Like everyone else, I waited quite a while for this store to open - hoping that it would bring more…read morechoices in the area (there's actually a lot of grocery options nearby, but the items carried are quite similar). While the opening of this store did bring something different, I'm not sure it was exactly the different that I was hoping for. The big draw of Amazon Fresh is probably in its tech. There's Alexa throughout the store to give you guidance and nice digital signage throughout. This does give the store a more modern feel, though having been to other Amazon Fresh locations, I was hoping that it would feel a bit more futuristic now. However in this regard, Amazon Fresh just feels very similar to whole foods with a bit lower prices and different brand options. In terms of the cart, this is where I wish that it were improved a bit. I'm not sure that the scanning is really significantly better than what they've had in the last few years, which for me makes this process not a smooth and effortless as it could be with even better technology. The initial setup is also still a bit confusing for newcomers who may find the pairing process with the cart a little confusing without someone to point out where to find the links on the interface. Similarly, without a little guidance on the self-checkout process, it can be a bit confusing as well. The food selection here is pretty standard for an Amazon Fresh, which isn't too different from what you'd expect to find at Jewel. There are different pricing levels available, with a lot of the most competitive items being store brand with Prime pricing. Overall selection seems to be quite good in the dry goods and frozen items -- I was a bit disappointed in some of the fresh items as I was hoping for more in-house items in the bakery and a bit larger selection of ready-to-eat items. While they don't have a bad selection, many local grocery stores have a substantial number of cakes, breads, meats, entrees, etc. available to easily pickup and very competitive prices. This alone may keep me from visiting more often as having a variety of these convenient entrees is important for my busy work schedule and fresh bakery items / cakes is important for my busy social schedule. Overall, interesting new option in the area for groceries. While not bad, it doesn't meet my needs as good as I'd hoped at the time of this writing - however the overall store cleanliness, generally competitive prices, and use of newer technologies is something that's still not common at other grocery stores yet.

Though they are noted. On entry staff greet visitors. I assume this will be normal ongoing activity at least while the store is newer and people are still integrating DashCarts into their lifestyle. Inside of the store is ample space to move even with a high throughput of customers. THROUGHPUT is important here. The store is BUSY but the customer flow is fast and people are quick moving inside. The noise level is above average, Yo Amazon, will ya turn down the ambient music? People are trying to think in here! I can't hear myself think let alone run a register with these noise levels! The self checkout systems are decent though the hardware needs serious work. Touch screens take way too much force to activate. Scan guns don't pick up in store codes easily not for clients nor associates. It doesn't matter who is running the register. These screens and guns need to be calibrated, full stop! Thank goodness the staff here are astonishingly polite and helpful. A staff agent followed us through the entire self checkout and took note of problems with the checkout system. Hopefully these issues will be worked on. Sushi was good and fresh. I'll definitely return for groceries here as long as prices stay competitive and for the love of god. Fix those self checkouts and the scanner guns in general. The whole stores scanners suuuuck

That's not saying too much as I've consumed 95 different grocery store tissis this year, but I'm trying to be the people's champ. You gotta earn that title. I was in Chicago for the weekend, and saw there was this Meijer a 35 minute drive away. I knew what I had to do. I took an uber to the promised land, hopeful this would be some Tier 1 bird as it was so highly recommended. I pulled up and saw firetrucks out front with lights on. My internal dialogue began to run: "There's no way... I came all this way just for it to be closed because there's a fire in there?! God making me work for this one..." But then I saw people walking in and out so it was all good. I went and grabbed a $5.99 bird, took it to a business park right down the street, and dug in with my bare hands. I can't even tell you how disappointed I was in this chicken. It landed at a 7.4/10 which currently ranks it 53rd out of 96. People were riding for Meijer like it was gonna be in the 9s.

If I can get something at a different, less expensive grocer, I usually choose something other than Jewel. The fact is, the store stocks so many grocery items I can't completely avoid it. Also, their produce is usually outstanding. Their deli counter is well stocked, and most stores, including this one, have a sushi chef on staff. While the sushi isn't as good as you would find at a decent sushi bar, it isn't all that bad. You can find what you want but be prepared for sticker shock when you check out.

Jewel stores are all over the Chicagoland area. You can find one in almost every town and city…read more This one, in north Arlington Heights is better than most. It's clean and well stocked. Like other Jewels, their produce is very good. Although the selection of varied produce items isn't great, they stock the basics of what you need. If you want a wider variety of fresh produce, you should go to Valli Produce. This store is well laid out making things pretty easy to find. I like their deli counter for their selection of Dietz and Watson cold cuts and their salad selection is large. I don't buy from their bakery often, but have been happy with the quality of baked goods when I have. I have not tried the meat/fish counter at this location so can't speak to that. Like all other Jewels, my big complaint is about their high prices. You can go to Aldi and walk out with similar items for a fraction of what you pay at Jewel. But, for a wide selection, in the Chicagoland area, Jewel can't be beaten.

Today while I was checking out, it was busy and the checkout clerk Zach noticed that the bag of avocados was a little light and it looked lite it might have been opened, I was so surprised that he would notice and take the time to make sure I was getting the right amount. Wonderful job Zach, and thank you

I want to give a shout out to Andrea and Chris (I wish I had last names!)…read more You know what it's like when life gets so stressful that you are struggling to find a reason to make it through the day, and then you discover a sweet treat in the international candy aisle of your local Tony's that is like nothing else you've ever eaten, and it becomes your nightly reward for making it through another day? No? Just me? Well, then humor me. I found that treat (and I'm not identifying it because I don't want my store to run out!!) and I stopped in my Tony's Monday morning to get my week's worth, and despite the fact that I hadn't seen the supply dwindle at all in the months I've been eating these treats (so I just assumed I was the only one who bought them,) AND they had literally boxes full of product every time I came to Tony's, my heart SUNK when I saw the empty shelf. Sometimes when life rains, it pours, and life has been pouring on me, and seeing that one of the few things I had to look forward to was gone, broke the camel's back. I headed toward customer service, and saw a woman standing in front of customer service (she may have been supervising the self checkout) and I approached her on the verge of tears and explained that they were out of the only thing that brought me joy, and she said "well then, we will find it." That was Angela. Thank you, Angela!!! Truly, an angel! I was expecting judgment, not kindness. I was hoping they had just moved the candy to a different display or something but Angela looked into it and they were completely out (and when I'd been in less than a week earlier, there was still a LOT of product that was about a year away from expiration, so I guess I'm NOT the only one who finds this item irresistible!) So Angela recruited a very kind gentleman named Chris who got my information, placed an order with the vendor, and barely 24 hours later I got a text from Chris that the product was at the store waiting for me. My experience with "customer service" on a whole lately has been that no one seems to care anymore. Or that people do the absolute minimum that they can get away with. I cannot remember the last time I had a company truly care if I was happy with my shopping experience. Angela could have just told me to "go look for the product at other Tony's stores" or online ... but instead she made sure the item would be available at my preferred store. Chris could have just told me "they'll be in some time next week, come in and look" .... but instead, he texted me to let me know when they arrived, and because I couldn't make it into the store that day, he made sure to set side the quantity I need. Again, these are all such small things in the grand scheme of life, but Joy and kindness are so important and so hard to come by these days. Because of the kindness of Andrea and Chris, I'm able to find little bits of joy at the end of the day, as I work my way through this difficult chapter in my life.

The tacos were generously topped with fresh cilantro and onions, and the salsa had a really good flavor. The chicharrón taco was decent, although it was served only mildly warm rather than piping hot. The steak taco had good flavor but was a bit dry. I took the chile relleno home and ate it later. While it was filling, I noticed it wasn't prepared with the traditional cheese I typically expect in a chile relleno, which was a little disappointing. Overall, the food was okay for the price and the portions were fair. The salsa was probably my favorite part of the meal. While I wasn't blown away and probably wouldn't go out of my way to return specifically for the tacos, it could be a convenient option if you're already shopping at the market and looking for a quick bite.
