Just wanted to send a quick note about Benny, the store manager at Erewhon in Calabasas…read more Our travel AYSO team came down from Northern California for the finals for our community volunteer sponsored soccer organization, and we stopped by to grab drinks for the kids. Benny helped make sure everything was ready right on time, which honestly made a big difference with a bunch of tired players and parents trying to keep things moving between games. What stood out was how easy and positive the whole interaction was. Benny clearly runs a tight ship and the people working there reflect that. Everyone we interacted with was helpful and on top of things. Benny even stepped in to improve the throughput for all smoothies. When someone treats their job like they own the place, that's special. That's shareholder / owner behavior, not staff behavior. It starts with values, with leading and being consistent in following those values. The outcome is culture, and that creates true scale of the vision and every team member adopting the culture. This is actually the first time I've experienced this level of service at a grocery store, so I figured it was worth mentioning. If Benny hired these folks, he's doing something right. Anyway, just wanted it to be known that if you stop by that location, you'll be taken care of. And for what it's worth, I don't usually send notes like this.

I guess I'm on a mission to see all the stores. This was my least favourite. Parking was chaotic,…read moreand the staff, w the exception of Milo wasn't as attentive as I've become accustomed to. We went during lunch time so I'm aware that was part of the parking lot fullness, but the staff had this almost apathetic attitude. I saw a piece of pizza I hadn't seen and wanted to try. A couple employees were having a convo at the counter. I just waited to see how long they were going to stand there. Longer than you'd expect. I mentioned Milo earlier. Rockstar in the cafe, gave us samples, answered questions about things I didn't see. I was told to try the battered portobellos. I guess they didn't have them that day but I appreciated that Milo checked. That was the most pleasant experience and Milo's customer service was aligned with what I've come to expect. Checkout was lacklustre. This is the first store I've been at that had a conveyor belt. I went through twice. The first person seemed like he didn't want to be there. The second I asked about the new membership tiers and she wasn't sure then she was surprised at my level. I got clarification around the program from someone at my store, and she showed me where vip line is. It just wasn't a vibe I've been used to over any of the stores I've been to. Maybe it's calabasas, idk. I can say I went. 8 down, 3 to go. Ya, Erewhon is probably my personality atp. Ah well, there's worse things!

The food is always wonderful & the people are always nice & helpful…read more I would like to single out Eddie in the prepared food section particularly for his outstanding service, cordial manner & knowledge. On 1 particular occasion, a few weeks back, I was looking for a product & he looked in back & said he didn't have any. As I continued to shop at the store, Eddie comes running down the aisle I was in to tell me he found the item I was looking for in a different location. He handed me the item. You don't see customer service like that very often these days! I was really impressed with his professionalism & diligence in helping me get the product I wanted. Terrific employee who should be commended for his outstanding service!

I'm a local resident and a regular customer of the Bristol Farms Woodland Hills location, and I've…read morealways enjoyed shopping here--until this experience. During a recent visit, I picked up a bag I intended to purchase and briefly used my phone to take a photo. A manager approached me and asked, "Are you buying that bag?" in a tone that felt unnecessarily confrontational. What escalated the situation further was that after I requested corporate contact information from another associate, the same manager approached me again and continued the interaction in front of other customers, without attempting to de-escalate. Since then, I have made multiple efforts to address this matter directly. I contacted corporate, left a message, and was provided an email address which I confirmed multiple times--however, the email was incorrect and my message was not delivered. To date, I have not received any follow-up. I understand store policies, but professionalism and respectful communication--especially at the management level--are equally important. I hope this matter is taken seriously and addressed appropriately.

I now know definitively where to find it. They've also added the most incredible soft serve ice cream to their offerings. I also spotted that they now serve prosciutto which I was unaware of in the past and they have what appeared to be some delicious looking Caesar salads premade for about $15. I'm currently completely addicted to this amazing peanut nougat chocolate that they have. It's $5.50 a pop so as my original review states this place is Not exactly the $.99 cent only store but it's amazing selection of goods shows the purveyors attention to selection. They're keen on what they bring into the store and it shows. I've had a few bottles of wine from here. They were all yummy. I've yet to try any of their cheese, but it looks fantastic. As I go, I spend more and more time cruising what they have- they always have fine looking produce and I know occasionally they carry chanterelles. I do hope to scoop up some of those on a future visit (in season only of course). It does seem they really honor the seasonal pallet of things and from what I can tell most of their produce is local. They've also added a really lovely outdoor patio. All in all I'm very grateful this place in the canyon. They've saved me on a number of occasions when no dinner recipes came quickly to mind or when a soup hankering struck!

First time here and who knew it was so close to home?! My hubby saw The Old Place on the travel…read morechannel, food paradise show so we had to come down and check it out. We made reservations to dine inside and the food was great. Big portions so we all had leftovers to take home. The service was great and the property feels like you're so far into the mountains. We had great music provided by local musicians, who play for tips so if you want to support them, bring cash! I would come again but this time dine outside and so I can sit under the trees and watch the beautiful peacocks. They have tons of outside seating. We had sourdough bread, broccoli salad, wine, brown ale, half chicken with salad and loaded bake potatoe, fish special, and bone in steak with salad and bake potatoes. We finished it off with mixed berry cobbler and chocolate lava cake. Delicious!

However, we were surprised by the pricing for what is essentially a takeout operation: $28 for a steak sandwich, $24 for a chicken sandwich, $24 for a breakfast burrito, $17 for bread and butter, and $9 for a cookie--all with a required 18% gratuity. We hoped the quality of the food would justify the cost, but unfortunately, it did not. After waiting a long time for our order, we finally sat down to eat, only to be very disappointed. * The Fries: These were thick, over-seasoned, and over-fried potato wedges. * The Steak Sandwich: Consisting only of steak and onion, it was incredibly dry and unappealing. * The Burrito: Entirely bland and lacked flavor with eggs and over fried bacon bits and potatoes * The Coffee: Even the iced lattes at the coffee shack were bad - tasted very milky with very little espresso and warm. Our mocha latte was horrible as the chocolate powder was not mixed well, clumpy on the bottom of the cup The meal felt greasy and unhealthy, and despite being hungry, we couldn't even finish half of it. The food was absolutely disgusting. We threw everything in the trash bin. I wouldn't recommend this spot and certainly won't be returning. It felt very much like a one time money grab as no one in our family will be revisiting this place. Even Jack in the Box would be better.

From the moment we arrived, everything felt welcoming, but what really made the night unforgettable was our server, Marquis. Marquis went above and beyond in every way. he was attentive, friendly, and genuinely made us feel celebrated. He anticipated our needs without us even having to ask, and his positive energy added so much to the experience. You can tell he truly cares about his guests and takes pride in what he does. Thanks to Marquis and the wonderful staff, my birthday felt extra special and memorable. I'm so grateful for such a great experience and would absolutely come back again. Highly recommend Cambria Hotel, especially if you're lucky enough to be served by Marquis!

Everything was fresh, delicious, and plentiful. The cheese boat is simple yet spectacular. I'll get that again for sure. The bread itself is addicting. You can tell it's freshly made. We also had grape leaves and baclava (both perfect). We kind of over ordered but we had plenty left over for another full meal for the both of us. The woman working the counter was very nice and helpful. We ate there this time and the dining room and restrooms were both very clean. I like that they offer a "healthier" soda, called Stubborn Soda I believe. I don't usually drink soda but tried a few of these flavors and enjoyed them all. We look forward to coming back!

I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant…read more When I arrived, I observed a kitchen employee lying down on one of the benches and taking a nap in the dining area. This was very unusual and not professional. More concerning, my wife and I ordered a salad, and shortly after eating, both of us developed stomach pain and diarrhea within a few hours. Based on the timing and symptoms, we strongly suspect the food may have been the cause. I contacted the restaurant the next day and spoke with a staff member (name starting with "A"). She took my number and said management would call me back. No one followed up. I called again a few days later, and was told the same thing -- still no response. It has now been about a month with no communication or resolution. Very disappointed with both the food quality and the lack of customer service. I would not recommend.
