European Delicatessen - International Food Market — Attraction in Meridian

I really love the European deli. So fun just to look at all the cool stuff that they have in there. Chocolates, different cookies & candy, Pantry items, frozen food, interesting beverages, they even have kefir! Great prices on their yummy hot food and an hour before closing it is 50% off the hot food. They have beef samsas, piroshkis, chicken meatballs (cotlets) stuffed peppers, beet salad, seaweed salad and much more! A nice exotic selection of cheese --but it's best to eat the slices fresh the same day because it ends up being some sort of a strange crispy texture after a few days! All the chicken selections are pretty good, but I thought their fish was a bit fishy and have hesitated to try it again . Same with the liver, I was brave to try it but probably won't do it again . Fair warning -- it's a long wait sometimes at the deli area, and you have to ring bells to get people's attention either there or at the cash register, at times.... But all of this gives it some kind of Eastern European character that I find endearing when I'm not in a rush! That said, try not to go when you're in a rush but have plenty of time to tool...

Beautiful people and beautiful store. I am not European but love this store and the culture. Everything from deli is delicious and bread is 10/10. As my fellow brother has said, ignore all the bad reviews due to “CDC guideline... blah blah... I’ll do anything the government tells me to do.. here take everything I own” they have a right to stay locked in their indoors, so just stay there!. “Let me wear a mask that doesn’t work and give me hand sanitizer for my hands only, like the virus just magically disappears off my phone and all my other accessories. It makes me feel safe. Blah blah LISTEN TO MY REVIEW the world revolves around me!! They hurt my feelings!! ” AH Ignore them. WHERE ARE THE FREE THINKERS. Fully support this place!!! 10/10 recommend. Support small business!!! Don’t let the gov...

The prices here are great, the customer service is horrendous, one of the worst I've ever seen. The staff is literally nowhere to be found. The cashier is never at the register. If you're looking for stuff from the deli, you're going to be waiting for a really long time, even after they see you all the way in the back and you interrupt them talking by simply your presence. No willingness to help whatsoever, not one smile, once you waited an eternity and they decide to help you, don't worry you won't understand if you don't speak the language they speak, because they don't speak English, and they speak to you in their native language, and expect you to understand. Don't come here unless you want to be confused, waste your time and save...
