They offer so many items you simply won't find at a typical grocery store, which makes every visit feel like a discovery. I stopped in late one night right as the seafood bar was closing, and the staff was unbelievably accommodating. They went to the back to get me exactly what I needed--fresh, high-quality seafood--without a single complaint. That level of service was spectacular and honestly above and beyond what I expected. I absolutely enjoy shopping here, and I will 100% keep coming back.

Found some yummy stuff, but it is really busy here though. But friendly service. Have a beautiful day, be kind to everyone :) Aloha

If you know you know. But here I am giving it 5 stars because they deserve it and I'd feel wrong not showing love to a spot that's been so consistent for me. Everything here is solid but the real pro tip is the fruit. I'm talking big, fresh, beautiful fruit that puts every other grocery store and market to shame. The quality is unmatched. Every single time I go the fruit looks like it was hand picked that morning. No bruised up sad looking produce, no half rotten stuff hiding at the bottom of the pile. Just perfect fruit, every visit. I already regret posting this. Please don't come here. But if you do, grab the fruit and thank me later.

It is a bit surreal being in a grocery store where the mean/median/mode price of something is 10x what it'd be at a normal shop. There's a parking garage right next to this location, but there was also a good amount of street parking nearby. Staff was very friendly! I got an 8 oz. jar of the Summit Trail Mix, which I really liked! It's not too salty and the dried fruits complimented the almonds so well. Enjoyed it so much that I kinda wish I opted for the bigger jar. Also, on top of the already steep price, there's a $3 bottle deposit. Since it was my first time here, the cashier let me know that you can get your deposit back if you bring the bottles/jars back to the store. After making my trail mix purchase, I got the strawberry glaze smoothie. My smoothie was ready pretty quickly. I'm not a big strawberry-flavor lover, but I really enjoyed this smoothie. It was the perfect refreshing drink for hot weather and walking around. I also felt very fitting and pretentious taking sips of my smoothie while strolling around Melrose. I definitely have to go back next time I'm in LA.. to get my bottle deposit back of course..

They have lots of different wrap meals I haven't seen at other locations. They definitely have a whole lot at this store, likely as it's in the heart of Hollywood.

The smell of the fresh roses during my visit was just captivating! Will be coming back the next time in town!

Not happy! I'm sick…read moreand tired of buying poor quality control produce. Today it's finding out the (orange dyed) Salmon I purchased two days ago is leaking in my fridge and has stunk up my apartment. It's happened before with the Salmon. I'm sick and tired of having my bakery items develop mold far before the Sell-by date. Such a waste of food! Same goes for the pre-packaged fruits and nuts. Fruits develop mold and the nuts are often dry and hard. I'm also pretty tired of the so-called niche products that taste like shyt. I bought Hot Honey Fudge the other day - I love fudge - the name sounded good; but, my mistake, I should have actually read the description because 'Hot' really means chili hot... and disgusting. The candies are many but 'many' are yuck: dark chocolate that's basically just bitter bits and not a confectionery. Putting chili in too many products is also awful. Having bizarre foodstuffs like Gone Bananas and other ice cream yuck - and keeping it in an open freezer is a disaster. The pre-packed salads have gotten smaller and more expensive. Some eggs can be hatched. The avocados are often just as miserably bruised as the cheaper versions in the big stores. And the overall feeling I get is that the foods Trader's attempts to pioneer with are rather tasteless, poor texture and otherwise - odd, that anyone would like them. But, then again, we all know the 'types' of people who shop Traders - and some of these 'types' seem less-than concerned about quality... at least at this store in Hollywood...they're more attracted to 'being seen' than making sense with their spending habits. And what's with all the recalls and union-busting, etc. I'd like to think Trader's was a better place before it went rogue commercial. Anyway, the customer service at the check-out is good. The CS are helpful with any searching and sourcing. BUT! And this is a big BUT - I don't feel the 'service' of 'just bring it back' or 'we'll give you a refund' is the answer to this mess. It's inconvenient, unfair and not a solution to providing quality. Forcing your staff to behave 'over-the-top' does not satisfy the requirement that your produce needs to be top-notch. 3-Stars off for Couldn't been better; but, it ought to be 'Yuck' till you get your act together. I may attach images later.

This morning, I went to the market early and was looking for a specific cut of meat. I noticed a…read moreshort, older Korean man with gray hair standing by the meat section, so I asked him about the pork cut I wanted. I felt a wave of fear as if he might hit me. He told me they don't sell that cut here and suggested another one instead. I was considering buying the cut he mentioned, so I asked if the two cuts tasted very different. Then he trembled his lips and angrily said, "I told you, we don't have that here! Don't talk about things we don't sell!" His eyes were filled with anger. I can't tell if he has anger management issues or feels inadequate, but if he's going to treat customers like that, he should just stay inside and cut meat! His glaring eyes completely ruined my morning.I really hope they provide better training for their staff. Just because he's older, does he think he can treat customers poorly? Is this the only Korean Market in LA?

I come for the Coinstar. Everything else is negotiable…read more Let's get this out of the way: the only non-replaceable reason I come to Pavilions is because they have a working Coinstar machine. Not "out of order." Not "temporarily unavailable." Not "we're waiting on a tech." It works. Reliably. Consistently. Like a unicorn in retail. That alone earns loyalty. Now... the rest of the store. For a grocery store in California--a state that treats meat like religion--the meat section is underwhelming. Not bad. Just... uninspired. When you live in a place where butcher counters should sing opera, this one hums quietly and avoids eye contact. Compared to Publix (the gold standard of grocery comfort) or Trader Joe's (chaotic-good culinary wizardry), the selection here feels thin. You can get what you need, but you won't discover anything that changes your life or your dinner plans. Customer service? Fine--but slower than other locations. No hostility. No disasters. Just that gentle, Hollywood pace where everyone seems slightly distracted, like they're all waiting for a callback that may never come. And yet... I keep coming back. Because Coinstar. Because convenience. Because sometimes you just need to dump a jar of shame-quarters and leave with dignity. This Pavilions isn't exceptional--but it's functional, familiar, and does the one thing I absolutely need it to do without drama. In modern retail, that counts for a lot.

The amount that I love Grocery Outlet, y'all! LOL!…read more I detest shopping but there's something about grocery shopping and getting deals, I very much enjoy taking an edible and spending way more than I should at Grocery Outlet. This particular location in Downtown is a sneaky win! My own bias made me avoid this location thinking it would have hard parking & be a bit dingy but it's honestly SO clean and well organized here. Plus, tons of parking. The Downtown Grocery Outlet may be my new favorite location! I think it's really fun trying all the cool promo items they have here but also finding things I regularly buy (a specific brand of green tea, a specific Korean fancy brand of coffee, really expensive cat foods) at 75% off sometimes - I'm in heaven! You can have fine things at a good price! Grocery Outlet has you covered. Most Grocery Outlets are independently owned so another thing about shopping here, you can feel like you are supporting a good local family. Great deals, great items, I'll obvi be back!

I've been coming to Lazy Acres for over a year, ever since moving into the neighborhood, and I'm…read morereally glad this store replaced the old Rite Aid. It feels like a huge upgrade. Overall, this is easily one of my go-to grocery stores in LA, and I literally stop by almost every day. The store is always organized, clean, and easy to shop. Not everything is organic, but they carry a lot of great products, and the overall selection is strong. I usually get my daily produce here, and I also buy wine here pretty often. The water refill area is always kept clean, which I appreciate, and their fresh juice section is one of my favorite parts of the store. The larger juices come in plastic, but the price on the orange juice is hard to beat, so I keep going back for it. I also like their prepared food section. During one stretch I was buying it pretty often and was always happy with the options, especially since a lot of the food avoids seed oils and uses grass-fed beef. They even have a live kitchen where you can sign up for classes and participate in food prep, which is a really cool touch and makes the store feel more thoughtful and community-oriented. The staff is another big plus. I've interacted with a lot of the cashiers and employees here, and they've all been sweet, personable, and genuinely pleasant to talk to. You can tell the people working here care and that the store is trying to offer a better experience. My only real issue is the meat and fish section. I've tried a lot from it over time--chicken breast, wings, ground wagyu, marinated items, branzino--and too often I've felt like I wasn't getting the freshest product. That's the one department that has consistently let me down. It's disappointing because the rest of the store is so strong. I also don't really understand why the wagyu ground beef costs almost double when it's formed into patties, but that's more confusing than a dealbreaker. At the end of the day, I still think Lazy Acres is one of the best grocery stores in LA, especially for convenience, cleanliness, product mix, and staff. But I've pretty much told myself to stop buying meat here, because for the same price I can get much better quality from a proper butcher. Since it's only a 3-minute walk from me, I'll absolutely keep coming back, just with a little more selectiveness about what I buy.

This is a great place to shop when you want high-end produce, meat, or fish. Would I do my weekly grocery shopping here? Probably not. But as a quality-focused stop, I really liked this store.

Parking is free (thank goodness) and is located in a small multi-level mini mall. I mainly come here for spices, sauces and seasoning as they are better priced than bigger chain markets. Also worth the grab are their marinated meats, ready to be cooked. The beef bulgogi was so good when grilled over charcoal. They also have all the sides in the refridgerated section such as seaweed salads, kimchi and marinated squid. My most recent "a ha!" moment is finding the Korean fried chicken in the ready-to-eat deli section. Absolutely delicious and affordable! I no longer want to get takeout wings or Korean fried chicken at restaurants when I can get them here.
