Jade Market

Great little place to grab drinks or groceries. Nice little place in the city very clean and convenient.
I stay in the apartments around the corner and I wanted to cook some real food. I walked over and expected to pay top price, but everything was the same price as a larger store. Nice selection and nice employees.
Whether you want a quick drink or cook your own food, run over to Jade.

This is the corner store that my husband and I go to almost every day. Whether it be for coffee or a snack, The Jade is perfect. It attracts a lot of colorful customers, so beware of this, but it’s a cute market with a large selection.

Rosie’s is great. Most of the employees are good. I did have an encounter though with some of my Arab friends where an employee was terrible, and I think is was more a racism issue than anything else because my experience alone was great. A lot of items in a small area. Pricey, but that’s what you get at convenience stores.

nothing there!!!

Jade Market is the only close grocery store in the area. It’s a very love hate relationship with this place.
Love that they have almost everything you would need last minute. (Even Catnip toys. who would have thought?. then again it’s hipster central around there)
Hate that everything is pretty expensive. Yet, they are smart because if you can charge it and there is no one else close by to compete. get it. This is a place for cravings and small errands — don’t do your bi-​weekly grocery shopping here.
Love that they are open til midnight every night except Sundays (10pm) so when it’s 1130 and I’m craving something I can get it quick.
Hate that homeless people are always hanging around there asking for change and cigarettes.
Love that they have a lot of organic food/​local food/​unique products. You aren’t going to find the normal brands here. Only the unique hipster stuff.
Love that the employees are always happy and chatty. They are all really cool and friendly with everyone, even the crazy homeless that come by all the time.
Come here and have a Jade experience. it’s fun.

I had a terrible experience here. The place is totally not kid friendly or parking friendly. The cashier was actually super nice and understanding though, that’s why I didn’t give this place one star.

When I first relocated to SLC for a little awhile, I wished I had a little NYC type bodega to walk to for a diet coke or detergent etc. I was very surprised and happy with Jade Market which far surpasses markets elsewhere. The cashiers were always nice and helpful. And the hours weren’t bad either!

Generally groceries are a tad more expensive than Smith’s (ex. $ 6 for a gallon of milk vs. the same brand at Smiths for $ 4). However, I have found that fruits are less expensive and overall the quality of food is better.

I was really impressed by the selection of groceries available at this little market. They have 3 – 4 different brands of ginger beer (how random!). I was also surprised about the fresh berries (strawberries and raspberries) that they carried on a Saturday morning.

I just made love to a sandwich. I’m talking smoking jacket and Courvoisier kind of lovemaking too…
Rosie’s Deli inside Jade Market is one of the best one-​two punches in town. Rosie knows her stuff – she slices the right things thin… the other things thick. Her bbq sauce is vinegary (not the cornstarch hoedown most losers eat). Her bacon is crisp. Her avocados are ripe. A sandwich is a conversation between you and the ingredients people. And Rosie wants to facilitate that conversation.
Combo up your sandwich with one of Jade’s fine selection of drinks or candy bars. Fuck the noise about price – go shop at Maverick if you wanna get fat on the cheap.

I like Jade Market but I LOVE the deli inside called Rosie’s Deli. Unfortunately it doesn’t have it’s own Unilocal page so here I am.
Rosie’s is owned and run by a lovely woman. I used to work around the corner and my coworkers and I came here at least once a week. (When we first discovered it, at least 2 – 3 times a week.)
The minute I walk into the market, the sweet smell of bacon wafts into my nose and I’m instantly hungrier than I can bear. I make my way to the back of the market and there she is with her big smile. She’s part of the reason why I gave Rosie’s five stars. She’s a dream.
Each day she has a different special: Roast beef with brie, tuna, meatballs, etc. In the winter, she also has a daily homemade soup. Delicious. As for the sandwiches, they’re not overly complicated but they are big on taste. You get to choose between white or wheat, whatever kind of cheese (even havarti!), and all of the mouthwatering fresh vegetables that you can squeeze into the sandwich. I always loved the turkey, bacon, avocado with sprouts and other various veggies. Her bacon is delectably crunchy. She deserved that «Best bacon» award.
As for Jade Market, I really only buy a drink or piece of fruit here and there. A lot of their stuff is kind of pricey if you ask me. But they get serious points for housing Rosie’s Deli.
I wish I still worked around the corner!

Inside this tiny market on 2^nd South is a tinier sandwich shop called Rosie’s Deli that happens to make some of my favorite sandwiches anywhere. And it really is a small affair. The shop is in the back, you make your way to the counter, place your order with Rosie (I hope that’s her name) or her assistant, they wrap it up and you pay for it at the check-​out stand. Then you’re on your way. They used to have a table and some chairs in the market, but it looks like they were removed, probably for more space. So it’s now strictly take-​out.
But it’s always a fantastic sandwich you walk away with. All of the ingredients are high quality and the vegetables are fresh.
On Tuesday, I like the special, which is roast beef with brie. I get it on the white roll, and aside from some horseradish mayo, it really doesn’t need anything else. And it’s so good.
Other days, I’ll nearly always get the turkey and cranberry. This one I get on the multi/​whole/​9/​12/​whatever-​grain roll, which is great, other than the flax seeds on top. I’m all for healthy, as long as it’s delicious, but I hate how those get stuck in my teeth. Anyway, it’s a small matter. I’ll also generally get cream cheese, havarti, sprouts, roasted (I think) red peppers and cucumber. The cucumber slices are thin, a nice touch because it’s such a good flavor, but I don’t like biting through thicker slices on my sandwiches (I sound so picky in this review – I’m really not). It has a bit more going on than Tuesday’s special, but I really couldn’t pick a favorite between the two.
I’ve had the turkey and bacon a couple times as well. The bacon is very good. Any other place, this sandwich would likely be my standby, and I’m sure it is for many of the customers. They also have a decent meatball and Italian sausage as daily specials, and both are, unsurprisingly, excellent.
The market itself, well, I guess I can’t say much because other than an occasional beverage or bag of chips, I’m only here for the sandwiches. I can say that a friend used to live across the street and complained that the beer is too expensive. But it’s clean and the employees are always friendly.
I used to be here about twice a week. Over the past year I haven’t been as frequent a patron for various reasons, but last week I sort of rediscovered it and right now I’m already thinking about Tuesday again.
