I can see why the reviews are so high for this little grocery shop. It's full of fresh food and…read moreparticular products that cater to people with different dietary restrictions. The prices are reasonable, and there are some good sales too. I was able to find vegan Mochi in many different flavors including matcha and mango. I purchased the matcha flavored ones and they really brought me back to my mochi childhood memories. Along with other satisfying products, I purchased their freshly made veggie spring rolls that include layered thinly sliced avocado, shredded carrots, lettuce and cucumber. The sauce that comes with it is sweet-chili flavored, and all the ingredients for everything are simple. The presentation is nice, and the rolls are well-held together. I don't need to worry about anything falling out, so it makes this a good snack/meal for on the go. Finally, the customer service is exceptional. I felt welcome, and the place had an overall friendly atmosphere. After a day full of anxiety, it was nice to have it calm down in this grocery shop lol. Thank you Nature's Best Food employees for making this shop as special and good as it is.

I went in one night to buy a couple things. I even asked the cashier to help me find the items in the store that I was going to buy because I couldn't find them. when we're at the check out counter, he asks me if he can look inside my bag to make I sure I didn't steal anything. I ask him if he is serious. he says yes. I kindly tell him that yes he can check my bag, but that once he does he will lose a customer because I don't support businesses that racially profile customers. he says he's not racist and then proceeds to tell me stories about people stealing. I assure him I'm not a thief and that I don't care about his reasoning. if he has an issue with customers coming into the store with bags (I had 1) he should ask everyone (not only Black customers) to leave their bag at the counter while shopping. I would have left my bag at the counter without a problem if he had asked. but, again, I let him know he has my permission to look inside my bag. but that once he did, he would lose a customer. he did check my bag and got a look at my takeout box from the Korean fried chicken spot. What I was gonna buy at Nature's grocery story that evening I left on the counter and I haven't been back since. during my interaction with the cashier, a white woman walked in and shopped.q I imagine that she had no problems not if every customer is not asked to show their bags or leave their bag at the counter, it's a shame because its a block or so away from my apartment and I love the idea of supporting a mom and pop's business, but I don't support racial profiling. it happened to me, so I know other Black people have gone through it at Nature's and it's unacceptable.

Produce is also excellent with organic and non-organic on virtually every item. Cheese corner is really good with dozens of varieties and sizes. I like their liquor and wine section, and can't imagine very many situations where they couldn't cover my needs. The prepared food is not worth the trip for that alone, and is really pretty uninspiring. They stock everything I need. They have great, consistent people working check out. Prices are higher than Safeway. Specialty stuff is not as strong as Diablo Foods in Lafayette.

They offer much more of a selection than when they first opened. They definitely have a variety of many different ethnic foods and ingredients at a reasonable price for most of it. For some things their pricing is similar to Safeway, others more like Whole Foods, but for the most part they are reasonable. Especially for a local neighborhood market. I love that the market is open and that they have an amazing selection. Way more than a normal corner store.

A highly underrated grocery store, Monte vista is small but has a surprisingly broad selection of…read moreproduce and ethnic/international foods. The place had a farmers market/Sprouts kind of feel and carried predominantly organic produce. They have almost every type of product but maybe only 1-2 brands for each. I liked that there were many plant-based options, from cream cheese to frozen meals or sweets, but I was disappointed that they specifically didn't have nondairy yogurt which is one of my go-to's for breakfast. Almost everything is organic, and the price reflects that; a regular 15oz can of tomato sauce was $4. Besides that, it seems like a safe and convenient place to shop with their wide selections. The staff member helping at check-out was also very friendly.

Nevertheless, I had to write a review that serves this Grocery Outlet Bargain Market, justice! To sum them up in 1 word- amazing! I have been to countless Grocery Outlets all across California and this location by far surpasses them all! Some of the freshest produce I've ever seen at a G.O; and the prices unheard, unseen, unknown of in today's day and times. The cranberry juice in the pic $9.99 for a 24-pk, cotton candy grapes and Nellie's free range eggs 1.99... dragonfruit 2.99 and mango .99. The Friendly's ice cream, a very delicious .99.

Their shelves are always stocked with high quality food (that's packaged nicely) and their displays are super cute- they make use of all of the space while keeping the aisles accessible (and the traffic moving). They're quick to make sure I have the support I need and always make sure I am able to reach the register and carry my bags to the car.
