Vali Produce carries many international foods and spices we cant find elsewhere. We love the variety of food, as well as the friendly and fast customer service. Walmart could learn a lesson from Vali. Also, they always have a huge selection of fresh fruits and vegetables and each other area of food and drink. Rarely do they not have what I need. And, Vali is kept clean. It isnt constantly being switched around like Walmart, either.

Always very good produce—— my go to for fresh produce from different areas, even when not in season, you can get it. One thing I truly miss, and wish youd bring back, is the marinaded garlic cloves with olives. Or just the cloves alone. We used to purchase these on a weekly basis and now there are none. Also, seems as if the sushi thats freshly made is gone forever. What happened? PLEASE BRING THESE THINGS BACK!!

This store always looks like it just opened. Produce is amazing and displayed beautifully. I came for specifically a pork shoulder butt and good corn tortillas to make Carnitas tacos. Thank you for making my trip fast and easy.

We are new to the Rockford area and Valli was a new discovery... a excellent adventure actually. We found the produce area amazing with items we’ve never seen and the meat / seafood section was actually the best we’ve ever seen... anywhere. Kudos to this store with six locations.We are self proclaimed Foodies and into ethnic cooking of various cultures. We can shop here and get everything we need when planning Asian, Indian and Mexican all in a given week. One of the pics shows our evening meal of lamb chops, potatoes and first ever grilled cactus. (Nopales).If you have not been to this store yet, take some time to go just look around.Hmmm... thinking beef tongue for this weekend- or maybe rabbit on my Grill King 😉.

Produce and meat selection/prices are awesome. Sometimes when the fresh blue crab comes in the place smells like a fish market, however, its not usually to overwhelming. Fresh food is always a plus. I prefer this place over any other grocery stores around for the produce and meats. They have really good deals on produce too that they have on a rack by the start of the meat department.

We shop Valli for many unusual items. The store has many items that may not found elsewhere. I caution others to shop carefully as some items (produce -meat) may have reached their useful dateValli will also sell some of the lower grades of meat (select or utility) just so they appear to have a great prior, but they can also have some good prices on items found higher elsewhere. It the same advice that can be offered anywhere we shop today,. be an educated, knowable buyer.

Unfortunately, Im scoring this very low as my fiance and I purchased ready to eat food of rice, quesadillas and chicken tenders and the chicken was still raw in the middle. I went to the one by alpine and riverside. Ive have never had any issues with the one on east state st. Very disappointing.

Hey Valli, EVERY time I shop at this store, and its within an hour of closing time, there are only 2 or MAYBE 3 registers open and crazy long lines. Maybe you should consider having a couple more people working at the end of the day!?!

Review №37

Valli is great. They carry lots of ethnic specialties that are hard to find other places. I feel that their deli and bakery are the best in town. I do not buy produce or meat there, as we do our best to buy organic, free-range, hormone free, local products. If they carried more of these, I would shop there exclusively. As it is, I go elsewhere for organics. I feel their safety protocol is very good.

This is my favorite grocery store to stop at when I am in the Rockford area. It usually has some exotic produce, meat and bakery items. I do like the State Street Valli location better but I happened to be on this end of town.

Great verity of ethnic foods and other basics. Fruits and vegetables are always good prices but beware of bruising on fruits. They transfer many of them I believe to cool storage overnight. So they get bumped around a bit.

While the selection is very diverse, the service is absolutely horrendous. I purchased a cake and requested that Happy 54th Birthday Dea be frosted on top. This seemingly simple task took over 30 minutes to be completed and the finished product I received looked as if Stevie Wonder had frosted the birthday wish himself. I dont hold it against the young girl for doing such a poor job. How would she have known the significance of the cake? That it was in honor of my boyfriends mother, who sadly passed last year. However, she quickly learned the importance after I started to cry upon seeing the monstrosity of a cake she brought out to me. Her only response to my emotional state was a sheepish Thanks for the practice. This less than joyous interaction was followed by a bleak explanation from the cashier, Oh, well she just started in the bakery last week, as if the hideous cake I was purchasing wasnt indication of that fact already. The irony in it all is that the cake was absolutely delicious and reminded my boyfriend of a wonderful and happy memory he shared with his late mother. At the end of the day, I could live with a crappy cake. I could have paid for it, ate it, and moved on. What I cant stand for is the level of absolute disrespect and disregard the staff has for the customers. If you are curious about this establishment, I recommend you save yourself the cost and emotional trauma and buy your groceries at Walmart. Even the exceptionally poor service at Walmart surpasses anything you would encounter here.

I shop at Valli when I visit my parents in Rockford. The quality and quantity of their produce section is superior to almost any store Ive been in. They also have ethnic sections not found in my area, like German and Polish. They have a very good deli department. Every staff member I have met has been friendly and helpful.

I occasionally shop at Valli Produce in Loves Park. I had received great advice to shop at Valli especially because of their deli and produce sections. In addition to great selection of produce, Valli carries good selection of ethnic products, for example Italian, Polish, Hispanic, Indian, etc. The Balsamic Brown Rice in 5 pound woven bags cooks up wonderful with amazing spices like white pepper, ginger and turmeric in a rice cooker as my personal diet substitute for potatoes.

I understand that the world has changed. Just not so much to explain all of the rotten food at Valli. All of the leaf produce was horribly wilted. Why do they not refresh with water like most stores do? I purchased a large bag of chicken leg quarters. It went rotten 2 days before its sell by date. I called to see if there was anything that could be done. Im furloughed from both jobs and cant afford to throw away food. They lady on the phone said that unless I returned the chicken today theres nothing they will do. So thank you so much for cheating your customers with rotten food and keeping their money.

Review №93

I had not been in Valli for a couple of years and now I wonder why! They have so much to look at and so many choices. I went in for a certain spice and left with about 6 others that I had to have as my regular store does not carry such a variety. Produce looked tempting and several varieties of fresh nuts for the season....and I mean the kind you have to crack with a nut cracker...good place...interesting too!

Review №94

The place to find that odd ingredient youve been needing for that unusual dish you read about. Just dont go when youre hungry!!! Organized imported foods in several languages, as well as fresh veg and fruit likewise. Reasonably priced. Unless youre an incredibly self-disciplined shopper, be prepared to spend twice your usual limit for one trip to your usual market. Helpful people.
