    I live right around the corner and have tried to give this store so many chances, but it's gotten to the point where it's just hostile. The staff here treat people of color and queer customers differently -- plain and simple. If you're either and don't read the rest of this review -- to sum it up, give your business elsewhere. Most of the employees are rude, short, or act like customers are inconveniencing them. There are a couple decent people who actually seem to care -- Hannah is the only name I remember right now. She's always friendly, smiling, and professional, and among the handful of staff who actually make the store tolerable at times. She's the one bright spot in this entire store and a role model for how the rest of the staff (especially Linda) should behave. Linda has been the source of multiple problems, but what happened today was beyond unacceptable. My boyfriend and I went in to grab a bottle of wine -- both showed our IDs (as we've done countless times before, even with Linda), and we paid with our joint card. After the transaction went through and the receipt printed, Linda suddenly tried to snatch the wine away and started yelling at us in front of other customers because he had tapped to pay instead of me. The card is joint, both our names are on it, and we both showed valid IDs -- there was absolutely no issue except the one she decided to make up on the spot. She made a total scene, trying to stop us from leaving like we'd done something wrong. It was humiliating, and everyone around was staring. I've never experienced anything so unnecessary and blatantly discriminatory in a grocery store. If Linda wants to take her job so seriously, maybe she should move to produce and deal with the moldy fruit and rotten vegetables that sit on the shelves here instead of harassing paying customers. It's gross. I've seen moldy strawberries, carrots, and brown lettuce more than once, and judging by other reviews, I'm not the only one. This store is a joke -- rude employees, disgusting produce, and management that clearly doesn't care about basic professionalism. Safeway corporate should be embarrassed to have their name on this location. If you want a normal shopping experience where you're treated like a human being, go to Aldi down the street instead. The staff there are friendly, the food is fresh, and they don't make a public spectacle out of customers who've done nothing wrong.

    Cheese selection 1
    Paul D.

    The cheese section delivered for us. They had these little miniature cheese charcuterie kits. The employee that helped us was very friendly. So the surrounding area isn't so great but the chesse area looks classy enough. Safeway isn't usually known for this cheese selection but I was glad I found it when I did. Would visit again.

    Taylor was my very unhappy cashier.

    For the amount of money we spend to purchase food in your store, could you please HIRE friendly cashiers. This morning Taylor was my cashier, not sure if he was feeling sick, grieving a loss of some sort or is just an unhappy camper. He should not be customer facing if he cannot muster up a smile, a simple greeting or eye contact at the very minimum. I tried to call customer service to have someone check on Taylor but after 10 rings, no one picked up. Hopefully you see this review and can find out what is going on with Taylor. I won't shop there again so I hope Taylor gets the customer service training he needs. Have a wonderful day!

    Seasoned meat

    Came here for tri-tip that was on sale. Meat department was extremely helpful. Although prices tend to be a bit higher here than other local stores if you catch the sales it's worth the trip. All locations we've been to are clean, well organized and everyone is extremely knowledgeable and friendly!

While this location is not one of my regular Safeway stops, I have passed it on the way to work-related functions at a nearby hotel. I went there yesterday when picking up out-of-town guests from the airport for a work meeting. We stopped by to pick up some water or other beverages, along with snacks, for three days of work meetings. I haven't needed to use the customer service team yet, though there are plenty of staff members available should I need anything. There is also plenty of parking nearby to make it easy to park, head inside to pick up items, and then take off by using a self-checkout counter or an aisle with a staff member working as a cashier. I recall visiting Safeway, and Albertsons had their annual Monopoly game way back when, and then the Flavor Adventure through the app a few years ago, too. While I haven't used the curbside pickup at this location, I know it is offered here. I do have a membership for FreshPass (which I got this past year at the 50% off promotion). There are great sales from the weekly doorbuster sales to daily promotions to Friday or weekend promotions to general sales prices. For approximately $99 per year (or the occasional $49 promotional price), you can sign up for FreshPass, which includes unlimited free delivery on orders over $30, $5 monthly credit for annual subscribers, earn 2X points on our exclusive brands, save 5% on O Organics, Open Nature, or Signature Pet Care, points don't expire, a VIP phone line, and monthly exclusive Starbucks perks. I really appreciate the $5 monthly credit and the Starbucks perks (to buy a grande-sized drink for only $2 every month). Between those two alone, you more than make back what you spend on the program. Even if you don't join the program, you can earn points for every purchase to redeem for free items, store discounts, or gas discounts, plus extra points during your birthday month. While there are certainly things that this store can do better in the future to meet customers' needs, they have already done so much to get there. For instance, when there are great promotions for a weekly doorbuster, they often still have the items in stock while other nearby stores no longer do (like $0.97 per pound chicken breast). I plan to continue visiting this store in the future when driving this direction!

    Disappointed! Two weeks ago I stopped at this Safeway to pick up some wings from the wing bar…read more Safeway has had a wing bar for a long time and never has disappointed. This day the wing bar was empty and not yet ready for the lunch crowd. I asked the nice young man behind the counter he said he and the deli manager were new and apologized for not having ready. In the past the wing bar was always ready at 11:00 daily. So, I went back today to once again get some wings from the wing bar and again the wing bar was empty and not ready. I asked the same young man behind the counter and once again he said the manger was new and apologized. Not his fault because apparently he was alone this time, at least I didn't see anyone else behind the counter just him.

    After my first visit to this Taiwanese grocery store a couple years ago I had never been back as I…read morewas disappointed. That changed radically recently as I decided to give it another chance as I was in the area and ended up scoring some unexpected and amazing deals. I don't go to HMart in Mesa much anymore as this store has just about everything I need and is so much closer. If you want live seafood, you'll find plenty here. I really like the abundance of fresh vegetables and they're really cheap. I always pick up a kombucha squash to roast for my fur baby too. Tofu prices are the cheapest I've seen so I stock up as I love making mapo tofu and spicy tofu soup. They also have a food court and a bakery inside the store so it's very convenient to grab to go or even eat there as they have a small seating area. I do wish they had more cashiers as the lines are always so long no matter what time or day it is.

They have some…read moreitems here that you won't find at other grocery stores like the many different varieties of hot pot fish/ meat balls. There are certain ice cream bars that I have only been able to find here too like the matcha ice cream bars that use good quality matcha. Some items here can be a bit more expensive so I usually go to my other usual spot instead for majority of things on my list. Was just here on Mother's day and picked up this new ube coconut spread which was $10 for 5.8oz. I would say that is expensive. They did let everyone take a carnation flower home on this day. That was nice. This store is always busy on the weekend. The parking is so bad. It can be difficult to get a parking spot on the busy weekends and people take forever to get in their car and leave the parking spot. Lately, I've been noticing how slow the cashiers are and the lines to pay can get pretty long. They really take their time picking items up, scanning and putting items into the bag. There is no sense of urgency at all. It would help to get some faster cashiers or retrain to improve speed, or even add a self check out area.
