I cannot believe what happened this week at the Coachella Aldi. First, let me say for the record…read morethat Aldi has always been a family favorite. Their prices, value, diverse stock and their CONSISTENCY from store to store keeps us coming back time and time again. It is obvious that Aldi has a business model that works and has worked for years. Now, let's address the elephant in the room: someone decided it would be a good idea to break away from the business model and rearrange the store in such a way that a regular Aldi customer is stymied the moment they enter. HALF of the produce section has been removed. A local florist took over the center of the produce aisle with crappy flower arrangements. What's left of the produce dept. is a complete MESS - with product spilling out of badly stacked and damaged boxes, items on the floor, and extra random grocery bags tossed around on top of the fruit. Also, the plastic bag rolls are empty, and a box of plastic trash bags was placed on top of the produce - presumably as a replacement. Throughout the store, sections have been removed and switched into a thrift-store like disarray that makes no sense. Even the alcohol has been moved across the store, and placed closer to the entrance, which is known to increase theft and alcohol use by underage minors. Every section was not simply restocked differently - the very cases themselves were dragged all over the store, so all of the display shelves are coming apart. There are pieces of them falling off everywhere, and most of the price tags are missing or in the wrong place. The 'Aldi Finds' aisle has been completely moved so that it is one side of two aisles all the way from the front to the back of the store - with a nonsensical chips and drinks aisle on the right facing the deals. There is also cleaning and rack equipment strewn about everywhere - blocking aisles, and causing hazards to shoppers. NOTHING about what they've done to this store makes sense. In addition, whoever the lady is that works the normal day shift is rude, inconsiderate, and yells at customers and tells them which self-checkouts to use, even though there is a green light to indicate which self check is available. She insists that you use the one SHE directs you to. Also, she heavily enforces limits on purchases until one of her personal friends shows up. THEY are permitted to ransack and hoard as soon as new items are presented. When this store first opened it was a pleasure to shop here - it was our favorite in the Coachella Valley. Now it has become just another knock-off indoor swap meet catastrophe.

The selection of veggies and fruits is unbeatable, as well as the selection of *most* things. The prices, oh the prices, if only we can get these prices in LA. I can't recall anything being more expensive than a Ralph's, Vons or Smart & Final. The only section that could be better as far as selection is alcohol. Don't expect super high-end stuff. But it's a *decent* selection nonetheless. Service - be patient; you're saving money because they save money by not hiring as many people as they should. Also you must bag your groceries. This presents a bit of a challenge for folks like me who are disabled (I can stand but am a fall hazard). Ambiance - um it's a generic grocery store. Don't expect bachata music to dance to while you pick the spiciest peppers. 5 stars for selection and prices 3-4 stars for service (still better than your avg Ralphs!)

If you need alcohol DO NOT SHOP HERE!

I'm a Sparks driver, your curbside team that brings out orders are amazing. Truly great workers…read more For them 10/10. The employees that work inside is a hit or miss. There's an older lady cashier who is SO EXTREMELY RUDE. Telling people not to come to her line if they have heavy items. It was a 13 pack of soda. She continued complaining about the way the gentlemen infront of me in line stacked his groceries on the conveyor belt (literallly nothing wrong with it). She said the belt wouldn't move because he over packed it....as it continued to move just fine and she complained. Not all of them, but generally your younger staff is so incredibly rude. I guess I understand how Uber or Sparks drivers can be annoying (I've seen rude ones that are oblivious to their surroundings), but I am personally NICE ASF when I visit your store, so to get attitude from employees is WILD. I'm not ever asking for anything unreasonable. I deliver groceries and I still have mine delivered to me because it's not worth entering the store.

The store is on the northeast corner of Jackson and Avenue 50. {If you don't want to have heart palpitations, come in from Calhoun Street going south and turn right on Avenue 50, and right into the lot on the corner of Jackson because the cars from the two two-lane roads hustling at that Stop Sign are enough to raise your blood pressure a lot.} We saw displays of the most beautiful produce inside the door. Plump oranges, zucchinis, broccoli, cucumbers and many other items show off their freshness and aroma. We found cucumbers, zucchini, carrots and the most fragrant strawberries ever. A bottle of Pico Pica hot sauce rounded out the purchase. Their food truck is parked on the southeast corner of their lot. @elowtitos @lgdesertstore We ordered two carne asada mulitas, a burrito, and loaded fries. Everything was delicious. The staff in the store as well as the food truck are so lovely. My husband was using a walker and everyone in the store was super helpful.
