    I've been a loyal customer of Total Wine primarily the Mission Valley location, but my recent visit…read moreto the Carmel Valley store left me extremely uncomfortable and disappointed. On my way to San Marcos, I stopped in to pick up a few cigars. While browsing the Scotch section, specifically looking at a Dalmore 15, an employee approached me and greeted me. I politely responded and made it clear more than once that I did not need assistance. I prefer to shop independently, and if I need help, I will ask. Despite this, the employee continued trying to engage, ignoring my clear and respectful responses. At that point, I was already feeling pressured and just wanted to check out and leave. While waiting in line, the same employee approached me again and redirected me to another register, saying he could help me there. I agreed, expecting a straightforward checkout. Instead, the interaction became uncomfortable and frankly bizarre. He asked if I needed a cigar bag. I responded clearly: "Yes." Rather than proceeding normally, he paused, stared at me, and acted as if he did not understand my response. There was an awkward silence where he simply looked at me in a confused and almost performative way. At that moment, I had to say: "I think my English wasn't that bad saying 'yes' after you asked if I need a bag." His response was dismissive: "Oh no, I asked if you need a cigar bag."! This interaction felt unnecessary, patronizing, and inappropriate. What should have been a simple transaction turned into an uncomfortable experience that made me question whether I was being subtly mocked or tested over something as basic as saying "yes." This happened around 3:33 PM on a Saturday. what should have been a quick stop after a long week turned into a frustrating and unwelcome experience. For clarity, the employee's name was John. I expect better from a company like Total Wine. Customers should not feel pressured while browsing, nor should they be made uncomfortable during a basic checkout interaction. This kind of behavior reflects poorly on the store and needs to be addressed seriously. I hope corporate reviews this and takes appropriate action to ensure customers are treated with respect and professionalism.

I don't see only one demographic here like one of the reviews suggest, I see all types of people. The service is always excellent. The clerks are friendly and helpful. The food choices I make are always tasty. I buy the cheese, the vegetables, the yogurt, cereals, seasonal favorites and all is fresh and yummy. I recommend the Trader Joes in Poway.

    I've been coming to this new Trader Joe's location since they've opened. The employees here are…read moreusually nice and helpful. However, I don't like the "games" TJ usually plays regarding quantities of what's in stock and "seasonal" items. It creates an unhealthy scarcity mindset amongst the customers and people get catty. Mann the people going crazy over the Dubai chocolates, mini totes, and mini cooler was ugly. It usually isn't an issue for me as the stuff I buy aren't the "viral" items. My household likes that the veggies are usually fresh and the meat items are well priced. But this month, this TJ location has really been missing the mark. Almost EVERY egg carton has a cracked egg. The Roma tomatoes were all mushy. Coconut milk and coconut cream have not been in stock since before Christmas and the fulfillment date keeps getting pushed out (first 1/22, then today I was told 2/1). And it is not a seasonal item. This is just today's experience. I've noticed things like this happening all month. I don't know about everyone else, but I don't like going to more than one grocery store to get items I expected my grocery store to have or having to come back the next day. (Nor does anyone really have time for that.) It will only cause people like me to adjust to shopping elsewhere and/or decrease my overall spend at TJ's. Frustrating.
