Visited from Chicago and stopped in to see! The woman who runs the shop is amazing! So sweet and loved to have conversation. The store had all the great options one would have at a Polish deli in Chicago. The kielbasa was great and so were the snacks and treats we had picked up! The prices were fair and just like any other Polish deli I’ve experienced since I live near several. Truly authentic and I will definitely revisit when I’m back in town!

One of Salems hidden gems! Great selection of imported European foods, including pickles, krauts, desserts, smoked meats and candies. Plus the most amazing sandwiches made by some of the sweetest ladies in town!

Absolutely adore the woman who runs this place. She is so funny and kind. Wish she could be my polish grandmother. They have fantastic food, drinks, and an excellent selection of imported eastern European goods.

Adorable shop with a wide array of imported goods for a very fair price. One of my favorite places to get food in Salem.

The lady was super rude to me and my family while we were there today. Worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. No amount of money would make me ever eat here again.

I went there this past weekend and both of the women working ignored me for about 15 minutes while they had their own conversation. One woman finally acknowledged me and was so rude to me that I chose not to order anything and just walked out.

Review №36

I feel like the woman attempted to rip me off that worked here. I got the fried kielbasa and the sign outside said $6.50... she charged me $9.50 when there was nowhere posted that said kielbasa $9.50 when I questioned her she became super defensive and came up with a ton of excuses as to why prices werent marked correctly. The picture showed it came with bell peppers and it did not, I brought it back dissatisfied and the woman argues with me and doesnt take me seriously. Terrible customer service, plus everything in this store is overpriced. I think it would be benficial to update your sign and take things you no longer have on your menu off. I asked for a meal featured on the menu and they didnt make it anymore?! Thats called false advertising. Very rude customer service. Do not recommend and will not return.
