Cake

Super disappointed in the bakery department, I ordered an frozen theme cake and I was so sad to see how it turned out. It was nothing like the picture I picked out that they had the colors were all off and there was cracks all in the cake. I feel if you're gonna have these pictures to choose from they should be really close to what you offer. I understand it can't be identical, but this was not OK and of course I was stuck with it because I needed a cake for my daughter's fifth birthday So sad, and won't be going there ágain

Better quality control needed. Shitake mushrooms with spores and mold. Health hazard.

This review is for their drive up service. DO NOT USE THEIR DRIVE UP!! Every time I use this service at this location it's a nightmare. They make me sit in the car for like twenty mins after I've arrived. I have to call and check on them. This time I ordered for 9 am pickup. I got an email that they're working on my order at 8:17. Then at 915 another email that sorry they're delayed. I called the 800 customer service on the email to check at 935 and they're like we'll send them a message. It should be ready by 10 for sure. I had my baby with me so I drove there and park in a spot and call that number and ask them and they say oh yeah it's ready we're bringing it out. I sit in the car for fifteen mins. No notifications on my phone. Finally she comes out and asks to see my code. I'm like you didn't send anything. She's like check your card and see if you got charged. I tell her did you mark it ready in your computer?! So she says she's gonna go inside and check her computer and I should check my card to see if I got charged. I sit another ten more mins. My kid was restless so I get him out of the car seat, go inside looking for her. I couldn't find her so I ask someone and they try to call her a couple times. I told them I don't care anymore, just charge my card that's in my hand so I can get out of here. Then she says let me check with my manager. She goes to her manager and she says it's fine and they can just give me my order since the app said they charged my card. We go back to my car and I finally get out of there at 10:25!! At 10:34 I get a text, your order is ready! By this time all my frozen stuff have been out of a freezer for thirty mins... And I don't even want one of the things that they substituted, so I have to go back in and return that. The Safeway on El Camino is so much better for drive up. They're always ready quick and the lady that usually brings out my stuff is so cheerful. One time she saw my kids in their car seats and she gave me a bottle of water for free for them... But that one is not on my way from school drop off so sometimes I use this one. If you want to start out your dayity... go to this location.

This was the tag that wasn't in the system on 5/26. It shows that the discount is active 5/22 through 5/28.

I'm starting to have mixed feelings about the discounts here. Today I needed to run in to grab some ingredients for a meal. One of the things that I needed was cheddar cheese. I noticed the attached tag on the shelf, but when I tried to scan the barcode in the Safeway app the discount didn't appear. My other discounts were ok. The thing is, $2 / 8oz is a reasonable price for cheddar cheese, $4.49 / 8oz is really high. I interacted with three employees. The employee in the self checkout: * Did her best to help me to find the offer * Offered to void the transactions for the cheese, allowing me to complete the rest of the checkout and go to customer servcice * Was facing a line of other customers who needed help, and handled the pressure really gracefully The employee at customer service helped me to find my QR code and then went to the shelf. I noticed that he pulled a trash can over and threw away the shelf tag on his way back. He then announced that the shelf tag expired on 5/22 (today is 5/26). The thing is: I took a photo of the tag when I first had trouble (hoping to save everyone some time). It clearly shows 5/22 - 5/28. He gave me the discount on the product, but I didn't appreciate the confusion around the expiration date. A third employee came by to pick up an order. I offered to step aside to let her help other customers. She was really nice about it (I'm doing something else right now...) She also stayed for part of the dispute around the expiration dates. This all seems too complicated to me. Things are busy on the holiday weekend, and the inconsistencies in the discounts are pitting the employees against the customers. Everyone was polite, but it's a lot simpler to go to a store where the price is the price.

Nice 4th of July display. Red White and Blue Vodka? Who knew? I must have it!

I Love this Safeway . It's always neat and clean. Well stocked with the shelves forward faced, and well labeled. The seasonal merchandising and end caps are always works of art. Everything you need for that holiday and things I've never would have thought of. If there were medals given for merchandising excellence, this Safeway would take the gold. The staff is always helpful and friendly. Best Safeway in the region.

With how crazy inflation has gotten for groceries, anything to save helps. There is a lot of good variety of fresh fruits and veggies here. I usually can find good prices for tomatoes, apples, onions, and other basic cooking staples here. That said, you do need to be careful when picking out your food because some items might be getting close to expiration or are going moldy or bad already. So just pick and choose diligently. The shop does get crowded after work and on weekends, so it's best to come during weekdays or earlier mornings if possible. The workers here are always nice. It's well lit inside and they usually have fresh fruits outside the door as well for you to browse before you enter the store. Overall, cool place to shop. I enjoy frequenting here when I can to grab groceries for my family!

This is my go-to Whole Foods, partly because it's super close to where I live, but also because…read morethey have everything I need, and the staff is always helpful and kind to me. When they closed because of the rodent problems, it really messed up my routine, and I didn't enjoy the Sunnyvale location as much. I'm so happy they've reopened! As a vegan, I don't usually eat the hot bar or bakery food, but I do appreciate the packaged vegan options like 365 brand scones and croissants, and of course, the Abe's line. They typically have great deals for Prime members, especially the meat alternatives from Beyond and Jack & Annie's. I do a bulk of my shopping and all my Amazon returns here. Some of my staples are: Siggi's Plant-Based yogurt, Icelandic Provisions Oatmilk Skyr yogurt, 365 Chocolate Almondmilk Pudding, the fresh sourdough loaves, organic fruit, organic almond milk, and Greyston Bakery vegan brownies (birthday cake and cinnamon roll are my faves). This will always be my go-to Whole Foods, unless I move.

I've shopped here aince this location opened. 15 years plus. Regularly. Before the infestation shut…read moredown, and after, by the way no changes after, it's exactly the same. Came here this morning to get 1/2 flank steak, as I have for years. The guy behind the meat counter, with an unhappy face in a monotone, unenthusiastic voice tells me a big story of the butcher and this and that, rambling in incomplete sentences - ultimately, about how he will not cut it for me. He refused to. Interesting, because last week I said I wanted about a pound of flank steak and it wasn't an issue -the guy turned around cut it, slapped it on the scale, wrapped it and handed it to me with a smile. The lack of human emotion with some of the workers at this store is astounding. Why are you paying them? How did they get hired? Genuine question. The cashiers are very similar. Zero personality . One tall older guy with glasses is always inconsiderate and simply unhappy on a regular basis. Was outright rude to me when "he" made a mistake ringing up an item - and he didn't like it when I questioned him. They are just outright rude here. I could list many more examples of how bad this store is and the staff who work here. Not all the staff, there are some very nice professional ones, but it's few and far between. Where is the management? Does it exist at this whole Foods or do they only step in when rats are running around the store?

Their crew always seem incredibly cheerful and upbeat. And I can always ask someone to check for greener bananas in the back storeroom. I know they have to deal with a high volume of customers daily, and I appreciate that the floor is always well stocked with all of my favorite Trader Joe's staples. They do get new items every now and then, but I don't think that they are one that gets them first necessarily, which is fine by me as long as they do get the good items eventually! The size is pretty typical, not too big and not too small. Their wine selection seems a bit smaller than other TJ's I've been to, but they still have beer singles which makes me happy. The inside is decorated like all other TJ's with fun kitschy drawings. And the layout is very logical.

Mega is clearly far and away the best Asian market in the Bay area... having said that, I do have…read moresome complaints but will give it the 5 stars it deserves. Let's start with the good, or I should say best. The sashimi here is the best of any Asian market bar none. You could even say better than some Sushi restaurants (I won't name them). Even some of the newer Asian markets like T&T have disgusting sashimi... to the point you can taste the ice bc they hadn't fully defrosted it. The only nit I have is bruh... stop putting the frickin plastic sauce packets right on top of the fish. Why? Why would you do that? Stop it. Come on. Why in the actual F would you do that? Ok, I know this sounds more like complaints but I do really like Mega Mart to be clear. 2 other issues: #1. Dude... what're you guys doing with the panchan? When did you start adding so much sugar and sugaring the F out of the panchan. This is not how it should be. Old Korean grandmas are literally turning in their graves with this sacrilege. Maybe panchan sales are falling, but you can be damn sure I will never buy this again with the amount of sugar you guys add. Like why? Why 50% sugar... seriously, this panchan candy bar nonsense makes no sense! #2. What happened to organic natto? Like bruh. You only had 1 brand left that was organic. Sure I could go to Nijiya and have a choice of 2, but I'm disappointed you guys stopped carrying the only organic natto you had.

I was excited to see that they now have a "Vegan Vegetable Mandu" offering in the hot food section. I had to grab both options to test them out : Unlimeat Kimchi Mandoo and Unlimeat Vegetable Mandoo. Each package has 8 pieces and a packet of shoyu. After trying both, the kimchi version won me over a bit more. The other option is lighter in flavor, and I'm a fan of bold and spicy food. Adding the shoyu helps, but I could easily eat all the kimchi ones alone. I'm not sure I'd get them often, but I like having an option in the grab and go section for when I'm short on time and hungry. They also added some Pulmone vegan-friendly microwave dumplings to the frozen section, so I got those too. I noticed some plant-based bulgogi kimbap in the frozen section, but I decided to skip them because I'm iffy about the textures of frozen kimbap. I love when grocery stores have vegan-friendly options! I hope this means they'll start adding more vegan-friendly options in the grab and go hot food section. A tofu and veggie rice bowl would be nice!
