I found out about Embarc a couple years ago while at the California state fair. They have multiple locations throughout California. I love the wide selection of edibles they have and the prices are phenomenal. They have flower, vapes etc.. The customer service is always pretty good, I have only had one not so great experience with one employee. Embarc is located in the same shopping center as Starbread and Seafood City. They also have have daily specials and you can view their menu on the Embarc app. read more

Why say that you're open until 9 if you're going to lock the doors and turn off the lights at 8:45. I also work at a dispensary & I would literally NEVER think to close my doors early. Extremely lazy & honestly pathetic. Horrible business etiquette & you might as well change your hours to 8:45 if you're gonna be whiny babies about the time. If you want business, don't close 15 minutes early. That's the entire point of saying you close at a specific time. read more

Embarc has been my go to dispensary for smokes. Been to their locations in Alameda, Tracy, and now Sacramento. They typically also have a spot at the State Fair. This Sac spot is pretty convenient with plenty of parking. It is very clean and well organized. They made some recent changes in which most items are now self-serve which is cool. But they stopped accepting credit cards which is my preferred payment (gotta get my airline miles! LMAO). So be ready with cash payment or they do accept debit card, and they have an ATM inside the shop. They offer a wide variety of selections from flowers, prerolls, etc. and you can preview product selections on their website and order online. Affordable prices and they also have some cool daily deals! Typically I'll get a mix of hybrid and indica - yep gotta get some good sleep Hahaha This visit I just got some Stiiizy Skywalker OG indica since it was May 4th (may the force be with me Lol). Yep it's good, got some good sleep for sure ;) Staff have always provided good service and are friendly. Will be back again soon. puff puff pass Oh btw this location is so convenient that if you already have the munchies hahaha there is Jollibee or Chowking at the same plaza! LOL read more

I had a huge online order for pickup, but when I arrived it apparently didn't save in the system. Isaac immediately stepped in and offered to help grab everything off the shelves for me. I'm not very familiar with a lot of the products, so having someone knowledgeable guide me through it was incredibly helpful. What really stood out was how efficient he was. While helping me, two other customers came up with questions, and he managed to carry on multiple conversations while grabbing products for all three of us at the same time. He stayed calm, quick, and professional the entire time -- honestly pretty impressive to watch. Thanks to Isaac, I was in and out much faster than I expected. Great customer service and a really positive experience. read more

Normally pretty decent but they gotta either publish a new schedule or clearly indicate they are closing early on the site or something... I drove 35 min just to patronize this business (when I could got some shit way closer.) I get there at 8:40 and they say they're closed...even tho it's says open on the sign and the door says until 9:00 pm. Horrible...hella people just strolling out for another 20 min after I get there when I coulda been in and out.... AND I already had my order confirmed for pick up! Smh..do better y'all. This is a REOCCURRING ISSUE just read the reviews!! CHANGE YOUR HOURS or stop closing early..I spent HELLA bread here just to have my time wasted like I'm asking for a favor to spend money on ur products.. read more

I hate that I even have to write this because this has been my favorite dispensary for a long time. But this is now the third time in a row where I placed an online order, got a message saying it was ready for pickup, drove from Galt to Sacramento(closest dispensary to me), waited in line, and then was told they didn't have what I ordered. I understand things sell out. That's not the issue. The issue is being told my order is ready when it's not, and then having to figure everything out once I'm already there. What made this even more frustrating is the constant back and forth. I would try to pick something else, even from the store's own website while standing there, be told "okay," they'd go grab it and come back saying they don't have it. This happened multiple times in one visit. At one point, I wasn't even asking for anything specific anymore. I was just going based on what I was told was available. I was told they had hybrid badder (concentrate) instead, so I said okay and chose one. They went to "grab it", came back, and said they didn't have it. So, AGAIN.. I agreed to something else THEY SAID was available, and again it wasn't there. This kept happening until I was told the only thing available was sativa sugar, which I had already said I didn't want. I was very clear about what I was looking for. I asked for indica badder, and when that wasn't available, I was open to other options. I kept being told things were available when they weren't. I also want to be clear that this isn't about staff being unfriendly. Everyone has been EXTREMELY polite. The issue is the system and how orders and inventory are being handled. The only time I experienced any attitude was during one visit when the employee was clearly frustrated having to go back and forth multiple times as the online order line built up behind me, which honestly just shows how inefficient the process is. I've always been patient and respectful, and I make sure to tip every time I come in. Even the last two times this happened, I still tipped. That's why this feels especially frustrating. On a previous visit, I ended up spending way more than I planned just because nothing I originally ordered or chose as an alternative was actually available. On my most recent visit, after all the back and forth, I ended up leaving without buying anything. I really think the online ordering system and inventory need to be more accurate so people aren't driving out, waiting, and then running into this same situation. This used to be my go-to spot, which is why this is so disappointing I will not be returning. read more

Ran out of tree while in sac and thank god they got a Embarc there! I even had a $5 off so I used that. The place where they actually sell the tree is smaller than the one in Fresno IMO but it does have a big waiting area and it looks nice too. The service was good. My budtender was nice. I think she even told me since I'm new at that location I got another discount on top, kinda forgot how much but I think I only paid $25 or a lil under for a strawberry shortcake traditional eighth. Just glad to have something to smoke on the way back home. There was even a smoke shop next door which was convenient cus we ran out of wraps. read more

Customer service isn't terrible honestly! front desk people are nice and welcoming. But fake products. I only buy turn pods, pens, and pod packs. I was sold fake products. the turn pen did NOT hit, wax was almost red??? and when i tried to verify the authenticity on the OFFICIAL TURN app, it failed. saying it failed to verify authenticity. Do not buy from here. they also ALWAYS give me the wrong strain from weed maps. like almost every time. so don't buy from here. They never check their weed maps orders and the product is too expensive and tax to be FAKE!!!! I'll drop pictures below. but be careful with what weed you buy. i'd recommend toasting dispensary. Farther in sac, but no tax and REAL product. Be safe everyone! read more

I've been a loyal customer at Embark on Mack Road for a couple years and have spent a lot of money here. Normally the experience is solid. Today, though, was a masterclass in how one employee can turn a simple situation into a frustrating one. I placed an online order this morning and, about 15 minutes later, received the text saying it had been packed and was ready for pickup. Great. I drove over right away. When I got there, the security gate was closed because apparently they were having an issue opening it and needed a manager. Stuff happens -- not a big deal. The problem was the phone call I had with the employee who answered, Kenneth. Instead of just explaining the situation, he repeatedly cut me off, refused to answer basic questions, and generally acted like I was somehow bothering him by calling to ask why the store had told me to come pick up an order when the gate was literally closed. Simple questions like: "Is a manager on the way?" "Do you know how long this might take?" ...were apparently too much to handle. The call ended with me feeling like I was the difficult one -- even though I still had zero information. So I called back and asked for a manager. Within two minutes the manager calmly explained the situation and told me exactly what was happening. Which raises the obvious question: Why couldn't Kenneth just do that the first time? This wasn't a complicated problem. It just required basic communication and basic customer service. Embark is usually great, which is why this stood out so much. But if management is reading this, you might want to check in on whoever is putting Kenneth on the phones. Because if your system is "tell customers to come pick up their order and then treat them like an inconvenience when they ask why the gate is closed," that's probably not the vibe you're going for. read more

Anthony is the man!!! Super friendly, super helpful, and he had me laughing the whole time. Dispos make me nervous sometimes, but Anthony made me feel right at home! I told him my budget, and he helped me find some real good stuff. Thank you again man, you rock! read more

I went to Embarc in Sacramento the African American with long dreads or braids assisted me. I explained I did not want anything that would actually get me high. No THC. All I wanted was CBD gummies, pain relief. He showed me a few selections and I explained again. No THC repeatedly throughout the whole conversation. I am by no means knowledgeable in marijuana products. With his suggestions I purchased two canister out gummies. Upon arriving home I looked and they both had THC in them. I immediately called their business and I was told that I could return them for the products that I was actually requesting. After waiting out line again the second time I ended up speaking with the manager and she immediately told me no returns. I explained to her that this is what your employee suggested for me to purchase. Let me say this again. Your employee suggested that these are the items I should purchase. Now I'm stuck with two canisters of $40 worth of product that I will not use. I explained that to her in detail the packages were not opened. I had my receipt in hand. If this is how they treat someone that comes in, that is not a habitual marijuana user. It is just unacceptable when someone that does not understand what they're purchasing and you ask for their essence and they give you a product that is 50/50 and then another product that contained a higher dose of THC. Employees that do not know or listen to the customer that they are selling is a high risk situation as is just ridiculous to be in a position that they're work there. Maybe not trying the products while at work. read more

Loved this place and staff are generally cool people until today when I spoke with Leia. I came in asking specifically for terpene-rich pre-rolls and wanted to discuss products using proper industry terminology (terpenes, lab results, profiles). Unfortunately, the employee, Leia, relied heavily on slang terms like "gassy" and "creamy," and when I explained that I use different terminology, her approach became cocky, borderline dismissive, and disrespectful. A professional budtender should be able to adjust their communication style to the customer instead of reacting defensively. There's a big difference between helpful education and talking down to someone. I hope management encourages better customer service skills. read more

Everything in the store is 30% off Woot Woot Hunter was GREAT!! I stocked up on all my FAVORITES!

Thank you for the response from the owner, I really appreciate that you listened to me as a customer and took my feedback into consideration even though I was upset! Just from that I am willing to give you a chance again with an open mind. I am updating this review to four stars because the staff has always been excellent in helping me and service has been quick and efficient. read more

I placed an online order, which was accepted. I drive from Folsom to pick it up; only to be told they no longer carry that item. Couldn't they remove it from their website, or text me? Horrible business. read more

The customer service was ??? The selection is great $$ is comparable to everyone else. However My issue was with inoperable products. I drove way out of my way to give Embarc a try. I got my product home and it didn't work. I spent hours researching the product thinking ( I'm a moron) Nooooope ... Stoner yes, moron NO! I return to exchange the product; and, the second one doesn't work. I go back in to return it for something different and I'm told by the clerk, she couldn't give me a full refund.... EXCUSE ME ? I DROVE 30 MILES ONE WAY TO PURCHASE THE PRODUCT, AND 30MILES HOME. Then; I returned the next day driving another 30 miles (90 miles) to have no product ( medicine) and your going tobtell me YOUR NOT going to refund the total $$$. Well NOW YOU HAVE AN ANGRY CUSTOMER WHO'S NOT BUYING ANYTHING FROM YOU EVER AGAIN. AN ANGRY CUSTOMER WHO'S GOING TO POST ABOUT YOUR BUSINESS PRACTICES. The clerk ended up refunding ALL OF MY MONEY But I won't be back I was already frustrated and upset that I had to go through all of that but then to be told you're not going to give me all my money; that put me over the top. You didn't need to cause additional anxiety and stress. But You did! This started out a problem with merchandise and it turned into something else. read more

Says they close at 9pm online. Okay cool get there around 845pm and security says theyre not letting anyone in right now. Why say youre open till 9 then close before that. Big waste of time and gas. Some people work all day so this is the only time ppl can come. Very disappointing outcome to the end of day of a long hard day ngl. please fix your times to 830 if you guys dont want to work till 9. read more

Bought a faulty product but they don't offer returns. Only exchanges for the same item. Got the same item since it was not useable and again it's all clogged, wax spitting up. Not happy it was like an almost 80$ purchase. For something that doesn't work. Even asked if could return for a cheaper brand that I know work better. Never again. Why would I want to exchange for the same product after already receiving a bad one. The first one should have been had no issues. But yet second one was worse read more

Didn't scan for a review but Brian (budtender) did an amazing job assisting. Give that fool ah raise!

Literally the best club and selection of things!! Sad I don't work in South Sac anymore because I was here weekly. Most ALL of the staff is great, including the security gaurds outside. Curtis was super patient with all my questions. Rhoda is cool! They have an app where you can place online orders + pick up; they're pretty quick with it too! The app with them allows you to earn points so I almost always have a $5 off coupon to use when I place an order. They email you with promo/deals too. Make SURE to come through when they have any anniversary or event happening! I've gotten goodie bags with purchase, including literally hundreds of dollars' worth of merch and goods for spending X amount (which I was doing anyway lol) or brand reps with goodies present, so if you "buy this today, you get this for free" type of thing happening. One time they had a snack booth outside with sodas, chips, candy, photo props, the whole nine! It was always a nice surprise coming in! read more

Embarc FTW!!! Oh, for those not in the know, that's.....For The Win.... ;-) We see a lot of advertisements and billboards around town for cannabis delivery, but where do you go if you want to pick up your own ish? Well... I can say that I've been to dispensaries from Midtown Sacramento to Bougie Napa, and then there's Embarc. What I liked about my first, and only visit thus far, there's a shopping complex parking lot so parking was easy. There was a security guard right out front so I felt relatively safe. It IS located off Mack Road and near Stockton Blvd, so I probably wouldn't be stopping here after dark or maybe not even alone, but that's my own safety concerns. They have a very nice lounge area and it didn't feel like you were getting buzzed in for a prison visit. The displays are very nicely curated with visual appeal, product availability, and my personal favorite -- Daily Deals! You'll find discount sales on every day of the week, in addition, they have an app called Embarc and you can accumulate rewards via that. I found the experience to be very welcoming, and it's usually a good rule of thumb to bring cash to a dispensary anyways. Thank you to Angel for being polite and assisting with my first visit. read more

First time coming to this location, I live in Roseville and thought we would check it out since we were out running errands. I got to say this place aesthetic was top notch I loved it had to take some pictures and videos to post to show others! We were greeted by a gentleman with great customer service! It started getting packed quickly, the person who served us was great as well! However we did not realize on our receipt after we left we did not get a first time discount :( but it's okay, we will still come back!!! I highly recommend this place read more

if you're coming here don't listen to the employee who is probably high, bring cash. they charged my card as an atm withdrawal. and the receipt didn't match the math. she gave me back about $4 and the receipt said it was $31 but got charged for $40 where did the other $5 go? who knows. also since it ran my card as an ATM charge my bank charged me another $3 ‍ why wouldn't they disclose there's all these fees is beyond me. avoid this spot. unprofessional read more

Overall good products and one great cashier but the cashier I had today needs help or another job...

embark your prices are high taxes are high and they ALLWAYS CLOSE EARLY I don't recommend going to this place

Got helped by this brunette lady & she definitely was trying to help but completely missed the mark when i reiterated how i wanted a specific brand if she could make the deal including the brand of my choosing, & she presents me with a pair of carts that i hadn't realized when purchasing were connected canna carts instead of what i asked for.. so finding out in the car that wasn't I heard felt bad, too late to return aswell cause I had opened it but really the brands looked identical, & the move from her felt intentional. read more

My first visit started off bad when it wouldn't accept my form of payment so I went to the in store ATM to make a withdrawal and the ATM started malfunctioning and shut down without dispensing my cash but it was deducted from my account and this was all in front of the sales associate ( bless her heart) so she rectified the situation and I was grateful for that. I give a 5 star to the workers but a 2 star for the equipment they are forcing us to use(ATM) . read more

I love their selection first thing. They have a good variety of AIO's which I find myself using more and more. They are competitively priced and well decorated. Two small issues. I got help from a newbie ( gotta start somewhere) with limited knowledge who wasn't being mentored. That's uncomfortable for both of us. I wasn't a fan of the set up. They had it corded off in lanes like a bank. It felt really weird. i'd go back for something special definitely, but not my home store. read more

I need a call from a manager to make this right. Just got off my 10 hour shift at Amazon. Put an order in online. Received my order confirmation at 8:22pm. In the confirmation it says 15minutes it'll be ready. I get here at 8:40pm, which is the time I always get here after work for my orders.....bald security dude saying they're closed and I can't come in. Customers are still inside buying. My order is ready. But nobody can check anyone in. I received confirmation smh. The other stores close in 10 minutes and now I can't order from anywhere. I have been told this before from security but when I tell them my order is ready for online and show them they allow me in. Asked security to get the manager. He said no. This is insane. If you're thinking of coming here don't. You wasted my time and energy after delivering 343 packages in the heat. Worst experience ever. read more

It was a very combative experience. I just wanted to buy some weed man not sit there and argue about the weirdest stuff that had no relevance. Will not be returning or recommending to anybody! read more
