βVery unique store with a wide spectrum of foods for almost every single culture and country. The atmosphere was a bit thrown together, but the prices were very reasonable overall with a few great bargains.β
βI had a hard time settling on stars.
The selection is very wide, but the aisles are very narrow and shoppers on a Saturday afternoon pushy and difficult to navigate around. I would have liked to be more leisurely in selecting items as a new visitor unfamiliar with the layout, but there wasnβt much room in the aisles and I kept feeling like I had to get out of the way. Perhaps at a less busy time of day, it would have been more enjoyable.
The smell of the seafood is overpowering. Par for the course but heads up if youβre sensitive to fishy smells.
Ultimately settled on 4 stars because of the sheer volume of selections on hand. The cashiers were super fast and pleasant at checkout. Worth it to stock up on Thai instant noodles, curry pastes, chiles, herbs and spices.
I donβt know if the marketβs owners also manage the public restrooms, but I would skip them if you can hold it.β
βThe staff here has always been phenomenal. Over the years they have always been so kind, quick to lend a helping hand and have even spoiled my kids with little treats on multiple occasions. Sometimes we only walk away with a couple finds, sometimes the cart is over flowing, either way it's always a good experience.β
βBought the BEST fresh kielbasa I've ever had!!! My wife and I also bought one of their famous foot-long deli sandwiches with bologna, salami, ham, and cheese.....Incredible!!! The entire staff was very friendly, helpful, and proud of the products they sell.β
βThis place is awesome! A real small business operated by locals. Theyre prices and quality on produce are the best around, lots of michigan grown products. I love the case prices on produce as well, it helps is eat well and save a ton on groceries. I always leave Kenβs with heavy bags and a heavy wallet!β
βMy payment experience was simple... The cashiers are all very friendly and knowledgeable.
The atmosphere at Kingmas is very calm. There isn't a rushed feeling there.β
βLove their produce. Always restocking....shelves look amazing. I appreciate the smaller footprint for the store. As a person with medical issues, I appreciate being able to walk the store and find everything I need.β
βThis Aldi is quite a bit bigger than the one by our house. It has a lot more items. We love all Aldi stores, but this one is one of the better ones.
We still drive to this ALDI every week. It's the best one on 28th St.β
βI love it , this is my first time going here & they have so many things you canβt find no where else except in a different country . They had things Iβve been wanting to try . The owner was soo friendly , nice , good customer service , gave me free candy , he was so adorable . If u go here pls tip he was so happy to get a tip.β
βI stopped in to Grand Butchers to look for some steak for my Christmas Eve meal. I was greeted right away and the friendly employee cut me two generous ribeye steaks. It was about $20 per pound, which is certainly better than any restaurant pricing so I was happy. I don't buy a ton of meat so I'm not sure if that pricing is in line with other stores, but I wanted to support this local shop right in my own neighborhood. They had a large selection of other cuts of meat, chicken, and packaged items like crackers, sauces, dips, gifts, and more. I'm definitely coming back to Grand Butchers the next time I need a more special cut of meat. Love the large parking lot and I was in and out in no time.β
βThis is the best store ever cuh, i come here every sunday after church, I be getten some good ahh drinks and one of dem ice creams with the little plastic cover. Overall, you should come here every sunday after church, make sure it's a sunday. Also they got buldak ramen.β
9AM - 8PM
289 54th St SW, WyomingβHad to wait in line for over 30 minutes. There was only 2 lanes open and the line was over halfway down the aisle . Update for my experience with Aldi's store.... I walked in to the store,picked up the items I went in for,was in line for a minute, maybe two. Payed and walked out All within 10 minutes and very courteous employee. Definitely going to be a regular here.β
8:30AM - 8PM
3101 Knapp St NE, Grand RapidsβThis Aldi has a great selection of groceries, at an affordable price at an awesome location, with accessible checkouts and hours. Also, a worker at this Aldi named Bailey, who was working at the checkouts, went above and beyond to be helpful, courteous, and kind, when I had a much more complex, and potentially difficult transaction.β
9:30AM - 11PM
721 Cherry St SE, Grand RapidsβTop shell staff vary knowledgeable defiantly can help you find what your looking for, very good experience and will be returning. Suggest that you check it out.β
βI lived in Grand Rapids for 11 years and would go to the Farmers Market and buy eggs and their chorizo, breakfast, and Italian sausage. I missed their chorizo I came for a visit and I decided to bring some home with me. Packed them in a cold bag put them in my luggage. They were still frozen when I got back to Seattle. Next morning I had chorizo and eggs I was in heaven. Hi Jennyβ
βWe were preparing for a graduation party. We had no idea how much food we needed, so we asked Gordon's to give us an estimate? We went with their quantities, paid for it, and took it home. After the party, we came to the realization that we had way too much food leftover. The quantities were over and above what we actually used. We ended up giving our unopened leftovers away to other parents who had grad parties coming up. I can't really blame Gordons because we estimate that 23 people invited didn't attend, but for your own peace of mind, please do some homework and don't take their figures at face value. Even if the 23 had attended, we still would have had extra!β
βFound Maureenβs credit card walking through the door and turned it in to customer service. Iβm wondering if I should have waited for the bank to open and dropped it off there. I went in to the store to buy bread and found the isle for bread. The overhead signs are the best place to look, when nobody is around. I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived just after 6:00 this morning, and the store was open. Iβm definitely going back to get all my groceries!β
βIt's ok. Came here a few years ago and enjoyed it much more. Seems like the redesign limited the food options but increase health and beauty. I went looking for groceries not lotions. Strong weird smell when you walk inβ
βSmall, friendly and was well stocked at our visit.We purchased Apples, peaches and some of the best tomatoes of this year.If in the area and want fresh fruit itβs worth the stop!!β
βSpent way too much money this morning but the clearance area had good deals. Too good of deals to pass up so loaded up on stewed tomatoes and family size tuna at great prices. I bought vitamins I thought were a good deal. 180 count but serving size is 2. So 3 months worth of vitamins for 43 bucks.β
βClean, well stocked, staff friendly ?. A little too expensive though.?
10/1/24 - Construction in progress! Seems like everyone (staff) is compensating very well! New freezers/coolers being installed. Looking forward to the finished remodel!β
βAlways so many things to be found here. Can feel overwhelming, but I like to pick one new thing to try at home as well as some spices and staples for the kitchen. Everyone here is kind and helpful. In the past Iβve bought henna here for very affordable prices too.β
βOrdered the oxtails dinner and fish dinner today for the first time and I can honestly say the food was excellent with huge portions. I'll definitely be back!!β
βGreat for
neighborhood. Great for those who choose
not to drive. Fairly good selection of unique foods. Great, lf you're having a party. Not as many bulk things as you'd think. Good produce and deli.β
βGreat place to wander around and get some Asian cuisine essentials. Love that there is a bahn mi and boba stand (closed Monday and Tuesday). Authentic and yummy. Vegetarian available. Bahn me only $6, boba $5 and huge bao for $3.β
βGreat owners that will order something if they don't already carry it. Very positive and go above and beyond to be helpful. Store is clean and well stocked. About as good as a liquor store or corner store can get. Highly recommend.β
βIt was Wednesday afternoon at 2pm when I was last there. They were very busy and only had 5 registers open. Each lane was 5 customers deep. I heard them call for "urgent cashiers" "urgent baggers" but no one responded. I used one of the limited self checkout because I only had 2 items.
I'm not sure if this is the norm or not.β
βThe best store for meat, bar none. However if you are looking to cater a party with potato salad or baked beans, go to Gordon's instead. The food is more like you remember from high school.β
βLovely shop, they sell nutcase vegan meats which is amazing and they have other great local products, it's not very close but if i lived nearby I'd do all my shopping thereβ
