“The NYT recently posted a Peruvian chicken recipe, and I found this nice store when I went looking for ingredients. The owner was so nice, gave me some great tips, and introduced me to a few things I had never used before. The dinner that I served was amazing, and I’m so glad to have found this great business!”
“stopped in they had turkey that was smoked on the slicer got a fantastic lunch for myself after being on a tough drain job
glad I stopped in and got three Al Kapone steaks”
“The best hamburger meat and filet mignon. They also had twice-baked potatoes and mac and cheese ready to put in the oven before heating. Very great customer service, too.”
“If they have it, it's cheaper than any where else in the twin cities. HUGE wine selection and the bourbon selection is big too. They had bottles you won't find elsewhere and commons at bargain prices. They're knowledgeable and nice. Stop here first, you'll be glad you did.”
“Great selection, great product, great staff. Locations everywhere in the metro area. You'll find only the best at von Hansen's Meats. We are always delighted.”
“They have yummy meat! My family has been going here ever since I was little and they’ve always had consistently good meat. Such as good meat sticks and good chorizo meat. I haven’t been disappointed with anything yet. It also just smells so good when you walk in. Everyone seems to be friendly and helpful. Will be back soon for more meat! Would highly recommend this place to anyone!”
“I'm not sure if this is a Mexican or a Latin grocery store but they have lots of items I remember from growing up. I used to think everyone had rice and beans with all their meals. Memories.”
“The ribs are amazing, and the front-end person was really sweet. They are also generous to the troops (a wonderful gesture). I'd give them a try again and recommend them to friends!”
“Live very close to here and its super convenient having a little grocery so close by. Their produce is not always the best but their meat sections more than makes up for it. If you're looking for fresh good meat with a large variety of cuts this is the place.”
“I love how La Chiquis is a little store that seems to carry almost everything I need. They do have a schedule for Tamales (referencing review by Nichole R). They get the tamales and other prepared food Friday night or Saturday morning and have them until they are out. If you don't see it on display, you can ask what they have in the back. Everyone is friendly and bilingual.”
“Wine, beer, and spirits store attached to our local favorite market. Pretty good selection for a small shop. The staff is top-notch. You pay a little more than you would at a dedicated liquor store, but I like the convenience of combining grocery shopping and booze shopping at a single stop.”
“I shop here often and I like ? it. The only small issue is that there are no prices on the stuff they sell. You have to ask them each time to scan something. It's not a big deal, though. Check my family-friendly YouTube channel JacobAndDad subscribe to support us”
“Great meat selection with wide variety of grill ready and fresh meats and deli salad options. In addition, huge freezer selection of their specialty items all prepared and ready for the oven.”
“Kenyan friends were super excited to find products and spices they've been missing. The shopkeeper was helpful in showing them products they might not have noticed but that he knew others from their area enjoyed. Parking on the south side of the building, towards 94, made it easy to stop in.”
“I wish I could give SIMEK’s a million star rating. They are truly one of my all time favorite brands. I first bought their Kids Mini Breakfast Sausages for my grandkids, they are cute little meatball shape. Now they’ve become one of my own favorites too. The kids also love the kids little beef ones too, and honestly everything we try from SIMEK’s is a hit.
Their Italiano lasagna, ziti, ABF Angus meatballs, and Gluten Free turkey meatballs are all ammmmazing! It feels so good to serve food that tastes amazing and comes from a company that cares.
What makes Simek's also stand out even more is who they are. Women owned, local and every time I buy one of their products it generates a meal donation to Feeding America. I do not know any brand that cares this much and does what they do! That is the kind of impact I love supporting.
Simek's truly has it right, and I can’t recommend them enough!!!”
“Went in fully expecting tanks of frogs, maybe some fancy French frog legs in the deli case. Nope. Zero frogs. Just sad bananas and warm Monster cans.The real vibe is the back stairs. Every 30 seconds some dude in a hoodie speed-walks up to the apartments above like he’s late for a very specific appointment with destiny. One guy asked me if they sold “just the legs.” Felt that in my soul.Place smells like old taquitos and regret. If you want actual frogs, keep walking. If you enjoy light chaos and not asking questions, this is your spot.”
“Friendly service. Plenty of free parking. Fantastic melt-in-your-mouth beef skewers! And skin-on wieners. Delicious. They also have a freezer section with family meals.”

“Great place and excellent services. EXCEPT Starbucks Coffee. Just don't get it as why their coffe testy nothing but milky . I had several orders there, customers services are great even at Coffee shop but I will never try to get any kind of coffee there again unless they make sure the test is improved. I even asked for extra shot to get better test of coffe , doesn't even test like a coffee. I had to take it out and just discarded it. NO coffee at this location for me.”
“Been shooping here 10 years and will not stop. They just dont take food stamps anymore but thats fine. They have the best meats deals and prices i love the store”
“Went to this location as I was in the Towne Center area. Didn't know they were even there until I spotted them. Usually I go to the Route 13 location off Cliff Rd and Route 13. With that said.
Employees were courteous and helpful, and gave up some military love on the price. The employees went out of their way to cut up 4 T-Bone steaks that were HUGE!!! Great service and huge selection of meat, cheese, and bread even. They are a bit pricy, but worth it. Made this disabled veteran's day.
My Mom enjoyed the T-Bone steaks tremendously.”
“I go here regularly and speak very little Spanish and still get very good service. They are a small store and as of recently business has been slower for a lot of Latino owned businesses so having a lot of old stock is expected but could still be managed better from the looks of other reviews. That being said I have been purchasing from this store for almost two years and have never received anything spoiled or expired. They have a very good meat selection, the tamales are great and I usually buy extras to freeze for a later date and I am met with a smile almost always. Give more small stores like this a shot, establishments like THIS are what makes us a great country. As far as price goes sometimes things can be spendy if you’re comparing to Walmart but reasonable if you’re comparing to Cub, Whole Foods or Hyvee, but the price of Chicken did go up here which has lead me to shop here less.”

“Love Mississippi Market, and I just have to give a shout to one of the best employees, Taylor, at the Selby store! Taylor is always friendly and pleasant at the checkout line. My day is always brighten from our conversations! Truly a gem of a human being!”
“If you need a spice for any cuisine they probably have it! Fresh fruit and vegetables Cub doesn't carry. Meat and seafood as well as a small prepared food counter. Jeweler at front of store. Prices aren't bad considering they're going up everywhere.”
“Hey just got here to Minnesota and I think this place deserve a 5 star beautiful selections of meat and fish. And amazing service will be back for sure.😊”
