We traditionally buy our smoked turkey for Thanksgiving from Lazy Acres, the Mary's natural brand…read moreand it is always a hit. My daughter and I were in the area and wanted to really browse the store. They had a beautiful selection of fresh meat and seafood, the prepared foods items were piled high and looked appetizing in their case, and produce was fresh and good looking. They also carry many top organic and gluten free food brands, health and wellness products and freshly prepared juices at the juice bar. They even offer freshly baked cookies in the bakery, kept on a warming tray. The aroma was crazy! This time we decided to grab lunch from their hot and cold bar. It was the only miss, in my opinion. The roast vegetables, baked herb chicken drumsticks, and tofu peanut slaw were moist and fairly tasty, but the entree selections featured an Asian theme and they were mediocre - spicy Asian vegetables, beef and broccolini, kung pao chicken, whitefish in sauce. My daughter chose mostly from the salad bar and she enjoyed hers. Their poke bar looked more appetizing, but I don't think I would return for that. The only other negative was no toilet paper in any of the women's restroom stalls.

I highly recommend their build-your-own poke bowl and hot bar. The poke bar has soooo many yummy options, and everything tastes really fresh. There are so many choices here, so it's nice when you want something healthy but still want variety. Staff are also very nice. A big plus is that they offer 10% off for CSULB students, staff, and faculty!

This Whole Foods is packed with employees! They were so kind and helpful!…read more Whole Foods has a special every day of the week and I came here on a Friday for their oysters, pizza, and sushi! I went straight to the seafood counter and was helped by a guy (I wish I got his name) but he explained to me the different type of oysters they had and what they're known for. I settled for 2 different kinds and got 6 of each for a total of 12 for $12! He asked to give him some time while he shuck them so I went to do more shopping. I went to the pizza counter where they have a whole 1 topping pizza for $12 but it was a 40 min wait since I had a few customers in front of me. I didn't have the time to wait so I went to the sushi counter and grabbed 2 packaged sushi rolls. Each was $11.99 but it was buy 1, get 1 50% off so it was a good deal! I will definitely be back for more oysters! They were fresh and great deal!

Seldom do you wait to Check-Out, as 80% of floor staff is trained on Registers to get you on your way. Many shoppers have shared with me they have a G.Outlet closer to them (Lomita/Redondo) but come to Jorge's store due to service, ease of parking, efficient Staff and cleanliness of his Store. He and his staff escort suspicious/unruly shopper immediately out the exit as well. Their butcher section has the best Ribeye steaks, air chilled chicken and local caught sustainable cod fillets!

Food: this has been on my bucket list! Got the Strawberry Glaze Skin Smoothie (aka Hailey Bieber),…read moreArugula with Fig salad side, and Chicken Roti sandwich. I had them make the smoothie without collagen as that is a beef product. It literally took 21 minutes on a Wednesday. It was ok, a little sweet with the stevia. I asked how many calories and they wouldn't tell me. Only that it's meant as a "meal replacement " and is between 500-1200 calories. Oof! I'll stick with the healthy superfruit smoothie from Toastique. The salad was good with the figs standing out and the sandwich was delicious. Lots of avocados. Ambiance: everyone is there for the prepared foods and smoothies. The grocery aisles were fairly empty. There's a few bar stools by the entrance so we ate there but most take to go. Parking: very small light with complimentary valet. Luckily we got a spot. Note there's a 30 minute parking limit! Price: $53 for the above 3 items.

Some faves: - Thao's booth for Asian vegetables such as marunggay (moringa) leaves, chili leaves, sweet potato leaves, Italian and Thai basil, different varieties of bittermelon as well as bunches of the leaves, baby tomatoes, squash flowers, etc. when they are in season. Once I found sugar cane stalks there. - Arnett's for fruit, with many sample bins. (Personal request: please take a fresh toothpick for each sample, don't double dip.) - Multiple vendors with strawberries and mixed berries year-round - The grower with Japanese produce like komatsuna, shiso leaves, etc. that also supplies the Japanese markets. - Organic avocado vendor with bins at different price ranges - Kettle corn vendor - Salsa vendor (the best salsa, and you can specify spice level) - Hot sweet potato and roasted corn vendor (the sweetest!) - Frog's organic bakery (bread loaves and pastries from Gardena) - Tamale booth (I like the individual tamales from the Saturday vendor and the plate combo from the Tuesday vendor) - The lemonade vendor with large clear plastic barrels of combinations like watermelon lemonade, strawberry lemonade, etc. - Mashees Matcha has an awesome banana cream matcha (maybe seasonal?) Shout out to the guy at the Information Booth for the tip on this one!

A local sustainability company that sells everything eco-friendly? Are you kidding me?! I had the…read morehonor of discovering Feel Good Market at the LA Fair, and it truly felt meant to be. I've visited other sustainable companies that still use unnecessary packaging and plastic, but not here. There's none of the extra wastefulness, everything is natural, thoughtfully made, and environmentally friendly. So far I've purchased reusable makeup remover pads, a reusable sponge, reusable produce bags, body soap with a pouch, body oil, deodorant, toner, makeup remover, face wash, a candle, sunscreen, and shampoo and conditioner bars. The best part? I get to refill the containers instead of throwing them away. How amazing is that? Christy and Catherine are so friendly, kind, and knowledgeable. Christy, the owner, is amazing and I could talk about sustainability with her for hours. I've been searching for a company like this and I can't wait to go back and stock up on even more products.

It really causes me to spend more but hey...I opt to eat my four slower, savor the taste and just pray for a great day in consulting to cover the damage. I visit at least 4 times a week. The membership pays off for this reason and this reason only. I would recommend it if you're only passing through. That is, unless you only come for smoothies. They have a membership for that too. I love the tonic bar. Not all the flavors can be recommended for taste. Some are just bland but offer good health benefits. Do be sure to ask which smoothie tastes best if you're coming to have a flavor experience. They need a chocolate smoothie...they have yet to add one. CONS: they NEED MORE SMOOTHIE PROMOS FOR MEMBERS.

I worked at Erewhon nearly a decade ago and have been a shopper ever since…read more.. Let's start with what should be obvious. Produce. Erewhon's advantage here is that they can get produce from small, local farms. Read the label, but outside of that, avoid the produce. Their tonic bar is ahead of the game. Most smoothies are sugar bombs disguised through "healthy" ingredients, but if you can read through them like Peyton Manning at the line, you can find one's worth ordering. The cafe is 80% hit and 20% miss. From the taquitos to the buffalo cauliflower...they pack a punch. But then you get the chicken pot pie, and you'll learn to appreciate the frozen ones. When it comes to grocery items, they are always a step ahead. Whether you want Jose Andres potato chips or chicken noodle soup the way abuelita makes it, they've got you covered. Really, Erewhon is a store with value if you have the eye to spot it. If you want to hate on it because influencers love to post "and we're at the most expensive grocery store in the world," or you choose to love it because you feel special for being able to afford it, you're wrong either way. Find your reason to appreciate it because it meets your needs.

This is a larger one. But the same thing goes for this one as I would say for any other Erwhon:…read more Just another overpriced Erewhon. To be fair, the prepared food is pretty good and it's clean with a nice ambience. The service is usually pretty good as well. The downside is that it's very very very very overpriced. I don't like using repetition of words like this, but in this case, I think it's relevant. It's nice in terms of window shopping but most things in there I would never buy because they are not worth the price in my opinion.

And she explained what I had use and actions I had taken were what more or less made a graveyard of my plants. Btw a patio of boxes. I will get more supplies from Armstrong. I loved the Addams Family, but I am tired of having their image. To summarize - I am a tech person - I see quality and detail and I am very very impressed with the Armstrong - Pros system. If all are like Daniella I will look to that system for communication, professionalism, quality and SUCCESS.
