    Good place for snacks. Bought a delicious pecan tart for $3.50 & 3 pieces of fried chicken for $3.

    Sub sandwiches. The hard part is deciding.
    Maureen M.

    Great prices, selection, and sandwiches. They have subs and panini. Plenty of sides (pasta salad, potato salads, etc) to go with them. Especially on hot days like today (93° "feels like" temp). Grab a gelato by the entrance to cool off. The staff is helpful and knowledgeable. I have yet to encounter an employee who doesn't smile back. They may not have everything you need, but I run into that at other stores too.

    One of the 2 backs in my package of "chicken thighs ".
    Frank T.

    I bought a package of chicken thighs. When I opened them up I found two backs in with the five thighs. 1/3 of the product was not what was on the label. The backs are almost all bone. Talk about false advertising and bait and switch. This is a classic example of consumer fraud. How does a store like this get away with this?

    I just had to try this Bubble'r Antioxidant sparkling water drink that was shared by fellow Yelper - Nina H, which prompted this visit to Valli Produce. I actually have a client that works at this particular location in Evanston, but I personally have never visited the inside until now. I visited Valli after visiting Dollar Tree, so I left my vehicle near Dollar Tree which prevented the headache of trying to find a spot closer to Valli. Plenty of parking space even though the lot coincides with several other stores within Evanston Plaza. Now, other than the exterior at Valli, I have to say its layout interior reminds me of Mariano's Fresh Market, which I visit every now and then. My visit to Valli came during the morning hours in admist of the coronavirus (COVID 19) outbreak going on worldwide, so the parking lot as well as the inside of the store was well congested with customers shopping for essentials. At first I could not find the sparkling water drink, but one of the employees that was stocking up items ended up assisting me as well as informing me where it may be located after finding that it was not located in the drink aisle. They had it stocked right next to the register which I always view as a stores way of selling a product quicker because of its lack of sales. I did myself a favor by keeping my visit short and only purchasing what I intended on purchasing which was the drink. However, I was borderline at purchasing either Dog n Suds Root Beer or Sioux City Pure Cane Sugar Root Beer until I found the Bubble'r Antioxidant sparkling water drink, thanks to the employee. To conclude, I had a pleasant experience at Valli Produce, but being that I live on the west side of Chicago, a return at this location in particular is very slim because it is 11 miles away, but if ever in the area leaving work most likely and I needed to pick up grocery items I wouldn't hesitate on stopping in. And besides! Two perks for me visiting are that I can visit the Goodwill or Dollar Tree which both sit within Evanston Plaza as well. ~Blessings~ Thomas G

    What a bargain for ready to go slice papaya and mangoes.

    I love Trader Joe's and have been to many locations in both IL and CA…read more Recently I was looking for some to go foods since I was hosting a brunch for 2: just me and a friend. Parking: the lot is small but I always find a spot towards back of the lot. The tasting section in Trader Joe's is very nice. The tasting section staff member is always a wonderful conversationalist, very engaging. Store has semi wide aisles, nicely decorated and signs in store sharing prices. For brunch I was pleased to buy all items for under $20: Charles Shaw wine, Kale and Broccoli salad, Vanilla Cake and Cookies. My favorite item was the cake! I can't wait to try all the cake flavors. Cashier is so helpful. I find shopping at Trader Joe's an extremely enjoyable experience.

The bad: been going to this location for over a year, I noticed they are clearly shrinking their size for the same price. And I also noticed it for high selling product. The Belgian waffle took 30% down in size (same price) and they did the same for some breads, like the Trader Joe's Tuscan, same price and but it shrinked. It is not just tariffs people, I am well connected in the food industry, greed is also part of the game. I make a good income I can all afford all of those but the last few times were an absolute joke. Trader Joe's we like you but we see also when you become greedy, if you want to keep my business and other that can afford it, you are going to communicate way more clearly these changes. Tariff sucks, I get it but greed too.

I don't love monopolies, unless I am winning at the board game. So I look up cheap grocery stores, and other than Aldi, Food4Less came up. I found one not too far away from me and decided to venture up there. I walked through the doors and some of the first merchandise I see has the Kroger logo. Go figure. Where it comes to this specific grocery store, variety is one of the items that cost it points Their selection was fair, but the deli department is notably small, and there is no visible butcher shop (though there are meats and seafood for sale). You can more or less find everything you would need among these notably very wide aisles, but perhaps some items would require one to go elsewhere. Among the items they had, the store appeared clean and well stocked. When it comes to their prices, while nothing is cheap anymore, especially in Chicagoland, I found their prices were a little lower than average, especially for the eggs. When it comes to the customer service, this could also be a little bit better. While there was no one at the customer service desk, it had a little sign that said that this register is closed. So... if you need to return something or if a price isn't right, what then? You're just out of luck or something? I'd also like to note that this is a place where you bag your own groceries. Not a problem, necessarily, just thought I'd put it out there. Thus, while I appreciate the lower prices, the slightly limited selection and the lack of customer service cost Food4Less a couple points. Still respectable though, and I can still see myself coming back on occasion.
