There is a reason it's a Toledo staple. My husband's grandparents owned it years ago when it was still a REAL grocery store where they had fresh butchered meats and kosher options.

It's over priced and rinky dink. The service counter is old and looks dirty. Lord knows how old the meats and cheeses are in there. We walked out with only a bag of pork rinds which were over done and not good either. Ten thumbs down!!!

Whatever the owner said on FB, he's apologized for, so let's review the store, not comment on what the owner said. He who is without fault, cast the first stone.

this is not your every day grocery store. I would never go here to get my weekly groceries, but I…read morewill go here to do some rubbernecking and bargain hunting. They have some weird stuff here. Erie, Michigan is not exactly a booming metropolis or Haven for culturally diverse food, but tucked away unassuming off the highway is a hidden gem known aw Erie IGA. I was able to find some eastern European Staples and oddities. Think big lots meets a flea market for groceries and booze. They do have fresh produce and fresh meats, (and typically even fresh pizza) but a lot of what they have is odd overstocked nearly expired items. Not to complain, because expiration dates are just dates that say best used by... They aren't truly expired. And as a bargain hunter, I love paying half the amount for food that is still perfectly fine. Let's talk booze, beer, and wine. This place is staffed Floor to ceiling in one section full of bargain and bizarre. alcohol options. If you have never been here, you have to go in to understand what I am talking about. When I throw parties, this is my stop for a way to cheaply pump my guess full of drunken delight. They also have some houseware stuff sprinkled in between the nearly expired freezer food, and the Eastern European soup options. My husband and I spent over an hour just looking at everything. We went in to pick up some cabbage on our way home from an event a few years back and left with $100 worth of food and alcohol that looks more like $300 worth. I'm not sure if the owner is Russian or Ukrainian, but he was cool is hell. I picked up the best frozen spinach pies I have ever had. They had blitzes and my favorite kosher split pea soup in the freezer. We try to go back every three months or so even though it's completely out of our way just so we can see what cool finds they have procured. The days of small grocery stores are numbered, but every time I see one I go in. And usually, I keep going back. Maybe it's the nostalgia, maybe it's the 1950s housewife in me, but I love a good small town grocery store.

Oklahoma Joe's (KC Joe's now). Jack Stack. This is my baseline. FiveStar delivers. They blend Southern barbecue with soul food, and it works. This is not napkin food. My kids eat it with their shirts off, paper towel roll on standby. Food that leaves evidence and doesn't apologize. The sauce is made in-house and you know it immediately. It doesn't memic Texas, Kansas City, or North Carolina. It's balanced, warm, layered, with a subtle bite that keeps you wanting more. A family recipe, not a regional imitation. The ribs are fantastic and clearly the star. I usually order brisket, the true test of any BBQ joint, but today I went with the pulled pork and it slapped. Paired with their house-made coleslaw that isn't overly sweet (looking at you, Baby Rays), it complements instead of competes. The fryer was down and I wasn't able to get fries. They suggested the beans instead. THANK GOODNESS. These were so delicious, my oldest son took the rest from me. My only complaint: Mogy needs to bottle and sell that sauce. Keeping it to himself feels selfish. The world deserves better.

I got a big order of rice, beans, tortillas, chips and salsa, and some guac. Boring, I know, but I like to make my own mini tacos. The flavors were on point, especially the beans and the salsa. My one small gripe was that I had to pay for the chips and salsa, while my mom's partner who spent about the same amount on his burrito, got them for free. Might have just been a mistake but I thought it was odd. The entrance was through a small market which was interesting. It was a surprise when I got to the dining area and the ceiling opened up into a much larger space complete with gorgeous murals. Would be happy to return if I'm in the area again.
