“Coming from Louisiana I have never been to an Aldi and I was soooo impressed! The store was so clean and stocked really well! The PRICES were INCREDIBLE!!!! I’m so sad we don’t have an Aldi near me! I love this store so much we went twice during our short stay in Waukegan for our daughter’s graduation from the Navy bootcamp. If we’re ever near an Aldi again I will definitely be going!”

“We avoided shopping at Lewis Fresh Market for quite a while, but once we finally gave it a try, it quickly became our favorite grocery store in the area. The quality of their chicken and lamb is outstanding—easily some of the best we've found, even compared to many well-known markets and specialty meat shops. While I haven't personally tried their other meat selections yet, based on the quality we've experienced so far, I'm confident they are excellent as well. Their produce has been equally impressive. We've purchased some of the sweetest strawberries and best-tasting mangoes we've had in a long time. Everything always looks fresh, well-stocked, and carefully maintained. What really stands out is the consistent quality throughout the store. The shopping experience is pleasant, the products are fresh, and it's clear that they take pride in what they offer. Lewis Fresh Market has exceeded our expectations, and it has become our go-to place for groceries. Highly recommended!”
“The grated parmesan cheese truffle, very deceptive advertisement. This product has high doses of salt and is unhealthy. Please Check the attached photo of ingredients listed only on the package. I wasn't able to verify the ingredients from the order page. I was able to read the ingredients only after receiving the order. I order 4 package of 16oz. value $57. I am returning all of 4 of them and I am asking Woodland Foods for reimbursement.”
“This grocery store takes one stop shop to a new level. The food here is fresh, they’ve really thought of everything and make so many staples available! The hot bar is made fresh to order and so absolutely delicious. I’ll absolutely be recommending to everyone and anyone. With the addition of Drip & Culture takes this business to a whole new level! Amazing.”
“Always like the tamales, pozole, and their salsas. It’s become our favorite weekend meal—the quality is consistent and the flavors are authentic. Highly recommend for a Saturday or Sunday treat!”
“This is a good place to buy fruits and vegetables. Prices are average, and sometimes there are good discounts. I can't say anything outstanding, but I can't say anything bad either. Just a regular local market.”
“in July I had beautiful flowers sent from my out of state brother They were GORGEOUS and the delivery guy went out of the way to leave them out of harms way in my garage since I wasn't home I will use THEM from now on!”
“(Translated by Google) An excellent place to do your shopping, the staff is very friendly ????????(Original)Un exelente lugar para aser tus compras el personal es muy amable ????????”
“Great people own this store. FYI Folks, you Can't expect walmart prices in ANY local ma n pa convenience store. Shop local, SUPPORT SMALL BUSINESS AND HELP MAKE THIS COUNTRY BETTER!?????”
“Excellent customer service, its clean, and food is not rotten like at other local grocery stores. I love the thin cuts (chicken, pork chops, etc.) - i dont think ive seen them at the other local Jewel Osco stores.”
“For many years we have ordered Hawaiian roll sandwiches for our New Years Day party. Patty, in the deli, makes them and they are wonderful!! She is always so friendly and upbeat behind the counter and is a treat to see! You have a gem of a team member in Patty!!”
“Affordable prices for groceries and at the taqueria, the food is ssssooooo delicious. So flavorful. Their taco dinner is only $7.99 and you get three tacos, rice, and beans! My absolute favorite place. And they are always so sweet and friendly.”
“My recent trip to this location was absolutely great! Everyone was helpful and friendly! As it is recently remodeled, i encourage you to do your shopping here! The store manager, Avonte, was also very helpful”
“Jaime is such a blessing to the bakery department! Thank you for being so kind and understanding AND for making a phenomenal cake under time constraints. The cake was a hit!”
“Wow what a delight from Esquites ? (Corn in a Cup) I had already heard that the quintessential Esquites place in Waukegan was the Super Ortiz in Belvidere Mall. In addition to the exquisite Esquites, they sell snacks such as Fruit, Jellies, Cakes, so there are for every taste. The relevant thing is that I discovered that the glasses in which they serve the corn are Biodegradable eco-friendly, congratulations for not only taking care of the quality of your product, but also taking care of the environment. When you have a craving, do yourself a favor and visit Super Ortiz.”
“Love this place I pass up every store closer I could go to but always drop in this location , they always got what I need and the employees are awesome. Ron very cool guy makes sure I got what im looking for & good guy to talk to humble and people's person. I drop in couple times a week off my Pace route lol like Ron mentioned it's not the place it's the people!!! Cya ya guy's soon and keep up the GREAT WORK.”
“I can say that my experience in this store is a hit or miss because there are times that my experience is good and there are also times that it is not. The store carries a ton of stuff and everything that I could ever want and need, from groceries to clothes, home goods, etc. The store is also spacious enough and it has a nice layout where everything is easy to find. I wanted to start with their groceries. Their grocery products are great. There are a variety of choices. The products are also fresh and the quality is good. However, the stocks are not maintained. There are times when specific items are out of stock, which is very disappointing, especially when they are products that I desperately need. That is one of the problems I faced in this store. Other products are well-stocked, but there have been times when I couldn't find what I was looking for because it was already out of stock. Meanwhile, I do not have any problems with the bread the store carries because they have all the particular brands I wanted and I could think of. I also think that they have all the great brands. Prices are fair and reasonable here. They do not go higher and if they do, they only have a few differences, which is great and also the reason why I like this store. Their prices are reasonable, and they usually have lower prices than any other store. Service here is pretty nice too. The staff are friendly and helpful. They are always attentive whenever I want to ask something or anything, and they are always glad to help.”
“Admittedly, I spend most of my time at the hot bar but every single time and each visit has been top notch. The daily specials are amazing and the sales at the butcher counter cant be beat. Special shout to Alejandro for always providing superior service.”
“I never have problems at this store. I switched to Jewel because CVS and Walgreens are an expensive mess that often have lines wrapped around the store, and the CVS even handed me someone else's pills one day. I just got tired of the high prices, staffing issues, store closures, and unprofessionalism at the other pharmacies. I can't for the life of me figure out how they lose money selling pills that sometimes cost thousands of dollars a bottle. Anyway, I've always had on time accurate prescriptions at lower cost at Jewel-Osco and their staff is friendly.”
“I love that they consistently have certain items I go for & at really good prices. I also love the random stuff I find, like holiday decor. Really cute Easter items are out now and I keep checking back for new finds. Customer service has been excellent every time! ?”
“Shout out to the Fella working tonight, December 3, 2025 at the 1501 Belvidere Rd., location for going over and above customer service and pulling the children's snow sleds out of storage on his own for me, and how appreciated people are these days for any customer service, let alone service like that without having to beg for assistance w/ finding an item or product that's not easy to find! Thank You! On that note, the checkout girl should take notes from him..”
The Cincinnati-based supermarket giant will open about 110 new stores in fast-growing markets by 2029 and introduce three updated store formats, executives told investors Oct. 20 at the company’s Investor Update in New York. Kroger already runs about 2,700 stores in 35 states. The formats come in three sizes, a bit like small, medium and large, matched to each market. Mary Ellen Adcock, Kroger’s executive vice president and chief merchant and marketing officer, walked through the lineup.
Walmart shoppers want a head start on the holidays, and money explains a lot of it. Some 44% of respondents call affording the holidays their top stressor, and 61% say holiday costs shape their shopping mood. Asked what would make the season easier, 70% picked lower prices and 57% picked more deals and promotions. Convenience ranks lower: 30% want one-stop shopping across categories, and 20% want faster delivery.
Walmart wants your groceries at the door before the ice cream softens. On May 29, the retailer said its 30-minute-or-less delivery had reached 33 U.S. markets, adding a wave of new cities across the Northeast. Shoppers in those areas can order from more than 100,000 items, everything from fresh produce and baby formula to pet food, electronics, cold medicine, and prescriptions. Behind the scenes, the service leans on Walmart's store network and an algorithm that factors in order size, available drivers, and distance from the store.
Trader Joe's keeps adding stores, and shoppers keep showing up. The California grocer has marked nine more locations as "opening soon," pushing its expansion into new corners of the country. The grocer also took first place in the American Customer Satisfaction Index's 2026 supermarket rankings. It has held a spot near the top of that list for years.
Target is rolling out its most ambitious store overhaul in more than ten years, with plans to remodel over 130 locations and open 30 new stores across the country this year. The retailer is also putting money into supply chain technology upgrades to keep pace with how shoppers buy today.
