I believe the deli and food area has more options available during lunch hour than dinner hour, which make sense. At time there would be yummy samples. They also host events for us to try out new things. Take off one star was because some employee previously offer my kids with religious figures toys. It was very strange and they just randomly give the toy figures to our kids without asking parents consent. It hasn't happen for the past few visits and hopefully won't happen ever again.

Upon a fine morn, I did venture forth with but a single purpose: to procure one grape--nay, not just any grape, but one most crisp and crunchy, like unto the first frost-kissed fruit of autumn's glory. Lost amidst the aisles of abundance, my spirit did begin to waver. Yet lo! There appeared a gallant youth, clad in the humble vestments of service--his name, as sung by the angels (or perhaps his nametag), was Zachary. With a smile bright as the morning sun and cheer as boundless as a spring meadow, this noble fellow did not mock my quest, strange though it was. Nay, he embraced it with mirth and honor, guiding me with great care through vineyard and produce till the chosen orb was found. Truly, Zachary is a steward of joy, a knight of customer service, and the grape--verily!--was as crunchy as mine heart did hope. Five stars, and may his smile never fade.

They have several locations throughout the cities and their Shoreview location is a favorite of mine.

OFFICIAL COMPLAINT: MALFUNCTIONING SYSTEM LOOP & COMPENSATION DEMAND…read more I am formally lodging an official complaint regarding the unacceptable handling of my account and the looping, broken chat infrastructure that has wasted massive amounts of my valuable time tonight. Your automated system repeatedly blocked me from speaking with a human, creating a toxic customer experience designed to stonewall consumer rights. Because of the extreme stress, deceptive tracking metrics, and the extensive time I have been forced to waste just to bypass your bot, I am no longer accepting a basic resolution. I demand a manual override to issue a $30 refund to my original payment method or a new $30 promotional coupon code as mandatory compensation for this severe customer service failure. Do not transfer me, do not drop this connection, and do not quote generic policy restrictions. I need a supervisor or an authorized representative to manually process this $30 adjustment immediately to resolve this dispute. I give 0 Star if I can, been asking for $10 coupon code to a 2 hours wasted time.

I have noticed between this location and Rosevilles this one does a better job at placing parchment paper in between your cheese slices so it's easier to grab when making a sandwich. The pastry section is always beautiful and I can't get over how stunning the tarts are. I've come in on some random days where they have sample going on and I tell you it is the BEST! I tend to buy almost everything they sample because it's so good. They had salsas, small sliders, apples with caramel and other stands. I think taking the approach that Costco does with sampling is a great thing for here. The place is always tidy and clean and staff are always very helpful.

The short rib section was sadly empty so I will have to shop at a few other grocery stores for my Christmas entree. As for the hot and ready to eat foods I grabbed, I had the vegetable egg rolls, sesame tofu, and fried rice. The egg rolls and tofu were good and passable for a quick cheap lunch, but the fried rice was near inedible. Veggies were cooked and tender, flavor was good, but the rice was entirely undercooked. I struggled to even find a single grain of rice that wasn't raw and hard and since I had mixed my rice with my tofu it nearly ruined lunch. I wouldn't call this experience indicative of of Eastsides typical good quality food, so I wont judge too harshly, but I hope this experience wont repeat itself.
