    I just wanted bread and some drinks. lol

    I love Trader Joe's, but I hate that the vanilla ice cream is now $7.99! It's so wild to see that price. Happy to have found a new tequila to use in my margaritas.

    Store was clean and employees I interacted with were helpful. I was looking for the Irish Butter chips and after visiting 4 other stores I found them! I wish TJ had the ability to tell me where inventory I'm looking for is located.

    The Baseline: For a grocery store it must have a wide selection of items, the produce/bakery/meat selections must be fresh, the store aisles need to be clean/organized, the traffic flow must be logical, the prices must reflect the value, and the service from staff must be good. Food: This is Trader Joe's so it is going to have a variety of grocery items not considered standard by major grocery chains. The items I come to expect to be available from a TJ store are typically there and I get some good finds. On my visit all the produce items and meat items looked fresh and of good quality. The things I probably didn't need but were fun to find were bought. I got ears of corn, flowers, and half-n-half which were of good quality. Service: All the store staff were friendly and helpful looking for items we came in for. Register check was quick and efficient. Ambiance: The aisles were cleaned and stocked, well organized on my visit. The flow of the aisles are in a grid were functional to the flow of traffic making selections. Price: Trader Joe's has some really good value items but it is based on quantities with a 2-3 member household ratio. I had no complaints about my bill.

    My preferred location is the Trader Joe's near USC. I went to this location out of convenience since I was in the area. Perhaps it was because I went on a weekend but it was super crowded and the layout it's suitable for when it is. The customer service is friendly and the lines move quickly but I'll avoid shopping there in the future.

    Trader Joe's is one of my favorite spots for quick, healthy meals. I love the variety of freshly packed salads they offer--always flavorful and convenient. Their frozen meals are equally impressive, with so many tasty options to choose from, perfect for when I need something easy but delicious. The customer service at this location is top-notch, with friendly and helpful staff that make shopping a breeze. Plus, the store is always clean and well-organized, which makes the whole experience even better. Trader Joe's never disappoints!

    I love this TJ! It's not crowded, there are lots of cashiers, all very friendly, and it's in a good plaza with other places to eat or shop.

    The cashier took someone ahead of me from a different line despite me being next. Very unprofessional.

Came to get the Friday pizza special. One topping pizza for 12 dollars. Good customer service. Clean store. Pizza took less time than originally thought. I had time to do some browsing. There were some good 50% sales on selected items. Can't beat the number of hot bar and pre made food to go available. Beautiful cases of pre made food too. Huge selection of cold single drinks. I haven't even checked out the whole store yet! I ate outside at a nice clean table. Very convenient! Highly recommend this location.

There's tons of parking and eateries around the corner. This Whole Foods is large and spacious. There's a variety of baked goods and prepared foods ready to grab and go. There's a pizza counter where slices are sold, and sandwiches and sushi freshly made. However, their freezer section where the ice cream is held doesn't seem to be working well. The ice cream containers have ice on them, as if they're not being kept at the proper temperature. I mentioned that to the checker and she agreed. She also mentioned several other Whole Foods locations with the same issue. Other supermarkets don't have that problem. I don't understand why Whole Foods doesn't resolve it. Otherwise, we enjoyed the ice cream selections that we did buy.

I remember falling in love with the produce department because having access to radicchio, endive, watercress, sorrel, heirloom tomatoes (before they became crummy), morel mushrooms and Crenshaw melons was cooler than ice cream at the north pole. My tiny kitchen became my creative space for some tasty meals and to wow my friends. I had my share of failures too, but they only inspired me to keep trying. This Gelson's has been open for quite a while but it's a longer drive from my house by maybe 4 or 6 minutes. That time isn't a deal breaker, it's a convenience thing. It's Gelsons, in Manhattan Beach. You won't find amazing prices here, but you will find some of the best, quality, unique and prime groceries, products and items you never knew you needed. There's a price for this and if you're sensitive, you might be better served at another grocery store. Service was friendly and straightforward. I didn't have to circle the parking lot for a space or squeeze into one meant for a tiny car. Carts were packed full and easily accessible. Shelves stocked full, bakery packed with colorful sweets likely to satisfy anyone's palate and a deli, complete with pre-made packaged delights to make your meal prep easy peasy. Gelson's is in my rotation, especially when I need something special...or even when I don't.

    What a fantastic store. They have EVERYTHING! And, definitely many choices of items not found in…read moreregular stores. A self-service food salad bar which is stocked with everything you desire. A bakery with so many temptations. Many specialty kiosk areas. I went in for chopped liver, Jewish dill half sour pickles, and rye... plus several other impulse buys. It is so clean, orderly, well stocked. Employees are extremely helpful. Love it!
