My review is for the Deli Department, and the Party Platters they make up for parties or special events. Check this menu of delicious trays they can make up for you:

My fiance and I decided to have a wedding in our home with just a few immediate family members. We were thinking trying to decide if after the ceremony we: took the group ( 9 plus ourselves) to a restaurant, or contacted a caterer, or prepared food ourselves. After finding out the costs of the first two choices ( yikes! ), and eliminating the last one because we wanted to free ourselves to enjoy the day, we decided to ask both Save-on Foods and Sobeys Delis for a menu of what they could make up for us in the way of party trays. Our local Sobeys was not able to create all the items on their brochure, including a couple that we wanted, so we went to the Ellerslie Road Save On to talk with the Deli counter manager, and found her SO helpful, even going back to bring out the different trays so we could judge the actual size that we were seeing in their brochure, and even giving us and estimate of how many people we could expect each to serve. We chose 2 Antipasto trays and one Mediterranean, as well as Desert and Rolls tray from the Bakery. These trays had better meats, cheeses and exras that we were looking for--- we wanted a more gourmet selection.
ARE WE EVER GLAD WE ORDERED FROM THIS STORE!
We honestly have to say that the trays staff prepared for us for July 12/15 looked BETTER than the brochure pictures. Our guests were asking which caterer we had engaged, and kept remarking on the quality assortment of fine finger foods. On our table, they looked fantastic. The cost was really reasonable considering the quality and amount of food we got, and we had a LOT left over.
So, in conclusion, I want to recommend Party Trays from this store, and want to thank the staff for their artistry in creating these delicious additions to our wedding that fed our guests perfectly. Hats off to the Store and Deli Managers for providing customers with such high quality food items and helping make our wedding day SO perfect. We will continue to recommend Ellerslie Road Saveon Deli staff to our friends, and definitely will call on them again ourselves. :) read more
