By far, one of the weakest Aldi branches, hence that multiple negative reviews. The customer service is the weakest point most of the time you don't find anyone and in the few times you do they're extremely unhelpful and on the rude side , I had a very negative experience with the cashier, I can't remember his name, but he had multiple tattoos in his neck. Although some of their products are good, most of the time the shelves are half empty. It's one of those stores , where no one cares, definitely needs more stronger, managerial influence. I took the high decision of stopping going there after the gradual, but steady deterioration read more

I will never go back to this Aldi location... Might never set foot back in an Aldi's again. There were four people, waiting by their baskets with no cashiers at the registers, and nobody, even knowing which register to go to, or where the line began or ended. There was a lady and her son in front of me with a big basket and I just laid a few items towards the back of the belt... And the cashier told me I had to take my stuff off the belt so the lady would have room to put all of her stuff on the belt. The lady in front of me apologized I told her it was not her fault, but I complained about the disorganization of the process to the cashier and the cashier basically told me I didn't have to shop there if I didn't like the way they ran their store. I responded that that was not a very nice way to talk to a customer. The lady in front of me then butted in and said that my words were very aggressive. I told her that I wasn't speaking to her, that I was speaking to the cashier that she didn't have to, butt in. Then her teenage son (obviously suffering from his white privilege) came over to me and threatened to punch me if I talked to his mother "that way" again. I threatened to call the police and he threatened to call the police on me. The male manager was up at the other register and witnessed the whole thing, he didn't step in at all, as I was leaving, I saw him running to the back. This is the worst run Aldi's I have ever been in. Definitely not going back here. I should've read all of the other complaints about how poorly this location is run before setting foot inside. read more

I LOVE ALDI. Love love love. Great prices and selection. My only complaint is there were flies all over the produce section which was bizarre. This store is big and pretty organized, and in a shopping center with easy parking. read more

I was recently at the Thousand Oaks Aldi. I hope that this review reaches the upper management. As I was walking down one of the aisles and understandably distracted by my favorite foods, I suddenly stepped on a plastic rectangular price tag. It felt like a piece of slick ice and as I went down, was fortunately able to grab hold of a side shelf to keep me from actually falling. Being a senior, this really put me at unease! As I left the store, and now paying more attention to where I placed my feet, two large water puddles, NOT marked with yellow caution signs, sat around one of the cash register areas! On my way out after paying, a small harvest of little blueberries were scattered all over the exit way! More slippery obstacles! I'm feeling nervous now about returning because the floors were unsafe for vulnerable seniors as myself. Thank you for listening. An Aldi Fan read more

I think Aldi is going to be my new years go to grocery market because the deals and prices were so much more reasonable then the normal bigger name brand grocers I go to. As I'm trying to focus on getting Whole Foods (protein, veggies, dairy, and fruits) I needed to find a new store where I could get super good deals on produce and meats. After watching a lot of dietician videos and social media posts - seemed like a lot of people were hyping up Aldi. Came to this Thousand Oaks location over the weekend and I was very impressed. Located in the Janns marketplace it's a busier center but at least they have a lot of parking spots. I came around 11:30am which isn't late but now having explored, I think it's smart to come at opening as a lot of the meats and produce get picked over right away in the AM. I will say the prices were super good! My fruits and veggies were half the cost of my local markets and definitely cheaper then my farmers market (still will support farmers markets) but when money is tight and your doubling up on berries and veggies, this was a helpful cost reducer. Same with the meats - got two ribeyes for $17. That's normally close the price for one when I got to Ralph's, Traders or Target. The prices can't be beat. Walked out with two hug grocery bags for $120. Those bags were loaded with meats and protein though so the cost was really good. The reason I rated 4 stars are similar to other reviews. They do seem to only have one person working the register, which I feel like two would be much more helpful, especially on a weekend. I guess this is how they keep cost down, but you do get a long line to check out. Also, as I mentioned by them not having a lot of staff, I don't feel like the ingredients are regularly being rotated or stocked. Even though I came before 12 PM on a weekend, the steaks and meat section were pretty bare and I didn't see any staff really working the floor that anything new would be coming out so I had to take what I could get knowing I was probably missing out. Also, while the produce section was extremely reasonably priced, I did find that there were vegetables and fruit with mold, or that did not look the freshest. I definitely had to sift through that section most carefully. For the prices, I'll still definitely be buying my produce here, but if I do want items that are fresher and straight from the farm, that's definitely why I recommend sticking to your Farmers market. Given the value, I'll definitely be coming back and it's nice to know I can buy at least 70% of my groceries here. read more

Not my regular store but was nice and good selection. My regular Aldi was out of a regular product and this location wasn't so I went in for it. Wasn't disappointed. read more

One of my favorite grocery stores in town. They have some pretty good weekly deals. Their produce is usually pretty fresh but my favorite is their European snacks and chocolates. They usually only have one cashier open but the lines moves quickly read more

I shop at this ALDI twice a week and always have a great experience. Jacob is consistently friendly, helpful, and professional. The entire team works very efficiently, and whenever the checkout lines get longer, employees quickly open additional registers to help customers. It is clear that everyone works together to provide excellent service. Shopping here is always a pleasure. Thank you, Jacob and the whole team! read more

When Fresh & Easy was closed down in 2015-16, we were wondering what other similar cheap & reliable grocery stores would come to SoCal? The answer is Aldi, a German 1 of many chain stores. We are glad it did. Here, 1 may buy groceries of most essential items, vegetables, meats, cereals, dairy, and frozen items. Historically, this was our go-to for eggs and meat. However, after 2020 pandemic, the eggs are no longer cheap but very comparable to other grocery stores. Vegetables are the cheaper items besides breads & bagels available in this store we will always buy. Lines may be long when you check out since most the time, only one checkout line is available. Also not convenient thing is the fact that the buyer must bring a quarter in order to use its shopping cart, making it impossible for frail & handicapped shoppers to check-in & check-out the shopping carts easily. If you forget to bring a quarter, it will be tough luck since it will be hard to exchange a dollar bill for quarters at the register cash since it is always busy! I also notice, shoppers are mostly on their own since not many Aldi personnel are seen available at one time during my visit there. The store is well lit, well maintained, and clean. The cash register personnel is friendly and welcoming. I do highly recommend to shop here if you are bargain & budget shoppers like myself, with the caveat of always bringing a quarter with you if you want to use their shopping cart. read more

An ALDI can be a few cents cheaper but the service and selections are worse than other stores. Service: 0 stars, None, there is a cashier and the rest of the people are hiding in the back Selection: stagnant Quality: poor. 1 star They have very bad quality products. Management: 0 stars , they decided as a surprise to close the store for 1/2 a day so that they can move products around so that people walk around more and make impulsive purchases. Well, they could not even do this in an organized manner. See photos of the homemade signs( posted last minute) Do you want to carry a quarter to get a cart, bag your own groceries, and buy poor unhealthy products then go right ahead and shop here. Otherwise go to Trader Joes. Oh yea, learn to plan. Let this store close, there are plenty of better places to shop that have great prices. read more

I visited this Aldi location Sunday 4/19/2026 at 1:50 pm, and it will probably be the last time I visit due to the treatment that is given to the costumers by the shift manager. Simi valley is much better. read more

Whenever I go to Europe, I shop at Aldi. I was pleasantly surprised to see this grocery store in California. The prices are very reasonable on most items. The cashiers are super nice and friendly. Most of the time the aisles are clear and the shelves are stocked. I enjoy their seasonal items. read more

As I walked up to the entrance, I noticed the grocery carts chained together so I entered the store to inquire how to unlock a cart. The cashier handed me a quarter, told me to insert it into the slot on the cart which would automatically release the cart. Sure enough, it worked and I very quickly understood the need for this set up to minimize theft. The aisles are wide and the store is very clean. There is no deli counter, no butcher or a fresh bakery. The produce section had some organics and the prices were less than at a regular grocery store. There was a fair amount of frozen food as well as a case of frozen turkeys. I felt as thought I was in a dollar tree as there was a little of this and a little of that with random order. Lawn chairs were close to the water while another aisle had a small section of household items. Other than one cashier, I did not see any employees stocking the shelves or available to answer any questions. As I was leaving, I noticed another shopper trying to release a cart, so I handed her my quarter and explained the system. Parking is readily available in the lot out front. read more

Aldi has fabulous meats at decent prices. I make Vietnamese caramel pork belly frequently. Now I do not have to drive to the valley to get this product. I also love their fish: the salmon (any version) and trout is wonderful! I love the aisle of various household goods! Employees are great too. So thankful they are here in TO. read more

Ahhhhh I just love when stores are... BRAND SPANKING NEW!!! Everything is clean, organized and ready to be shopped! As I was driving by earlier this week, I saw that a brand new Aldi was in town and I decided to check them out today. They opened this Monday (12/14/2020) and are located at the Jann's Marketplace off Moorpark and Hillcrest. I have only been to Aldi once before at their Simi Valley location and decided to see what this one was all about. It's basically a smaller grocery store with a mix of brand name product that we all know (Coca Cola, Sriracha, Gatorade, etc.) alongside off-brands of product that look similar to the names we know, but at more reasonable price point. This store encompasses everything you probably need to survive in the kitchen, from fresh produce that looks better than some of the major grocery retailers to fresh dairy, beef, poultry and pork. The aisles have all of the staples, from bread and baking supplies, to pantry spices and canned foods, they have it all. The frozen department is full of goodies, they even have an area in the store for meals ready-to-go. Looking for some different styles of wine or beer, well Aldi has you covered. I really enjoyed walking down the aisles that have product labeled, "Here Today* Gone Tomorrow". Lots of great last minute gift ideas especially as we are heading into the last few days before Christmas. I will definitely be back and I'm so happy a new store is in town to support our beautiful community. Welcome to the neighborhood Aldi 1000 Oaks!!!! read more

This is a brand new Aldi in TO located in the Janss Marketplace across from Ulta. I've shopped at Aldi before in Oxnard and I feel like it's a hidden gem lol Pros: +Great prices on EVERYTHING (I even bought a 2-pack turtleneck long sleeve shirts here for $15 which was better than Target LOL) +Lots of organic products Neutral: ~Lots of random brand names that aren't found commonly in other grocery stores so it's kinda like the store's own brands Cons: -All the shopping carts are locked up and you need a get a quarter to unlock (I overheard this from a nearby customer and I didn't wanna hassle with that so I hauled all my goods in my reusable bag LOL) Overall, it's like a knock off of Trader Joe's but it's honestly not too shabby. read more

The service is terrible. I brought my own reusable tote, which is rectangular and sturdy. At check out, I emptied my items onto the belt and conveniently placed the tote on the cart where the cashier would place the items after scanning them. Instead, she moved my tote and started whipping my items onto the cart, letting them fall all over the place (we're talking tuna packets, so they slide right out of the shopping cart). I said, kindly, "if it's not too much trouble, could place them in the tote?" She said. "Oh." And then whipped the tuna packets past the tote and onto the ground. No apology. This soured my experience with Aldi, and I should've just saved gas and shopped at the nearby Target instead of driving out of my way just to be treated poorly. Aldi, do way better. Please. read more

Such a low selection versus other Aldi locations. Service is ok. Ambiance is definitely darker lit compared to others too.

On Tuesday, 6/23/25 I purchased an Aldi Brand Frozen Pizza. My kid would not eat it because the cheese would not stay on the crust. I returned it on 6/24/25 with my receipt. The cashier would only do a refund and would not give a replacement . I thought all Aldi's follicle same policy. Things different at Thousand Oaks Aldi and I am disappointed because I will be reluctant to trust them with trying new items . The returned item time was at 1:30 pm . read more

Welcome to California, and people -- get ready for an invasion.  Sprouting up everywhere is the international Aldi Market chain.  Over 1,500 US stores across 32 states, a recent press release says it serves more than 30 million customers each month.  Wow.  But it didn't start in the US, and it's all across Europe, too -- nearly 10,000 stores worldwide.  That's what we call a "player". Founded in Germany, I expected a lot more German products.  There were some, but none of the brands I've come to love.  In fact, very few brands I've ever heard of.  Most of the products carried are their own brand.  There's no butcher, or bakery.  Boo, one star demerit. Amazing prices, here's a sample: ========================= $1.99 dozen eggs $1.39 peanut butter $2.45 gallon of milk $0.85 loaf of bread It's new, but it has more of a 99 cents / Walmart feel than Trader Joe's, carrying a small amount of household items, lawn chairs, and other riff raff. Obviously, they've found a winning formula across the world. Location specific: Thousand Oaks, CA (Janss Mall) ========================================= * Largest Aldi I've seen * Very nicely organized * Staff, non-existent. One checker. read more

Love the Thousand Oaks Aldi's. If you are price conscience and still want great quality product, then this place is for you. It's clean, well organized and like their well packaged and fresh broccoli, assortment of potatoes, onions, avacado's and other vegetables. Great assortment of fresh bread too. I'm still smiling about my $0.45 per pound 16.8 lb Butterball turkey premium that I bought yesterday! read more

ALDI - Love Aldi's in Thousand Oaks! Clean and neat with quality product plus smoking deals! - Grocery Near Me - Thousand Oaks, California

First time at this location. The prices and quality of the produce were good. But what we couldn't get over was the reeking smell of urine! It hit us the minute we walked in the door. My son later had to use the bathroom and I nearly died from the smell. Not sure how much I want cheap prices if I have to take a hot shower a la silkwood style every time after. Everyone who worked there seemed pleasant. I felt so bad for them having to put up with working conditions like that all day. I really hope this was a one off and not the norm or we won't be going back. read more

I actually like shopping here but it's very frustrating because it seems that they are running a bait and switch operation. Every week they put out an ad featuring a really good price on some kind of meat or fish stating that it's good for two days, or "while supplies last". They then have run out early the first day. However, they do have a similar item for a higher price. This has happened so many times that we're giving up on Aldi's. read more

This store is as if a corner market met a garage sale and they fell in love and had a child, then named it "ALDI". You really have to take your time to see all they offer because it is merchandised so randomly. A friend told me they carried frozen pre-breaded Schnitzel that you simply fry in a bit of oil and she said it was quite good. I found it, along with many other German items that aren't necessarily easy to find elsewhere. German chocolates, frozen pretzels, coffee, Braunschweiger, and several mustards. We liked the schnitzel, and I also bought sweet potatoes. Though only one register was open, the clerk was fast, friendly and efficient, even when his line was 10 people deep. I saw no other employees during my 20 minute shopping visit, however I do understand most businesses are scarce on help these days. Pack your patience before you go. It was an experience. Check it out. read more

Ok, so I've been back there several times and the employee has been pleasant every time. I kinda feel bad that I ripped him on my previous review. I do like Aldi. The prices and quality are good. read more

Happy that we got this place open here in the area I actually come here quite often at least once a week Not sure if the staff gets some kind of training before being hired ive encountered a cashier threw everything in the shopping cart after scanning then threw a big watermelon on top of everything that's already in the cart like it's a ball?!! She really got too comfortable sitting on that chair when scanning European style read more

I honestly don't see any reason to shop in this store. The staff are not particularly friendly or helpful and in fact the cashier (Francisco) was outright rude and offensive. It felt like shopping in a flea market. Yes, it's clean and new, but most everything is a unknown brand and lots of low-to-mediocre quality items. I only shopped there once and left feeling very disappointed. I shop a lot and tend to look for a better experience than I had at Aldi. read more

Love Aldi so much. All products are so fresh & great prices The environment is welcoming & clean The weekly promotions are super Aldi is my favorite supermarket read more

ALDI is a discount grocery chain that started in Germany in 1948. My kids always shop there in Chicago. When I noticed the opening of Aldi in TO, I wanted to try. The location is great, it locates at the Janss Marketplace, next door of Karma India restaurant. The store is very clean, organized. Supply all the cooking necessities. I went there this morning 9am when the store opened. The shopping carts need a quarter to get off the chain, then return the money when the cart was reconnected the chain with the front cart. It's easy to manage. I love the idea to use quarter to use the cart, which make the parking place free of shopping carts. I also like the long tables at the store front that we can bag our purchase after checking out. They charge 10 cents for each bag, which is located at the check out place that customers can pick the exact amount of bags they need. The store reminds me the "Fresh and Easy" stores, my favorite neighborhood grocery store. All items priced reasonably. I hope the store doing well, especially during the tough period. read more

The private label food products are good quality. The service leaves much to be desired. Cashiers are non-communicative and sometimes rude. They refuse to place scanned items in my bag, even though I hold it open for them to place the items quickly. Typically, only one cashier, causing long waits. Your 'cousins' at Trader Joes, by contrast, really do it right! read more

ATTN: CHECK YOUR RECEIPTS BEFORE LEAVING THE STORE! ! Cashier Maria has the worst attitude and shouldn't be dealing with customers. Not only that, but she rings up items incorrectly --she has double charged me for single items multiple (4-5) times over the past couple of months. By the time I look at my receipt, I'm usually already home, so I don't bother to go back to get reimbursed. Sigh. Today, right after I paid, I looked at the receipt and noticed that she double charged me again! Can she really be that negligent? Or is there something criminal going on here? Can't say for sure but when I went back (a few minutes after I paid) and asked her to reimburse the overcharge, she was extremely rude and said "I'm not helping you" and then she walked away, presumably to go on a break. The manager did reimburse me, but it is a hassle to deal with the employees there. If the TO Aldi location didn't have such great prices, I would give one star for the horrendous customer service. read more

Love this grocery store! With inflation running rampant, this is the solution to high food costs. Their produce is delicious but needs to be consumed in the next few days. This is how they hold down costs. They have fun products outside of groceries, keep stopping by to check them out. Milk, bread, meat, and canned items are reasonably priced. Relax and shop slowly knowing you are saving money with their products. read more

I love this Aldi! Don't forget to search their social media for great new products. I come here at least once a week!

I actually really like shopping here. They have some unique European products the wife and I like.

We come here every week for groceries and have had mostly good experiences. We don't find everything we need here so always have to go to a second grocery store to get our weekly groceries. The stuff that we do get here is okay quality (mostly prepackaged produce, pickled food, canned food, oat milk and eggs) and great prices for California. One of the downsides is that their produce including kale, salad boxes, and radishes go bad easily. Also - most of the packages aren't recyclable. Staff has been friendly every time we've been here. read more

The WORST online / curbside service ive ever experienced. Theyve given my food to someone else They have made me ait 25 min at curbside just to tell me they had no idea i had arrived They have cancelled my order in error So many issues, its commical at this point Id rather pay more elsewhere read more

A lot of people writing the reviews of ALDI are super ignorant. This is a store that has a large selection of good quality European exported goods. It doesn't compare to a "knOcK oFf TRadEr JoeS" because these are two different stores. Trader Joes is a knock off for many foods cuisines and I feel bad for people who consider trader joes high quality... anyways...selection varies but I think this change in products makes the store exciting. Has all the basics and more. read more

I hate this cheap store, wouldn't recommend. The prices are so low but the stuff they sell just doesn't feel right. The food isn't even that good. I've seen people complain about stuff being in they're food. Plus, there is only 1 SINGLE cashier open and like what? 10 people waiting in line! Just today I went and the cashier literally just LEFT. we waited like 10 minutes due to who knows what. 1 star. I would rate it -5 if i could. read more

I had stopped in here after work, and it was...interesting. I'd never been to one of these so apparently you have to know what you're doing. Some of the produce was expired. The main thing that annoyed me was the checkout process. No one told me how the bag thing works or...just doesn't. The girl was halfway across the store, she kind of flopped down and rang my stuff up and tossed it in my cart. Yeah, tossed. I thought, "wait, no bags?" She didn't even ask me if I had one or wanted one, and with this miserable "I just want to go home" attitude she had, I didnt dare ask about if they were available. You get what you pay for, I guess. read more
