    I'm a fan of the Market District concept. I love the large stores with a huge variety. I can't however give them 5 stars because for so many items they are more expensive than other places. There are of course deals to be had, and the prepared food selection is usually pretty great. Cashiers and other staff are always super friendly and helpful, although I have started using scan and go. There is a Starbucks, dry cleaner (taken off site), and bank branch here as well as a pharmacy, so you can check a lot of items off your to do list pretty quick. Parking is ample and the carts rarely have bad wheels. Be sure to stop by for a shopping adventure soon!

    Nice clean store. Good selection of somewhat overpriced produce. I usually go there for the beer and wine.

    I absolutely LOVE the Market District in Strongsville. So, I just assumed that Market Districts would be similar. Well, you know what they say about assuming..... The pros of this location? They have a nice outdoor patio and plenty of parking. The flow of this parking lots is fantastic and it is in a great location. Easy to get in and out of too. I love the fit and finishes on the inside of this place too. Very upscale and clean. Sadly though, overall I was thoroughly disappointed with this place. It is small, has an absolutely horrible setup and their cafe is really lacking. Their alcohol section is about 1/2 the size of Strongsville and their prepared foods section pales in comparison. To top it all off they close their top floor dining area of the cafe on the weekends. WHO CLOSES THINGS ON THE WEEKENDS? We stopped in to eat and had no where to warm up our prepared foods. We had to ask an employee where the microwave is. They they told us to quietly sneak upstairs to use the microwave and then come straight back down. Am I a child in school? This is like a murder mystery dinner waiting to happen! Dude, this location makes me sad. If I am going to pay the premium prices that Market District charges....then I want to feel like I am getting my Benjamin's worth. BOOO!

    Giant Eagle Market District in Solon is the biggest Giant Eagle I have ever been to. I usually shop at the one in Bedford but decided to check this one out instead because I needed to get a cake for my niece and nephew's birthday party and I thought they would have more options because I heard it was a larger store. Boy was I right. The employees working in the bakery department were extremely helpful- working with me to figure out the right cake for my last-minute party. They were even able to decorate it on the spot. Another thing I really appreciated about this GiantEagle was the fact that they had actual living cashiers. Not just the do it yourself lanes. I'm so tired of having to scan my own groceries. I'm not lazy I'm just slow and not very good at it! And my cashier must be really good at Tetris because she managed to put over $300 worth of groceries into six bags. I was impressed and it made loading and unloading the car super easy. cred to Daphane C.!

    Woah. Black truffles, escargot, caviar, live crawfish, dry aged meat and a cranberry preserve made by Trappist Monks of the St. Joseph's Abbey sit next to 5 pound bags of generic Fruit Loops and 2 pound jars of Fluff. This is a grocery store unlike any other. It really does have it all. Once you enter the doors to this place, expect to be sucked into perusing for at least an hour, maybe more. Coming here is an event. The mundane duty of grocery shopping suddenly turns into an exercise of sensory stimulation. Straight through the entrance is the produce section, off to the left is a beverage bar offering coffees, juices and smoothies. Each grocery cart is equipped with a cup holder, so take your frothy drink with you on your venture. Next is a cafe/bar area where you can order food to eat-in or take-with. Pizza's & burgers are made to order. A bar exists here that features a dozen drafts where growlers are filled. You can pay for all of this here, without standing in the regular checkout lines. Next up is the sushi bar, olive bar, deli, emporium of cheese and charcuterie counter. Again, the choices here are plentiful. Best in the area as a matter of fact. Imported cheese from all around the world with various levels of stinkiness and a charcuterie counter that offers dry cured meats like "gabagool" (capicolla), mortadella, sopressata, speck, pancetta and prosciutto. There is no longer a need to stuff your suitcases with delicacies bought in Italy or France. Market District has it all. I was floored with the selection. The bakery is next on our tour. Breads, baked goods and candy galore. We didn't spend too much time in this area because something else caught our eye. A live food demonstration was going on nearby. I thought I was at the IX Center's Fabulous Food Show. This isn't just a grocery store. There was even live entertainment! Then around the corner, the fish department featuring live crawfish (sold out upon our visit), escargot, branzino and other exotic fish I never knew existed. The selection here really was awesome. Next were cases of fresh cut meat. A display of various cuts including dry aged beef caught my eye. The displays were clear, well lit and designed to tempt. Don't come here hungry. The butcher and fish monger behind the counter were more than willing to help and chat about what they offer and how best to prepare said protein. After going around the perimeter, this is usually where I hit the dairy (plenty of local products offered including Snowville) and then check-out, but the middle aisles were unusually attractive. We went down each and every aisle. Exotic brands not carried by any other grocer in the area were present. Ever stumble across an unknown ingredient in a recipe? Yeah, they have it here. The ethnic specific aisles were vast and well represented as well. It really was an experience to travel down each aisle just to be amazed at the offerings. Some jars and canned goods completely unrecognizable because of the native language still on the labels. Real authentic shizz. In addition to food, be sure to visit the beer section. Hop Snobs would be floored with the selection. Single bottles are sold here in addition to sixers. Did I mention they also have a full liquor department? Like I said, this store has it all. Including a children's play area (titled "Eagle's Nest") to drop your kid off while you shop. There's also a pharmacy, health/beauty department, bank and dry cleaner here. Checking out was a breeze. I counted 24 checkout lines, so they were certainly able to handle the crowd during this opening weekend. Hopefully after the grand opening excitement wears down, it'll remain as pleasant of an experience as it was on Sunday. Despite the crowd, it was well staffed and things ran smoothly. If it's still like this 6 months from now, I'll be sure to bump my rating up to a full-fledged 5 stars.

    My feeling is that this store is a cross between Giant Eagle and Whole Foods. I'm sure this was there intent, so I'd say they were successful in meeting their goal. Bright produce and sunflower plants greet you as you walk into the store. They have a large produce department. There are also food stations/restaurants in which you can order hot food items and dine in at comfortable tables. I bought a pulled pork sandwich with a side of mixed grilled veggies. It was very fresh and tasty. The staff behind the prepared food counter was accommodating with samples when I asked about the available sauces for the sandwich. The staff was very friendly, and although there still may be a learning curve on some things, they didn't let it show. There was a young man, twenty-something, stocking items in the dairy area and he was genuinely happy to be working at this establishment. How refreshing! Speaking of the Dairy Department, I like that everything was in coolers with doors. There was a sign on some of the doors that read: "Colder Milk - Warmer You." It seems like grocery stores are iceboxes anymore, so I appreciated this feature. While there, I sampled 3 different offerings from the in-house demo kitchen and they were yummy: mussels in white wine garlic butter, eggplant rolatini and a turkey roll-up. They provide recipe cards for all of the items that are sampled. I've attached a number of photos that give a good idea of the variety of bulk items they carry: Mushrooms, Salts, Baked Goods, Salad and Antipasto Bar. In addition to these items, you can also make your own peanut butter or dispense infused vinegars or a choice of honeys into bottles they provide. Haven't done that yet, but it looks interesting. It's definitely worth checking out.

    Huge let down and disappointment. I was first excited to learn of Solon being a Market District site, figuring they'd first go with the new Broadview Heights store. During construction I figured there's no way they'll have the floor space for anything close to what they have at Robinson in Pittsburgh and I was correct. They lack in space, product offerings, quality, customer service and technology. They don't offer anything at a discount compared to others, and they don't offer anything truly unique that you couldn't get elsewhere...so why bother? Unless of course you're a huge fan of frozen baked goods made in Pittsburgh, trucked to Solon, and finished to appear as if this was point of origin. This store will have to appeal to a certain kind of consumer to survive. They're 24-hrs now, but expect them to close at midnight at some point or scale back hours significantly. Anyone that knows Solon, or Cleveland for that matter knows that 24-hr locations do not do well here. My grandmother hates the new place, says it's too big. So they've alienated their loyal locals, and they've alienated anyone that's experienced the true Market District store at Robinson, PA, by not being big enough. Here's a perfect opportunity for Marc's, Heinen's, Miles Farmers Market, and WalMart to grab precious market share. I think it's yet again where the Cleveland version of a franchise gets the shaft. Right now the place is crowded. Expect to wait for counter service as they lack a number calling system or even a stantion for some order to queue up. Parking's a nightmare too.

    Ahh, memories of Prague, courtesy of Giant Eagle!

    This is a large grocery store with an equally large variety of grocery and cooked food items. They have a Starbucks inside, just in case the second Starbucks 700 feet away is too far. I love the expansive ethnic food section and I'm relieved to see that the "Mexican" section is not limited to Doritos, like how some lesser chains have humored all of us, LOL. The beer and wine section is huge. They have the most affordable dry cleaning in the area. Best of all, I love the fuel perks off the Giant Eagle card.

    Foodie Friday collage... most weeks are 6 samples for $6... Valentine's Day was $15

    Foodie Friday Review from 6pm to 8 pm each Friday you can pay $6 ($15 on special holidays) and get 6 samples from the catering department and the wine / beer offerings Staff is VERY friendly and knowledgeable. Some weeks are a single vinyard... one week a month there are beer options... most selections are on sale... some of the food samples have recipes and are only available through the catering department. Each week generally starts with a cheese course and ends with dessert with a soup somewhere in the middle. The only downside is the wine steward station... they don't remove the chairs so you have to reach around people sitting at the bar to get the 4th station sample. 1 star removed We have also tried to order through the Deli kiosk at the cosmetic entrance only to have them not be able to get our order done even after taking an hour to wander the 6 for $6 and then shop the grocery store! The deli has a great Italian cured meat section... which is a shame... it is almost impossible to get help. 1 star removed The overhead shots that others have uploaded are from the second floor meeting room that they now use on Friday for the dessert station and have a cashier on hand with extra bottles so you can purchase the varieties you sampled easily.

    Finally found the case of Malbec we have been looking for for months! Thank you to the wonderful staff!
