a plate of mexican food with rice and beans

Definitely Not like my hometown Safeway. expired stuff on the shelf including steaks that looked like they've been left in the refrigerator shelf for too long. Still managed to find some cut up meat for dinner and made something quick and easy.

I would like to the thank staffs in Safeway at 850 N Lake Blvd, Tahoe City, for keeping the store open on Thanksgiving Day. There was a long list of stores and restaurants closed on that day, including Subway. Besides, it's very nice to have a panic area behind the store. If you want to know what else could be done better, check out this video: https://youtu.be/Y3wN3du5g0k?t=116

I have been coming here for years and in fairness I am assuming Safeway couldn't have seen the last 5-6 months in their advanced planning. What I do know is I have shopped here for 25 years and today I waited 40 minutes in the checkout line. The store hasn't kept up with the demand and the Bay Area folks hiding out during COVID-19 and added social distancing and masks made today terrible. I forgot an item and don't want to go back! I don't blame Safeway fully as half the customers we bumped into were miserable as well. I sure hope we get a vaccine soon and can get life back to normal! Our cashier was amazing and I could tell the staff are weary!

Every time we come here, there are only two check outs open and it takes about 20 minutes just to get through the check out line. This is so ridiculous!!! I thought it was a fluke the first time, but after trip #3, it's the same thing! Also, the manager just stands there watching everyone, open another check out!!! I'd rather drive further to another grocery store, this is nuts. So this Safeway officially lost my business. I'd recommend driving a little further to a different place.

Well stocked store with friendly employees. Could use a new tile floor, but it was clean. Plenty of parking.

This is the worst Safeway I have ever shopped. Stock is okay but staff is very unhelpful verging on RUDE! Go to Raley's!

Go here, and you will not regret it! It is easy to find in the back of the little health food…read moremarket. I ordered the teriyaki noodle bowl which took a little bit to make. The broth was really flavorful and the noodles, veggies, and tofu were great. I was interested in the bread but once I got there, I wasn't too excited about it. However... the sandwiches were delicious! And the bread for the sandwich actually was amazing. We got the leaf eater, and the pesto and hummus on it were really tasty. It made me want to buy the dips themselves. The chocolate chip cookie was thin, but still somehow chewy, a tiny bit crunchy, and buttery. The surprise purchase. I wanted another. There was also a fridge of take home broth, desserts, and dips. Every item we ordered was GREAT! I could have eaten two of each.

Cafe located in New Moon in Tahoe City. It has fresh made and some grab and go items. Stony Ridge…read moreUncommon Kitchen is good for fast eating and snacks. Lots of vegan friendly foods. They can be slow at times. It can take a long time to make something fresh. Maybe get something from the grab and go if you're in a hurry. They have a lot of convenient things like salads and sandwiches. Prices aren't bad. They're typical of many organic markets, which are higher than many things at regular grocery stores, but with good prices on some things. Cafe opens after the rest of the store opens. They close before the rest of the store closes, so if you can't make it at that time you can get something from the grab and go section. It has a very delicious Thai peanut noodle salad that's great to eat while going out and about. There's also healthy things like falafel and hummus. Go here and grab a few to go items. It can take a long time at the counter to get stuff. The cafe is good for gluten free and vegans.

Fantastic little deli to get Starbucks coffee, healthy soups, sandwiches, snacks, drinks, and…read moretoiletries. I stocked up for my usual evening snack attack and hydration needs. The people working here are up from Peru for the winter, and are so hospitable and kind. There is also ample sitting space to work or relax in. This is a reminder to myself to stop putting work before relaxing, both in reviews and in life.

Convenient since it's located between the guests rooms and main lobby at the Resort of Squaw Creek…read more You can have food delivered but there's a $5 delivery fee and 15% service charge. I say save the extra money since you'll most likely be passing by this place multiple times a day. Food is a bit pricey, but is expected since it's affiliated with the resort. The have a little cafe with Starbucks coffee, baked goods, and soups, salads, and sandwiches. They also have a wine section and a small pharmacy/retail section. My only gripe about this place is that there aren't any prices listed or stickered on anything that is not prepared by the deli- all the retail goods and bottled beverages. $3 for an individual sized box of organic milk, yea- no thank you. Again this place is convenient but if you have the time or if you want to save money, head to Safeway a few miles away and stock up on goods... especially snacks and drinks.
