“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!”
“A wonderful place, you will find everything you need, and wonderful employees who will greet you with a smile and bid you farewell with the same, God willing, and I will always be a customer, with reasonable prices.”

I got some 1 1/2" .New York strips, some of their hot dogs, some of their breakfast sausages, a beef shank, and some of their sole filets stuffed with scallops and crabmeat. Also, a sample of their mild Italian sausage. Everything was high quality delivered with the best service. Highly recommend.”

“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.”
“High quality meat, awesome individual running the place and awesome prices. You do have to purchase in bulk but if you have a family then trust me you will never shop anywhere else. I've been coming here for a very long time(close to 2 decades, yeah I'm that old!). Ali and his team have been running this place forever and its been family owned for God knows how long. I'm unsure if you need a tax i.d. to shop here but I've been coming by well before that requirement. Huge selection of high quality halal meats, but you have to order it so don't just show up. Call first! I'll be back over and over again. This Yelp page hasn't been updated in forever it seems but this place is still open, right off of cortland and route 53.”
“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!!!”
“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.”
“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.”
“Great prime meats...awesome service... everyone is very knowledgeable and customer oriented . .they been supplying us at the grill on the alley for a couple of years...”
“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.”

“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.”
“Drivers coming here to unload, best way I’ve found is to turn north on Nórdica Ave. That would be left if you are coming from Harlem Ave and then back to the side of the building. This way you have easy access to get back on to Harlem. Also they are open at 4am, but won’t unload you until the forklift drivers come. Unloading will be off the street. I hope this helps.”
“Bought some barbacoa and carnitas and was a great find they were fresh and delicious and I've had carnitas from here to all over Chicago and these were as good as the best I've had or better probably go back for more this weekend if you are into this Mexican comfort food this is the place to go”
“Give Kyle a raise! Within two sentences he both read my mind and guided me to the cuts in my price range and flavor profile. His service somehow exceeds the quality of the steaks. I will be back because of his service, no doubt!”

“Love this grocery store! Go there with enough time to explore every aisle because you will find all sorts of interesting, diverse, and exotic foods from all over the world. (The carry my favorite Thai curry paste!) Prices are competitive and selection vast. The store is much larger than it appears!I love the fresh Italian bakery and varieties of bread. The selection of wines is not vast, but there is a nice range. (For example, we didn't see any imported Porta.)”
“If you are in the Cicero Berwyn area you need to check this store out. They have a little restaurant inside with really good fresh food. We tried their tacos and we've also tried things from la mich they have inside as well. The fruits is always fresh and everyone is super kind. They have so many options to chose from and they also have really good deals for a fair price.”
“They consider pernil if you buy the whole leg. If you only want a small pernil, like half the leg they consider it carne para tamales and they upcharge you. Its still pretty cheap.”

“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.”
