“This place is amazing! It's mainly Mexican style food. They have a hot food bar. They put it out "Fresh Everyday". If they fill up the food bar at 10am- by 1:30pm. Its only scrapes left because the food on is OMG, good food, very fair portions, and the price is right! Looking forward to returning for a few items.”
“I’ve been shooting at that store more than 10 years and I love it now I would like to share my experience it’s such an amazing one stop to shop they have everything from the Middle East and more their price very reasonable compared to other places everything fresh the store very clean. The owner are wonderful. I recommend everybody to visit a shop from there.i wish Google has more than 5 starts but I will throw another 5 starts from me as a chef thanks allot brother’s grocery store”
“Often enough, I dine-in and get the daily special. Food is always fresh and fantastic and while you are waiting, they will offer samples of soup or other culinary delights. This time we ordered catering for a retiree party. 2 full trays of beef, 1 full tray of meatballs, 1 full tray of smoked beans and 1 full tray of roasted veggies. It came with all the buns, mild and hot giardiniera and roasted peppers. Everything was delicious. All trays were empty in 30 minutes! Thanks guys!”
“Incredible! The Sausage King of Chicago! Ordered the jalapeño sausage, hot italian sausage, and ghost pepper sausage for Da Bears tailgate party. Beyond amazing! Sal, one of the staff members, was incredibly friendly and very generous! Thanks again Sal! - I will 100% be back to try everything you guys sell!!”
“Amazing factory store of Polish meats, deli, and sausage. Everything at discounted factory prices. Very very fresh. On the weekend you can also get things such as condiments, fresh bread, and sweets.”
“Great place to get your favorite meats and not only. They have a nice variety of smoked meat, smoked sausage and even sweets. The owners always greet you with a smile on their face and it's always a pleasure to stop by. And BTW, they also deliver and ship cross country. I highly recommend Saravale Meat Market”
“Cool place. They serve cold and hot food for lunch. Have a deli and cut meats. There is a frozen section also. The prices are kind of steep, but it is Hinsdale. Hopefully the stuff I got will be good. I'm sure I'd go back here again.”
“I moved to VP about 5 years ago from the northside, and I'm so happy we found this place....I'm proud to say its become our go-to. Not only does Mike's have amazing high quality meat, but they have a great deli too and the staff makes it even better. Since day 1, i'm always greeted in the kindest way - I even know some by first name basis which is always a small town dream, right?! I should've made a review a long time ago but I am now because on Saturday I bought a 5 1/2 lb corned beef brisket for St Patrick's day to make my husband, and I was really conflicted on the best method to make it since it was on the larger end (from my experience of cooking). I already procrastinated in the morning and probably should've started earlier but I decided to call up Mikes this morning for advice and wow - they really helped me. Google wasnt helping me, everyone has different methods, or recipes of which way is better and i wanted to get it just right especially since this was not a cheap cut of meat!Two gentlemen gave me advice on 2 methods, and they literally gave me all the tips and best ways to handle from their own experiences. Man, it really made me so happy to support a business like Mikes and we will always continue to do so. They really care, and always take the time to help out their customers in store and over the phone. Thank you Mikes meat market! You guys are truly a gem in VP.”
“I've driven past this market a bunch of times and decided to pop in on a whim to see what it's all about. I was very pleasantly surprised - not only do they have an abundance of produce, they had a sizable selection of specialty produce. In addition to produce, they had meat, a deli counter, a cheese section, and the biggest array of ethnic foods that I've seen at a non specialty grocery store. I will definitely be keeping this market top of mind for future recipes and gatherings.”
“I ordered a whole white fish for stuffing and asked that the guys remove the bones. And this was done to perfection - nary a bone in the finished baked fish that was just so fresh and delicious. While in to pick up the pre-ordered fish, I spied crab cakes in the display. I rather offended the guys by asking if they were good. My company are a fussy lot but everthing I've had from Carnivore has been super, so I took three 1/4 pound cakes. And they were literally AMAZING. Scant filler, all crab, subtley seasoned. With just a little browning in olive oil and warming through at 350F for 15 minutes, served on mixed greens, this was a perfect starter for the meal. Thank you, Carnivore, for delivering - again!”
“I adore this store for its flash frozen, portioned meets and seafood. The staff is helpful and attentive and the store offers quite a staggering selection of ordinart and unusual meats, fish, deserts, seafood, appetizers, etc. Very good prices for the quality, and they alsi deliver!”
“First visit. Checked out prepared foods. Bought a few meats and potatoes. Have not tried yet. Friendly and quiet environment. Reminds us of Florida shopping centers.”
“I saw the sign for the market and thought let me see what it is all about. I love small local stores. The store is a lot bigger inside then I thought it would be. The store offers a deli, butcher/meat counter, and the general store items. The line was very long at the time I went in so I didn't buy anything but I did note that the prices are somewhat higher than I expected. I think as far a small local market it is nice as an option especially for deli and meats. Overall, I will definitely go back when I have more time to wait in line or at a time it isn't so busy. I think I would like to try the meat and deli items for my next BBQ.”
“Great little market with many hidden gems like rosewater, orange blossom water, dates, and halva. A huge selection of tea and coffee, sweets, and spices. I will be doing more of my shopping here, this is a pastry chef's dream!”
“Just wanted to drop you a line that my wife and I used your delicious pepperoni on our homemade skillet pizza on Saturday - the best tasting one we ever made!Your pepperoni is the only pepperoni we want to use.Keep up the good work!!!”
“I couldn't believe I hadn't rated them yet. I've been coming here for over a decade now and love this place so much. I regularly pick up perogies, and various soups and salads. They have a good selection and reasonable prices.”
“High quality meat, wide selection, competitive prices, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Not much else you could ask for in a local butcher shop. I’ll definitely be back soon”
“I go to Adrian's for everything. They've got all the protein rich food I need to gain muscle and all the drinks and chips that make me remember my time in Mexico. Whether I'm preparing food for myself or for a party or just trying to win the lottery, Adrian's is where I go.”
“There tacos change they over stuff my tacos and the meat was not cut for tacos,I had a chorizo taco like the chorizo wasent cut of the skin and the other tacos pastor and asada were really shisty so I trough away all 3 tacos and had the decency to swallow the pride whit a coke”
“Hidden Gem!!! I make Rouladen for Christmas every year. Finding a butcher to cut the meat I need every year is difficult, and chain grocery stores don't usually have the cut of meat I need, or they won't cut it. My moms recipe calls for sirloin tip roast in 1/4 thick strips. I called Blue Ribbon Meat Market, talked to the butcher, and described what I needed. He said he had the meat, and could cut it. When I got there he showed me a couple roasts he thought were good for what I needed, and let me pick the one I wanted. He trimmed the fat and showed me the 1st cut to be sure it was what I wanted. The roast is perfect. Since the recipe calls for bacon, I got enough + some for my recipe too. The customer service is above and beyond, the shop is very clean (something I look for in a butcher shop), and the staff is wonderful, and they refer to you by name, which makes you feel like they've known you for years. The customers who shop there are so nice and welcoming. My granddaughter made a few friends there. They have holiday meal kits if anyone needs something. The meat selection is really good and affordable. I was eyeballing some of the steaks before leaving, and I definitely will be back. I highly recommend this hidden gem.”
“Place is OK. 2 slot inside dock can get even tighter if the first guy goes in a little cockeyed. Works more along the lines of first come first served. Don't get there too early because they will still be loading their own trucks and you'll just be wasting your time. Guys there are easy enough to work with. If it wasn't for the tight inside dock they would get 5 stars.”

“Easter March 31, 2024 EASTER!! I had the most wonderful experience and it is because of your staff. First of all, I should have gone to Caputo's first for my Easter dinner. Mariano's was sold out and everywhere else was too expensive.I ran into an employee named Chef Joey. Chef Joey was outstanding in every way. Joey listened to what I wanted to buy and spend, he offered suggestions and came through for me and my family.The ham, beans and different potatoes were a huge hit. All the food was packaged hot and fresh. My only mistake was that I did not come to Caputo's in Norridge first.Chef Joey is one of your finest stars at Caputo's. Please recognize this fine gentleman.Thank You Caputo's!Mark O'Brien”
“I came in for a leg of lamb for Easter.Everyone was so pleasant and helpful. The price was the best by far. I saw they also had lamb shoulder so I went with that. It was frozen and when I defrosted it overnight in my fridge and it thawed out, it looked great and had no smell to it - so it was fresh. We had the lamb as part of our dinner tonight and everyone loved it.I can understand what some have mentioned about the smell however, that's been the case for any butcher shop I've been to... unfortunately it seems to be in the air.The produce looked okay, not the greatest but I came in for something else.While checking out with my purchases, the staff were curteous and kind. Overall my experience was great.”
“The best Irish corned beef in Chicago! Quality meats. Great value for catering big parties. My wife loves their Irish soda bread. Family-owned business, very friendly and welcoming. 5 stars.”

“This spot is def a hidden gem. Not surprised that it was not found on yelp. When you walk in through the front it is a store front, but the real magic happens in the back. Everything from menudo, to home made tamales, to tacos can be ordered in the back. If you enjoy real home cooked Mexican food this is the place for you. I started off with a simple but delicious bean taco. It sounds easy but there's an art to it and when I tried to ask how they made the beans the answer was simple "secret recipe." Then I moved to the main dish, menudo. What a joy that was, simmering and quite delicious and then I finished the meal with homemade tamales. Guys if you're looking for authentic Mexican food this is the spot for you. Ask for Lola when you walk in. Like I said think of this spot as a speak easy of food, hidden gem is in the back. You can also ask Lola about catering.”
“Your allowed to grab your own carnitas there typically a line for them on the weekends. I recommend supporting your local grocery stores and there foods like the cooked carnitas here. Very reasonble on price per pound we spent about 16 bucks for 2.lbs. we will be back because the carnitas here were well seasoned and cooked.”
“This place is the best! I needed 18 chickens (yes 18!) of similar weight and size for a rotisserie bbq event. I requested and happily received exactly what I needed. The quality of the chickens was wonderful. The staff is very friendly and the store has a wonderful vibe. These folks are serious about great food. Cannot wait until I get try some other dishes, quite especially their greek marinaded lamp chops! No disappointments here!”
“It's a distributor for local restaurants that also will sell to the public I was curious about this place and stopped in not too much signage for the entrance but went in through the parking lot and walked through to an office area where a very friendly person was sitting. After asking about the place it seems you can get a variety of beef pork and chicken. I was there for some Italian sausage and got a 5 pounds of it which was just made and had good flavors. So when the time comes for a bigger order I'll share my findings”
