Kowalski's Markets

Always quality ingredients and friendly, helpful people. Best higher end grocery store in the area. They now have a build your own pastar (closes at 8:30) which is excellent! The New space is incredible.

Stopped in for a quick bite, fresh bread, deli meats and cheese. Young man behind the counter was so patient with me ordering a few slices of 4 different meats and 2 kinds of cheese. Thank you for helping a picky eater. Less than $7 & better and any sandwich shop.

Walk in here without a cart or basket because you can only afford what you can hold in your arms. One time they had live music which was pretty cool. Their rotisserie chicken is the best you can get from a grocery store

Everything at Kowalski’s is perfection and they offer the best of everything! I like to go more than once per day just because I love to be surrounded by all the goodness. Yummy premade salads and meals at a reasonable cost compared to other local grocery stores. Unmatched service and quality!

My favorite market in the twin cities. It is a great place to grab a muffin or two on your way to work in the morning or some bbq ribs and Mac n Cheese from the food court when you're on your break from work. The staff is also the friendliest and most professional that I've interacted with.

This is a high-end grocery store with high quality products and high-end prices.

I don't recommend shopping for "essentials" here, the aforementioned "high-end" prices carry true to all items and are especially obvious with various household staples.
On the other hand, this Kowalski's Market location is a wonderful place to shop for those things you just cant find elsewhere. those ingredients that really make a dish shine and taste amazing.

The staff at this location are always friendly and helpful, even when coming in late close to closing. Checkout is efficient although I prefer the self checkout as I usually only have a few items.
One of my favorite things about shopping here is the abundance of great samples. Not only do they prepare great food for the samples, the employees are nice and not overly pushy about selling the food being sampled. This location also has many holiday celebrations, where they offer many samples and great deals on products related to the holiday. A few examples include a 40th year anniversary, Oktoberfest, and a Halloween event.

There are many noteworthy features within the store such as many "build your own" hot food bars, including: a pho/ramen bar, a chipotle like salad/bowl bar, an olive bar(?), a soup bar, and a delicious pasta bar. These food bars are great for a quick meal that you can cater to your own preference and as an added bonus, taste great!
There is also an attached Starbucks within the store, I am not much of a coffee drinker but in my limited experience the workers were polite and timely.
The specialty cheese and deli selections are vast and offer great recommendations and deals.
Lastly there is a small gift shop within the store, offering items from local brands as well as various household items and decorations.

Thank you for taking the time to read my review!

The store is very clean, very well maintained. The staff was very hospitable and willing to help assist with any of the needs that I may have had. It's like people were jumping to help me and bend over backwards.

Kowalski's markets consistently have the finest products in stock and appropriately shelved in easily found display patterns and the deli is top quality just as the exceptionally well- aged meats are easily reviewed and the individuals of separate department staff are commonly highly informed and enthusiastic about maintaining product quality of satisfactory sales above quantity. Kowalski's markets are kept clean and efficient to minimize the amount of time spent in the store while maximizing customer service and satisfaction to better encourage repeated clientele and thereby secure and sustain the ongoing reference of priceless word of mouth advertising

I went to the Kowalski's on Hennepin in Uptown and I was amazed at what a beautiful store it is! I like my usual Kowalski's at 54th and Lyndale, but it's much smaller and older. The Uptown store has a Starbucks, a liquor store, and a large gift department. You could wander around there and shop for hours! They stock all of the great products I like, especially the Kowalski's bottled water.

We bought the 7" champagne double layer cake for our wedding, and it was frosted in the beautiful flower pattern just like the website picture! It tasted AMAZING & was such a great & affordable option for our wedding party. I would highly recommend getting this cake for your wedding! I look forward to ordering another one on a regular day just to try it again.

I literally can't imagine a better grocery store for fancy items. It's got all the high class stuff you've been wanting. Of course it'll cost you a lot more, but you already knew that. Just don't expect to get everything on your Cub groceries list here, sometimes feels like a limited selection.

The manager was very nice, as well as Preston, the personal shopper they had to help us. It is well set up for us mobility impaired. Pleasant experience all around. Awesome store to get groceries and goodies.

What an amazing selection of so many different kinds of foods and specialty items and a plethora of friendly staff!

We love our local kowalskis! It's a great market to have in the neighborhood. Smaller store with everything you'd need. Higher quality items. Prices are generally fairly high, but convenience is key. Deli, cheeses, bakery, hot foods and produce are all extremely good quality and always fresh. Never disappointed! Attached liquor store for a bottle of wine to go with the dinner you just picked up!

This Kowalski’s has the best stuff!! I mean really! Wether you’re looking for clothing, Knick knacks, stickers, cards, purses, hats, candles, accessories, or food. This is the spot! They have so much stuff in that tiny store. A really great selections of candles, reading glasses and stickers!

I love Kowalskis! All of their signature products are truly delicious, and their deli and hot food bars are incredible as well. Workers are extremely friendly, and I appreciate that there is a parking lot to keep my visits easy. I love their hours, being open until late evening makes my trips extra convenient. Definitely my favorite grocer by far!

I love Kowalskis. Very clean. Excellent service. Lots of awesome products

Amazing selection of premade and ready to cook meal options

I once worked at a beautiful location, and yes guys and gals it's True and he really cares.

Nice meat dept ! A lot of good options everywhere else in the store to.
