Jojuan and Leanne especially are always going the extra mile to make sure I found everything I needed. After a long day of work and having to get errands done.

It's also in the marketplace where you can find baked goods, meats, cheeses, and wine-- as well as to-go dining options like sushi, Mediterranean food, and salads/ sandwiches. Everyone is kind and helpful. There are plenty of parking options in the parking lot. It's organized and clean.

I got a full bag of groceries for under $50: - half a papaya - amazing color, flavor so-so - Italian sparkling water, sale $3.29 - Lesser Evil popcorn (2), sale $2.99 - organic peaches (2) - organic carrots - Bariani olive oil - yay they carry this! Will explore more in the future - they source a lot of their produce from small producers like Tomatero but the berries are Driscoll and Giant. Service was professional and straightforward - they all looked like they enjoyed working in the environment. A perfect mash up of a gourmet, natural and conventional store.

Wow, time for an update…read more Quality/Quantity - I buy all my beef from Nob Hill (Raley's) because they just seem to have the best quality beef. From both the Alameda and South Reno locations. Just got some tri tip yesterday. :) Atmosphere - Nice local Nob Hill. Clean and organized. They even have Peets in here. Deli, Bakery, Sizzling Wok, Taco, Meat/Seafood, Floral, Cafe, etc. Plenty of mall parking. They also have a gas station and a car wash at this location. Open 7 days a week from 6am to 10pm. Service - Good, the team is almost always happy and friendly. But no employees today, even the self service line was 20 deep; see pictures. Price - Above average, but worth it for what I buy. Owner Comment - Congrats to Raley's success since 1935 with your 119+ locations, and more importantly, still keeping the company within the family. Wow, 10 less stores since my first review... The parent company with all their brands has 237 locations.

We shop there occasionally (three-four times a year). Can't say much about owner(s) or employees as I never interacted much other than "in out, bing bang" and that's it. I didn't notice or experience any rude or "strange" behavior, neither from customers nor employees, otherwise it would've been one star just like all those other reviews (I rarely give five stars to businesses). Also I noticed during my brief shopping visits that other patrons at that moment were from different cultures, speaking different languages, and from different ethnic backgrounds. Truly a diverse and multicultural environment. Finally to Abigail C.: Maybe you should take your rowdy, sugar hopped-up kids to the park to play or spend more time teaching them good manners. Don't be shifting your shortcomings as a parent to others around you. *I am not related to this business owner(s) and am not an everyday/"regular" visitor but reviewers with low self-esteem and an inferiority complex should consider some kind of therapy or even learning a thing or two about different cultures, or perhaps learning a different language before labeling people as racist, bigots, homophobes or any kind of "phobes".

They were not being crazy with them at all. A woman scolded them and said to put them back, which they did immediately. Then a man came over and told us we were very rude and to get out of their store. I have absolutely no idea what we did. I genuinely asked him what we did wrong and he angrily waved us out of the store. We are a multicultural family, so not sure if race played into things. It was a very unnerving experience!

Currently my favorite spot to shop outside of actually going to a farmer's market…read more Reasonable prices - similar to farmer's market and less than the Marketplace. They also seem to have more turnover than the Marketplace, so it's fresher. Their organic Granny Smiths are some of the best I have had - crisp, slightly sour and super juicy. They also carry a variety of microgreens. Interesting small producers in the pantry section. The service is always friendly and efficient. Request: carry maitakes!

It's Trader Joe's what's not to like. Do they have everything that Safeway has next door? Well no,…read morebut what they do have is typically better than next door at a lower price. Checkout is usually pretty quick. Plus's for me are organic fruit and vegies, salmon, pappidoms, prosecco, brut, cheese, yougurt, sour cream, cottage cheese and tinned fish. The kids call it tinned fish now days. Try ordering "tinned fish" at a wine bar in SF and see your wallet shrink. Not so at TJ's, affordably priced like back in the day. Great selection for a light dinner or snack with the aforementioned cheese. Free snacks are always great. Go back for 2nds and 3rds. Also, single bottles/cans of beer so you can mix and match your on 6 pack with provided carrying case. If you drink to much of this stuff it's the only 6 pack you'll have, BTW. They recently put in a tall freezer isle to handle more product. They are still wirking oit the bugs since usually the glass is so fogged up you can't see anything and when you open the door there are 3-4 inch icicles hanging off the shelves and frozen items. So all in all pretty good but this is a smaller TJ's so less stuff I think.

Picking something up at this Safeway today and noticed they have an interesting new hot deli item:…read morePork Meat Pies for $2.49 each. Today's special was 2 for $4 for Safeway members. Tried this out and it was surprisingly not bad for a quick, small snack. Of course the filling is mostly potatoes with some carrot/peas and a minimal amount of shredded pork. The store itself is organized and clean like most other Safeway stores. They also have an Olyns (app-connected) can/bottle recycling machine right outside. This is 1 of 2 Olyns recycling locations in Alameda. The other one is at the Lucky grocery store.

But it is not just used by those using Safeway. There's a bunch of restaurants and other businesses in the area. But I personally have never encountered a moment where there is absolutely no parking. I guess I have been lucky. Inside is very clean. I haven't been to the restrooms so I have no comment on that. There seems to be a good amount of staff. If I have ever been in need of help they've always been there for me. The layout is easy. The signs are in good shape. Just about the same as other Safeways which is nice and familiar. They have a good amount of veggies and fruits that are both organic and not. Well stocked in other areas too. Oh did I mention that they have their gas station too? Like what's not to love! Solid for me. No complaints! 5/(
