. I bought some packaged meals with noodles that barely had any meat, but the other items were good.”
“Great place for import foods from Eastern Europe Romania, Ukraine, Russia, Bulgaria & Georgia. Love the Baltic countries sprats and herrings.Love the delicious Georgian eggplant in a large glass jar I mix them with my pasta dishes Fab taste and lower sodium than others which is vital for diabetics ! I usually get four to five jars at a time.Good cheese and deli meats selection.Also a very large fruit and vegetable selection.Jorge, is a big help on out of stock items and other things.”
“Nice seasonal neighborhood market. Most of the vendors you can find at other Chicago-area markets on other days, so there isn't anything necessarily unique about this market. However, the location is nice with a dedicated area that works well in most weather, including a bandstand where musicians are playing on most days.”
“This market is one of the best.I've ever seen in my life.Not only in chicago or illinois, but throughout the whole nation, I really come here to buy everything uc is fresh”

“Aldi's is just great! It always is! They always have what I want! And they are always fully stocked! Besides the long lines, Aldi's is a GREAT place to do all your grocery shopping! ??”
“Mad props to the dude running the checkouts just now for hustling me through extra fast, thus giving me just barely enough time to load up and return my cart before a torrential downpour started. Incredibly considerate! Also the store is clean and easy to navigate and well-stocked.”
“I needed help and before I can ask an employee name “Taty” I believe is her name came and ask if I needed help. She took me to what I was searching for with no problem. Beautiful smile and very delightful. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“This is hands down one of the best places to shop for groceries. The selection is excellent, the prices are competitive, and the quality of the products is consistently outstanding. It's a store I can always count on for fresh, reliable ingredients.
The staff are another reason I keep coming back. They're knowledgeable, friendly, and always willing to help with recommendations or answer questions. Great service, excellent value, and high-quality products make this an easy place to recommend.”
“Such an amazing store and I feel so lucky to live near it. I was surprised how many different products were available and the fruit, veggie and meat selection. The store is decently priced and so convenient. Every employee is kind. From behind the meat counter to the registers.”
“A bit pricier than your larger grocery stores, but very convenient! This place has been a huge help when I've forgotten an ingredient or two for dinner and need to run and get them.”
“When it comes to ALDI, I'd say this is a typical location. Has the basic needs, minus additional frills. Self checkout is usually quick, but it is for card/ebt payment only. Lines are average to long but move quickly (they take cash payments).Cons: They seem to often be out of basic staples.Pros: Quick. Convenient. Lower prices than many other supermarkets.Overall: Go for the basics, leave with the finds. Would recommend.”
“Great place to save mone6 when you need to do your house groceries, awesome prices the selection is also good sevice was great lines we're quick in and out atmosphere was good.
Produce was good good selection over all good. Cashier's were fast in and out!”
“The store was very well stocked. Clean and organized. Only annoying thing I asked the guy working about a product and his reply was this is Aldi we get stuff sometimes and other times we don't. You never know 😳”
