“Custom cuts, and fresh grind done right.
Prices according w quality.
Also stocks a solid beer/wine selection.
Bonus: they run fun penny-beer promos (e.g., spend $50+ on meat and snag a 6-pack for just $0.01). Perfect combo for a grill night.
Staff are friendly and efficient, so I’m in and out fast.
Pro tip: check the weekly ad and go earlier for the best selection.”

“With grocery prices through the roof elsewhere, aldis still has quality products at pre-pandemic prices. Personally i love that there is less options so i don't have to think too hard about which to grab. Only complaint is that they have automated ordering so when the students leave the fruit and veg sits for a few weeks with replenishment and when the students return things are gone for a while.”

“I visit regularly. Staff is always very nice and welcoming, they have a good selection of most things. They don't have many fresh vegetables, but they have a lot of dried goods, spices, seasonings, sauces, dried noodles, prepackaged food, drinks, and frozen goods. I love the location as it's easy to get what I need while shopping for fresh meat, vegetables, and fruit at the other nearby stores. Another stand out feature is that they regularly get new frozen food like dumplings, bao, and ice cream that I love to try.”

“Nice supermarket, organized, fair prices. But there is only one egg brand, which is Hy-Vee, and it is quite expensive. All the male employees greet you cheerfully and say good morning with a smile. However, all the female employees seem to be angry.”

“I am writing about the Asian store opposite or next to hyvee here. They have a good amount of basics rice noodles, rice, indian lentils, mochi, rice paper, meat, sauce, veggies, fish cakes, nori sheets. The place is run by a Korean. The store smells of paint or varnish because there’s painting going on and renovation taking place. Shop keepers seem friendly. It’s growing and they stock up new things every so often with Asian kitchen items such as portable stove, ladles, teapots.”

“I used West Ames Hy-Vee Floral for my wedding, and while the department went through some management changes during my planning process (which was a little stressful at first), the new manager, Sarah, did an amazing job stepping in and communicating with me every step of the way.

The week of my wedding, my assigned florist, Shannon, was in constant communication to make sure my vision was fully captured. She asked all the right questions, confirmed every detail, and executed everything perfectly.

The flowers were absolutely beautiful, exactly what I had hoped for, and truly made my wedding day feel complete. I’m so grateful for the care, professionalism, and dedication from Sarah, Shannon, and the entire team.”

“I've been very happy with my experiences here! I have had some difficult orders, complications from doctors, or a whole host of other complex problems with getting my medication to the pharmacy, and the pharmacists have been so extremely helpful in making sure I actually receive my meds when I need them. I have used other pharmacies in the past, and I've really enjoyed this one!”
