Jewel-Osco what can I say it's a grocery store they have everything you want though and the prices aren't too bad people work in their friendly and helpful if you need help finding something. In this supermarket you can find local fruits and vegetables, in addition to the generous offers that it sometimes makes. This supermarket is distinguished from many because it has a stand of articles or souvenirs of Chicago. And the area of ​​sweets, cakes or breads is crazy, not suitable for people who eat gluten-free. Overall, this jewel is a great location. Parking can be frustrating but that's not really Jewel's fault.

One of my favorite grocery store in the area. You can always find everything you need and even more. Staff is always friendly and helpful with picking products. Sometimes it's crowded but it proves that folks prefer to hit this spot for doing shopping as well as me. I didn't have any issues with customer service I mean I was always treated well and in a respectful manner. I really appreciate it. Once I checked my produce was outdated and came back to the store. They did a return and I got a new one. It was quite easy done and I saved my time and aggravation. I' d like to add this is a great and convenient location and store is always clean and tidy. And it didn't usually take forever to be checked out except if it' not a peak time. Definitely gonna support this store in these difficult times and hopefully everything's gonna be fine again soon.

Bought on 05/01/2019 and this has a Best By date of 04/03/2019 - nearly a month old. The sad part - this happens ALL of the time.

Some of the produce was old and they have a butcher that doesn't know how to grind meat, I wanted pork and they didn't have any.

Like everyone else, I waited quite a while for this store to open - hoping that it would bring more…read morechoices in the area (there's actually a lot of grocery options nearby, but the items carried are quite similar). While the opening of this store did bring something different, I'm not sure it was exactly the different that I was hoping for. The big draw of Amazon Fresh is probably in its tech. There's Alexa throughout the store to give you guidance and nice digital signage throughout. This does give the store a more modern feel, though having been to other Amazon Fresh locations, I was hoping that it would feel a bit more futuristic now. However in this regard, Amazon Fresh just feels very similar to whole foods with a bit lower prices and different brand options. In terms of the cart, this is where I wish that it were improved a bit. I'm not sure that the scanning is really significantly better than what they've had in the last few years, which for me makes this process not a smooth and effortless as it could be with even better technology. The initial setup is also still a bit confusing for newcomers who may find the pairing process with the cart a little confusing without someone to point out where to find the links on the interface. Similarly, without a little guidance on the self-checkout process, it can be a bit confusing as well. The food selection here is pretty standard for an Amazon Fresh, which isn't too different from what you'd expect to find at Jewel. There are different pricing levels available, with a lot of the most competitive items being store brand with Prime pricing. Overall selection seems to be quite good in the dry goods and frozen items -- I was a bit disappointed in some of the fresh items as I was hoping for more in-house items in the bakery and a bit larger selection of ready-to-eat items. While they don't have a bad selection, many local grocery stores have a substantial number of cakes, breads, meats, entrees, etc. available to easily pickup and very competitive prices. This alone may keep me from visiting more often as having a variety of these convenient entrees is important for my busy work schedule and fresh bakery items / cakes is important for my busy social schedule. Overall, interesting new option in the area for groceries. While not bad, it doesn't meet my needs as good as I'd hoped at the time of this writing - however the overall store cleanliness, generally competitive prices, and use of newer technologies is something that's still not common at other grocery stores yet.

Ok, so let's get things straight. This is the grand opening. Things are going to be a bit jank. I'm…read morenot deducting points for computer issues or issues with the ambience. Though they are noted. On entry staff greet visitors. I assume this will be normal ongoing activity at least while the store is newer and people are still integrating DashCarts into their lifestyle. Inside of the store is ample space to move even with a high throughput of customers. THROUGHPUT is important here. The store is BUSY but the customer flow is fast and people are quick moving inside. The noise level is above average, Yo Amazon, will ya turn down the ambient music? People are trying to think in here! I can't hear myself think let alone run a register with these noise levels! The self checkout systems are decent though the hardware needs serious work. Touch screens take way too much force to activate. Scan guns don't pick up in store codes easily not for clients nor associates. It doesn't matter who is running the register. These screens and guns need to be calibrated, full stop! Thank goodness the staff here are astonishingly polite and helpful. A staff agent followed us through the entire self checkout and took note of problems with the checkout system. Hopefully these issues will be worked on. Sushi was good and fresh. I'll definitely return for groceries here as long as prices stay competitive and for the love of god. Fix those self checkouts and the scanner guns in general. The whole stores scanners suuuuck

I want to give a shout out to Andrea and Chris (I wish I had last names!)…read more You know what it's like when life gets so stressful that you are struggling to find a reason to make it through the day, and then you discover a sweet treat in the international candy aisle of your local Tony's that is like nothing else you've ever eaten, and it becomes your nightly reward for making it through another day? No? Just me? Well, then humor me. I found that treat (and I'm not identifying it because I don't want my store to run out!!) and I stopped in my Tony's Monday morning to get my week's worth, and despite the fact that I hadn't seen the supply dwindle at all in the months I've been eating these treats (so I just assumed I was the only one who bought them,) AND they had literally boxes full of product every time I came to Tony's, my heart SUNK when I saw the empty shelf. Sometimes when life rains, it pours, and life has been pouring on me, and seeing that one of the few things I had to look forward to was gone, broke the camel's back. I headed toward customer service, and saw a woman standing in front of customer service (she may have been supervising the self checkout) and I approached her on the verge of tears and explained that they were out of the only thing that brought me joy, and she said "well then, we will find it." That was Angela. Thank you, Angela!!! Truly, an angel! I was expecting judgment, not kindness. I was hoping they had just moved the candy to a different display or something but Angela looked into it and they were completely out (and when I'd been in less than a week earlier, there was still a LOT of product that was about a year away from expiration, so I guess I'm NOT the only one who finds this item irresistible!) So Angela recruited a very kind gentleman named Chris who got my information, placed an order with the vendor, and barely 24 hours later I got a text from Chris that the product was at the store waiting for me. My experience with "customer service" on a whole lately has been that no one seems to care anymore. Or that people do the absolute minimum that they can get away with. I cannot remember the last time I had a company truly care if I was happy with my shopping experience. Angela could have just told me to "go look for the product at other Tony's stores" or online ... but instead she made sure the item would be available at my preferred store. Chris could have just told me "they'll be in some time next week, come in and look" .... but instead, he texted me to let me know when they arrived, and because I couldn't make it into the store that day, he made sure to set side the quantity I need. Again, these are all such small things in the grand scheme of life, but Joy and kindness are so important and so hard to come by these days. Because of the kindness of Andrea and Chris, I'm able to find little bits of joy at the end of the day, as I work my way through this difficult chapter in my life.

I have to give the deli 10 stars. My mother-in-law passed away last month, and I needed two deli…read moretrays the same day (large extended Italian family stopping in and out the whole weekend leading up to the funeral.) They were able to create them. I would never usually ask for special treatment or a short order, and when I did, they delivered. I cannot thank them enough for easing the burden on such a hard weekend. I have shopped there since the Prospect Heights store opened. I love the selection, the workers, and the deals. A good store run by good people.

Still decent, but not really special in regards to price compared to just going to a regular restaurant with a taco Tuesday special. The tacos are always pretty good, and the staff always nice. Sadly this last time when we got some chorizo tacos, the chorizo was super dry, but the steak and carnitas was still just as good as usual.

They also have a very good meat counter that is reasonably priced. We mainly go there for their Taqueria. On Tuesdays and Thursdays they have a taco special. And, while the price has gone up with inflation and higher grocery prices, their special is still a bargain - three tacos and a drink for $6.99. They offer counter service (right next to the meat department), and have about 15 tables (a best guess). Their portions are enormous, so go hungry. This time, we went on a Wednesday, so there was no special... Still, the prices are reasonable. My partner had a couple of tacos (Al Pastor and Carne Asada), and I had the Carnitas dinner. They were out of rice, which was fine - I prefer double beans anyway. The dinner comes with rice and beans (or one double), about a pound of meat, and three hot tortillas served in foil. Neither of us were able to finish our meals and ended up taking a lot home. We did get some meat from their counter while there, along with fresh vegetables for a big salad.
