    How many ways can you make chicken taste off, dry or otherwise suspect? Probably more than two, but Byerly's had at least two of those ways down *pat* yesterday; in the salad and in the soup. That mysterious "ugh" you may have heard in the open air of Saint Louis Park yesterday was me being utterly unimpressed with my lunch at Byerly's. I should be clear--this review refers ONLY to the food court lunch service, NOT the grocery store itself (which is beautiful and spacious and newly remodeled and among my favorites). I hesitate to give this just one star because: --The food court is new, clean, spacious and offers a wide variety of foods. --I didn't try *everything* of course, and what I didn't try was a significantly large portion of the food. There could have been a lot of good. I hate to be so negative. --They were playing kicky flapper-style music from the 20's/30's. And that was pretty darned awesome. But what I did eat kept me at one star alone: --The salad bar: I had a pretty normal iceberg lettuce salad. It was build-your-own, so I guess no one forced me to put any ingredients on it. . . but the cukes were slimy (as they can get in salad bars) and the chicken strips were inedible (fried dry and hard--almost like smoked-style chicken on the inside--and very chewy). The vinaigrette dressing was fine, lettuce was fine, tomatoes were even okay. The bacon crumbles were real bacon, but *incredibly salty* and had a significant portion of chewy bacon fat crumbles mixed in with the meat. --The fresh fruit: The blueberries were good, cantaloupe and honeydew melons both good, but the watermelon shouldn't have been used (overripe and rubbery--like it had been soaking in its own juice for a long time), the pineapple was oddly slimy, and most of the grapes were soft and crushed. --The yogurt and granola: Actually, this was good. :) --The chicken chili: I LOVE chicken chili. I will have it anywhere I go. Oh Byerly's--how could you let me down so!? Despite the soup tureen being almost full-to-the-top, it was mostly liquid. I dug out the chicken, peppers and beans--but it was a battle. Logistical difficulties aside, the soup was . . . just not right in the flavor department. It had a slight spice to it...but it wasn't "hot" or "spicy" that one could define. It was like it had *no* flavor. This is coming from a gal with a solid Scandinavian salt-is-a-spice palate. Maybe it needed more salt, but it seemed salty enough. The chicken was dry and, again, chewy. The beans were. . . Well, there were no beans. I had about one and a half in a large cup of soup. To top it off, the meal was pretty expensive for what I got. And it didn't taste good or even *right*. Perhaps they were having an off day, or I didn't pick the right items. Also: a note on the utensils. I commend Byerly's for committing to eco-utensils and bowls. However, I found the biodegradable spoons and forks intolerably gritty--like what you were eating was dirty...but it wasn't, it was just the texture of the spoon/fork. I would have liked to have had other options readily available. This, granted, may not bother some at all--and surely the sustainability of the objects overrides a minor discomfort--but you have been warned!

    Love this Byerly's. It has been recently remodled and is beautiful. The food court area is a great new addition.

    The reason why I prefer Byerly's over Whole Foods is because their self-serve "hot bar" is incomparably better. It's always stocked with staples like fried chicken and mashed potatoes, but you will also find briskets, egg rolls, fried fish, and other goodies. Their salad bar is decent too, and they have dessert selections as well. If you're looking for something different, they also have traditional delis featuring comfort foods, sandwiches, and pastas. They also have a Big Bowl Express at this location.

    Absolutely love their gluten free pasta that they make in their pizza/pasta area in their deli. Rich always makes it the same way and is super awesome at his job!!! I keep coming back here because he is always friendly and makes the best pasta! I do wish that Byerlys would add the gluten free noodles to the menu!

    I love to cook. I grew up with a prof of biochemistry dad who watched additives preservatives artificial color and food packaged in plastic WAY back in 1958. But I also fed my girls McDonalds Burger King and still buy some not all food in plastic containers. I love THIS Byerly's only. It's their rare long long time staff who greet you remember you and even care worry about their seniors ( and hv called family if ESP worried about some of their Senior 'regulars'). Sandra behind hot food is a HOOT. Wise cracking fun great for many years. Mary behind sliced cold cuts is a sweetheart . The managers of each dept bend over backwards to help you find what you need. This was THE ORIGINAL store. It stayed that way a long time, had a wonderful round counter where seniors nearby would happily breakfast and chatter together Think that is why this was one of the last stores to get modernized It had a great restaurant too. Even our daughter worked there. 2+ years ago they changed the cooking oil used for frying their chickens-- had a chemical non food after taste slight odor, impacted the flavor terribly and I called. They changed it a little, but it is still not as delicious as before. Pastries too changed. Oils used. Emulsifiers to thicken, flavor again impacted They stress zero trans fat which is fine, but their pastry cream flavors are now more artificial and their overall flavors are impacted 50 %-- all post renovation. I buy their behind the counter hot meals to go ( very good quality flavor value and excellent fresh cooked veggies), milk juice soda on sale, my favorite Renslers (sp?) frozen burritos are gone, magazines ice cream some canned products and excellent deli salads $$ olive bar, and cold cuts. Their prices are higher than Cub, costco But I go for the staff. I miss the old Byerlys

    This is a really weird Byerly's. It's small. It's carpeted. It's oddly laid out. While the cashiers are great, I find that the employees at the deli and in other parts of the store are aloof and annoyed when you ask them a question. The one thing this location does have going for it, besides location, is the humongous prepared foods section. If you make use of grocery stores' grab and go type food offerings, this store could be your favorite in the area. But for me, I find shopping here weird and not really enjoyable. I would rather drive further to the nicer Byerly's in Plymouth than shop here on most days. I will say, however, that their cheese selection is spectacular and their bakery is excellent.

    Byerly's is a great grocery store, but I cannot afford to do all of my shopping here. I typically like to come here for a quick grocery pick up or for some quality produce during the frequent BOGO sales. This store is very clean and well set up. There is a full scale bakery, and ready to go foods and cheese shop. My favorite about Lunds markets, is their daily deals. I find myself stopping in here frequently for $5 rotisserie chicken on Fridays. The deals haven't seemed to ever change, so I will list them: Wednesdays - $4.99 sushi (select items) Thursdays - $4.99 flower bouquets Fridays - $4.99 rotisserie chicken Sundays - $5 Big Bowl Bonus-This location has a Red Box, a bank (can't remember name), Caribou Coffee, Big Bowl inside, self-checkouts and they will walk out your groceries for you!

    I used to think that Lunds & Byerly's stores were overpriced until I moved to a home near the Golden Valley Byerly's. I have found that they have great specials especially the BOGO promotions where several items are buy one get one free. The produce is fresh and vibrant and unmatched by any other local grocer except perhaps Whole Foods. The staff and service is fantastic, if I have trouble finding an item, they don't just give me an aisle number, they stop what they are doing and walk me to the item even if I inists that I'm fine with them just pointing me in the right direction. When they recenlty had a promotion, the cashier asked me why I didn't have their special of Bellatoria Pizzas fro $1.99 each, I said I didn't know about it and he said well you ought to go back and grab a few because the sale is today only. I'm sure this was meant to be a get you in the door item and they took or loss or made very little on me buying the pizza even though I was already at the checkout. I'm always happy to pay a little more for great service and I'm finding when I happen to stop at other grocery stores that the prices aren't all that different and teh service I get at Byerly's is far superior to what I find elsewhere.

    I went here for lunch the other day at Byerly's Creations and couldn't believe the spread!! I'm from Hawaii and we don't have a Byerly's back home. The food was fresh and so tasty!! Great place to pick up a bite on the run.

    LOVE IT! every single employee was not only doing a great job but also cheerful and taking pride in their job. I stop in sometimes for their bakery or sushi or to eat a meal there and have never not been satisfied.

    On a recent trip back to the Twin Cities, I went to one of my favorite grocery stores when I lived there-Byerly's. I cannot tell you how disappointed I was! I found SEVERAL items on the shelves which were OUTDATED! I couldn't believe it. NOT what I would ever expect from Byerly's. I also made the mistake of trying their restaurant one morning. Little did I know that they had changed it from a sit-down with servers - to a buffet. By the time we got through the line and paid the per pound charge and then sat down, the hot food was ice cold. The next time I'm back in Mpls, I will skip Byerly's.

    Came here after three rivers park, looking for something to eat around 8 pm. Totally revamped from last time I was here, and a great improvement. Lots of prepared food. Like a mini food court. Too bad most of it was closed, leaving us with a limp salad bar and almost no hot foods.

    Make sure to check the expiration date on your food. You wouldn't think you would have to at a grocery store like this but they're terrible about selling expired or almost expired food

    Why does great service come as such a surprise when we receive it? This place does it right - everyone is so friendly and seems genuinely interested in helping. The butcher spent several minutes chatting with my husband about different cuts of steak and their ratings. I wandered over to produce, and the man stocking the fruit leaned in close like he was giving only me the tip on the special price of peaches and berries. While Byerly's is clearly more expensive than say Cub, there were enough deals today to help me forget all that ($1 bags of carrots, $1/lb on fresh peaches). The store is beautiful, and even though it's under construction in one part, it was very clean and orderly. The two young ladies helping us check out were less talkative and clearly less interested in being there, but weren't rude. The whole experience was very refreshing. I wish more places would take the queue - customer service isn't that difficult, but makes all the difference. I won't shop any other grocery store.

    When I moved to Golden Valley and thought WOW, I live just two blocks away; I was excited. But excitement has led to extreme disappointment. Old food, surly service, incompetent management, and don't look for anything exotic or foreign (except for frozen or canned Mexican) because it doesn't exist there. This is American "corporate" food at its worse. It seems like every time I go there they're out of something - like fresh parsley? They never even heard of paneer cheese much less have it. And no bulk section, so one can get the freshest food in the quantity they need. Everything in this store is packaged. And 99 cents for two pieces of separately wrapped slices of bread? They are just ripping-off the nearby assisted-living and elderly in the neighborhood. I now find myself getting in the car and going to the Rainbow at West End where the shelves are stocked with great, fresh food with a huge variety. Yes, they have paneer cheese and it seems like everything is less expensive. Now, I only go to Byerly's when I run out of milk or need half and half for my coffee. This Byerly's is a huge disappointment on many levels. It's too bad. It could be a lovely community asset. Instead, it's just a rip-off.

    Clean like most Byerly's and delivers results with service and food choices. The remodel did this Byerly's good by now having a full spread of food options.

    Visit Byerlys Creations this noon. The cafetaria style place is new as part of the Byerlys Golden Valley after they have done with the renovation. The place was packed with people. Alot of choices. From rotisserie, salads, sandwiches, pizza, pasta, chinese big bowl, dessert, what else? hmm...you name it probably they carry them. Particularly I want to highlight their apple pecan cheesecake yum yum..not to sweet not to cheesy it just right. the apple and pecan came in the right amount. For entree was fried rice and thai curry chicken from big bowl, they were good to, like homemade and not have a taste like from fast food style meal. Overall I like this place. Quick, lots of choices, reasonable price.
