It's not exactly cheap but was SO satisfying with that FRESH egg. It hasn't looked right lately and I didn't get one. Finally I straight asked the clerk if they were using processed liquid eggs now and she said yes. You have got to be kidding me? The whole attraction was the REAL EGG. Tastes like ass when you use liquid commercially processed eggs. It is NOT the same. That's why McDs sells so many Egg McMuffins cuz it has a real eggs. Marlenes is really beginning to suck on a lot of fronts. I did get a grab-and-go of garlic salmon and beef meatloaf which were good. I come for the house made food. If I want crap in a can I can get it at Whole Foods and at least they still have real eggs.

I was excited about the deli, but 90% of it was cold items that needed to be heated up. They looked good, but didn't make for a good car snack. The only real grab and go thing is the sandwiches, which took about 20 min to make. I also felt like the reviews overhyped the gluten free baked goods. I only saw gluten free chocolate cupcakes, but had hoped for more. A good, clean stop for anyone who needs some quality food without the stress of a full grocery store, but didn't meet my needs as well as I had hoped. If I needed a fabulous dish to bring home and heat up, this would have been perfect.

I've been a loyal Whole Foods customer for the past seven years, ever since we lived on the East…read moreCoast, and I've always enjoyed shopping there. However, I've noticed that this particular location has been consistently lacking in customer service--especially in the bakery department. This year alone, I've visited the bakery four or five times, and each time the experience has been disappointing. No one acknowledges customers, there's little to no eye contact, and the staff often appear disengaged or busy with tasks in the back of the section. When I do finally get someone's attention, the interaction feels rushed or noticeably unwelcoming. On one occasion, after waiting about 15minutes for my cake to be packaged, the staff member simply set it aside without letting me know it was ready. Situations like this have made it the worst bakery customer service I've experienced at any Whole Foods. I understand they have other responsibilities to manage, but a consistent lack of basic courtesy is concerning. On the other hand, I want to highlight the meat and fish department--they are always friendly, attentive, and hardworking, and it truly makes a difference.

I was looking around for approximately 2 minutes, and a different person (I believe a manager) inquired if I needed help in a condescending manner, almost like she was annoyed I was in the store (for no apparent reason). I told her I was looking for a specific product and she told me they didn't have the exact product I was looking for, but they had a product that had a product that was combined with my specific item. She was wrong! After looking through their products I found what I was looking for, and made her aware I found the product. She was courteous to other customers in the store, I have no idea why I received a less than welcoming greeting. The product I purchased I found somewhere else approximately 40% cheaper. I most likely will not enter this store again, not mainly do to the high prices, but because of the unprofessional manner I was treated.

I love the meal kits to make different Filipino soups for those lazy days you don't want to cook. The produce here always look so fresh. Their meat section offers all sorts of cuts that you would need for recipes or parties. I need to still buy fish from them so I can have them fried as they offer that as a service. The staff here are always so friendly and professional. They also have a birthday offer for those who sign up for their rewards program which is great to have if you shop here every so often. The store is always clean and organized any time we come by. I do also love how brightly lit and decorated the store is. The food court here is great and we have only tried stuff from the bakery and PhilHouse but want to try the other offerings as well!

My husband and I were looking forward to this visit since its inception. We were finally excited…read moreto make it. Our first impression upon walking in was promising. This market is smaller than its competitor in Tacoma, but we found it well-stocked and organized, as evidenced by its bright, airy, and friendly staffed atmosphere. Our biggest dissatisfaction was with their ready-made meals--unbeknownst to us until we reached the checkout area, we learned that à la carte items are priced by weight. Normally, in other Filipino markets that offer ready-made entrees, a la carte items are priced by container size (S, M, L) rather than by weight. In essence, they were expensive meals to swallow (no pun intended). Secondly, most of what we purchased lacked flavor and content. For example, the pork sinigang was not sour enough, and the pork belly lacked substance because most were very fatty rather than meaty. The large container also had more liquid/soup than meat and veggies. Moreover, the chicken and pork barbecue were subpar, again lacking taste--exactly the opposite of how they looked while cooking on the grill. The pork sisig was probably our 'good' buy at best, although at a whopping $32.00+ for a large a la carte. We also purchased empanadas, puto bong bong, and taho at the bakery. Price and taste-wise, they were okay, but nothing to write home about. Across the board, my next trip would be to try out Max Chicken and peruse other specialty items. Otherwise, I would probably return to the grocery section to buy ingredients, cook, and enjoy a more flavorful meal at home.
