“We enjoyed our shopping trip at Whole Foods. We found this location to be less crowded than the one we usually go to, which was certainly a nice surprise. The staff is friendly and helpful. There is a great selection of gluten free and allergy friendly options. The self-check out lanes are pretty cramped (very small space so it's a little hard to fit a cart when it's busy), but all we're working well and are monitored closely so problems get fixed quickly.”
“I'm a Fedex Express driver. My route is in North Andover. The last couple of years I've been coming here for my chicken and meats and they are amongst the best I've ever had. Would highly recommend this market for sure”
“Elia's has been a Wilmington staple for many years, and although I've only started going in the past 10 years of my life, I wish I had started going sooner.
Where else in Wilmington can you get groceries, deli and grill-able meats, and liquor all in one store?
As it's local, the prices can be a little less than desirable, but just for convenience sake alone it's worth it, not to mention supporting small, local business.
Personal favorites are the marinated meats (either from the counter, or over in the fridge pre packed) especially the steak tips, however their chicken salad is a sleeper hit, and I haven't tried one of their other salads that have disappointed thus far (the red bliss dill potato salad is amazing).”
“I'm this Day and Moment with the price of fuel ⛽ there's No Other Place too go for it, Well Worth it Every Time, especially when you use their Black ? Card. It changes frequently, last week was $2.98 compared to $3.50 + as much as $4 +..”

“McKinnon's in salem NH is the place where you can find everything, good stuff, delicious meals and friendly staff, a little bit overpriced but with the deal of the day and some discounts we can say its even ,
Inflation's fault ??
Keep it up guys and for sure I'll be back at this place”
“I wanted to leave this review to give a special shout out to Lisa in the prepared food department. I called on Sunday an hour before closing and asked if they could make 15 subs. Lisa answered the phone and, despite being busy, promised to do her best to get the subs done as soon as possible. When I arrived just 15 minutes later, the large order of turkey subs was nearly finished. What Lisa didn't know was that we were having a gathering after my aunt's funeral, and many more people showed up than expected, causing us to run out of food within the first hour. I truly appreciate Lisa going the extra mile on such a difficult day for my family. Hope this review finds its way back to her so that her and the other two staff members know how thankful I am for there efforts.”
“Market basket's a good place it's not always talked with the things that you have but when it is everything is good. It's best to go either early in the morning or late afternoon kind of like evening time because there's not a lot of people there. Depending on which one you go to since they're only in new england's, will depend on what time of day they're less busy. The one in Salem New Hampshire there's like three of them and they're all busy all the time. The one here in Rochester is nice in the morning there's not a lot of people and like after dinner there is not a lot of people either which is nice to go shopping it's peaceful rather than people bumping into you and standing in the way and rushing here and rushing there.”
“Large store, plenty of stock shelves, very helpful staff, and quick checkout. Very good experience. I do not live in the area but visit often for another store in the area and it's very helpful to have this market basket where it is! Overall great experience.”
“I love market basket and was thrilled when I saw there was one right off the highway here. I left with a fresh branzini which the gentleman at the seafood counter cleaned for me, fresh haddock fillets for dinner tomorrow night, some of the most beautiful pork you've ever seen, and a delightful selection of Mexican and Central American foods, some of which I've never seen before. I bought unsweetened mango pulp for $2.59 and unsweetened mamey pulp for the same price, as well as frozen/ pre-cooked fried sweet plantain. Additionally, had a wide selection of Albanian smoked sausage, and a surprisingly broad selection of tropical fruits and vegetables including yucca flowers and some other type of flowers that are in season right now from plants I've never heard of, breadfruit,, galangal, etc They have dandelion greens, banana flowers and two different kinds of bitter melon. Their meat selection was, as always inspiring and incredibly well priced and I almost bought some liverwurst but, I was too excited about the green corn tamales to buy more lunch supplies just now. I was tempted to buy the stewing chicken as I've never seen one in a grocery store before and, I bet it makes an incredibly flavorful and rich broth. Until I buy the rabbit or the beef cheeks that I bought from them on my last visit, however, I'm not buying anything else to put in the freezer ?
The way to cook a branzini like the fish the gentleman cleaned for me is this:
Ask the person you're buying it from to cut off the head, clean it, and ideally scale it for you because that part's messy. (If they don't scale it for you, you will want to do it yourself. It's not hard but, the scales do tend to fly everywhere. So, with that in mind, I like to put on an apron and do it outside)
Hold the fish as firmly as you can by the tail and, from tail toward the head, use the side of a metal spatula to scrape the fish. Continue scraping against the scales until the spatula slides smoothly and no longer catches.
Then, rub your fingers over the skin and, if nothing catches them, you are good to go.
Use scissors to cut off the fins.
Use a sharp knife to cut several slits in the side of the fish from spine toward belly making sure to cut all the way to the bone.
Then, dust both sides with flour.
Preheat a pan on HIGH
Then, immediately before adding the fish, put in a few tablespoons of olive oil.
Fry the fish on high heat, shaking the pan occasionally to ensure even coverage, for 3 minutes per side.
At that point, I like to lift the cooked filet off the top side, and place it skin side up on a plate so it stays crispy. Then I lift up the cooked bones, using my fingers to check up by where the fish's head was especially and place the second filet skin side up on its plate. In the picture shown, I've put the entire fish on the plate and have pulled part of the first fillet off. You can see how juicy it is. I decided to save the second fillet for breakfast. It keeps well overnight when cooked like that”
“Surprizing enough I found my favorite chips, Stacy's cinnamon pita chips. Very popular. They should double their order. Only thing I didn't find is Stur Blueberry/blackberry drink mix.”
“The store appears to be clean. Isles are arranged in a fashion where you can find the item that you're looking for. They also have a good sized cigarette counter. This is beneficial because they are one of the few, over the border, that sell them at very competitive price.”
“I love this place. Its simple, not a ton of variety, anesthetic leaves a lot to be desired, but lower market prices on "home-made" food items made onsite is a refreshing change from the usual high priced farm stand pricing. Soup bar, as mentioned by many is top tier.”
“Very nice staff. Customer service people are great. Always good quality meats and produce. Not sure why they run out of milk and cream so often. Parking is good.”
“I am an avid Demoulas shopper, I love this pace, prices are as low as we can expect for this economy, MB is clean, staff are friendly and I can always find what it is that I need. No complaints .”
“Great local grocery store. One of the few left that aren't overpriced monstrosities. This is my go-to market even though I live closer to the Reading location. People here are generally kind and calm unlike some of the other locations. I've shopped here for years and years - as a kid with my mom and now as an adult with my own family. Glad to see they still have the same charm they did in 1990.”
“Love Market Basket! Great selection and prices. I go out of my way to do my grocery shopping at this MB. I recently had the pleasure of converting a life long S&S fan; they are now fully on team MB!”
“Market Basket continues to be a great grocery store. With many products. They sell good quality meats and produce. I've shopped at several of them over many years and have never had a problem. My wife shops at MB in NH for us, and I shop at MB in MA for my daughter. Once again, we've never had any issues. They have the best products for a reasonable price. We went again today and once again they had everything that my daughter needed. Great store.”
“Excellent place to buy food. Ask for the alcapurrias (fritters), they are to die for. Among a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables, they also sell desserts, my favorite one us the flancocho, is delicious!”
“This Market Basket has a great selection of Spanish spices and similar items because of the local population. Everything I've ever needed has been readily available, and the staff is always willing to lend a hand.”

“I was ignorant that Aldi has some really good food items. I even buy non food merchandise sometimes. Only little problem is the card reader, if you type your code at the same time it is asking you for cash back, it will select an amount of cashback. Other than that I love to stop there.”

“Alex truly came through tonight while shopping an instacart order. I left my items next to the can deposit to ask for a reprint of my receipt and my cart was gone! Thought someone had stolen my groceries and alex immediately looked at the surveillance and noticed it wasn't the case. Thanks ?!”
“Nice shop. So happy that they have Chinese Spaghetti Factory dumplings in their freezer! Personally I don't think their prices are unfair for a small Asian shop.”
“Market basket, is a step above other super markets. I there prices and food selections comparable to other supermarkets, but there kitchen is what sets them apart. From other supermarkets. Unfortunately market basket kitchens are not available in there older stores.”
“Stopped in for the first time today. OH MY GOODNESS. Amazing. Amine let us try some of the most delicious food I’ve had in a long time. He & his wife Lori have a delicious thing going on, and they are lovely people. Walked out with a couple bags full & we can’t wait to go back!!”
“Pretty good shop for fishing supplies. There are not many local options, but this place covers the basics. Would rather support the local biz than buy everything at Walmart. Not sure on a discount for buying 2 dozen shiners. But like that they have 2 size options.”
“ ??This is the best place to find fresh meats, fruits, vegetables in SUPER good condition, as clean as possible, everything SUPER ORGANIZED, very friendly (the only place I get snow crab) and many products from our Caribbean islands , tropical sweets and more. It's not the cheapest, but I wouldn't change it for that...”
“Great Teriyaki Chicken Wings, Produce is Ok Not The Freshest, Prices On Everything Has Gone Up From $1.00-$3.00+ Depending on The Product?.Always Long Cash Out Lines?,Baggers Are Awefull, Not Trained On Bagging, I Have Too Re-Bag Everything Before Putting In In My Car?.Looking To Possible Find An Aldi's and Start Doing My Shopping Their.”
“This is a pretty good store to shop at, despite their size they are pretty well-stacked and offer good variety. They are regularly understaffed in my opinion, but the people working there are pretty awesome, so it saves this place from 3 stars.”
