I'll start off by saying I really can't believe that I am rating a Walmart in general 4 stars …read more.. and then especially this one after having read all the reviews, but I give credit where credit is due and they deserve the 4 star rating. First off the store is NEAT! I'm talking like every department ... like grand opening neat! This is virtually impossible mid afternoon in any high volume retail store but this Walmart got it done! Pricing was displayed and accurate, there were ample shopping carts, security was helpful in providing directions around the store, there were ample employees assisting guests in the deli and hot foods sections. there were multiple checkout lines open and the cashier was friendly. The bathroom upon walking in was clean and the only reason the review isn't 5 stars is because the stalls weren't clean, but hey, I guess you can't be perfect. Overall honestly the best Walmart experience I've ever had.

Two lines for less than 15 items... a bunch of folks in line with way more than 15 items.

That was my first day in New Jersey and I was happy to browse through things at this supermarket. Everything you need is here. The produce is very fresh. We bought some clams, snails, octopus, salmon to make a hot pot, and when we wanted to have a few more snails, they opened the bag and put some more in without weighing it again. The staff was so friendly and nice. They helped me find everything I was looking for. The watercress and vegetables were fresh. I bought some sweet potatoes and casavas which were both so delicious when I steamed them. They displayed everything so neatly here. The only suggestion I have is to please raise the temperature in the supermarket a few degrees. It was freezing cold. Other than that, all good. Thanks to this supermarket, my friend and I had a delicious steaming boat as our first dinner at this Airbnb in Elizabeth city.

If you read this and you work for this branch at the administrative level, I must recommend that…read moreyou either hire security officers who are properly identified or that you train the ones you have hired to do so. What I don't recommend is that you ignore this advice and allow your security to be dressed in shades, black skinny jeans, a black hoody, and a black medical mask while they stalk your customers. I couldn't tell if this was some guy trying to take my phone and run for it, or if he was trying to hack into my shopping cards with an RFID reader (yes, thieves do that), or if he was an ICE officer trying to profile me while being undercover or what. It was so obvious. He passed me like around a dozen times while I'm trying to figure out what to get, mind my business and shop around. After confronting him directly to try and see why he was following me, he decided to get snarky. Couldn't even answer me when I asked him if he was a security officer or what. Had it been someone with less patience, he probably would have gotten punched in the teeth (seriously, some people are crazy like that). He could have been professional and identify himself, but he chose not to be. He also continued to follow me. It really killed my mood, so I stopped shopping and left. I'll spend my money somewhere else.

The decor is wonderful... especially on Holidays and the facilities are clean. They have great sales. Seems like a balance between a futuristic and approachable, community driven experience. I can usually find what I'm looking for! For a light sensitive person, the LED lighting is a Godsend. For those not so sensitive it isn't over powering. The staff is welcoming AND helpful and very present. They seem to manage a very busy, multicultural urban population, attentively, courteously and swiftly.

To begin with, their prices were NEVER cheap, but it has gotten worse over the years. Name brands that they sell happen to be cheaper at neighboring stores in Newark (ShopRite Springfield ave, Superfresh Clinton ave, even sometimes Whole Foods broad st). They also lack variety of options that other stores sell (being that Ironbound is mostly Portuguese and Brazilian population), a little more variety could do no harm. The shelved bakery items (outside of the bakery counter in the back) happen to taste old or like fridge. I'll give them credit for the butcher and the seafood market though. Overall, greed is what's happened to this place.
