Review from Rick K.

As far as mini-marts go, I'm gonna give this place five stars. They have all the basics, and then some. Any store should carry staples (ketchup, canned chili, ramen, cleaning products, motor oil, etc.), and Saleh's does. They also have some common fresh vegetables, like potatoes, onions, and the like, which can be really nice. However, where they really shine is their beer selection. (They also have HUGE wine selection, but I don't know so much about that, so it's harder to comment.) I asked them once why they had such a huge selection, and they matter of factly said that it's their niche. They are a convenience store, and since there are ten thousand other convenience stores, they needed something to set them apart. They certainly succedded. Apart from a few specialty grocers like Central Market and Big Star Beers, Saleh's has the largest and quirkiest selection of beers that I've seen. It's my local go-to- place for them. And judging by the amount of people continually moving in and out of the place, I don't think I'm the only one!
On top of this, the staff is generally very friendly. Sometimes they'll talk my ear off (in a good way), and sometimes they won't, but there's always a heartfelt thanks! -

I've seen my share of convenience stores/bodegas and this one is awesome! Their beer/wine selection is wonderful (they had Pliny when no one else did). And the owner knows his selection well.
They also seem to have exactly what I need in the middle of a cooking crisis. Their ice cream selection is awesome. You can get a cheap ice cream sandwich or treat yourself to the latest Ben and Jerry's flavor.
And the things I buy never have dust on them.
It's all you can ask for. -

Not a bad stop if you need some good wines or a fine 22oz. Nice selection of 22's and sixers, most I have seen in such a small place. Good wine selection also.
The only hang up is that its not much of a "Delicatessen." More an upscale 7-11, with some assortments of frozen foods and fridge sandwiches.
Location is nice too - across from some fantastic food options. So grab a pizza from Zagi's and a sixer of a fine beer. What could be better?
Update:
I have since returned to give Saleh's a 5 star rating, they have won me over more and more since my initial 4 star review. They are super friendly and courteous merchants. Thanks for the great service!
Oh - and Zagi's is no more :(...but grab a pulled pork sandwich from Dante's BBQ (now in Zagi's space) and then a sixer from Saleh's - you wont be disappointed! -

Close to home, decent hours..I think they close at 11 but wish they could stay open later :( oh well it is family-owned and they need a break I'm sure...
Great selection of beer, wine, and tobacco..a little pricey but I don't mind paying extra for the selection and supporting a locally owned independent business.
OH yeah and they had stephen colberts americone dream ice cream, while everyone else was sold out!! -

I frequently stop by here to pick up a bottle of wine or some snacks. Good selection and everyone is friendly
I also love their ATM with $1 service charge. -

Walkable and huge selection of wines and beers. Plus some frozen foods to cook if I'm being lazy. The people are nice as well.

this place used to have the best cheese steak/philly sandwiches... why did they stop?? the sauce was excellent, and i have not been able to find a comparable sandwich in the seattle area.

I give this place 5 stars because the guys behind the counter are always friendly. When their freezer lost power last year they gave each kid that came in (word spread fast to the neighboring Loyal Heights Elementary) a free pint of ice cream! They made it seem like fun and the kids will never forget it!

A bad seed for a nice neighborhood. they are a dusty cigarette and beer dispensory, beef jerky and junk food. It's a shame that a mini-mart clutters Loyal Heights.
