I went in today for a few things and was so happy...HAPPY!!! I was happy to see people bagging groceries for customers! I was equally happy to go to the deli and meet the beautiful and exotic, NOVA.POSES! They/She and I share a love of Halloween! She's going to comic con for Halloween this year, but otherwise she does make up and has done it professionally for many years! This is a case in point of someone who may very well become a good friend in my community! I was so happy to meet her. She's so personable and so kind. She did everything that I asked her to. (which was slice me a bunch of meat so thin, you could see through it.!) and we had a wonderful chat! She's just a wonderful young woman and I'm just so happy to have met her and we became Instagram friends. So I really hope to get to stay in touch with her. She's got quite a number of professional photos on her Instagram page which I will link here if I can figure out how to do it and I'm hoping that she does a YouTube channel with some tutorials as well! Just a wonderful young person‍ It makes such a huge difference, the little things! The moment or two of chatting between a customer and a customer service worker! This chat could lead to a future friendship!! We definitely need more of this in our society. I'm so happy to see this.!!! Overall, my trip to save Mart at this time was totally delightful! I did miss out on using my coupons which were a dollar off for the lunchmeat, but I don't care. I was so enthralled and happy to see everybody in the store was a little kinder than normal a lot happier than normal and just a very nice experience... I think Sacramento has turned a corner to be honest with you. At least it looks that way to me.‍ read more

I have shopped here for decades since it was previously an Albertsons. Savemart staff are friendly and helpful. The. food prices are reasonable in comparison to similar stores. I really like the variety of the deli and the seafood counter. The sushi counter is a nice extra. The hot food selection is excellent. read more

Came here as our last ditch effort on a Sunday to have a crab night and yes yes yes they delivered!!!! We called before we came but there was no answer which would have been a bummer after we drove all the way here. Alas the crab my man and I searched for for 2 hours was available. Wooo whooo!!!!! This place was well stocked and organized. The negative star was 1. Nobody answered the phone 2. We went to self check out and there was nobody there and our items weren't scanning. There were multiple workers checking their items out on registers and one even assisted another lady on our way out. That definitely was a bummer to see and not get any assistance from the numerous workers we notice that were actually on duty. Definitely need to have someone at self checkout if you don't have the staff to support more registers being open read more

Located in East Sacramento, this SaveMart on Folsom Blvd is one of the worst grocery stores in the area. The store relies in large part on pricing gimmicks to attract customers. Its "digital" and "member" prices come at a cost though, as SaveMart sells your information in exchange for a few pennies saved on merchandise. Staff does a poor job of keeping shelves stocked, signage up to date and the store clean. The employees who work the self check out are particularly shiftless, often chatting among themselves or simply missing in action. This store also tolerates shoplifting and vagrants who try to mooch off customers. With Corti Brothers and Trader Joe's nearby - both far better stores - Savemart should up its game and work harder to be a better place to shop. read more

I used to shop at Savemart when I lived closer and enjoy the variety of deals they offer. Now that I'm in Instacart, I've started to place orders here as well as my other spots. They offer good quality products, and from my visits the store had a typical ambiance of a fair priced grocery store. Good service and food. read more

The food is always fresh. There is a wide variety. They recently changed the layout to make each one similar but I've already learned it, not hard. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The ambiance is easy going and casual. read more

I just happen to be in this area going into the Wells Fargo in the same shopping center as this Save Mart is located. I was going to get something for my friend to BBQ me for dinner and since I was here anyways, I'll just go in here and have a look around. I go by the meat department and WOW, what is this? They have Snake River Farms American Waygu Beef here! This is way super high end beef, especially for Save mart to be carrying! I'd think you might find this beef at Whole Foods in upscale Roseville or something, but not here at Save Mart! I see the price tag first, $36/lb. for the rib eye steaks ..... whoa that's a lot I'm thinkin. I call my BBQ friend up and he says that's actually a great price! He says get it! OK, I look in there and see a big thick cut rib eye with lots of marbling. Gimme that one! It's about 1.4 lbs. and costs almost $50 bucks ... for one steak! He said he'll help pay, well, OK then, this is something super high end for me! He seasons and cooks the steak up on a gas grill, reverse sear he says. It does look impressive unwrapped. Cooked up perfect medium edge to edge, no brown parts. The taste, OMFG! I could tell cutting it, the knife went thru so easy and the meat was soft and wiggly as I moved the knife, so tender. That first bite, holy moly steakie wakie!, this was the best beef steak I ever had in my LIFE! Kinda like sex, but even better! My friend agreed, and knew Snake River Beef was some of the best American Waygu, and for the price, a steal! That was such an incredible beef steak, the price was high, but OK, so worth it. Just once give these steaks a try, you;ll agree, just have someone that know how to cook, cook them! read more

This store is a rip off. Everything is 2-5 dollars cheaper at Rancho San Miguel Market, it's right down the street and it's where we shop now. Everyone here has a lazy, laidback, could care less attitude. The deli people are too lazy to slice meat fresh and will even argue when you ask. The management is rude and has a "customer is whiny and always wrong" disposition towards problems. Some of the managers don't even dress like they're managers, one of them doesn't even brush his hair and looks like the human equivalent of a muppet and constantly spits when talking. Stuff in here is stocked in ridiculous places, for example: stuffing for chicken is stocked with office supplies. I avoid this place like the plague. Savemart customer service uses AI for responses too, they had the response on this review within five seconds after it was posted. read more

I'm so over this store. The meat department is clueless and the quality of the meat is so low. Always tough, poor butchering, and not worth the high prices. It's worth paying a bit more and going to Corti if you're buying red meat. read more

The produce section here is seriously lacking! I came yesterday and all of the tomatoes had brown splotches all over them. I needed lemons too and all they had were these mini lemons the size of key limes. There were also moldy tomatoes at another display in the store. It is also inconvenient when using self check out here, if you have any issues or need your bags to be confirmed expect to be waiting around for a few minutes, if there is even a worker around to help you. read more

Save Mart - Grocery Near Me - sacramento, California

This grocery store has become part of my normal routine in Sacramento. It's clean, easy to shop in, and the selection is good for everyday groceries. The staff is polite and the checkout process is usually quick. read more

No more RIP. Today was the last day for me shopping here, it's been on a steady decline for a good while now. They used to be one of the best, now because lack of inventory or simply stopped selling I have to keep going to Raleys. Savemart was convenient because I go to CortiBrothers next door. Guys if you no longer sell frozen turkeys you aren't even a grocery store anymore... feel especially bad for the employees read more

Alert: Arrogant and bias security guard. I went to buy Orchids, Wheat grass and items to make ambrosia last night. As soon as we walked in the store the security guard began following us. Randomly popping up in the same vicinity we just happened to be shopping in. So we stop in the middle of the canned fruit isle. My mom starts scrolling on her PHONE to review our grocery list ..... on her PHONE. We look up and now he's just standing there watching us at the end of the isle. So my mom with her phone in her hand asks him over and over why he was following us. Then she puts her PHONE in the side pocket of her purse. Its still visible. Its literally sticking up out of her purse. Now he is right up on us. She asks him again. And he finally responds with what did you put in your purse and accuses her of stealing. Side note: Who the heck goes to the store to steal flowers, wheat grass and small cans of crushed pineapples?????? Most of our time in the store was in the front of the store in the floral area. He would be a horrible detective!!! Back to the story: He begins to ask what she put in her purse. Her phone is still showing on the side pocket. Now he's demanding to see what's in her purse or he's gonna call the cops. I point at her phone. We both tell him no and I tell him to call the cops OVER AND OVER AND OVER again. He gets his phone out and acts like he's calling the cops but then he puts it away. So I ask him if he called them and he said no. So I tell him again to call the cops because he's WRONG and he accused us of being thieves. So he yells across the store that we're not allowed to buy anything and we're not allowed to come back to the store. Again, I ask why and tell him to call the cops. I wanted it on record that he was wrong. We told him a little about both of our occupations but he refused to believe it because of his own bias. So my mom walks up to who I believe was the manager and tells him that she will show him what's inside of her purse. The manager looks inside her purse and smiles. Guess what there were no canned fruit or anything other than her keys and wallet in her purse. The security then slithers away. Off to accuse more innocent people. No apology for accusing us of being thieves in front of a bunch of strangers. No apology for yelling across the store that we weren't welcome there. No apology for him stealing my time and energy. To the bored security guard. You were wrong and you knew it. Some of the customers who are going to walk into that store work in real law enforcement. You are to arrogant to do that type of job. Find something else to do besides harassing a 70 year old woman walking around with flowers. Fyi: I still got my Orchids and crushed pineapples. read more

I had a great experience with a younger cashier here. She was extremely friendly and talkative which made shopping here stand out from other grocery stores.

Save Mart has been our "go to" store for several years. Sadly, since change in ownership, I'm seeing many changes, lots of them not positive. They recently closed their West Sacramento distribution center and I'm seeing even more changes. Differences in offered products and higher prices. At the full service meat counter, you can no longer get bulk Italian sausage and the hamburger is unappealing. I used the hamburger this evening in a recipe, and it was very dense and lacking flavor. When asked, the employee told us they'd changed their distributor and couldn't get some of the products they previously carried. In the produce department, I couldn't get sweet onions and finding an unscarred potato was a real challenge. Sometimes I've run into rotting potatoes - strong pass. The grapes are usually very good, but I had trouble this week finding a bag without already going bad grapes. This used to be one of the best produce departments around. Many of the former employees are still on sight, but they seem stressed and aren't as friendly as they once were. Going through ownership and management changes does that to employees. Sadly, we'll be doing more shopping at other area stores. read more

Make sure to check the meat labels. Bought two packs of wings that's priced at $1.99/lb. I had a digital coupon for $1.49/lb. Paid and went to sit in my car to look at my receipt. One of my package of wings was mislabeled as leg quarters at $2.99/lb. Went in and I explained my situation to Liz who took care of me. Thank you, Liz. read more

I sent my son to pick up a couple packs of chicken that were on sale. So he went right after he gets out of class , in the rain to savemart. Only to be turned away as soon as he walks in the store due to some new bs policy about no minors between 3-5. So I called to question the customer service person only to be brushed off. So I told my son to go back and ask if she could walk him to the meat department to make sure he wasn't stealing anything only to be told no, it's a new policy. Since when??!! I shop there at least 2-3 times a month and never heard about that policy. And nowhere on the website does it mention that minors weren't allowed. Had I know that I wouldn't have sent my son . Great job save mart, you just lost this family's business!!! read more

My favorite market. They are staff friendly and have an excellent produce dept. always fresh and great digital coupons.

Literally just a worse version of a Safeway or Raley's. There's a huge markup on everything they sell and the organization of the aisles leaves much to be desired. Don't come here if you value your time and money, there are better grocery stores. read more

This has been my go to neighborhood grocery store since the 70's & of course staff has changed but they have a pretty good group.... Some of the baggers need some training but other than that alls good. My main purchases are the weekly & monthly ad items.. The produce is consistantly fresh. read more

Plenty of parking in the shared lot. Clean interior. It appeared that most of the staff don't wear masks, and I witnessed one inadvertently coughing onto products while stocking the meat section. The self-check out is relatively convenient, no more or less than the next place. I wanted to check out the panino selection, and some of the meat looked dull and discolored. Guess I won't be shopping charcuterie here. I've tried their roll ups/pinwheel sandwiches. They were absurdly dry, which isn't exactly encouraging in regards to trying their other in-house, freshly made items. read more

Neat and clean good customer service nice stuff will be back fresh fruit, and vegetables!

I have ordered from the deli a few times now. A lady there has helped me all three times. I ordered a deli sandwich and she is very kind, polite and makes a bomb of a sandwich. Good bye corti brothers ! read more

Great items and a nice store. Make sure you are part of their members rewards as there is a lot of coupons available on items. You don't have to have the actual coupon... just your membership card or phone number. read more

The store at Camelia Center (56th/Folsom) is horrible. Not only does it feel like a failing business (think Kmart just before they closed) but its employees seem oppressed, and its prices are astronomically high. Corporate greed has destroyed this, once family owned, business. Disgusting. read more

I have shopped in various stores in Sacramento and SAVEMART in East Sacramento off Folsom blvd is SO EXPENSIVE! I have never seen prices like these!!! a half dozen baked cookies in bakery department $6.99 to 9.99 HALF A DOZEN!!! Eggs lowest price 9.99 a dozen!! Cakes 15.99 Crazy!!! Everything is really expensive!! This use to be a staple store of mine not anymore!! I wonder if SAVEMART is price gouging just way overpriced! Not going back anytime soon! There are other stores less than this store. Even the new Safeway off Crocker way is less!! Wow!! read more

This store gives an appearance of organization, and you can find what you need. I am a self proclaimed whiskey connoisseur, so I decided to look in the alcohol section and see if there was any good deals on some good whiskey I have not tried yet. But as a black man at 8:30 in the morning, when you hear the announcement say security, scan all cameras, all isles, it makes you think that it was for me. The announcement didn't happen when I was looking at fruit and vegetables, or when I was looking at meat and fish so to say I won't be going back to this place ever again. read more

Have you ever push a locked grocery cart 100 feet to your car? I have. I'm not a fan. Save Mart has been my primary grocery store for 15 years. It was a factor in buying a house in the neighborhood. I have always counted on Save Mart, and this location in particular, to provide quality groceries with a wide variety of produce and goods at reasonable prices with invariably excellent customer service. During my wife's pregnancy in 2011, I came to the store late, about five minutes before closing, because she needed some medication. The store had been closed early due to low traffic at the late hour. A manager was kind and compassionate enough to reopen the store for my quick meds purchase. I remember noting his continued presence in the store since then, and it was always a positive part of my day seeing him there doing his job with a smile. Now, entry and egress from the store is controlled by one-way gates that prevent customers from leaving the store. Now, to leave, you need to pass through the checkout area, regardless of whether you actually bought something. This was cited as a theft-deterrence measure, resulting in a level of inconvenience I was not expecting and definitely don't appreciate. Then, when bringing my groceries to my car, the cart locked up on me. I was forced to drag the thing about 100 feet to my car, parked in front of nearby Togo's. This was because I was hoping to get lunch after getting my groceries. It was not my plan to spend my lunch break dragging 40 pounds of dead weight through a hot parking lot in front of a bunch of high school kids. I ws so annoyed I didn't even get my sandwich. I just wanted to go home. The staff was friendly enough, until like six of them started yelling at some of those same high school students to not exit through the new security gates. They probably felt like me: "I'm not doing anything wrong! This isn't a big deal! Stop making things difficult for no reason!" I'm starting to wonder whether the Corti Bros. grocery store right next door is a better value. Sure, their prices are premium, but at least I can get my groceries to my car without throwing out my back. To Save Mart management: I know you have a business to run. I understand that you are trying to take steps to minimize loss and improve your bottom line. I hope you also understand that this is the first time I had a negative experience at your store. It is the first time I felt unwelcome there. Please consider the following changes to improve your store: - Expand the range of your shopping carts to encompass the entire parking lot. When things get busy, we can expect the lockdowns to become a much greater issue. - Remove the security gates. They cause more problems than they solve. read more

I live 2 blocks from this store, and have visited roughly 5+ times weekly since I've lived here. I have generated a lot of income for this business, and generally have a good relationship with the employees. Today I went there and purchased an item that was $0.99 aka 99 cents. The total (and I paid in cash mind you) was $1.55. .... I am not petty and I'm not a cheap person, but this isn't correct. I asked the cashier (a short squat boy) where the additional 56 cents came from and he told me tax. I said brother there is no place in the USA that has a 50% tax rate, especially here. He told me to get out, and so I left. But I will be reporting this to the Better Business Bureau, if for any reason than to make you change for you future customers. Also --- The store is grossly cheap and they sell items illegally, such as prepared food with no expiration dates. You just lost a customer who genuinely gave you an average of $100 per week. GFY read more

It's time to downgrade my previous lackluster review of Save Mart. While this is a store I frequent because on convenience, it's not the best example of what a grocery store could be. Chock it up to higher prices and an annoyingly inconsistent selection which frequently discontinues the items I could previously only find here. I came in on a recent trip to find the salsa I came here for gone, the Fairlife creamer I came here for gone and the tuna snacks I came here for gone. When I asked an employee what happened, they simply said "discontinued." Not a supply chain issue due to COVID. They just decided not to carry those items anymore (even though they do carry all other Fairlife products). They also seem to have trouble keeping certain items on their shelves. It's only one in three or four trips when I'm lucky enough to find those pot pies I like in the freezer section. I know, am I really complaining about this? But it's the little things that keep you coming back. Service is good, folks are hardworking. But if they don't have what I need, I end up going to Raley's. read more

Been over three years since I provided my last review of this store. Thought I would update. Bottom line, things are still the same. Totally appreciate this store being in our community and what it brings. Hours are tremendous. Staff is helpful and friendly always. There are times where it certainly gets busy with customers and can be check out lines longer than one would want. But that's a function of number of customers at the time and not the stores effort to process them quickly and efficiently. Plus, it's very easy to pick other times in the day where it's easy to get in and out of the store. Store is clean and the parking is just outstanding. Two big thumbs up here. read more

Now I don't mind paying $0.10 a bag. However I don't when they put one item in that bag. I am sick and tired of getting charged $0.10 a bag when the baggers puts one item in it! Don't even bother! They did this twice to me with eggs! So I started saying I don't need a bag for eggs! Well again, they put one item in a bag when there was room in another for that one item! I know it's only $0.10 but it's still money, and a waste of it and the bag! It also adds up! Yes, I know bring your own then! Covid got me use to not bringing them so I keep forgetting! Bag them yourself then some might say! Well I'm sorry but if minimum wage went up to $15-$20 an hour than I shouldn't have to do their job! Also, there I times I do and someone comes over as if they don't want me to. The cashier was very distracted all over the place instead of ringing me up. The service was awful! There are also never carts at the front of the store. Always have to go searching for one in the parking lot. read more

Save Mart - One item for a $0.10 bag! Thanks baggers! That would have fit in another bag, or I could have done with for this item! - Grocery Near Me - sacramento, California

Limited organic products. I couldn't find organic grapes or organic corn. Limited choices for vegan products.

I have been shopping at the SaveMart in East Sac at least 4 days a week for the past 23 years ever since I moved to the area. I have had nothing but good to say about the store in all of those years. That is until yesterday. I went through the self-checkout line and inadvertently left my wallet behind. I didn't notice until a few hours later after searching my car and my home over and over. When I finally came to the realization that I may have left it there which I bfound out by tracing my debit card spending I immediately drove there. I asked a clerk who went to the office portion of the store and a manager came out . He asked if I could identify my wallet which I did. He did that they had shipped it out. they did this without trying to contact me nor even wait a day to see if the owner, me would come to claim it. This screwed me over in a very big way. Right now I am on my way to Reno NV. for a 3 day work weekend. I do not have any credit cards too pay for gas nor my hotel. I have no I.D. to check into my hotel. I was able to drive to my bank and convince them that it was me to be able to withdraw some cash but I doubt that the hotels will honor my reservation without my credit card. There is a decent chance J will have to sleep in my car tonight. I am beside myself. SaveMart you are so much better than this. read more

Bought meat here and the next day it was turning brown. Don't know how long they keep their meats, but dont buy their $5 specials. Its old meat that's expiring. Their bread went bad on the 3rd day.

We need another grocery store here with quality food selections!!! read more

Free Fish Tacos AND The California State Fair! SITREP Props To Save Mart For It's Philanthropic & Sponsorship Activities these last several weeks, since they have been very busy all over the Sacramento area. THE SETUP Twice within one week I had the opportunities to enjoy spending time with the good folks from Save Mart as they engaged in extra-curricular activities outside of their store: once at the State Capitol, and then again at Cal Expo. FREE FISH TACO GIVEAWAY The first event was a philanthropic event partnered with the Sacramento Farm to Fork - Capitol Festival's "Free Sturgeon-Fish Taco giveaway this past Wednesday, July 6, 2016. Centered at 15th & Capitol Streets - just adjacent to the Capitol Rose Gardens - Save Mart provided the logistical support for the Fish Taco Giveaway. With their staff, and the Azteca Food Truck, free tacos were given away to hundreds of local business and state works coming to check the fun. The tacos were great, and it was fun to hang out at the gardens. CALIFORNIA STATE FAIR Save Mart also has a big "footprint" at the California State Fair: from sponsoring culinary competitions, to providing great beverage stands providing wine and beer, Save Mart has really *upped* their profile in the Sacramento landscape with their presence and financial support. THE LOWDOWN Again, props to Save Mart for their considerable philanthropy & sponsorship. read more
