The one thing I despise about this location is the left turn to get back on Normandy when leaving. The store itself is great. There are usually folks that don't put their shopping carts back. You're doing the store and yourself a favor if you grab it to either return and pocket that quarter or just use the cart and pass along the good deed if you will. ALDIs have certain type of marinated meats, Jalapeno poppers, and just some random items the other local supermarkets don't carry. I also noticed this location has a ton of name brand stuff. Oreo, Takis, Pringles just to name a few. I shop at Walmart weekly and various items are cheaper at ALDIs. Although that's not always the case. ALDIs doesn't carry all the ingredients I need so the visits here are typically one offs. Checkout can get a little backed up depending on the time of day. Bring your own bags unless you plan on carrying everything, or buying some. read more

I know. My initial review was awful due to my own ignorance and since that time, I have joined the Aldi Cult. You have to visit the area for Aldi Finds a.k.a. the Isle of Shame. Not only can you get some items that you didn't even know you need, it's a great place to grab useful and thoughtful gifts for others.... My go-to items that I shop at Aldi for on a regular are Clancy's White Cheddar Cheese Popcorn (so delicious!), their salmon (and if you can find their cedar plank salmon - get that!), heavy whipping cream, butter, milk, cheeses, ice cream tubs, and everything dairy, canned Skip Jack Tuna in water for my Kitty, their red bag chicken, orange juice with mango, two and three wick candles, and so much more! I'm a huge Aldi Fan and appreciate their selection and prices. Just remember to bring your big Aldi bag and a quarter. And if you forget your quarter, the cashier or another customer is always willing to lend you one. Love this place! read more

The parking lot had trash everywhere! Looked like a bomb went off. Disgusting! Really surprised company would allow their property to get that bad. read more

Usually shop here until yesterday when I found a LIVE TICK inside the peppers!! BEWARE AND WASH ALL OF YOUR VEGGIES BEFORE CONSUMING!! Can't get ahold of anyone in customer service. All they do is issue a refund or replacement for the same price. Not a good look Aldi!! read more

I visited ALDI's Market looking for something to cook for dinner. When you walk up. The shopping carts require $.25 for use. A very nice guy offered me a quarter since I didn't have change. Surprisingly, they have a lot of options. Fresh fruit and vegetables. The green grapes are huge & delicious. The meats were actually affordable and decent packaged sizes. I ended up getting pork chops. They have a good selection of dry food items. They do not have many name brand items. For example, you will not find Oreos, Lays, Campbell Soups, ect. It is very clean and spacious. They offer a nice selection of frozen foods and pies. If you don't bring bags, you can purchase them. $.08 for plastic bags and $.10 for paper bags. You will need to bag your own groceries after checking out. read more

The first time I ever entered an Aldi's I felt like I was in another country. Most of their products were not familiar to me. The first time I shopped, I walked out in shock. For $20 I was able to complete my grocery list plus more. As I continued to shop at Aldis I really loved the products. One day I wanted some Blue Agave syrup for my margarita cocktail & never expected to find it there. Well, even better it was the Lite version with less sugar. It was super delish on my margaritas. My favorites are: frozen vegetables, salmon, chicken and turkey breast. Also, cookies. Their wine & beer offerings are pretty good, inexpensive. They have a bunch of organic items and vegetarian prepared foods. I have not had anything bad from Aldi, except for fresh produce. You do have to look closely at the fresh produce cause at times I've found them not to be fresh. They always have new stuff not just groceries. They also have weekly specials on non food items e.g. housewares, garden stuff, clothing, shoes & much more. You must come on Wednesday as they run out all the time. Since they're always changing their inventory, if you fall in love with an item, in a few weeks you'd be out of luck. If you ask, they'll tell you it's seasonal and don't know when it will be available again. This does not stop me from going, in fact I look forward to discovering what new items they have each time. The quality & taste of food makes it a best value store for me. read more

While visiting my in laws on the west side, I checked out this new Aldi location that just opened not long ago here. The parking lot is huge, and the inside decor is very similar to whole foods. The shelves are well organized with canned foods on the right, poultry in the back, veggies and fruits in the middle and milk, eggs frozen items are on the left of the store. This location is definitely bigger than our usual one that I go to on Southside, which is nice. I like that it's open with high ceiling and all the items are very easy to locate. The fresh flower selections are bigger here, they have a variety of roses to choose from. It's a nice and quick shopping place, I'll definitely come back if I'm ever on this side of town again. read more

I shopped at an Aldi location, or two, when I lived in Europe, but usually when travelling outside Sicily. It was usually the neighborhood grocery store wherever you went. I was happy to see Aldi come to Jax not too long ago, but was defeated when both stores that opened were so far away. The sadness is no longer, as I, now, have an Aldi within a 5-minute drive of my humble abode! Can you sense my excitement? Unfortunately, due to general responsibilities, I was unable to make the grand opening day, but got out first thing this morning to explore our brand-spanking new Aldi with a friend. Of course, on this day of days, I actually forgot my reusable bags and had to grab a paper bag, as well as a box to carry my items. Don't worry, though, the bags are in the car now and ready for the next trip! I was super impressed from the moment I walked up to the front door. A lot of the storefronts along Normandy are pretty dim and dismal, and Aldi is just the bright shiny new penny on the block. As I was getting ready to fish a quarter out of my wallet for the cart, a nice gentleman paid his cart forward to me and I did the same when I left by giving my cart to this adorable, elderly couple after I unloaded into my car. Upon my entrance into the store, I was taken with the sparkling cleanliness of the store. I started wandering the aisles and found some amazing deals on all sorts of groceries, produce, and even some general goods like backpacks, candles, and gardening supplies. I didn't have enough time to do a good shop on this trip, but I'll be back for some of the great meat and frozen items that I saw like coconut spread! YES, really. For those who are looking to stay on a certain calorie load, I spotted a few great key items like quinoa, Sea Salt or Pink Himalayan Salt with the grinder, couscous, and more. There really is something for everyone here and if you are skeptical of yet another grocery store chain, all I ask is that you try it out once or twice for your weekly/monthly trip. read more

Great new store. Prices are very good. Minus one star for the clutter that sometimes is evident, and the sometimes a bit dirty floors and shelves. All the staff that I have encountered are nice but there aren't many out there. There are often longish lines to check out and nobody seems to care about that. If they are out they are out, so get it while you can. They have great flash sale prices on produce when they are overstocked. They do get an interesting selection of foreign foods and in particular some german things. They make a point of having gluten free items and also organic items. I stop in every few weeks to see what new interesting things they have gotten in. read more

I love Aldi's and am so glad they built one on the Westside for those of us who don't want to drive to the Avenue's for groceries. This just opened yesterday and is spotlessly clean. There was a mad rush while we were there but they were continually stocking and all the workers I encountered were very helpful and pleasant. The meats, cheeses and produce are fantastic for a "discount" grocery, with organic choices. Their "off" brand items are better than you realize. Good chips, crackers, chocolates, nuts, cookies/biscuits, etc. Gluten free items were everywhere. This particular Aldi's had a nice selection of Hispanic foods and we found the usual odd German items too. (They are a German company.) Remember, bring your own bags and a quarter for the shopping cart! read more

Prices may be amazing but watch the expiration dates. The food goes bad so fast here. I just bought some bagels and 2 days later there's mold everywhere. The stocking could be better. Lots of empty shelves. read more

I'm really fucked up about this. I just got grapes, spring mix salad, avocados, onions and tomatoes and paid 5.94, produce was 50% off maybe due to hurricane. It was my first time going. read more

Lots of parking. Put a quarter in the cart and you get your quarter back when you return the cart to the correct locations of which there are 2. The store has no bags,so bring your own or jist load everything bagless into trunk/backseat. The store itself is very clean. They save money by not "stocking" shelves but placing items I their original packaging. The prices are typically lower then walmart but the store is very small on comparison. Because of this fact,the availability of items is much less. The store does maintain supplies of fruit,canned veggies,ice cream and frozen items but don't expect to see 7 different kinds of ice cream. I prefer the fruit at aldi more then any store at this point. They seem to always be fresh and just right in terms of tastyness. The down side in my opinion is the way the isles are sorted. A beach chair can be across the isle from canned goods and it can be a little hard to find things but overall I enjoy shopping at aldi and will continue to do so. Is also nice being able to see exactly what is available in store via the web. read more

This is a great grocery store. They don't have a lot of fluff here in extra stuff but what they do have is a good selection of what you would expect the grocery store to have. That means they are concentrating on what you need for groceries and not wasting time a lot of extra stuff to try make you buy things you don't need. Most of the items are still in cardboard boxes on the shelving but they have a nice variety of the things that you need. read more

I went to the Aldi on Normandy last week and I would not recommend shopping there to anyone. I had 1 employee almost run into me without even so much as an apology or an "excuse me". The young woman at the register was BEYOND incredibly rude to me during my transaction as well as to a friend before me AND the next customer. It was all I could do to just leave the building and not cause a scene. It's a shame a new chain is coming into the area and establishing themselves with such non-existent customer service or appreciation. I'm only rating them 1 star because I can't proceed to publish this without a rating. All I can say is "thank GOD for Publix"! read more

Aldi always have fruit on sell very cheap an several other items are very reasonable the employees are really nice and helpful I'm there at once a week read more

Shopped for the first time in our new Aldi on Normandy Blvd. What a wonderful experience. The prices were great and so was the selection. We even met the proprietor. Definitely shopping there weekly! read more

Nice store, better than I remembered from my last visit last year. I decided to retry here instead of going 10 extra miles to the Towncenter location. Glad I did. Saved time, money & gas. Check out was quick & the cashier was very friendly and patient... I'm not feeling too well today. The whole store was clean and neat. read more

After hearing a couple of friends mention Aldi, I decided to make a trip to check the Normandy Blvd location out for myself one evening. I deliberately waited until I needed several staple items such as bread, lactose free milk, eggs and crackers, as well as needing meat for a couple of meals I planned to make for company. My first impression was that the exterior was very clean, but seriously in need of better lighting. Carts were available for 25 cents, but luckily a kind lady who was returning one offered hers. The store was clean, and a lady was making sure it stayed that way by edge mopping on every aisle. She was very friendly and helpful. Prices for items like crackers, bread, peanuts and almonds seemed very reasonable. There was a fairly good selection of items in the major categories, far less selection or no item for some more specialized items, like sugar free pudding, or pepperoni. They have their own brand for many items and those items all seem to have a double guarantee, which states if the product is not satisfactory your money will be refunded and the product will be replaced. I spent about $70, and estimate that I saved at least $35 to 40. So bring your own bags, and bring several, you'll need them. read more

I grew up on Aldi in St. Louis, so this company is definitely old school, although its pretty new to Florida. Apparently, Aldi has grown up too. They have wine now, as well as plenty of organic foods. The prices are still great. Their frozen fruit is even cheaper than WalMart! I love their sweet potato chips and turkey peperoni. If you're looking for good food at a good price check out Aldi. Don't forget your bags and quarter though! read more

Love this Aldo. Amazing produce, cheese and wine. Don't miss their frozen steaks

I love Aldi. I used to drive out to Southside to get to Aldi. I was so happy to get one closer to me. Opening was great. Prisitine, well-stocked, running smooth. Well it hasn't taken long for the Westside to yuck it up. My last two visits have been Wal-Mart-level-gross. The floors are covered in sticky dirty messes and the parking lot is littered with ads and yep, diapers! They have been out of items and no one seems to be out restocking as you usually see in an Aldi. It must be the manager because I know Aldi is better than this. read more

Such an awesome store! Great customer service and even better prices! Save-a-lot, publix, and Winn Dixie definitely have competition. I recommend this place, specifically the Normandy location, to anyone!! read more

I never write reviews for stores but I just had to for this one. I don't know what that one guys problem was but the staff couldn't have been more knowledgeable or friendly. I didn't know what the heck I was supposed to do and they took time to explain the check out procedure to me making it very simple. I heard people looking for certain items that were there before and the staff knew exactly what was there or not. The prices couldn't be beat and it was nice to shop somewhere that was not five acres across. I was also impressed with the amount of organic products they carried. I left there with close to $300 in food for $150. And the way I look at it is if they didn't have something I needed I would just order from Walmart for two day free shipping. I'm disabled and can hardly make it around Walmart and they never have charged riding carts. I will be doing a lot of business with Aldis from now on. Love it. read more
