    As seen on Shark Tank. ..and it's delicious.
    Christopher V.

    Yes, prices are more expensive than your typical grocery store, but I love the quality, selection and service. In particular I I've their butcher section. Fresh Market Place offers a wide selection of Slagel Farms pork, chicken, and beef. You can't beat this quality. The butchers are informed and even offer cooking prep suggestions. Publican Bread, another tough find, is sold here as well. It's great to have a small local market with so many great finds. Produce is again pricey, but very fresh. I wouldn't suggest completing all of your grocery shopping here, but strongly suggest checking out the butcher and produce sections. Pro Tip: Table 87 pizza is sold here. .. and it's better than any frozen pizza in your freezer.

    Great beer selection!

    Fresh Market Place has a crazy good beer selection! They have had cases of Bourbon County Barleywine for awhile now...get on that! They also have Hopslam 6 packs for $18 and just generally, a ton of good craft beer options. The craft beer is what had me coming here in the first place but now their meats, cheeses and other items are what keep me coming back. Prices are very hit or miss so know what you're doing when you're buying from here. I have found that their meat prices are fantastic though and they offer a good selection. All my protein buying needs have been met through Fresh Market Place. I'm a simple girl and my cart is full of beer, meat, cheese and veggies. Done and done! I don't usually buy produce here though as I don't think the prices on their fruit & veggies are fabulous. Be sure to bring your reusable bags people!

They have excellent roast duck as well as other prepared food options like chicken. Their prepared food looked better than at least one similar grocery store that I saw. Their store is organized and has a lot of good food. It looks like they have a lot of good produce. I appreciated their different options for tofu.

    I stopped in Chinatown on my way back from the south side because I knew I'd find the rice noodles…read moreand bok choi I needed for a new recipe without issue. Sometimes when I'm trying to find "international" ingredients at Mariano's or something it's hit or miss. I found what I needed here and it was a fairly quick trip--I don't think I was in store more than 20 minutes. The store is small, and very very crowded. Aisles are about as wide as a single person facing forward. This isn't a place where you're going to get a shopping cart down an aisle. The prices are good. I got a head of Napa cabbage for 99 cents per pound, and when I go to my neighborhood store it's usually closer to $3-4 or more per pound. Since it was such a steal I added hot and sour soup to my menu for the week. There's a parking lot at this store. It's one way, and you must enter from Archer. DO NOT enter the wrong way or you won't be able to park--the spaces are angled and there's not enough space between the building and the fencing to turn yourself around. There are only about ten parking spaces here so I'm sure it gets filled pretty quick, but when I was here I was the only car parked here. There's street parking which can be pretty chancy, but maybe I'm just speaking from the perspective of someone who was here on a busy Sunday in Chinatown.

    Jewel Osco was the most recommended rotisserie chicken that I had in Chicago…read more I went in to pick up my beloved bird, but damn near broke my neck when I saw a 15+ person line over at the fried chicken station. A line for grocery store fried chicken? Absolute cinema. People have been recommending I get into fried chicken reviews, and I've resisted as I really don't want to get fat, but this was the perfect storm to start a grocery store fried chicken review journey. I got to the front in the line and felt like a fish out of water. I sheepishly asked the employees, Darius R and Damariea J, what the move was as it was my first time getting fried chicken from here. I thought they'd be annoyed, but they were so helpful and welcoming. "Today is actually wing bucket Friday! A whole bucket is normally $17.99 but today it's $9.99. I can give you some of everything so you can try, but the spicy wings are my favorite." Hell yeah. Darius was the MAN. I took my tissi and wing bucket to the UIC campus for consumption. The tissi was a brick and landed at a 6/10, which currently ranks it 71st out of 94 grocery store birds I've tried, but the fried chicken was INSANE. Darius wasn't lying, the spicy wings were next level. The best grocery store chicken I've ever had. Boomin the Publix fried chicken. Shoutout to the Darius' and Damariea's of the world. Good people.

There's always ample parking that's free and there is a large variety of choices of foods as well as non-food items. The prices are a little bit higher, but it's convenient because they are everywhere. And they are really good sales sometimes where you can get mushrooms for one dollar, strawberries for one dollar, blueberries for one dollar, and even tofu for $1 which was just on 3/9/25. On the app, you can get a free item almost every weekend, but you just have to clip it as well as the digital coupons. Just make sure all the prices get scanned properly when you look at your receipt and they will adjust it right away if there is ever a technical error. Overall, having a Jewel Osco in Chicago makes life easier for me because of the sales as well as finding one everywhere.

As always, I am looking for new fantastic restaurants, and stores to try out, and share with: family, friends, and on Yelp. As you walk in it seems like a common corner store, groceries in the front, meat towards the rear. When I walked to the back I had a pretty good hunch this would be a great one. The fresh smell, it was very clean, and the amazing eye catching signage. You could feel like you just walked into in a sweet little store in Mexico. When they handed me the food I ordered I knew was on the right track. When I took my first bites I smiled, and knew, I needed to share this place. I was intrigued by the Pozole Verde sign out front. I had never had it before, so I placed my order for that and zero regrets. It comes out in a quart container with a plastic wrapped foam tray with: chopped onions, cilantro, radish, shredded cabbage, and mexican oregano. I added mostly everything but went easy on the oregano. The chunks of chicken were tender and not overcooked. The hominy and vegetables were just right as well. They have this to a science and it has to be near perfect. Now to the tacos: As you often see in neighborhood grocery stores the chorizo was hanging in back above the meat counter, so a house made chorizo taco was a given. The Al Pastor was reccomend by the one of the butchers, and I had a steak taco to round it, and myself, out. All I can say is that like the pozole everything was superb. Even the salsas.. I wish I knew of this place when I worked and lived in the area. I would definitely have known everyone there by name. I still smile thinking of it, and next time I'm in that hood, I will be there. I look forward to trying out a few more menu items, and picking up some of the fresh meat. So maybe don't slap Grandma... but you should at least pick her up and take her out to lunch here. Enjoy! #AlfieEats
