Slightly off the beaten path, I surmise it is well known to Darien residents. The layout is somewhat unusual -- you enter into the dairy aisle, with produce at the other end of the building. Make sure you try the prepared foods -- the chicken scarpariello meatballs are our favorite item so far. Soups were excellent -- chicken matzo ball, sausage gumbo and carrots ginger all pleased. Pulled pork was savory but could have used some sauce. At Easter they were sampling delicious ham and scalloped potatoes. Fresh meats appeared to be of high quality, I can vouch for the hamburger patties. The fish counter is small and is not attended by a fishmonger. I've only had free samples of the baked goods so far, but they look great. Produce is solid, but as expensive as you would expect from a gourmet market in Darien. Service from the counter folks and check out was uniformly excellent.

The store is clean and well stocked for the most part although there are items missing every time I go. The biggest problem is The Wi-Fi. This matters because we store all the grocery list on their app and when you're in the store, their Wi-Fi sucks. It's unreliable and all the coupons are digital which means you have to have Wi-Fi to be able to save the coupon while you're there. I mean it used to be horrific and now it's only bad. I was able to go to the front of the store and get a signal and get onto my app, but it's less than ideal and they're aware of it and they've been aware of it For over a year. And don't tell me it's not fixable because that's bullshit. In my opinion, the best option is Shoprite, which is a first class store. You feel like you're at a high-end store but paying regular supermarket prices.

I also love that the parking lot was dedicated specifically to Wegmans so there was no additional stores making it a complicated situation.

I am here on a trip now and have noticed the location has gone a bit downhill. I can't go into all the details but it's an overall impression based on a few interactions with employees, the way food products are displayed, the breakfast area looking very sloppy with equipment and supplies left around as well as other impressions. I wonder if management has either recently changed or has it just been a slow slippage. Either way, it's a bit disappointing but I will continue to go there out of necessity.

The bag I had was no longer available but she helped me select a new similar reusable bag. It's these small acts of kindness and going the extra mile that makes it a part of the community.

Once again, they have repeated the same dishonest behavior. Every time we have brought whole turkeys to be cut, the price has increased from $4 last year to $7 this year. What really angers me is not just the higher price but also the fact that they have been keeping parts of the turkeys such as wings, necks, and other parts without our knowledge. When I tried to address this issue with a manager like I did last year, the cashier rudely dismissed me, claiming it was not her concern and hung up. They overcharge you and then proceed to keep parts of the turkey you brought in, essentially charging other customers for what they have taken from you without consent. Despite receiving an apology and assurance from management last year that this would not happen again, they have repeated the same deceitful practice. It is concerning to think about how many other customers they might be doing this to. Essentially, they are stealing the meat that belongs to their customers after agreeing to cut it. This year, they are charging $7 for a service that cost $4. When you take your meat to their store for cutting, be sure to keep a close eye on them to prevent any of your meat from being taken without your knowledge. SMFH.

Pro tip for anyone trying to avoid the absolute chaos of the main lot: pull in using the George Ave entrance and park over there. It's a total game-changer for getting in and out fast. Most people know this place because it was on Ripley's Believe it or Not! back in the day for being the world's largest dairy store, but it's honestly just an institution. Right when you walk in, you see that huge stone tablet with their customer service rules--basically saying the customer is always right, and if they're wrong, re-read rule number one. Supposedly the founder, Stew Sr., put it up after arguing with a lady over some sour eggnog decades ago until his wife checked him. It definitely stuck, because in two decades of shopping here, I have literally never had a bad customer experience. The staff is always so solid. They have everything--a great bakery (the Apple Cider Donuts are legendary), a massive seafood section with fresh lobster rolls daily, a killer meat department where I usually grab lamb steaks, and a seasonal garden center and "Little Farm" with goats and ducks that the kids love. They even have a food truck outside now. But if I'm being completely real? Half the time I roll up here, I am solely there for one thing: the hot bar. They have the absolute best wings around, specifically the Spicy Italian ones. I will literally drive over just to grab a container of those wings for lunch. A few quick heads-up things: download their app before you go because the loyalty program rewards actually add up pretty quick, and definitely remember to bring your own bags. Oh, and grab a soft serve on your way out. Essential Norwalk experience.

It feels hidden in the sense that you could drive right past it and miss it, but once you find it, it is absolutely worth it. There is parking out front which is a plus. Inside, it is exactly what you would expect from a classic mom and pop Italian deli. Small, warm, welcoming, decently lit, and clean. They also have a huge menu with tons of options, not even counting everything available at the deli counter. I took my time looking over the menu and the staff was patient while I decided. I ordered a sausage, egg, and cheese with black pepper on a wedge and a bacon, egg, and cheese lightly toasted on white bread. The wedge was the highlight. Big portion, very filling, and everything tasted fresh and high quality. It was cooked and put together really well. My only small critique is that the bread was very soft and the eggs were falling out a bit, but I also did not ask for it toasted so that may be on me. The bacon, egg, and cheese on white bread was good as well. The only downside was that it was very lightly toasted, almost not toasted at all, and it used bacon pieces instead of strips. Overall, this is an excellent local deli with quality food, generous portions, and a welcoming feel. I would definitely recommend stopping by, and I will absolutely be back.
