    Quality/Quantity - One of the nicer Whole foods I have been to…read more And today is Friday. $1 oysters! Seafood department - Fully stocked and fully staffed! Too bad we have a full schedule and planned a great lunch and dinner (well dinner was just okay...). FYI, you have to go to the seafood department to order your oysters. And on Fridays, it can be a long wait, so plan accordingly. Still good service. Service at the seafood department seemed VERY good; well we are in Napa. Decent local selection of beers. Decent selection of wines (unlike Trader Joes next door). Again, we are in Napa! Atmosphere - Nice, decent size location; see pictures. Plenty of indoor or outdoor seating. Plenty of mall parking. Open 7 days a week from 8am to 9pm. Service - Always good, no matter how busy or not they are. Thank you. Price - Above average, they do not have the nickname "Whole Paycheck" for no reason, lol. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success since 1980. I have watched you evolve since 1989 when you first came to Palo Alto, CA to what you are today!! Keep up all the good work. 2017 - Amazon acquired. Please keep working on lowering all your prices. :)

    I ordered a sandwich ahead of time for pick up to save me time on my way to an event. Basic turkey…read moresandwich on hoagie bread with cheese and such. They have NO options for flavors of turkey, just the one that is like roast chicken, and only dutch crunch or Hoagie for rolls according to the employee who took my order which seems wierd. They have a whole bakery but only 2 types of rolls at the deli? I never caught the name of the employee who took my phone order, pretty sure it was a guy. The first time I called, the deli picked up the phone and left it on the counter without greeting me at all. I heard someone laughing and talking to a Danielle, then they hung up on me without saying a word. I had to call back and tell the customer service person(Elle?), who then went and told them to pick up before transferring a second time. When I arrived for pick up, I waited a minute in line before asking a passing employee behind the counter if they had my order ready. He asked the guy and gal standing around laughing behind the pizza bar if they knew about a phone order. They did not. He asked me who took the order but did not ask my name or check the fridge where they typically put sandwiches made ahead of time, just went to get a supervisor when I did not know who took my order. As the supervisor comes out and again asks me who took my order(shouldn't the employee who grabbed you have told you I already said I did not know?) One of the young ladies actively making sandwiches went into the fridge, pulled out my sandwich which had my name on it, and gave it to me. I paid and left because I was in a rush and now wasted several minutes for no reason. When I finally open the sandwich it is missing multiple ingredients I asked for and the tomato slices are SO thin you could literally see through them. The joker that sliced them on the machine literally set it for less than a 1/4inch thickness which is painfully stingy. The sandwich was not worth the 12bucks they charged and the service was downright clownish with it's disorganization. If you want a sandwich, GO ANYWHERE ELSE. If you want a great one, go to brown's valley market on the opposite side of town by first st, at least they have multiple choices for meat, bread, and veggies. Store was clean but there were too many employees visibly goofing off on the floor and not communicating with each other about work.

This…read moreis where you find everything you need for the perfect picnic or dinner featuring hyper-local everything! Don't feel like packing a picnic or prepping or cooking? Good thing Sonoma Market is known for their sandwiches and deli and fresh prepared meals. You'll find a really fun selection of local cheeses, condiments, produce, and baked goods that bigger grocery stores don't carry. You'll spend a little more, but the shopping experience is more curated and atmospheric, and the products speak for themselves. I stopped in recently while on a short trip to Sonoma, specifically for salsa, some kind of dip or spread for crackers, and a cheese or two. I spent awhile browsing because that's the best part, and left with exactly what I needed (proud and amazed I stuck to my budget haha). I bought a fantastic bleu cheese, brie, a cantina style salsa, and this whipped, layered, tomato-basil dip made of ground almonds, avocado, sour cream, tomatoes, and herbs. Kind of a lot going on, but it was so good. It's always fun to see what you'll find here. Like a locally made gluten free apple pie, the perfect bouquet of flowers, or a freshly baked loaf of sourdough.

A commitment to better food. The store could sell so much more food than it does, they have no idea. But people want quality food at the hot bar not what they have there now. Overall, the store is pretty good but they're hot food display is an absolute embarrassment for the store. It's always old picked over food or just empty. If you come in here at five 5 o'clock or after, it's always a disgusting display. Very sad to see.

    Review: The "Unexpected" Mystery of Trader Joe's Broccoli Cheddar Soup…read more I walked into Trader Joe's expecting a warm hug in a bowl. What I got was a cold-blooded betrayal in a plastic tub. Let's talk about the "Unexpected" part of the name. I assumed it referred to an extra sharp kick or perhaps a delightful hint of Parmesan. Instead, the "unexpected" twist was the complete and total absence of the color yellow. This soup is white. Not "off-white" or "cream," but "Victorian ghost" white. It looks less like a hearty bistro meal and more like a bowl of Elmer's glue that someone accidentally dropped a single, lonely floret of broccoli into. As for the flavor? If you're looking for cheddar, keep looking. I've had more "cheddar flavor" from breathing near a closed box of Cheez-Its. It's as if the soup was made in a room where someone once whispered the word "cheese" three years ago. It's impressively bland, a feat of culinary engineering that manages to taste like warm, thickened nothingness. I'm not saying it's the worst thing I've ever put in my mouth, but if I wanted a bowl of hot, broccoli-scented library paste, I would have made it myself for half the price. Rating: 1/5 Stars. The only thing "unexpected" was how much I regretted my life choices while eating it. Trader Joe's, I still love you 5/5 stars

Well, I ended up eating the carrot cake samples, so good. A little too sweet for me. I also wanted to check out their wine selection here since we are in Napa. Atmosphere - Decent size location. Cool decor, see pictures. Expect to see a better selection of wines since we are in Napa! Open 7 days a week from 8am to 9pm. Plenty of mall parking. Service - Self service; friendly, quick, and easy check out. Thank you. Price - Reasonable and affordable. Owner Comment - Congrats on your company's success since 1967 (1958 if you count Pronto Markets). 1979 - Sold to Theo Albrecht, the owner of Aldi Nord. 2024 - 569 stores.

This store is everything that target is not as far as the grocery side of the business goes. If you're looking for general merchandise, clothing, TVs, electronics, etc., then go there. Here you can get sushi, hot Chinese food, fresh prepared deli meals, even fresh made sandwiches. There's also a large freshly stocked produce department, including a floral department. And unlike Target, they've made a considerable investment in their beer, wine, and liquor selection. They even offer a 30% off discount on wine if you buy six bottles, which I've never seen. It's obviously a focus item for them because it is stacked throughout the store. The only problem is that their prices are so high that it forces you into a six pack. You'll find all the items you would expect to find in your usual large grocer, including pharmaceuticals, but no pharmacy. Here you can also buy rotisserie chickens and tri-tip ($10-$20). You can also find bagged ice and propane tanks to rent. I'm a little disappointed by many of these one star slappers because they're being shortsighted on a personal small thing or detail while overlooking the larger picture. Whatever small things this store gets wrong are easily outweighed by what it gets right. The photos included should convince you of that.

It's a pretty small deli located near a brewery and I believe a public market. Parking is not the best but we were able to squeeze into the nearby parking lot. The interior is cute, I'll be at small. It's like a small deli front with sandwiches and a couple of like jarred or canned things or dried things that you could shop for, but the focus is really the deli here. This review is for the deli sandwich only, we can't comment on the other deli products, though it seems like their customers love their products and they were really helpful and friendly to everyone looking We got the muffaletta. Unfortunately, they were out of the standard bread so we swapped it for a baguette and no regrets. The sandwich itself was so good nice and salty, intense flavors, but also melt in your mouth. We're so glad we decided to stop by here and I definitely would like to come back to try their other sandwiches and maybe their deli offerings.

It was across the street from where we just had lunch at Scala Osteria. We got a lot of attention right away. Since most things are weighed per pound, you have to ask for specific things and they will then get it for you. They had a number of beans from Rancho Gordo. I found out about the pickled vegetables from a Rancho Gordo email stating that theirs was the best. They had a small container for $10 in the fridge by the pound. They had a number of gourmet sandwiches that you can't find anywhere else. My husband loves porchetta sandwiches from Sausalito at the Joinery. That's why we had to come here when we found out that they had porchetta sandwiches freshly made. They also sell raw porchetta and porchetta shoulder for 16 and 10 respectively. We opted to buy the cooked porchetta for $20 a pound. The staff member instructed us to bake it at 250° in the loosely wrapped foil for 15 minutes to freshen it up. I'll give an update after we eat it. :)
