Carnivore in Oak Park…read more This is a butcher shop and fish market that also sells sandwiches I can't really decide if the old time decor is by design or if the place is really needing an upgrade. I actually think it's the latter. It's a lot smaller than I imagined with very limited seating. We went here for the grilled salmon sandwich. We had seen many online reviews saying it is amazing. They make the sandwiches right in front of you, so you know that they are fresh. We took our sandwiches to go and by the time we got them home , they were cold. The fries traveled well, but again they were also cold bu the time we got home. The grilled salmon sandwiches were very good, but not great , and I really would have loved to have eaten it warm. Prices are on the high side for the butcher meats. But I guess you should expect that since they are an artisanal butcher. I did not like the look of some of the meats in the cases. Would we go back? Maybe to try the Bacon Burger. But we would definitely recommend eating your food in the butcher shop and not taking it to go. I have just found out that that are moving into Carnival Grocery in Oak Park.

I needed something very specific for a recipe, it's so hard to find guanciale to make carbonara!…read more Carnivore was about the 10th place I called and they right away let me know they had plenty! As soon as I walked in, I saw so many goodies I knew I was taking home. They had a very well curated selection of fancy condiments from small makers, rare ingredients, and the highest quality version of many every day foods! Everyone behind the counter was so friendly and knowledgeable. I had to try one of their sandwiches and got the salmon po boy at their recommendation. It was really well seasoned and super fresh with a very generous slice of fish on it. Definitely coming back for another one next time I'm in the area! Thank you so much for great service and products!

Pros: Polish food…read more Cons: Need more polish food. I'm so glad I have had the fortunate pleasure of being exposed to different foods from various cultures. Polish sausages bring a certain joy to my heart that is unmatched by almost any other encased meat. I am so glad to have found Celina's Deli. It's a small, local business with many imported Polish goods. They have ready-to-eat sausages hanging behind the counter, raw sausages in the deli counter, fresh sauerkraut, fresh pickles, home cooked soups, potato pancakes, the list goes on. One of my favorite treats are these mini croissant-looking items with a sweet kind of marmalade inside. omg, those things go straight to my hips! This is. a really nice place with all kinds of Polish goods that were once abundant in Chicago but seem harder to find. Celina's is a treasure for regular groceries and grabbing a meal when you're on the go. Please visit, you won't regret it.

Carniceria and Supermarket Torres Fresh Market Taqueria - 5310 W 25th St, Cicero, IL…read more Visited on October 31, 2024, and was disappointed by the taqueria experience. The service was unorganized and slow, with several staff members crowded behind the counter, seeming to bump into each other and struggling to keep things flowing smoothly. The confusion impacted the quality of service, which could definitely use improvement. I ordered two tacos--one carne asada and one chicharrón in green sauce. The flavors were average, but the portion sizes felt small for the price. They use very small tortillas, which doesn't justify the high cost. I paid $10 for two tacos and a small horchata, which seemed excessive for what I received. This place has potential if they make improvements: better service coordination, reasonable pricing, and larger tortillas for their tacos would make a big difference. As it stands, I don't think I'll be returning anytime soon.

Torres is a great but small supermarket. While it cannot compare to the local Cermak Produce in…read morevariety, it's still a great reliable store with fresh produce and fantastic prices and sales. It's deli and meat dept are small but with a great turnover. The meat is just as fresh and well cut as Cermak Produce. But the best part of Torres is it's tiny indoor taquería run and serviced by an all women staff at the time of this review. Everything is made from scratch and right in front of you (if you like to sit at the counter.) The typical americanized Mexican food is made here (tacos, burritos and the like) with daily and weekly plate and combo specials advertised with large bilingual signs and photos. The only bad thing is if you aren't paying in cash you have to go pay at the customer service counter. For whatever reason, the restaurant itself doesn't have a card swipe. Boo-urns, I say. Parking is kinda a problem. While the small parking lot right next to the store usually fills up during busy peaks not many people are aware that there is another parking lot midway down the block. The problem is not many folks are willing to walk the measly 25 feet of sidewalk to the front door (present company included) so during peak hours the tiny parking lot is a hassle. So if you want to visit a smaller grocery store with amazing prices and grab a bite to eat, Torres is the place to be.

Nice small space with plenty to offer in its grocery aisles. Easy to find parking on the day I went. Definitely making Capri a part of my rotation.
