“I love the deep fried gorditas (carnitas) and they have a variety of other food made if gorditas isn't your thing. Also you have to ask for them, they are not out by the other food, they are in the oven.”
“Very good prices compared to big stores like Jewel and they always have good candy/small snacks that are perfect because I walk to school so it's convienient to get a quick snack first!!”
“Delicious! Authentic! Great people with friendly service! We were looking for a grocery store to grab quick groceries for dinner. When we realized it wasn’t a real grocery store we started walking out when we realized there was nothing stopping us from changing plans. A great decision on our part! He sealed the deal with an offer of a free sample which convinced us that a dinner plan change needed to happen!”
“So much variety of products. Good swear you're shopping in a grocery store in another country. Nice to see lots of customers supporting a smaller grocery store.”
“This place is great for buying fresh meat. Been coming here for years. I would give it a 5 stars but I just recently purchased arrachera and ordered 13 pounds but I didn’t even get 10 pounds when I weighed it, it was 9.8. I know they clean it but I thought 3 pounds was a little excessive.”
“As a loyal Aldi customer who has enjoyed the perks of Aldi shopping both abroad and at home here in the US, I just want to say that I am so thankful for the Aldi employees at my home West Chicago location. Today 7/13 at around 4:10pm I witnessed a man talk to our favorite cashier in the rudest, most condescending way imaginable… and our cashier was so respectful, poised, and professional. Even the manager was involved, and as someone who witnessed the whole conversation, I was so impressed with their professionalism. If a man spoke to me that way I would’ve smacked them with my platform Croc faster than they could’ve asked “what’s your name so I can report you?” The customer became so rude and disrespectful (tone and volume of voice), that he was asked to leave in a respectful way. BRAVO ALDI EMPLOYEES! Bring the millennial that I am, I had 911 ready to dial because this customer had the never to taunt them with “oh so you’re going to drag me out of here then?” Ugh, can’t believe the Aldi employees kept a straight face and their professional hats on. Just wanted to say that a sane human watched that happen and no one deserves to be talked to that way. I have submitted a report to Aldi describing everything I saw and hope that you continue to kick out entitled & disrespectful guests who want to pick fights about shopping carts. ? And if you’re the rude customer reading this right now — I hope you have the life you deserve! ?”
“A little pricier than the Jewel across the street, but absolutely worth it for what you get. They carry a wide variety of unique and hard-to-find items that you just won’t see at a typical grocery store. The store is always spotless, well-organized, and easy to navigate. On top of that, the staff is consistently friendly, helpful, and genuinely seem to enjoy what they do. Overall, a great shopping experience every time.”
“People have a lot to say these days and you can clearly tell they have never worked retail in their life.so what if their 10minutes late? Have you never been late to work? Let’s focus on the important things. i’ve been going to this store for years now and I can’t express how greatful I am for this management, the kind staff that makes you feel welcomed, the shelves that are always stocked,name brand items, huge medicine isle, fresh and frozen foods and a variety of household necessities, and the most important to me is the staff and how kind and helpful they are to everyone , especially elderly people , nice work wc dollar general staff😊 also, I highly recommend downloading the digital coupon app, it’s a life saver in this economy!..”
“Great place to pick up a delicious and affordable lunch 😋. I had the sushi for lunch today. It was freshly made and only 5.00 dollars. With Jewel-Osco around, there is no need to ever visit a fast food restaurant again.”
