DO NOT USE BATHROOM. I came here with my boyfriend we had drove hours and I realized that i needed to poop really bad. I asked cashier if I could use bathroom really quick and she said yes. When I was using the restroom, there might not have been communication because a big man, security or whoever started banging on the door when I was using the bathroom. My bf did come inside with me maybe that alerted them into thinking we weren't using the bathroom, but he was almost about to knock the door down! And I was pooping. I was HIGHLY uncomfortable and I had liked this store the first time I came here but after this incident I will not be coming here ever again. read more

Excellent! The food is awesome the pricing the service is good goes pretty quick through the line I'm going to be honest atmosphere is nice it's quiet sometimes. I have recommended the store to a lot of people! read more

I always find things that i may not find at other stores. My grandkids LOVE this store , we co.e from St Paul to shop. Thanks So Low

The only thing I buy from this store is their FRESH meat. I love the jumbo chicken wings. They have very nice customer services at the meat department and is always staffed. Store looks clean. This is my secrets to go to store for grilling in the summer and deep frying year round. read more

Great selection of meat and other groceries!! You can find some really good quality products here . Wish there was some local meat option but besides that great place to save some money . read more

I do not think many people know about this place but I am so glad I found it. It is located not in the best neighborhood but hey it is worth the price to go there. I would suggest not to dress nice when you shop there. There is a security officer at the door making sure you do not bring any crazy things with you. Do not try to steal. They stock some vegetables produce that are about to get bad so make sure you watch what you buy. I love their meat selection because they are so cheap but always make sure you check the expiration date. Usually I come here for their ribeye. A lot of people wait in line for the chicken wings because they always run out so I like to skip that line. They stock a lot of boxed food but still cheap prices. Overall I like this place, staff are super friendly. I like to chat with them when I am there. This place is not like Aldi other Asian grocery stores I have been to, it is organized and clean. Plenty of parking space but try to avoid rush hour time. read more

This is my new favorite treasure. It is a bit chaotic in the layout and organization and takes time to look at expiration dates but there are some great deals. I bought fresh collard greens that were huge and generously abundant, mustard greens and cilantro. I plan on buying some bulk meats for my dog as she is on a raw food diet. The staff was super friendly and helpful. A must see store. read more

Its kind of like a thrift shop for food. Amazing deals but you cant always go in there and be sure of finding what you want. Some of the staples cost a bit more. Im guessing they provide them to offer the basics but the true savings are in the overstock. Out of date stuff is frozen and Ive only had one bad experience with rancid taco chips which they refunded. Although to my amusement, they at first resisted because I had opened it but how else would I know they were bad? BTW. The carryout service is a Byerlys touch. Tip ' em a buck or two for feeling fancy! read more

I love this store. It is not Whole Foods, but you can get things here that you could never get in any other store at amazingly low prices. The star is the meat counter. I would bet that every bar selling chicken wings gets them here. They sell their meat by the pound, but with huge discounts for five and ten pound orders. Every cut of pork is here in enormous quantities and there is also good beef. This might be the only place in town that sells utility grade meat as one of a number of choices. This is great because that meat is perfectly great for braising, stews and ground meat--even grilling when properly marinaded at a fraction of the price of higher grades. The number and kinds of sausages were just great. You can buy hot links here, just like at the barbecue joints in town. Also huge amounts of boned catfish, which I love. They sell it cubed, ready for skewers and the grill. The produce section is a little small, but there are some things here that I haven't seen elsewhere, like aloe leaves. Of course southern greens and root vegetables are the star. Bags of frozen okra were a great surprise. If you like southern or Hispanic cooking, this is your go-to place. I came because of the happy television ad they have been running, and could not have been more pleased. The staff is great. I have now gone several times and will certainly continue to go here. read more

As far as I know, this is the only "food liquidator" in the Twin Cities. So Low sells old food. Food that might or might not be expired. So check the expiration dates and know that some food might not be up to your usual standards. But on that note there are some deals to be found. Pepperidge Farm shortcake cookies: six packages for 99 cents. 13 ounce bottles of Simply orange juice: 2 for 99 cents. If you see something you want, get it because tomorrow that pallet of spaghetti sauce will be gone. So Low also sells food that isn't old. It's a full-on grocery store that sells expired or close to expiring food. They also have an import aisle, mostly asian, mexican and some caribbean. read more

Where is the real website where you can the meat packs and prices? How is it to put that up there, especially if you want someone to call and make an order. read more

I cannot get over how friendly the staff is here. Great work ethics from absolutely everyone. The guys behind the meat counter step right up - not lazy and making you wait! The cashier runs around the store talking to everyone. I left my cart in the aisle for about 5 minutes while trying to decide on what to buy. She came and started putting the cart away. Wow! Efficient and so friendly. The cashier smiling and so nice. The guys who bagged the groceries stepped right up and did their job so quickly which In this day and age that is stellar. Thank you for your great customer service. For this reason alone I will be back!! read more

Love this place! Feels like Aldi's but with all the stuff I grew up with as a kid! Definitely will be my new store that I pick up all my goodies from. read more

I list my wallet in the 15 bucks and all my personal info they so called checked cameras and said I had no wallet when I came in what the f would I lie for I think a worker took it and they were covering for them all there low because the food is years expired I had a lunch able in 2010 that expired in 2008 well the best by date read more

As a Southerner that relocated here seven years ago I had given up on finding any of the items that I was used to buying back home... that is until I found So Low! Butcher selection, smoked meats you name it! If you are looking for the field peas with snaps, purple hull peas, baby butter beans etc. LOOK NO FURTHER! Prices that cannot be beat with wonderfully helpful staff. They also offer butcher discounts on bulk purchases. read more

Some organic and healthy food items at a discount, some junk food is mixed in, check dates! This spot is a gem for those who seek to eat healthy, natural, and organic without the price gouging. read more

I live in North Minneapolis. I'm poor. this establishment, simpy uput, beats the prices on Cub, Rainbow and Aldi every time. The full butcher shop is worth the trip alone. their meat section is higher quality than the chain food markets, and always cheaper. Their ethnic food section is incredible. their food, as far as I've observed, is always fresh. I've shopped at Mike's Discount Foods, and this place beats them in selection and freshness. read more

I like the meat and it is at a great price. I like going there to buy things because it is enough food to feed my family versus going to Walmart were I have to buy more meat, which a lot of Walmarts meat is expensive and I would have to buy like two packs of meat, like pork chops for instance. read more

This So Low is pretty decent for where it is and their budget. I'd think of this more of a small store compared to other grocery outlets like Cub Foods but it's just quick and local which is convenient. The cost of bags are mostly the same and they have okay sales once in a while like 2 for $5 on 3.49$ bags, or 2 for 3$ on Gatorade and whatnot. The amount of items that are restocked are fine, they aren't usually out of anything when I go there and it's usually not expired but nearing. The employees are nice and are fast at checking out and are welcoming. They we're even nice enough to cover 1.99 for me because I miscalculated on my math. read more

I went there today 4-7-15. The cashier was rude to me. Is it cuz I white? I am not all white I am 1/4 Cree from Canada. There meats are priced good, but I was not impressed by there prices the rest of the store. I bought Kraft mayo and it was expropriation date is 4-20-14. They had over 50 jars. How can they sell it. I will not bring it back. If I need meat I might drive round trip 29 miles for it. You need more English speaking works. I am from a French speeking province. I learned to speek English so people can under stand me. I work in retail too. read more

You absolutely cannot beat the prices for meat. Old time R&B and Soul music. Northside at it's best.

Not as great as I was hoping. A lot of the items were regular grocery store pricing, If not more. But I did find a couple of deals. Meat was super cheap along with some off brand proceeded goods. If you go look at the stuff on pallets still in boxes. That's where the deals were. read more

I just spent almost $300 on 2 apt packs and a pork pack, and almost half the pork pack was rotten and when I TRIED to return it to get meat that wasn't spoiled the store manager accused me and my mom of returning spoiled meat when they gave us "good" meat, I have NEVER been so offended in my life I was so embarassed and being low income that meat was a good 2-3 weeks worth of food that I now don't have, I can't afford to buy any more meat so I won't be eating halfway through this month....they took food out of not only my mouth but a 5 year old and a 62 year old, AVOID this store!! find another so low to go to read more

Great low cheap price at most of the stuff there. Their veggie need a lot of work, some time it's all messed up and some pieces of it are dropped on the ground. I don't go there to buy veggies so I don't care. Great deal on the rest! Nice services and people. read more
