    Checkout lanes that never seem to be open, and a self-service checkout area that is also always closed.
    Michael E.

    I like Lidl in Livingston. As with many people, I was under the incorrect belief that Aldi and Lidl were the same company. This is only relevant because I dislike the Livingston Aldi location, so, I didn't even try Lidl for a while, thinking it would be similar. To be fair, the stores are similar in some ways. They are both German discount grocers, and the layout of the stores is similar. They also both carry European products you don't typically see at other local supermarkets. That's where the similarity ends. While neither store can act as substitute for a supermarket like Shoprite, I enjoy browsing the aisles Lidl in a way that I don't at Aldi. Lidl seems cleaner and better maintained. I like their bakery, and their Lidl brand products seem more to my liking. I also like the "coin-free" shopping carts at Lidl. The one downside to Lidl is the checkout experience. Despite all the checkout lanes and a self-service checkout, I have never been there when there was more than one checkout lane in service. More than once, I've left with my groceries still in the basket because the checkout line stretched to the back of the store. They need to fix this. Beyond that one complaint Lidl is a fun place to shop and in certain cases you can actually save some money.

    Before eating at the nearby Dao Madison, I stopped by Trader Joe's to pick up a few things. This…read moreTrader Joe's looks like it is relatively new (meaning, it doesn't look old and worn). The entire strip mall looks like it underwent renovations not too long ago. Nearby is a Pet shop, Cohen's Optical, Walgreens, Pet Supply shop and more. This Trader Joe's has a similar layout to other locations I have visited before. The aisles are set at angles but like others when you walk in you see produce. Fridges are located against the walls and for the most part the aisles were familiar. Some bits did take me by surprise. For instance, the cereal was by the bread, which differs from other locations I generally go to. Overall, the shelves were neat and stocked relatively well (it was the weekend of a storm so certain items like eggs had been bought out, gotta be ready to make that Storm French Toast!). The rest room was nice and clean, though oddly a shopping cart was blocking it so I had to scooch around it to use it. Check out was quick, with our cashier giving off some very positive energy given how late we were there (roughly around 7PM). A note: There's no Three (or is it four now) buck chuck etc. here. This is one of the locations that does not sell alcohol. That said, they did have a small non-alcoholic drink section which included wine. It's a nice option for those not into alcoholic drinks. I really enjoyed my visit and if I'm in the area I'll happily come back.

    This Aldi location has seriously gone downhill. The food quality is consistently awful, the produce…read moreis often spoiled, and the refrigerators clearly are not being kept at proper temperatures. On top of that, the store is severely understaffed and visibly dirty. I would never return to this location, and honestly, I wouldn't recommend anyone else shop here either. At this point, I don't trust buying food from this store. I'm shocked corporate hasn't stepped in because the condition of this location is unacceptable. The entire store needs a complete overhaul. Truthfully, it feels closer to needing a closure than a renovation. There is another discount grocery store a few miles away that is cleaner, better stocked, and far more trustworthy. Save yourself the disappointment and shop elsewhere.

    Not a huge fan of Aldi and this store just about sums up why with most things being what they are,…read moreI find this store lacks something but I really can't quite figure out what it is. I mean they call it a "Discount Grocery Store" right so maybe I'm putting my expectations too high or something. But I doubt it, instead I think it's alot of cheap no-name stuff which reminds me more of the quality type merchandise that a dollar store would carry. Yup that just about covers that. Well I'm glad we were able to work that one out. Who needs couch time with some Psychiatrist when we can just vent out our thoughts here on this amazing forum through our Reviews? 3 Stars although that's probably 1 more than they deserve, but but I'm still working on my decision making processing process, Hey don't judge me, Lol Come And Get Your Shopping On   if you want

They also have a good selection Indian rice in large and larger bags and fresh vegetables with Indian specialties that are hard to find like curry leaves. In the back is a small take out place. I've only eaten there once, it was fine, but I can't review it. Do you want Pillsbury frozen Nan, paneer, frozen ready to cook meals, desserts, snack packs Bombay style, bottled Indian condiments and a huge selection of spices? You've come to the right place. You just have to be patient and battle through. The selection is quite complete and my trips to Edison or Parsippany to get supplies has diminished. Just remember it's a large selection in a smaller store. One cash register and small counter. I can tell you it's busier on the weekends but during the week, you never know. But if you live in Essex County or nearby, it can be your mainstay of Indian food.

I once walked out from the store after being charged $46 for a pack of chips. I had to walk back in to correct it. They brushed it off by saying that's a mistake. I have been scammed every. single. time. It's putting off to go to this store! Don't fall for the sweet talk, it's their way to distract you.
